I passed my test first time at the start of June after around 9 months of lessons with Stewart. As a bit of an anxious driver who'd had negative experiences with a previous driving school, I felt like... See more

My Driving instructor was Sam and i cannot recommend him enough he deserves so much praise he helped me overcome so much and improve my confidence to the fullest listening to me and guiding me when i had issues or got a bit emotional so so patient using different ways to help me remember i want to say a massive thank you to him for helping me pass and having so much confidence in me when i doubted myself! #TeamFordys 🙌
I had a great experience learning to drive with my instructo tony, he was very patient, professional, and explained everything clearly, which helped me build my confidence behind the wheel. Every lesson was well-structured, and tony provided constructive feedback that helped me improve quickly. tony created a calm and supportive learning environment, making even challenging situations feel manageable. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and reliable driving instructor. Thank you for all your guidance and support! will 100% be recommending
Passed my driving test first time from learning with Jo. She is the best instructor. She is knowledgeable, calm and patient. Thank you for all your help!
Having my lessons with Fordys was a massive help, I don't think I would have had as good of a chance at passing my test and gaining confidence in driving if I had gone with anyone else! My instructor Matt was brilliant he went above and beyond for me in our lessons and was incredibly friendly, we had quite a few laughs these past few months and it's an experience that will stick with me for a long time, I was in safe and capable hands and I can't thank him enough!
I was learning with Dave for a while he was really helpful and understanding with my schedule, he helped me pass first time, really nice to talk overall 10/10 experience would recommend to anyone learning to drive
My experience with Glynn and Fordys was fantastic. Every lesson was always something to learn and I enjoyed every session. Massive thank you couldn’t ask for better help to get me to pass
dave was my driving instructor and i would 100% recommend he listened to me and asked me if i was comfortable doing the driving i was doing and he was very patient and talkative which i think is a very key part of being an instructor. Thanks to dave i passed my test and im very happy i could pass to make him happy.
I passed first time today with only 2 minors, and I couldn’t have asked for a better instructor than Sam. He’s incredibly calm, patient, and always knows how to help you feel relaxed behind the wheel. As a very nervous beginner, I often felt overwhelmed when driving, but thanks to Sam’s support and teaching style, I grew in confidence with every lesson. I now feel comfortable, capable, and confident in my driving. Plus, if you’re lucky, you’ll get treated to some great singing along the way! I’d highly recommend Sam and Fordys Driving School to anyone looking to learn to drive.
Glynn is a fantastic instructor who pushes his students to perform as skillfully and safely as possible ready for their test, yet remains calm and meticulously guides you through mistakes. After two previous fails in Weston, Glynn helped me pass my first attempt in Bristol after just a few lessons. Highly recommended!
Had the best driving experience with Fordys! Rob is the best driving instructor he’s very supportive and helpful. I would 100% recommend to anyone!
Can’t recommend Rob Bird enough. Very relaxed lessons with great feedback and advice. Everything you need to learn to drive.
i passed first time yesterday! thank you to tony he was an amazing driving instructor and helped me gain loads of confidence. i couldn't thank him enough.
Glynn Boyett was a fantastic instructor. He knew what I could do and pushed me to a spot that progressed my abilities without making me uncomfortable. Thanks to his superb tutoring I was able to pass first time and none of it would have been possible without him. He's reliable, understanding and an all-round great person. So thankful to have him as my instructor and wouldnt have wanted anyone else.

Gary was an amazing instructor, his teaching was very clear throughout the lessons and he was incredibly supportive and encouraging as well. Would thoroughly recommend him to anyone of any ability and I'm very glad I went with him!
