What Our Learners Say
Learners Who Chose a
Female Instructor
Real reviews from learners who felt more comfortable with a female instructor.
Patient instructor, first time pass!
Found Rated Driving through a friend's recommendation when my daughter needed lessons. Her instructor was brilliant, really patient with her nerves and picked her up from Hopwood Hall which made everything so much easier with our work schedules. She passed first time at Rochdale test centre last week and we couldn't be more pleased. Great driving school, would definitely recommend to other parents.
Stephen C
Knew the Routes Inside Out
My instructor had me practising the actual test routes from Rochdale centre for weeks before my test. We covered all the main areas including Drake Street and the tricky roundabouts near the town centre repeatedly. By test day, everything felt familiar rather than nerve-wracking. I knew exactly what to expect at each junction and could focus properly on my driving. Passed first time with only three minors.
Holly H
Failed First, Passed Second Time
I failed my first test at Rochdale for poor observations at roundabouts and letting nerves get the better of me on Drake Street. Felt awful about it. My instructor at Rated Driving didn't let me dwell on it though. We spent the next few weeks doing targeted practice on busy roundabouts and worked on breathing techniques to stay calm. He broke down exactly where I was going wrong with mirror checks. Second time round I passed with just 3 minors. Really grateful for the patient approach and honest feedback.
