Jorja passing her driving test with Mark Jordan Driving School in Swadlincote

Jorja-Mai Passed 1st Time

I chose 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐤 𝐉𝐨𝐫𝐝𝐚𝐧 𝐃𝐫𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐒𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐥 after many bad experiences with previous instructors.

Due to my anxiety I find it extremely hard to meet new people and even drive. Phil my instructor came out to meet me before our lessons so I could get to know him before being in a car with him.

I was extremely anxious and terrified of driving due to previous experiences, but Phil has been the best person out there to guide me through it. He was patient with me, understanding and puts me at ease with his laidback demeanour.

He truly is one of the best teachers I could have found. I definitely would not have passed without him. He gave me so much confidence and helped me through my anxiety.

Phil is such a genuine person that it feels easy when driving with him. I couldn’t recommend anyone better… I truly enjoyed my lessons rather than them being a worry or triggering my anxiety.

Laney from Burton passing her driving test with Mark Jordan Driving School

Laney Passed 1st Time

Being faced with an amplitude of driving schools, it was important to find a place with flexible booking whilst simultaneously working through my A levels.

When looking in the reviews I also noted in the comments on how friendly the driving instructors are and couldn't help but feel that it was right choice for me.

Based on my usual reactions I can really struggle when it comes to meeting new people, but as soon as I met Mark my instructor, I was instantly overwhelmed with the kindness that just made it feel like a comfortable, safe space to thrive and exceed with my driving skills.

As I set off into the world of driving I wasn't so sure how I was going to pick up the skills and necessary abilities to become a competent driver.

However, Marks repeated effort to get the process to become second nature, has managed me to pass first time.

As a first time learner I would absolutely recommend Mark Jordans driving school. I know its been a rough road but getting through it with your support made it so much easier and more enjoyable.

Will Passed 1st Time Zero Faults

When I first started to look for driving school in the Branston area Mark Jordan Driving stood out right away with great reviews.

Choosing this driving school was definitely the right choice. I hadn’t drove for a couple of years prior and was originally nervous but Mark my instructor got me right back to where I left off right away!

He helped me understand both cars that I ended up driving.

He was incredibly patient and always helpful when I’d made a mistake or could have done something slightly different.

And with debriefs at the end of our lessons it definitely all payed off.

I can’t thank Mark enough for helping me get my pass with 0 faults and I recommend everyone looking for an instructor to consider Mark Jordan Driving School.

The most important criteria for me when choosing a driving school was finding someone with good reviews and that had availability to have regular lessons.

Another important factor was choosing someone who had teaching methods that worked well for me and made me feel like everything was covered in detail and with lots of practice to make me feel more confident on the roads.

Learning to drive was a lot less stressful than I expected as my instructor Mark was very calm and his teaching style was very structured which I think was very important in helping me to pass my test 1st time with no faults.

I would not hesitate to recommend Mark Jordan Driving School to others who are looking to learn to drive as the consistent and structured lessons help you become a confident and safe driver.

Thanks so much to Mark for helping me so much, it has been a great experience!

My driving experience with Mark Jordan Driving School was one of the greatest experiences especially for me starting off as a very nervous driver and being afraid to be behind the wheel.

My incredible instructor Mark was excellent at putting me at ease and making me feel comfortable whilst driving on the roads. One of the most important factors i was looking for in terms of my lessons was having an instructor who was patient with me, calm and someone who would put me at ease if anything was to go wrong.

I also considered an instructor who helps to give effective feedback whilst consolidating my knowledge of road safety and someone who I could have a laugh with and make driving a more enjoyable experience.

My instructor successfully ticked off all the boxes I was looking for which helped me become the confident driver I am today. As I continued to have lessons it was so different to how I expected it to be in the beginning. I didn’t know what to expect and I believed I couldn’t handle feeling confident on the roads but that all changed for me as I progressed through my lessons making driving a fun and exciting experience.

Mark’s teaching style remained professional and it was well-structured whilst covering the basics and moving towards more advanced driving where I learned new skills and learnt from my mistakes and why.

Whilst on the lead up to my test I really benefitted from the mock tests mark conducted within the lesson. They abled me to gain an understanding of the test and reduced any nerves I was having.

Now driving independently his techniques able me to be safe on the road by giving me simple acronyms to remember which make driving so much easier moving forward.

I highly recommend Mark Jordan Driving to any young individual who feels nervous about learning to drive and to keep a positive mindset throughout.

