Lendrums Driving School

I passed my test first time earlier today after lessons with Adrian! I would really recommend his lessons to someone else - he explained things very well, was patient and always made me feel comfortable in the car. He really helped me build up my confidence behind the wheel - thank you!

I had such a lovely experience with Lendrums and my driving instructor Lisa. She was so lovely and amazing at her job, always making me feel comfortable and confident even when I made mistakes. She was patient, supportive, and made every lesson enjoyable, which really helped calm my nerves and build my confidence on the road. I couldn’t have asked for a better instructor and I’m so grateful for all her help in passing my test. I would highly recommend Lendrums to anyone learning to drive!

What an absolute legend of a driving instructor! I honestly can’t thank Luke enough for everything he’s done for me throughout learning to drive. From the very beginning he was patient, supportive, and genuinely one of the nicest guys I’ve ever met. No matter how awkward or weird my availability was, he always did his best to fit me in for lessons and make things work around my schedule, which I really appreciated. He creates such a calm and comfortable environment when driving, which helped build my confidence massively. He explained everything clearly, stayed patient even when I made mistakes, and always encouraged me to improve without ever making me feel stressed or pressured. You can tell he genuinely cares about his students and wants them to do well. Thanks to Luke’s teaching and support, I managed to pass my test with only one minor, which I honestly never thought I’d achieve when I first started learning. I couldn’t recommend him highly enough to anyone looking for a driving instructor - an amazing instructor!Moreexpand_more

I was taught by Farid, in Southampton! He was great, explained things well and always made me feel comfortable. I am a really confident driver now and it’s all thanks to him! Highly recommend.

My instructor was Mike B. And the entire time I was receiving lessons from Mike I felt well catered too and safe in what I was being taught and how the lessons would progress. Everything from arranging the first lessons up to my test date was very easy and reasonable. I passed my test first try thanks to Mike. Would absolutely recommend to anyone looking to learn.

My instructor was Kaylee. I moved over to Lendrums after a break after my first failure. And I'm so glad I did, Kaylee was amazing. She was very quick to pick up my learning style, and adapted just as quick. We were able to go at my pace, even when Kaylee pushed for me to challenge myself it never felt like we were moving too fast. I'm autistic and very anxious, so it truely was amazing to how quickly Kaylee understood me, and what we needed to work on. Could not recommend more.

Amazing instructor highly reconmend.

I passed my ADI Part 3 first time and I couldn’t have done without my trainer JOHN LENDRUM. He helped me stay calm, plan better lessons, and actually listen to the pupil. On test day, I heard his voice in my head: “Risk management first, then the learning. ” It worked. If you need someone who genuinely cares and knows exactly what the examiner wants JOHN is your trainer. Thank you for everything!

I had lessons with Micheala and it took me a long time to get to grips with driving because I have adhd which affected my concentration a lot. I had many driving instructors before but none of them were as patient as kind. Micheala was very supportive as I navigated the struggles I had. I would recommend Micheala to any one who is looking to learn to drive, she is a lovely person and a very good teacher. Thank you very much Micheala for all your help and support.

I cannot recommend GAZ FROM LENDRUMS enough! I was a very inexperienced learner after experincing lessons with another school, but Gaz has calm and patient approach made me feel at ease from the very first lesson. They have an incredible ability to break down complex manoeuvres into simple, easy-to-follow steps. They didn't just teach me how to pass the test; they taught me how to be a safe and confident driver for life. Thanks to their support and expert guidance, I passed my test on the first attempt with only a couple minors! . If you’re looking for someone who is punctual, professional, and genuinely cares about your success, Gaz is the best choice.

Passed first time with Matt. The lessons were structured to target weak areas and the quality of teaching was high.

I had matt for my auto lessons, started in june 2025 and i’ve passed april 2026, I cannot thank matt enough! I was always very anxious on the road and matt really helped me overcome that. Ive had 2 previous instructors and they really didn’t help the way matt has. Hes a brilliant teacher and I really am from the bottom of my heart so grateful. .

I had a great experience with this instructor. The teaching style was clear, supportive, and very effective. Thanks to their guidance, I passed my test on my very first attempt without making any mistakes, which was a big achievement for me. I highly recommend this instructor to anyone looking for professional and dedicated teaching. Thank you again for your support! .

Passed my test first time with Ehtesham and I'm so grateful for all his help. He was really supportive the whole way through, building up my confidence. I was quite nervous at first but he was always patient and never got annoyed when I made mistakes, which made such a difference. I went from dreading driving to actually enjoying my lessons! I can't recommend him enough, especially for nervous drivers.

Passed my test thanks to Helen! I was a bit nervous learner to start with, but her calm, patient, and encouraging approach helped me built up my confidence behind the wheel. She’s punctual, friendly, and genuinely cares about her students' success.

Thanks to my instructor Çaglar, I achieved excellent results in a very short time. His understanding and patience helped me pass the exam successfully. I highly recommend Çaglar as an instructor.

Would highly recommend Gary who is a brilliant teacher and makes everything very simple and easy to follow. Passed first time with no minors all thanks to him so I would highly recommend.

I highly recommend Ehtesham as an instructor. He helped me go from being very anxious to driving to a confident driver who passed first time. He was always patient and concise in his communication, and always a pleasure to chat with at the traffic lights, meaning most lessons I would come out having actually enjoyed myself!

Gary what can we say 5 lessons and she smashed it. Evie loved her lessons with you and the fact that you tailored her teaching style for her. She enjoyed talking to you during her lessons and found you easy going and was so proud to call you today to say she passed her test. Thankyou again and I’d highly recommend having lessons with Gary who makes you feel at ease.

? I passed my driving test today, and I highly recommend my instructor, Caglar! He is a genuinely great teacher who explains everything in a very simple, easy-to-understand way. If you ever make a mistake, he corrects it calmly and clearly without making you feel stressed. ? Having a two-hour class right before the exam was an absolute game-changer. We went over the test routes beforehand, which made the actual test feel so much easier and gave me the confidence I needed to pass.
