I'd highly recommend Chris. He was great throughout. I'd put off driving for years so was nervous to start but he really put me at ease. He was always patient and calm, and really helped me build my confidence.

Chris is an excellent driving instructor! I put off learning to drive for a very long time as I never thought in a million years I would be able to learn however from my first lesson I was made comfortable and filled with confidence by Chris! Chris has a fantastic teaching style and talks through manoeuvres and makes them really easy to follow and complete! Chris would make sure that each lesson held a section of driving and manoeuvres so that it became second nature! Chris was really patient and would always give reminder and aid when needed. Chris was always very relaxed and calm throughout lessons whilst remaining professional this made me feel at ease throughout my lessons. Chris was very reliable I was doing lessons for two years after I injured my back and had to cancel and rebook my test and Chris never missed or cancelled a lesson and was always on time arriving at the pick up spot. Chris also did his diary on the same day every week and would take your availability every week to ensure he could fit in a lesson when would suit your schedule. Chris has an app that he provides all his pupils with everything you will need to complete your theory test and practice at no extra cost and also provided many materials for revision for completing manoeuvres and how to guides for all aspects of your lessons which I found very useful. Price was excellent! Cheaper than most driving instructors in Dundee with still an entire hour lesson compared to some other instructors who offer 45 minutes! Super grateful for Chris and route 66 driving school they have given me so much freedom after passing my test with only 2 minors!.Moreexpand_more

Chris was absolutely brilliant with me. I came back to learning to drive after a big break and he was calm and kind at all times. He was supportive and always made me feel relaxed. When it came to my test he supported me in going over every tiny detail and I passed as a result. Thankyou Chris!

Our son has done very well with Chris. The one hour lessons have worked well for him and are excellent value. Our son passed first time with one minor fault. We are very grateful to Chris for all the work he has done! Would highly recommend Route 66.

Chris has been a fantastic driving instructor. Always patient, helpful, and excellent at explaining how to improve. I do not think I could have passed without him!

I was learning to drive with this school for over a year and I cannot fault Chris. He has been very helpful and will tell you when you're doing well but also help you improve on areas that you are struggling with. Overall I would recommend Chris and his driving school to anyone wanting to learn to drive.

Chris, is a great driving instructor, so patient and always has a funny story to tell, which helped me relax and made me look forward to our lessons. I was driving for a while so was a confident driver already. However I had my test coming up and thought it would be best to get one. Chris taught me so much that I didn’t even think were needed to be taught to drive on the roads, and thankfully I passed my driving test all down to chris. If you are worried about driving on the roads or not sure what driving instructor to go to, chris is your guy! So down to earth and funny. You’ll be past in no time!

Went to Chris after a few lessons with a different instructor. Instantly felt more confident after my first lesson with him, complete night and day. He explained everything so well, was patient and sometimes was able to show me a different way of doing a certain manoeuvre to see what worked best for me. He was really calm and chatty in the car which helped me feel less anxious and just overall easy to get on with. I liked that lessons were flexible around my schedule and Chris was able to accommodate that. He also gave me a bunch of information about the theory test and how to prep for the practical so overall great value for money and service. If you want to pass first time and be confident behind the wheel, definitely go with Chris - thank you again!
Blaine Anderson