The most important factor for me was finding an instructor who was patient, friendly, and experienced—someone who could create a comfortable environment where I could learn and feel confident.

I’d previously taken driving lessons several years earlier and had a bad experience that put me off learning to drive. I also wanted an instructor who would provide clear, constructive feedback on my progress. It was important that I felt well-prepared, especially with knowledge of local test routes.

I researched driving schools in the area and Mark was one of the highest rated for a good reason. Learning to drive turned out to be a more enjoyable and less stressful experience than I anticipated. Mark’s calm demeanour and organized teaching style made it easier to stay focused and motivated throughout each lesson.

The teaching methods were excellent with well-structured feedback at the end of each lesson pointing out what I was doing well and highlighting areas where I needed improvement. This approach helped me develop my skills step by step, which made me feel prepared and confident when it came time for the actual test. I would highly recommend Mark to anyone learning to drive. His friendly and patient nature, combined with his great teaching style, made all the difference. Thank you for helping me pass first time.

The most important criteria for me when choosing a driving school was finding an instructor who was friendly, professional and understanding of how it truly feels to be a learner. I wanted somewhere where I’d feel at ease with the nerves I knew would come with driving and where I’d be met with feedback that would push me to be a better driver and reduce my anxiety around driving. Based on this I was recommended Mark Jordan driving by a friend!

I also wanted a place where the feedback given could be visualised in a way that meant I could practice independently with my parents. Mark Jordan Driving provided me this, with weekly driving notes and tasks to improve my driving that I practiced outside my weekly lessons. I also wanted a place that offered 2 hour long lessons, which Mark Jordan offered, as I feel that this amount of time allowed me to truly take in the skills I was taught and made the length of my test feel much more manageable and stress-free.

I was initially very nervous to start driving as I wasn’t entirely sure what to expect but as soon as I had my first lesson with Mark Jordan, I instantly felt calmer and more confident in my ability to progress through my lessons. I worried that I’d have to pick up things too fast and be pushed into driving but I never once felt like that with Mark Jordan, with sufficient mock tests and independent drive I have left feeling happy and safe on the roads, having passed first time with no minors.

My instructor Mark was always helpful and positive throughout my lessons and i never felt out of my comfort zone in what we were doing. His friendly attitude and confidence in me from my first lesson is truly what pushed me to continue even when I doubted my ability. His teaching methods ensured that I was not only test ready but a calm and confident driver overall! I never once felt nervous when questioning something I was unsure about or asking to revise something. My questions were met with professional and constructive feedback, where areas that required improvement were acknowledged and reprimanded.

In particular, I loved how I was able to structure my own lessons as I gained more understanding of driving. I was able to choose areas I wanted to work on and where I felt less confident, with constructive feedback from Mark. By the time my test came up, I felt confident in my ability and Mark’s calm demeanour helped me through my test nerves and any doubts I had.

I would definitely recommend Mark Jordan driving to anyone looking to learn how to drive in an efficient, yet friendly environment. The structured lessons yet flexible approach to driving allowed me to deal with anything that happened on the roads and the constant feedback and encouragement I received was crucial to my first time driving test pass! The quality of the teaching and the supportive, progressive environment that Mark created has allowed me to overcome any nerves I had at the start of my journey with Mark Jordan Driving.

Thank you for everything Mark! I passed with zero faults – something I wouldn’t have believed possible before starting my lessons!

I chose Mark Jordan driving school as Mark was personally recommended as an excellent driving instructor by a family friend. It was extremely important to me when choosing an instructor that they had a modern medium sized vehicle with up to date technology, be reliable, show patience and have an excellent pass rate. Mark Jordan is all those things. He was always on time for my lessons and from day one made me feel at ease which helped with my nerves. Mark is extremely professional but also friendly.
My personal driving journey has had some bumps in the road but Mark kept me focused, adapting his teaching methods and giving me areas to practice on privately. I had weekly driving notes which gave both positive feedback and areas for improvement.
The 2 hour lessons are ideal for consolidating skills and building confidence as nothing is rushed. Mark’s focus is always on road safety and passing a driving test is just the beginning of a skill for life so should not be rushed. I did lots of mock tests which prepared me well for the real thing.
When I passed it was at the right time for me and I feel confident in all aspects of my driving ability.
Thank you Mark for always believing in me. I thoroughly enjoyed learning to drive with you and I am so glad I chose Mark Jordan driving school. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to all my friends.

