What We Will Do For You

Des is a fantastic driving instructor. After attempting driving lessons on two occasions in the past, I couldn’t imagine myself driving.

After being recommended by a friend, Des was able to start lessons with me the following week and quickly helped build my confidence and skills on the road.

He is encouraging and supportive which is exactly what I needed, and he always found time to work around my schedule for lessons. Thanks to him, I passed first time! I’m very grateful, thank you Des!

 

I would highly recommend Des @ Deside2Drive to anyone who wants a supportive, professional, and genuinely excellent instructor.
Desmond came to my rescue when another driving instructor/company let me down at the very last minute. From the start,
Des was incredibly responsive, clearly communicating his schedule and how he could fit me in for a few last-minute driving lessons, while also making himself available on my test day.
He even adjusted his diary to accommodate me, which I found hugely considerate and very much appreciated.
I would wholeheartedly recommend Des to any learner drivers. His teaching style is calm, structured, and confidence-building, making it ideal for anyone who wants to not only pass their driving test but also develop safe driving habits for life.
This focus on good habits and road safety was something my examiner also highlighted at the end of my test, which was a real testament to his approach.
Another standout strength of Des is his local knowledge. He knows the roads, the pinch points, the bus routes, and all the subtle details that can make a big difference when preparing for both everyday driving and test routes. This made me feel thoroughly prepared and confident behind the wheel.
Thanks to Des’s guidance, I passed my driving test with a clean slate — zero minors — and I couldn’t be happier.
I would highly recommend Des @ Deside2Drive to anyone who wants a supportive, professional, and genuinely excellent instructor.

I got referred to Des when frantically searching for another instructor after being let down by a local driving school, and I had a very small window for learning anything at all before my test which was 10 days away at that point.

Des didn’t shy away from the challenge, and assured that he could take on my case in Purley, despite being Bromley based.

I could tell from the first lesson the huge difference in the level that Des teaches at, his professionalism and enthusiasm miles away from what I’d previously seen.

My previous instructor had just taken me around the same roundabout for all 3 lessons in an area nowhere near my test centre.

Des took me straight to the relevant area, and taught me everything I know today. I got through my first exam with only one minor and one major (being entirely my fault and an error in my theoretical knowledge not Des’ teaching), then rebooked another exam, which he also was a massive help in finding, 2 weeks later and passed with one minor.

If you’re looking for a dedicated driving instructor that is full of vibes, knows what to do in order to specifically help you and actually teach you how to drive, I couldn’t recommend Des more.

I had such a good experience learning to drive with Desmond.
He was always really encouraging and supportive, which helped me build my confidence on the road. He was patient, explained things clearly, and made the lessons really enjoyable.
Thanks to his guidance I was able to pass my test, and I now feel much more confident driving on my own.
 
I’d definitely recommend him to anyone learning to drive!
