BIG TOM mock test super helpful!

Big Tom driving school was a massive help to me in sorting a mock test. My call was answered and Tom got back to me swiftly, and we arranged a mock test. It was crucial for me to have a mock test in the Boston Driving test centre to get prepared, and he accommodated this. The mock test was great help, highlighting what I needed to work on in preparation for the driving test. He also gave me a lot of tips regarding that specific driving centre, printed out a lot of information regarding the test to help me too. And was even kind enough to drop be back at the train station when we finished. His car was easy to operate, and had lots of additional gadgets to see around the car easily.

Highly recommended – a fantastic first lesson experience

I’d had around 5 or 6 lessons with another instructor and really couldn’t get the hang of driving. I was constantly stalling, found junctions really difficult, and generally wasn’t looking forward to lessons. I decided to try one lesson with Tom, and straight away his approach made me feel relaxed and confident. In that very first lesson I was able to successfully navigate junctions, roundabouts, and traffic lights – things I’d never managed before! I walked away feeling genuinely happy and excited for more lessons with Tom. Highly recommend!

From the very first lesson I was on the road practising to drive, having never had a driving lesson before, and I progressed really well. Tom's professionalism enabled me to learn without constant doubt or interruption, and for that I am grateful. Highly recommend.

Brilliant

Tom got me from not being able to move a car to driving confidently in a short course. Tom was always patient, understanding and punctual. Would recommend 100%. Every lesson was to my pace and i never felt rushed.

Patient, knowledgeable, friendly and empathetic

I was a very nervous learner driver but I passed first time with help from Tom. He is very knowledgeable, patient and friendly. He offered practical support but also empathised with the stress I was feeling and would adapt the lessons based on my confidence/stress levels.

110% RECOMMEND!!!

Tom was fantastic for the entire intensive course. He made sure that we went through anything I was having difficulties with and helped to get rid of any errors. He was always very friendly and I felt very comfortable in the car with him. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone wanting to learn to drive as within 2 months of me starting my course I passed my driving test which was only delayed due to longer waiting times for an available test. Thank you very much Tom!

Tom Is A Great Instructor

Tom is a great instructor who helped me reach a point where I can pass my test comfortable. I have all the skills necessary and in my first test was on track to no minors or majors until I messed up right at the end. That was entirely on me and does not reflect Tom as an instructor and am confident that in my second attempt I will perform just as well. In addition to gaining the skills i need I also just want to mention how Tom worked with and figured out ways for me to think about things that may have gone against the norm. I am overly rigid in the way I think about things, if I don't have each step of something fully understood and rationalised in my head it confuses me a bit. Once he figured out how to explain things in a way that worked for how I think everything just clicked into place. Top shelf instructor I do recommend for anyone interested in doing intensive courses in the area.