I wanted someone who could be reliable and who would help me work on my weaknesses. Mark worked lessons around my busy schedule and stuck with me travelling back and forth between uni and home.

I couldn’t recommend Mark Jordan Driving more. Learning to drive was a constant learning curve but lessons showed me the most important thing is just that it is all about experience and dedication.

I was taught by Mark and he helped me feel at ease and altered his teaching methods depending on what worked for me. He could answer every question I had and seemed to know everything there was to know about driving.

His use of an iPad and stopping to go over the best way to tackle difficult situations and acting out scenarios was extremely helpful and useful to understand why I was doing things and not just doing what I was told.

He helped me to build confidence on areas I had previously failed on and always approached it in a positive way. Mark made sure I was reflecting on the drive and wanting my input as well as giving his.

I would 100% recommend Mark Jordan Driving if you want to have driving lessons you can both progress quickly in and enjoy.

The most important criteria for me when choosing a driving school was finding an instructor who was patient, calm, and friendly, while also being professional and constructive with feedback. I wanted someone who could provide a supportive learning environment and who was genuinely interested in helping their students succeed. It was important that the instructor would be understanding and encouraging, making the learning process as smooth and stress-free as possible.

I also prioritised finding an instructor who could offer useful resources and structured teaching methods to ensure I could succeed in both the theory and practical stages of the driving exams. It was important for me to have an instructor who could explain things clearly and provide step-by-step guidance. Additionally, I needed someone who could accommodate my school schedule and extracurricular activities, as I have a busy lifestyle with homework, sports, and social commitments.

Mark Jordan Driving Schools reviews gave me confidence they could deliver what I was looking for.

Learning to drive with Mark Jordan was a lot less stressful than I had anticipated. Initially, I was worried about finding an instructor who could work around my school and activities, and I was concerned that the lessons might be nerve-wracking or awkward. However, Mark exceeded all my expectations. I had imagined driving lessons to be tense and intimidating, but Mark’s calm and friendly demeanor put me at ease from the very beginning. His structured approach and clear explanations helped me build confidence and skills at a comfortable pace. The lessons were always well-organized and focused on making steady progress, which was reassuring.

Mark’s teaching methods were exceptional. His lessons were well-structured and never felt rushed. Key skills were introduced clearly and comprehensively, with each lesson building on the previous one. Mark’s approach was to guide my progress through personal target setting and constant reflection on each drive’s strengths and weaknesses. This method ensured that I was always making steady progress and addressing any areas needing improvement. Mark was patient and never rushed me onto new skills before I was ready, which made me feel confident and well-prepared at every stage.

Mark’s ability to create a supportive and friendly learning environment made a huge difference in my driving journey. He was always patient and understanding, which helped build my confidence on the road. His professional yet approachable manner ensured that I felt comfortable asking questions and seeking clarification whenever needed. The constant reflection and well-defined goals set at the start and end of each lesson made sure I was always making observable progress. Mark’s dedication to his students and his passion for teaching were evident in every lesson.

Thank you so much for your time, support, and teaching, Mark! You have been amazing!

When I was looking for a driving school, I wanted someone trusted with a good reputation for being friendly and providing great results. After reading reviews and hearing from previous pupils I chose Mark Jordan Driving for this reason.

Having previously had lesson a few years prior with other instructors, I was anxious to start learning to drive again.
However, having Mark as my instructor immediately put me at ease as he started from the basics and slowly built up the skills required again. During this process he always put what I thought I needed to work on at the forefront of our lessons, and helped me to understand why I would struggle with certain situations.
Even when continuous overthinking of new skills would cause me to lose track of the basics ,which we had nailed weeks before, he always explained it calmly in a way that I would understand.

I definitely recommend Mark Jordan Driving, especially to anyone who feels anxious about driving. I passed my test first time and feel much more confident in driving than I thought I would at the start of this process.

When looking for a driving school, it’s important to look for who locally to you has the best reviews. I moved to the area I live now a few months before I started my lessons so I didn’t have anyone to ask for a word-of-mouth recommendation so instead I looked out for which driving instructor I would see driving around the area the most as I knew this would give me an indication as to which instructor would know the roads that I would eventually be driving on regularly the best.

I saw Mark Jordan Driving Schools cars the most so looked them online and read the reviews, which made my decision.

