April, 2018 

John Lemming was a fantastic instructor, very patient, kind and accommodating. I would definitely recommend to anyone learning to drive! I’ve had a great driving experience and i’m glad I learnt with John at L Plates. Thank you so much for your time John! Olivia. Eastbourne.

I was extremely nervous and, honestly, very reluctant to finally learn to drive as I had put it off for so many years, so I knew I was going to need an excellent instructor! Fortunately for me, in John Leeming from L Plates, that's exactly what I got! John is down-to-earth, friendly, funny and put me completely as ease from the start. He put up with my mini-meltdowns, my moaning about my life, and just kept me going. I will miss our lessons/therapy sessions! It is purely thanks to him that I kept calm and passed first time. So did my stepdaughter, who John had previously taught, and hopefully my stepson will also shortly be following in our shoes and giving John a family clean sweep! Thank you - you've actually changed my life. Amanda. Pevensey.

Jim Eckford was my driving instructor. I would highly recommend him to anyone. He was patient, friendly and made me feel completely at ease from the get go. He never once turned up late or cancelled and was flexible with lessons to fit around my schedule. I passed first time which is a bonus and a testament to all the useful advice and mock tests he gave me. Thanks so much Jim and I look forward to doing Pass Plus! Eleanor. Brighton.

Driving Lessons Tonbridge

February, 2018 

I had a bad experience when learning to drive about seventeen years ago, and subsequently abandoned the idea of passing a test and getting a car of my own. I called Colin after a neighbour had said how patient and kind he was during her lessons. Colin took time to understand my nervousness, and I found it very easy to learn with him as he has a very calm nature. He has also never been frustrated by needing to explain things to me over and over again! Lessons were well-organised, and I also appreciated the written guidance provided, meaning I could read about what I had done in practice during the lesson. I have had weekly lessons with Colin for the last few months; I passed my test first time this week, and I am now off to pick up my very own car! Thank you to Colin and L-Plates for enjoyable lessons and for helping me achieve something I thought I never would. Angela. Tunbridge.

Throughout my time learning to drive, Frank Judah was constantly pushing me whilst also remaining patient. Providing me with good quality teaching combined with a good sense of humour, Frank managed to teach me everything and I passed first time. I would give the overall experience 10/10 and cannot fault my instructor at all. Ollie. Worthing.

Fantastic instructor Mark Napier. I would not have past my test if it wasnt for him believing in me and giving me the confidence I needed, he was so friendly, kind, genuine and patient.

Frank Judah is an excellent driving instructor. He is very patient and explains every new learning curve really well. I was a nervous driver, Frank really helped me to overcome my fear of driving helping me to become a confident driver, passing my test the first time. I really recommend Frank and his manual driving instructing as I believe L-Plates is great value for money and a friendly and helpful team. Charlotte. Worthing.

I'd like to thank John for his amazing approach at teaching me how to drive. Very well explained instructions and easy to follow. After not perusing driving for so long due to nerves I can't thank him enough for making me feel so at ease. Genuine nice guy and I'll definitely miss our chats! Thanks for everything John. I wish you well. Jennifer. Eastbourne.

My driving instructor from L Plates Driving School was Frank Judah and he's an amazing teacher. He was very supportive, understanding and patient with me; he always explained everything thoroughly and even if I wanted to go over a certain aspect 6 lessons in a row he never questioned it. So glad I got the amount of experience driving as I did as now I'm not nervous to go out on the roads by myself. Isabella. Worthing.

I started Learning back in January with Frank and passed on the 15.11.2017 on my first test :) Frank was a amazing Teacher that was so patient and calm when it came to teaching me everything. He also has a great sense of humor that got me through some of the hardest and stressful parts of learning. I probably wasn't the easiest to teach due to me having lessons after a full day at work and normal being tired or in a bad mood but Frank always started the lesson with a massive smile and words of entrenchment that brightened up my driving lessons. All in all I don't think I would have done half as well if I had been taught by anyone else. I would recommend Frank to everyone who want to learn to drive and think he is a big asset to the L plates team. April. Worthing.

I passed my driving test on the 2nd time! I would highly recommend Colin, he is very patient and organised! He is also a very good listener, I often told Colin what I wasn't confident in doing so we could practice that more. I have passed my test feeling confident to drive my baby around in the car and I feel that if I was ever in a situation I would know how to handle it. My niece is now taking driving lessons with Colin and I am sure she will have just as much success as I did. Thank you Colin! Stephanie Wicker. Tunbridge Wells.

Automatic Driving Lessons Eastbourne

September, 2017 

I am so over the moon since I passed my practical test first time on Tuesday 5th Of September with only 3 minor faults in Eastbourne! A very big thank you to Tina Rixon for simplifying driving techniques for me. Tina was not my 1st instructor! She was my 5th! As opposed to over 40 hours with past instructors and was no where close to driving standard, I had only 15 hours, approximately, with her She built back my confidence that was almost ruined with previous experiences from my previous instructors. Her unique way of passing instructions in a simple and easy-to-comprehend manner is so amazing. Unlike my other instructors, she hardly ever blew my mistakes out of proportion but would simply give me another opportunity to right my wrong. Now my status has changed! I definitely recommend Tina, you are simply more than the best, and of course L Plate driving school particularly if you were once in my shoes…?? Dr Joy Ekpata. Eastbourne.

