Julie Lavelle all the way!

I can not thank my driving instructor Julie Lavelle enough! She must be the most patient person I know, she goes out of her way to make sure you understand what we are doing, and will put everything into basic laymen’s terms if she has too! I restated learning to drive and specifically asking to have Julie L again!

Thank you so so much!! Trundle

Highly recommend

If I could id give Gareth Denny at M4…

If I could id give the owner Gareth at M4 zero rating. I see plenty of good reviews for others at M4 which is great. The ones who went with them are the lucky ones. Gareth took on our daughter, a block booking. He was so unreliabe. Cancelled lessons with very little notice. Cut them short. No planning with lessons or progress. Even to the point that he told our daughter he'd booked her driving test (which she'd paid for up front) which was a blatant lie! Which only became apparent after checking with the Dvsa. He then went awol. His lies have led to our daughter having to wait another 11 months for a test. And she's now cut her losses and got a decent instructor. A world above Gareth. He's a disgrace. Reported him to Dvsa, who have little authority, unfortunately. Have heard of others where he didn't even turn up on the day of the test!
Steer clear of Gareth. He's the owner / director. It beggers belief.

I can't say how fantastic Rhiannon was

I can't say how fantastic Rhiannon was, absolute perfect driving instructor, to the up most distinction .
Without Rhiannon I think it would of gone pair shaped.
Excellent teacher and a asset to the motoring learning industry.

I would 100% recommend Rachael from m4 motoring. I started with her in August 2021, with no prior driving experience. January 2022 I passed first time. She is so friendly and patient and as long as you put in the effort to drive she will go above and beyond for you in return. The atmosphere in the car is so calm and she will no do nothing, she doesn’t think you are capable of, even if you don’t think you can do. Again 100% recommend her.

I would highly recommend Andy!

Andy from M4M has been very patient with me throughout the whole process. Never once got angry or shouted, he is a very understanding instructor as one should be. Can’t thank him enough, and would highly recommend him.

Andy Stoneley

If you're worried you're a slow learner or that you might ask a stupid question...don't be. With Andy there is no stupid question and he has the patience of a saint. Would highly recommend.

I cannot thank Julie Lavelle enough for helping me to pass my driving test. She is an amazing teacher, and after having stopped and started learning so many times she was the teacher I needed to help me see it through! Thanks to Julie I managed to pass my test with no faults whatsoever. Highly recommend her to anyone!