Growing up I was always adamant that I would never be able to drive even on my first lesson I was so anxious to even sit in the driver’s seat as I was so convinced that I just wouldn’t be able to do it; however very much to my surprise after my first lesson with my instructor, Richard, my attitude toward driving had completely changed, although I was still very much a nervous driver in the beginning, I knew that driving would eventually be something that I could do and be good at. Richard was extremely patient with me and very understanding when it came to the initial nerves of driving, he encouraged me to go a little bit further every lesson, whether that would be going into a higher gear or going a little bit faster.

At the start of each lesson Richard would give me a brief on what we were going to practice so when it came to actually doing it, I already had some understanding of what to do. Richard would also find a way to personalise something to help me stick to it; an example of that is when I would forget to put the car into first gear after stopping and then moving off again, Richard gave me a line from my favourite film to tell myself when I was coming to a stop to remember to put the car into first gear. I will definitely be recommending Mark Jordan Driving School to anyone looking to learn how to drive due to the excellence and expertise of all of the instructors.

I chose Mark Jordan Driving school through a recommendation.

I was quite nervous to drive but my instructor Mark put me at ease straightaway, enabling me to make quick progress.

He was completely reliable, which was very important, and the 2 hour lessons which he offered allowed me to really develop my skills.

His demonstrations and phrases like ‘tyres and tarmac’ are things I will remember for a long time as a driver.

I would without any hesitation recommend Mark Jordan Driving school.

I chose Mark Jordan Driving because they were recommended to me and they had an excellent reputation for reliability and first time pass rate.
It was also important to me to learn in a medium sized, new vehicle which would give me experience with the modern tech now found in most cars.

I didn’t know how I would feel on my first lesson but Mark my instructor explained everything clearly, step by step putting me immediately at ease.
The two hour lessons allowed me to consolidate the skills taught and build confidence as the weeks went on.

Mark was always on time and had a reassuring style of teaching whilst allowing me to choose the areas I wished to focus on. He encourages his students to choose the level of instructor input increasing independent thinking as the lessons progress.

I would recommend Mark personally as a driving instructor,
he is professional but friendly and I felt completely safe on the road from my first lesson. I thoroughly enjoyed learning to drive with him.
Thank you Mark for helping me pass first time.

Mark Jordan Driving School has helped me immensely to become a confident driver, originally being nervous and having to switch between instructors midway through my learning due to unfortunate circumstances but they have been there to help me every step of the way and work through it and adapt to my unique situation in short notice.

I would highly recommend this school to anyone who is looking to get into driving lessons, the 2 hour lessons they provide instead of 1 hour lessons are extremely helpful in getting the most out of each lesson.

A big thanks goes out to Richard who was very patient with me and helped me get over the finish line to finally pass my test, they’ve been incredibly helpful and provided clear instructions with a positive attitude all the way through the process and made me a really confident driver.

Thanks for everything!

Learning to drive has been such a journey for me.

I had so many emotional and mental battles to overcome.

In the past I had been with so many different instructors and never felt i could connect properly so i always gave up.

So looking for an instructor this time around i knew what i needed to be able to feel comfortable being myself, however emotional and to feel understood in the way i processed information, which i know wasn’t the same as most people!

Mark my instructor totally welcomed me in all of that. Some lessons i was up, and some i was a little down, I felt totally comfortable just being me.

Mark has a great personality with a quirky sense of humour.. He always made me feel as though i could do it even when i doubted myself.. The atmosphere was always very professional but joyful at the same time

Mark really had an understanding that everyone learns differently and really helped me find what Learning method worked for me, Thats so important for anyone Learning to drive. I also have alot of responsibility so i absolutely loved the 2hr set time slots weekly, I knew exactly what time and day my lessons were every week.

Learning to drive has been such an amazing journey for me. Its broken down so many barriers and given me such confidence in areas i didn’t know i lacked!

It’s truly been an experience i will never forget. To be a student of Mark Jordan Driving School has been an absolute pleasure, I would 100% reccomend to anyone young or mature Learning to drive to choose this school, Mark was committed, so encouraging, professional and punctual week in week out. Im forever thankful i chose you!

Amazing experience! I was worried when I started to look for instructors because of the huge demand and waiting lists that came about because of the covid pandemic.

I thought I wouldn’t be able to find a good driving instructor, however I was completely wrong.

