Biography
I have always loved cars and driving from an early age, starting with racing 100cc Karts which gave me the skills of car control. I am a big F1 fan and spend my spare time competing in online sim races which is all in VR and makes it very realistic.
My career before becoming a driving instructor has been working in call centre management and customer service environments, managing teams, and working with individuals at varying skill sets.
During that time, I have learnt to adapt to different individuals learning requirements to help them achieve their goals, a skill that transfers to being a driving instructor. Having taught people to pass their driving tests recently, I felt it was a natural transition to put my passion of driving into practice and share it with others.
I am a friendly relaxed person, who will endeavor to provide fun, educational, and safe driving lessons, in a style that suits your needs and pace of development behind the wheel.

Luci, Crawley, West Sussex
“Passed first time! Gary has been absolutely amazing from start to finish. From the moment I met him he made me feel at ease and always made me feel like I could speak freely and ask questions. Every lesson I felt confident, Gary was constantly reassuring me and led me to a first time pass which couldn’t have been achieved without him. I’m so grateful to have Gary by my side throughout my whole learning experience. So thank you very much.”
