5 star review for Rob

5 star review for Rob. Very calm and collected when teaching while keeping you up beat and feeling encouraged.
I couldn’t have asked for a better driving instructor and I know for a fact that I wouldn’t have passed my driving test without someone like Rob to help me get there.
I genuinely can’t give any higher praise to anyone else.

Sagar - calm, knowledgeable teacher

Sagar has been a great driving instructor. He's extremely knowledgeable, pays attention to your weaknesses and looks to improve them / work on them, and will talk you through manoeuvres and mistakes using diagrams and videos which are very helpful. Most importantly, he is always very calm and understanding and always puts you at ease. I have had instructors before who can get quite worked up and frustrated when you make a mistake and that is the worst thing for a nervous beginner. Sagar is always calm and helpful - I would thoroughly recommend him!

5 Star review for Driving Instructor…

5 Star review for Driving Instructor Matt. My daughter was nervous at the start of her lessons but Matt soon put her at ease. She soon started to look forward to her lessons. Matt provided detailed feedback after every lesson so I could keep up to date with my daughter’s progress. I would 100% recommend him as a first class driving instructor.

My driving instructor is Rob Hopkins

My driving instructor is Rob Hopkins, I started with him back in June. He has been so patient with me since I started. He never gets worked up and stays calm every lesson I’ve ever had with him. I have 2 hours a week with him and am I leaning toward being test ready! I am so happy he’s been able to help me in such a short time before I return to University. He’s been worth every penny. His car is always clean and tidy which is an added bonus. You can tell you carefully articulates every route his does with his students for what stage they are with their driving. He also makes sure he has space for me to do a lesson a week which I appreciate greatly! And I couldn’t recommend him enough if you’re in the area!

A very good instructor : SAGAR

Sagar is an incredible instructor; he gave me confidence in my ability to drive, which helped me to drive here with less anxiety. He gives you all the time you need to feel comfortable and clearly explains each guideline. Sagar and Robbie's Driving School are highly recommended by me based on my positive experience with them.

Rob Hopkins driving instructor.

Rob Hopkins is an excellent driving instructor, he is a very calm and collective person, he is great at explaining things to help his pupils understand the rules of the road, he is also great at making people feel comfortable when learning to drive. I have been learning with Rob since April 2023 and I have learnt so much in the time I have been learning with him.

Driving Lessons: Sagar

Sagar was a great teacher, very fun and patient but most importantly takes time to explain everything in detail. Definitely recommend!

Knowledgeable & Prompt Driving School

Over the past 11 weeks I have been having lessons from Mark Emery. He has helped me build my knowledge and confidence over these weeks.

Even with occasional cancellations due to unforeseen circumstances, Mark has been prompt at alerting me of the postponed lesson showing positive communication.

When originally contacting Robbie Driving School, they managed to fit me in the following week on a set day allowing me to easily plan around my lessons.

Rob Hopkins is a patient and understanding driving instructor. He has helped me to learn to drive safely and I have been able to have a double lesson with him every week. I would definitely recommend Robbies driving school to anyone who is wanting to learn to drive and I have enjoyed my experience very much.