Mark Jordan Driving School far exceeded my expectations. They have been nothing but professional, punctual and supportive! I will be recommending everyone to use their instructors from now on because of my own personal experience.

From the very first lesson when I first sat in the car with Richard my allocated instructor, I knew he would be an incredible instructor. The first thing I noticed was how patient he is and how comfortable he makes his pupils. Whenever I felt nervous or unsure about something he would explain things in a digestible way that would ease my nerves.

He gave me the confidence to drive safely which has stayed with me after passing my test. I always looked forward to my driving lessons and this was because of the confidence which he instilled in me.

I am very glad that Richard was my instructor, as well as someone who I had the pleasure to have friendly and interesting conversations with, whilst doing my lessons.

I was super anxious to start learning to drive so when i started looking for lessons the most important thing was to have an instructor who would be patient and supportive.

After reading the reviews i had to pick Mark Jordan Driving. I had Mark as my instructor and he couldn’t have been a better teacher 🙂 super friendly and chatty, i was able to take things at my own pace and have a choice in what i wanted to work on.

If i was anxious he would always try and understand what was making me panic / overthink and would try different things to help whether this was going over roundabouts again and again or putting on his music playlist! he also made sure if we were doing something new to explain in detail what we would be doing beforehand and answer any questions i had which made me feel so much more comfortable and confident.

Having 2 hour lessons was also very beneficial because if i was struggling with something i never felt rushed or like i hadn’t achieved what i wanted to at the end of the lesson.
I definitely recommend Mark Jordan Driving. i passed first time and feel confident to drive independently. i’ll have many memorable and funny phrases going through my head to help me when i drive now!!

Having started looking for a driving instructor to start after the disruption caused by the COVID pandemic restrictions, I was keen to find an instructor who could make my time and money count and who wasn’t keen to cash in on the increased demand.

For me, the most important criteria when selecting an instructor was that they were patient, calm, amiable and professional with students whilst constructive with feedback, and keen to persevere with their students.

Additionally, I was looking for an instructor who could provide useful resources and structured teaching methods to succeed in both the theory and practical stages of the examinations and who could be accommodating to my learning commitments at university.

Having been taken under the wing of the man himself, Mark Jordan, I am pleased to say that Mark has gone above and beyond to deliver on all my requirements during my time under his tuition and has made learning to drive after COVID a lot less stressful than I anticipated.

Going into my lessons, I was worried that it would be difficult to find an instructor who was flexible enough to work around my studying and assignments. I was also anticipating nervy, improvised lessons with an instructor who might be difficult to build a rapport with. Fortunately for me, Mark was none of these.

Mark, has been flexible enough to work around me studying at university, graduating, and starting my first graduate job all throughout my time under his tuition all whilst waiting times for tests have been at their longest. Mark has persevered with my learning and supported my development right until the end despite changes to my routine and availability. All in all, Mark has allowed me to build a routine that allowed for regular lessons despite changing circumstances and has been keen to work with me for as long as required.

His delivery of lessons has never felt rushed either. Key skills have been introduced clearly and comprehensively in a structured manner with my progress being guided by personal target setting and constant reflection of each drive’s strengths and weaknesses with Mark. By taking this approach it felt like Mark was never rushing me onto new skills before I was ready. At the same time, the constant reflection between me and Mark and working through the well-defined goals set at the start and end of each lesson made sure I was always making constant, observable progress whilst addressing the areas of my driving in most need of improvement at that time.

Finally, Mark has been a pleasure to work with and has made learning to drive an enjoyable and rewarding experience.

Calm, friendly, supportive, and outgoing, Mark has been easy to get on with whilst, more importantly, being fair and constructive with his feedback. At no point has Mark ever been patronizing, impatient or rude, and it always felt like Mark always had my back during the occasional instance where mistakes were made (they happen to everyone!). Mark’s teaching style allowed those mistakes to be quickly repurposed into a useful piece of learning rather than leveraged as something to ridicule or insult me with.

All in all, learning to drive with Mark has been an enjoyable, rewarding, and stress-free experience. I highly recommend him as a driving instructor for anyone looking for an instructor to get them on the road!

Thank you for your time, support, and teaching Mark and all the best for the future! You have been outstanding!

I chose Mark Jordan after reading the reviews after I had a bad experience with my first instructor, and let’s just say the reviews don’t lie.

