Honestly didn't think I'd be ready this quickly but my instructor's structured approach made everything click into place. The lesson plans were really clear and built my confidence week by week, especially on the trickier roads around town. Managed to pass first time at the local test centre before heading off to uni, which was my goal. Really chuffed with how it all worked out.

Found Rated Driving through a friend's recommendation and couldn't be happier. Our daughter's instructor was endlessly patient, especially during those tricky early lessons around town. The flexibility with pick-ups from South Devon College was brilliant for us as working parents. She sailed through her test at Newton Abbot first time. Really grateful for the excellent teaching and support throughout.

My instructor had me practising the actual test routes from Newton Abbot test centre for weeks before my test. We covered the tricky roundabouts and narrow roads around Bovey Tracey repeatedly until I could almost drive them with my eyes closed. By test day, nothing felt unfamiliar or daunting. The examiner took me through areas I'd done countless times. Passed first time with only three minors because I was so well prepared.
