“I recently passed my driving test having used ELITE and their instructor Matt. He was a great instructor, with patience and great technical knowledge that helped explain the processes behind an action and your decision making. I enjoyed his company during lessons, and through his teaching I was able to learn all of the detail and manoeuvres to help me pass the exam and go on to drive by myself. I thank him and ELITE for making that possible.”

I was very nervous after having a bad experience with another instructor previously, but Matt build up my confidence gradually to the point where I’ve just passed my test, which I never thought I would achieve. I would especially recommend him to anyone from a science/data background, as the way he teaches is very methodical and helps you to really understand how to control the car. Thank you Matt!”

He explains driving techniques giving real life examples, which helps one understand and relate quickly.

“Matt was my instructor and I believe he is one of the best instructors out there. I was very very happy with him. Before Matt I wasn’t very lucky with instructors and besides a nice and competent instructor I also required a committed and reliable instructor. Matt was all that times 100 and I was very much looking forward to my lessons with him. Matt was a very good teacher who would go above and beyond for me. He was very committed to teach me how to become a safe and confident driver. He repeated as much as it was needed and he would train me with patience and persistence. Matt would never dismiss a question and would always take his time to explain things. His friendly personality made it very easy for me to feel very comfortable from day 1. Thanks to Matt I managed to pass my practical test with the first attempt. I would recommend Matt as driving instructor to everyone who wants to learn how to drive and become a safe and confident driver.”

“From my first driving lesson I Matt made me feel comfortable while effectively taking me through extra theory and tips to ensure that by the time I made it to the main road I was ready and confident. After a long break due to the first and second lockdown Matt stayed patient with the fact that I hadn’t drove in a while and guided me through my driving while still allowing me to independently learn at the same time. After two years of lockdowns I finally passed my driving test first time having done about 26 hours of lessons not only do I believe that he provided an excellent service as an instructor, I can also count on him to ask for any advice with my driving after our lessons have ended. I couldn’t recommend Matt enough.”