I have always been a nervous driver and always dreaded every lesson and my instructor knew that, he would always be calm and have a lot of patience, he would always try to ease the nerves. I thought I’d never be able to drive but with the help of Mark Jordan Driving School and my instructor Richard, I was able to overcome that and passed my test.

After each lesson we would discuss what needed to be improved on and what would we want to do next lesson and how much progress was actually made during the lesson, he always encouraged any questions and always answered them in detail making sure I understood. Even when I made mistakes he wouldn’t get angry, he would always help me solve whatever problem I was having at the time.

I highly recommend Mark Jordan Driving School they’re very professional and adjust to your needs, they’re helpful and will work around you. They’re very calming and patient so even if you struggle with anxiety or nerves because of driving as I did, this is the place to go.

When I first booked with 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗸 𝗝𝗼𝗿𝗱𝗮𝗻 𝗗𝗿𝗶𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 I had no idea what to expect.

I had heard from friends that all of 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 driving instructors lost their temper and made them feel guilty for all of their mistakes so i was definitely bricking it for my first lesson.

But my experience here at 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗸 𝗝𝗼𝗿𝗱𝗮𝗻 𝗗𝗿𝗶𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 was far from the horrible stories i had heard. My instructor Richard was as good as a driving instructor gets and had both experience and an excellent protocol when it came to teaching, he ticked all of the boxes and was not only friendly but patient and honest.

Now the biggest thing that I assume most people will think when they first look at this driving school is the price, there are many other driving schools in the area that are cheaper but the service I received exceeded the price. And the way that Richard taught me to drive probably even saved me money in the long run. Not only that but he is a very honest guy and wouldn’t try and run my pockets dry and only suggested what would be necessary in order to get me from where i started to where I am today. 22 Driving hours later and a full licence, who could ask for better?

Richard was really the catalyst that sparked the swiftness of my driving. Learning to drive scared me at first, every time I went out I would be worried about what could happen and I spent my time doing what I felt would be what other drivers would want me to do rather then doing what is needed of me. I forgot that I was learning. But with time and with conversations he helped me and slowed things down to the point where I could learn way more efficiently.

This was the polar opposite of what I expected, I thought that I would be rushed into things that I didn’t feel confident on. Now there is a fine line between pushing out of your comfort zone and going too far and Richard managed to find this zone with me within just a few hours. He taught me what it was to be a good driver and I intend on keeping his lessons with me forever. His teaching methods were so well made and so well thought about. They were efficient and well made. He also taught me at a pace that was good for me. Not only were the teaching methods great he was also a fun genuine guy.

I couldn’t rate this driving school any higher to be honest, I wouldn’t be in the position I am today without them. Many thanks to 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗸 𝗝𝗼𝗿𝗱𝗮𝗻 𝗗𝗿𝗶𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 and to Richard my instructor.

Richard absolutely delivered on both of these. I always felt encouraged to ask questions, and if I ever had trouble getting my head around a concept, Richard would able to explain it in as many different ways as I needed, be it through words or drawing diagrams on his iPad.

–

Having 2 hour lessons was very helpful as it ensured we could spend as long as I needed on questions, plus it often enabled us to drive further out of town for more variety in routes. Richard’s lessons would finish with a discussion of how they went and we’d use that to decide what we wanted to work on in the following lesson. This ensured that every lesson had a goal in mind, so whether it was spent tackling something new or just honing the current skill set, we were always able to see some improvement over the previous week.

–

As Richard would write up these notes and email them to me, I could read and watch videos in preparation for the next drive. This written log of my progress also meant that even after having to miss a few months of lessons due to the early 2021 lockdown, when lessons resumed it was easy to pick up exactly where we left off. Between the flexibility in timeslots and Richard’s expert guidance, lessons were never an inconvenience and I always felt like I got my money’s worth.

I’m glad I chose Mark Jordan Driving School and would recommend it to anyone else considering learning to drive.

Really pleased that we chose Mark Jordan Driving School for my son Charlie’s driving lessons. Great communication before and during lessons. Richard Charlie’s instructor was very patient with Charlie and went over things as many times as Charlie needed.

Excellent feedback each week with a copy sent via email from Richard for him to look at. It was great to know that Charlie’s lessons were at the same time each week.

Richard was always punctual, patient and calm during the lesson and Charlie thoroughly enjoyed his experience with Richard and Mark Jordan Driving School.

Would definitely recommend Mark Jordan Driving School and Richard as an Instructor.
