I would recommend Colin Dawes to anyone due to the fact that he is very easy to get along with and his teaching method is very effective. Communication with Colin is easy since its so simple to arrange lessons with him. He picks up on nerves of learner drivers and creates a comfortable and safe enviornment in what can be a challenging new skill to learn. 10/10 for L Plates Driving School. Kate. Tonbridge.

Learning to drive in my thirties has not been easy, especially with family and work priorities constantly in the way. John Mell has been an excellent instructor throughout this journey. He pays a lot of attention to details and was always on track of my progress. You won't meet many instructors who makes detailed notes of every driving lessons like him. I was thrilled to pass the test on my first try, all credits go to John and L Plates! Jenny. Reigate.

February 2020

My instructor, John Leeming, helped me so much to pass my test. I had previously taken other tests with a different driving school and wasn’t successful. I was a nervous driver when I started my lessons with John but he was so patient with me and understanding even though it took awhile to gain enough confidence. John was always calm and helpful through every mistake. So 5 stars for service and quality. 4 stars for value as was a little pricey but still cheaper than my previous instructor. Leah. Eastbourne.

Colin was an excellent instructor. He placed the lessons well, was great with explanations and very patient. After failing my first exam due to my hesitation, I was very disappointed and upset. However, Colin was extremely supportive and was able to cheer me up and motivate me to try again. I was able to book another test after looking everyday and communicating with my instructor to make sure the date fitted us both. Colin was very flexible with his lessons and times. I was able to pass on my second time with 4 minors. Colin has prepped me well before the test and I was able to use his tips during the test. Would definitely recommend Colin as a driving instructor. He’s extremely patient, understanding and friendly. Colin was able to teach me everything I need to know about driving for the test and beyond in a very calm and relaxed manner. He prepares you well for the test and has a nice chat before hand to boost your confidence. He made my driving experience very comfortable and enjoyable. Thank you for being a great teacher! Kate.

October 2019

First I want to thank Mark Napier for all his support throughout my time being a pupil at his driving school through L Plates.
I first came across Mark when I started learning again in 2013/14 using an automatic instead of a manual.
Mark shows a passion in teaching others to drive, a great sense of humour and also very calm natured with excellent support, especially with nervous drivers like myself and help build confidence in those learning to drive.
Mark taught me a lot about driving that my previous instructor didn't, he uses diagrams and put me scenarios to use my own initiative to tackle it.
I highly recommend Mark to anyone learning to drive in an automatic.
Once again thank you Mark for everything! Anna-Belle. Hastings.

I had John Leeming as my instructor and needed to get my license completed over summer before my theory certificate ran out. I was a bit out of practice so took time to get up to test standard. John was supportive, patient and constructive throughout the whole process. He understood my urgency to get it done while I was home from uni, but also never rushed the situation. He was calm and trusted my judgement and made me feel at ease the whole time I was in the car. He was friendly and polite throughout and I can’t thank him enough. I fully recommend L Plates Driving School, and John Leeming as an instructor. Thank you! Beth. Eastbourne.

After failing my test 3 times previously I decided to switch instructors to try and build up my driving skills. Frank Judah was recommended to me by a friend and he really was fantastic throughout the whole process. Frank helped me build my confidence massively and taught me some things that I hadn’t even learnt in the previous year of learning! After 3 fails with a previous instructor I passed first time round with Frank which I think shows how much he helped me build my confidence! I would 10/10 recommend Frank to anyone, he focuses on getting people ready to drive safely and confidently for their whole future, not just to pass a test. Anne. Worthing.

I started my driving lessons in February last year, I was very worried and nervous to even get the car moving. But if it wasn’t for my amazing instructor Frank I would not have the confidence that I have today. I passed my driving test on Tuesday and it’s safe to say, I wouldn’t of been able to of done it without Frank. He is an amazing instructor and remains calm under pressure. For myself that is a type of instructor I needed. Frank is very friendly and an outstanding instructor. I can not recommend Frank enough. Definitely get yourself booked for lessons with Frank, I would not of been able to pass with the knowledge, safety and everything else that goes into driving without him. 
Thank you so much Frank! Layla. Worthing.

Hi. 

One of the best driving schools out there. The prices for lessons are fair, and they offer some really good deals for loyal customers. 

John who was my instructor, is one of the best instructors I've ever had. Very knowledgeable man who knows a lot not just about the driving itself, but also about the teaching techniques and how to approach his students. Something not a lot of casual instructors can do. Also very well organised, plans ahead and really shows that he cares about his clients and their driving life. This is the least you can expect from someone like John. : ) 
Once again John, thank you for your help. I really appreciate your patience, support and the programme you have accurately constructed for me. Despite our last lesson being very unlucky, I did well on the driving test. I think i'ts who you are as a person that makes you a superb instructor, not just your discipline and your knowledge. I wouldn't have passed it as confidently and as flawlessly as I did without you. You have taught me a lot of valuable lessons, and this time I'm telling you John.. You did well : ) Thank you !

L Plates Driving School knows how to look and keep good people with a lot of driving knowledge and experience. 

Thank you John, and all of you guys : ).

I passed my driving test at my very first attempt and with just one minor. This is due largely to hardwork put in by driving instructor, Raj Purba. Raj has an exceptional personality and pays very close attention to minute details. He gives clear and very concise explanations as well as feedback on progress. Clearly, Raj's goal was not just about making me pass the test but it was more to make me become a very good and safe driver overall. Thank you Raj. Andrew. East Grinstead.

Colin was a fantastic driving instructor which was expected as I am the third person in my family to learn with him. He was very patient and flexible with his lessons, particularly when I was nearing my test date. He encouraged me to choose what I felt less confident about and he allowed me to practise these things. We covered many routes around Tunbridge Wells which ensured that I knew what to expect when it came to my driving test. We practised the main routes as well as the tricker routes. Colin was friendly throughout and I would definitely recommend him to a friend! Olivia. Tonbridge.

Colin Dawes was an incredibly instructor! With his friendly approach, driving was stress-free and focused. Especially as the time got closer to the test, Colin was extremely supportive and constructive. He has taught both my sister and I, where we both passed our practical and theory tests first time with very little minors. I would recommend Colin to anyone who is ready to enjoy driving, in a relaxed environment in order to be focused, aware and calm on the roads, where you are given all the knowledge on driving and are able to problem solve. 
Thank you Colin! Stephanie. Tunbridge Wells.

It took me 20 years to get around to do my driving licence. I have been very lucky to find John Mell at L Plates Driving School. I was feeling lost and uncertain after using a previous driving school, but John gave me all the support and confidence I needed to pass my driving test. It wasn’t just the practical lessons, but L Plates also provide a range of study materials and driving notes. The online study was easy and practical as I could do it in any free time. 

I have been very lucky to do my driving with John and I can’t praise him enough. I’m dyslexic so needed additional support, John was a fabulous instructor who was able to keep me calm, he was always prompt and well organised for the lessons, tracking my progress and working out my weaknesses.

I had the pleasure of having John Mell as my driving instructor. John has exceptional mentoring skills (he is a former deputy head of an infants school) and very amiable personality. Very professional, methodical, mindful, composed, kind and willing to help and accommodate your needs, certainly going an extra mile with me on many an occassion. I am sorry for being so demanding customer with him, as my nerves often got the better of me and John certainly rose up to the challenge when that happened. I hope that his future students will prove less challenging than me. Thanks to John's perseverence and the above mentioned qualities I managed to become a confident driver and pass my driving test. I look forward to cruising the roads of Redhill and beyond! Joanna. Redhill.
