Brilliant Driving School!
Alex from the Green Cat Driving School is a brilliant instructor, he is very understanding and patient. I was quite nervous to start driving and thought I would be practicing in a car park for a good few lessons before going on to the road, but within the first lesson, Alex had me driving on the road, something I didn’t think I would have the confidence to do straight away. After that, lessons with Alex were fun but informative and allowed for plenty of self evaluation which really helped me understand the road and see where I needed to improve, he also kept checking up during lessons to make sure I was doing ok. He also sent helpful links and print outs outside of lesson to help with forward planning and in preparation for my test. I am happy to say I passed first time yesterday, something I didn’t believe I would do so soon, but with the support and help of Alex I achieved it and am now driving around safe and confidently! When you drive with Alex, you drive as a team. Thank you Alex!

David Jonker the best instructor there is!
My instructor was David Jonker and he was amazing. I passed my test first time with 4 minors. He prepares you well by giving clear instructions and he clearly knows what he’s doing. My first lesson with David I stalled on my first corner as it turns out I was setting off all wrong. Within 5 minutes I was starting perfectly thanks to his clear instructions and knowledge.

Recommend, recommend, recommend!!
Alex created a comfortable and encouraging atmosphere from the second I got into the car. Extremely patient and knowledgable, I cannot thank him enough for preparing me for my theory and practical. I have passed with only 1 minor. The results for this driving school speak for themselves, don’t hesitate to use Green Cat Driving School. Thank you again Alex!

Amazing ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I’ve been driving with Dave for the past couple months and it’s been better than I could’ve imagined. He’s a dead nice bloke, very easy to get on with and a great teacher as well. Couldn’t fault him if I tried. No impatience at all and willing to show you anything any number of times without question. Couldn’t reccomend more. 👍👏👏

David Jonker took me from an anxious driver to confident driver!
David Jonker took me on board as an anxious driver, as I felt that I had left it too late to pursue driving lessons at 24. Through lessons, David provided simple and effective teaching and made me feel at ease on every lesson. I would not hesitate to recommend David, you would be a fool not to go with him. It was a pleasure to talk music throughout our lessons. Thank you for making me the competent driver I am today!

Patient, considerate and professional instructor
Dave’s dedication to his students is unmatched. An incredibly patient, calm instructor - would highly recommend to anyone. I struggle a lot with anxiety and chronic fatigue syndrome, and he always did his best to accommodate my needs in every lesson. I passed first time around, so, thank you again Dave! :)

I was very lucky to have Alex be my driving instructor. I decided to learn in an automatic for the ease and benefits automatic cars provide. Alex is an honest, down to earth kinda guy and will always make the learning environment comfortable and enjoyable. Alex's teaching style is respectful and very supportive. Alex has an incredible knowledge for vehicles, driving tests and so much more! He takes a person centered approach to learners. Throughout my time learning to drive with Alex was fantastic, and I so enjoyed the experiences and skills I gained through learning with The Green Cat driving school. Alex is very approachable and a very friendly person. He makes learning to drive fun but stays focused and on task. When I started learning I was a bag of nerves! However, by the time of my test I was confident and trusted in myself and all the skills Alex helped me gain! And I passed first time! Thank you Alex, if there was going to be anyone to help me pass it had to be you! Cheers!
