Could not of asked for a better teacher, got me all the way from having next to no expirence to passing my driving test first try. Rob is an amazing guy and would highly recommend to anyone with or without exspirence because no matter what he will help you improve.

I had Rob for a driving lesson and test package. I couldn’t have asked for a better instructor. He was calm, professional, and explained everything clearly, which helped me feel much more confident going into my test. Even in just one lesson, he gave me some really valuable tips that made a big difference. I highly recommend Rob to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and supportive driving instructor. Thanks again, Rob!

I had recently moved from a different state and needed to learn some different road rules. Rob made me feel very comfortable and helped me with the process of my licence. I was able to pass my test first try because Rob assured me that I am a great driver. I would highly recommend booking with Rob.

I had the best training from Rob that I ever could have. Not only did I pass my test first try, but I also learnt not to be scared of driving. Rob taught me how to be calm and how to manage the road rules after moving states. I would highly recommend booking with Rob as he is simply the best.

An amazing school with highly constructive and effective teaching methods that challenge students in a confidence building way. As lessons progress, they encourage you to start making your own decisions rather than relying on constant guidance and direction, which i found incredibly valuable for building real independence and road awareness. Their ability to clearly explain concepts, provide practical feedback and push to help me improve very quickly while feeling comfortable. After each session there were clear takeaways i could use for a better understanding on how to become a safer, more competent driver. I highly recommend this school.

I used XL driving school for three lessons. While already having driven a manual for a few months Rob helped me increase my knowledge of how to drive the car as well as road rules. Which ultimately played a major role in passing my test.

I had 6 driving lessons with Rob. I was nervous to start the first lesson but Rob instantly made me feel comfortable. He provided excellent instruction & I passes my driving test the first time with zero errors. Thanks for your patience Rob.

I had an amazing experience learning to drive manual with Rob at XL Driving School. From day one, Rob was patient, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable. He made every lesson clear and manageable, even when things felt tricky. His calm approach and clear instructions really helped build my confidence behind the wheel. Rob’s passion for teaching and his attention to detail made a big difference in my learning process. He didn’t just prepare me to pass the test he made sure I became a safe, capable driver for real-world driving. Thanks to Rob, I passed my manual driving test and feel completely ready for the road. I’d highly recommend him to anyone looking for a skilled and supportive driving instructor. Awesome job, Rob

Rob did a great job with both my kids. He identified areas to be worked on, and methodically brought them both up to scratch. Both passed manual test first time, and more importantly, I now feel they are safe out there driving. Of particular value, I feel, is the lesson just before the test. Thanks Rob.
