- *5 Stars – Cheers to Shaun, the Northern Driving Legend! **. Where do I even begin with Shaun? The man, the myth, the Leeds United-supporting legend who somehow turned a nervous wreck like me into a confident driver without needing therapy afterwards. From the first lesson, it didn’t feel like a typical driving lesson - no awkward silences, no robotic instructions, and definitely no passive-aggressive clipboard tapping. Instead, it felt like jumping in the car with a very calm mate (who just happened to be incredibly good at getting people test-ready). Somehow, Shaun made every drive feel more like a road trip than a classroom on wheels - just with a lot more roundabouts and slightly fewer service station snacks. What really set Shaun apart is his patience. I mean saint-level patience. I stalling, missed gear changes that nearly summoned a new noise from the car, and once took a wrong turns - and not once did he flinch. Just calmly helped me figure it out, always with a grin and some classic northern wit. It will live rent-free in my head forever. ).He’s got this knack for making everything click. Before I knew it, I wasn’t just ‘doing lessons’, I was genuinely driving. Confidently. Safely. Even parallel parking without tears. That’s a miracle in itself. He gave me so many tips that I can jump into any car and manoeuvre it as an extension of my body! Tips that I now show very experienced drivers who are amazed. And to top it off, when I passed, I swear he looked more chuffed than I did. That’s the kind of instructor Shaun is - he genuinely cares. So if you're looking for someone who'll teach you to drive without stress, with a laugh along the way, and will celebrate your wins like you’ve just scored the winning goal at Elland Road… Shaun’s your man. Thanks for everything, Shaun. You’re an absolute gem. .Moreexpand_more
Louise is amazing! Passed first time and every lesson was fun and progress was always being made. She taught my 2 sisters who also passed first time so she is very good. Really nice woman and always up for a chat and a laugh while still keeping it professional and always learning :).
Shaun has taught all of our family to drive and has always offered a phenomenal service. He is very communicative and responsive. I first met Shaun after googling intensive courses for our eldest daughter in 2014. He was absolutely amazing and after missing her first test due to not having her provisional licence on her, he managed to get her a test 5 days later. In the middle of all of that, my sister passed away. Shortly after, he managed to get my brother in law through his driving test quickly to allow him to get his children to school after they lost their mother. He then passed my eldest son, Jack. Followed by Jamie and Ben, after only a few lessons. He then passed my nephew Morgan, with zero faults. More recently, he passed my son, Sam, two days ago after only 10 lessons and moved heaven and earth to accommodate a driving test cancellation, which Shaun provided the details for. We will be forever grateful to Shaun and his wife for their amazing service and feel incredibly lucky that all of our children have passed with him. Would recommend this company to anyone looking for a caring, genuine instructor. My advice would be to get in there before he retires.Moreexpand_more
Louise has been the most incredible instructor I could have asked for. She was very patient, allowed me to ask questions whenever even if I had already asked them previously and never made me feel silly for being the learner. Very reliable and a top quality instructor who I was very lucky to have teach me.
Shaun is very reliable and professional driving instructor! He thought me everything I needed to know and more to pass my test! And I did it first time! I will recommend him to everyone who wants to learn to drive, young and old! As I myself did it being 45. Took some time, but it was all worth it ? Thank you again Shaun for all your time, knowledge and patience! Best driving instructor ever! ?.
I had Kirsty as my driving instructor, she was amazing, lessons were always organised in advance to benefit me and her, after having a couple of lessons with a previous instructor from a different company I was not enjoying driving and the lessons were very poor, so I got in touch with Kirsty since she taught my sister and I heard nothing but good things about her, and my driving improved drastically, she made sure the lessons were productive and focused on things that I needed to work on the most and helped a lot to calm nerves when it was coming up to my test date, she was truly amazing and would recommend for future learners.
After having a bad experience with a previous driving instructor in London, I contacted Street Drive School and started lessons with Louise. From the first lesson, Louise made me feel comfortable and confident. Louise is calm, reassuring, kind and overall amazing. She made my lessons fun and I didn't expect to pass my test first time. Thank you Louise.
I had Louise as my driving instructor and she made learning how to drive such a fun experience! I was so nervous to start driving and she put all my worries to ease. The lessons were always catered to what I needed to work on and improve and I was always asked if there was something in particular I felt like I wanted to work on. I was well prepared for my practical test by the time it came around and I can’t thank Louise enough for keeping me calm before it. I would highly recommend her!
Shaun is an absolutely amazing instructor, never had previous driving experience and after hearing so many people I know passing with him I have it ago. Makes you feel so comfortable from the first meeting right up until the drive home after passing. Very patient and explains everything clearly so you understand. Managed to pass first time with only 4 minors using all techniques Shaun teaches. Thanks for everything Shaun at street drive, would highly recommend to anyone and everyone.
Kirsty was amazing with me always polite and kind. I found it so easy to learn of her and get better at driving. I couldn’t have asked for a better instructor and will always thank her for that. Lessons wear very organised and professional making it very easy to learn and move on quick. Had a great driving experience with Kirsty and would highly recommend.