L Plates has proved to me to be a driving school of exceptionally high standard of professional teaching. As L Plates helped me to achieve a goal that I never thought I would never make. Learning to drive properly and passing the driving test (doing it with 2 minor faults). Jim Eckford has been an excellent instructor with a wealth of practical and theory driving knowledge. Top notch dedicated instructor with the patience to guide anybody who is really does want to learn to drive correctly and safely. Thank you L Plates for value for money and providing the best quality driving education and support through the theory and practical tests! David Corti-Griffiths. Hove.

Driving Schools Tonbridge

August, 2017 

I 100% recommend L Plates Driving School. Colin, the instructor that was chosen for me, was very calm and relaxed throughout my whole experience of learning to drive. He taught me what not to do and didn't lecture me about the mistakes I made (and I made a lot of them!), simply told me what I done wrong and what to do to avoid doing it again. 


Colin is extremely friendly, I found the more I learnt to drive with him, the more we got to know each other, the more it felt like a normal drive around. I was learning at the same time but it didn't feel like a lesson which helped to keep my nerves down. 

Unfortunately for me I let my nerves get the better of me for two of my tests, I knew myself I could do everything as did Colin. He was very good at helping me to stay calm and giving me good prep talks, making sure that I had practiced the parts that I was uncertain off before the test and giving me tips on how other students helped themselves to keep their nerves down. The 3rd test came around and it felt different to the other two, we hardly spoke to each other which helped me to picture how it would be in the test and when we got to the test centre we just had casual chats, it helped me completely forget about the fact that it was a test. I felt like it was a lesson more then a test due to neither myself nor Colin talking about it. 

Amazingly I passed with only 3 minors which was a complete and total shock to myself, Colin on the other hand knew how well I could do and ever doubted me as a driver. He always looked at the positives even with the tests I failed on, never gave up on me and kept giving me positive feedbacks which helped massively. 

I recommend everyone I know to learn with Colin, especially if they struggle with their nerves like I did. His calm, relaxed and easy going personality is exactly what I needed when I first began to learn, now I am on the road with my own car and have no concerns on how to do anything while being in the drivers seat. Just want to say a massive thank you to Colin himself as without his calmness I don't think I would have passed as soon as I did. Sophie Rose. Tonbridge.

So I had frank as my instructor and I can honestly say that he is more than just an instructor he goes above and beyond to make sure your at ease when your with him and very patient and precise while instructing you!! A genuine nice guy that you can get along with while leaning can honestly say im gunna miss my lessons and the banter we had together but he got me through my test first time so easily ?? absolute top bloke and would highly recommend to go with him!

When I decided to learn to drive I chose Giles Blanch due to his high recommendations on L Plates Driving School website advertising local driving instructors. He lived up to his reviews and proved to be a patient and understanding instructor. He ensured that we concentrated on my weaker driving skills carrying out these manoeuvres every lesson until I could complete them perfectly. He would also boost my confidence by complimenting me on my general driving when a lesson had been particularly successful. I would highly recommend both the school and Giles to anybody thinking about learning to drive in the Crawley area. Djanicie de Souza Rosa Murphy. Crawley.

April, 2017

To be honest, this was the last chance saloon. Having taken driving lessons twice before, I was giving it one more go before I threw the towel in. Issues with reversing round corners and a complete lack of spacial awareness, I thought my new driving instructor wouldn't have a hope in hell of getting me through a test. But Ray Brewster of L Plates did. 
Thanks to his patience, humour and dogged determination to get me to succeed I passed the test and they're now letting me on the road, ALONE. Ray was able to make the process fun and we even had an adventure together - avoiding a beautiful and enormous rutting deer that ran across the road in the front of the car on a country road!
Ray's professionalism helped me overcome my nervousness and though still nowhere near a perfect driver, his training will stand me in good stead for my first year of independent driving - at the grand old age of 48. Thanks Ray :o). Julie McNamee. Lewes.

My driving instructor, Frank Judah, was very thorough every lesson. We went over every skill more than once to keep things fresh in my mind and increase my confidence with driving in general. I am delighted with the progress I made from my first lesson to my test and believe that this was due to the well-tailored lessons I had. Frank allowed me to choose what it was that I wanted to practise each lesson, as well as offering meaningful suggestions and advice that come with his obvious experience. I felt well-supported throughout and the mock tests helped prepare me for the practical driving test. I would definitely recommend L Plates Driving School, as they understand that different people will progress at different rates, make you feel at ease, and prepare you for driving after the test.  Sarah Marlow. Worthing.
