"I did a 3 day intensive course after years of learning to drive and several tests, Graham was able to build my confidence back up and I passed so it goes to show having the right driving instructor who is willing to be patient and understanding makes the difference, would highly recommend, especially if you've taken time out of driving!"

"We changed driving instructors to Graham and he did an amazing job of remotivating my daughter. Under his expert guidance she passed first time with no driver faults. I'd definitely recommend him and will be rebooking him for my next daughter."

“Graham, is a very knowledgeable and helpful driving instructor. I had already had previous driving lessons but I did a PassMeFast course with Graham and he got me to test standard in just 8hours. I am happy to share that I did pass on my first try thanks to Graham and I don’t know if I could have done it without his knowledge and support. I highly recommend him!“

"Could not recommend Graham enough... He instantly made me feel at ease and confident in my own driving ability. As well as being a lovely person and having a laugh during lessons, he is also very calm and understanding! Couldn’t have passed without him! Thank you for all your help!"

“I needed some refresher lessons as I hadn’t had any lessons in a few years. Graham was really helpful, he got me back into the swing of things, let me know my weak points and helped me work on them. I ended up passing first time!”

"I did a week-long intensive course with Graham and passed first time. It was a pleasure to be taught by him. He is excellent at explaining things and really making sure you understand the concepts before putting them to practice. Graham is patient yet diligent, expertly identifying points where you're going wrong and ensuring that they're fixed and you're ready for your test. I highly recommend Graham and York Driving School for a great learning experience."

"Would highly recommend Graham. Graham is a very good and very patient driving instructor. Graham enabled me to build up my confidence using his extensive skills and knowledge. He is very professional and structured. I cannot thank Graham enough! With only 10 lessons after knowing the basics, I passed in my 1st go."

“My driving instructor was Graham Hood. Could not recommend more! I have had a few different instructors before Graham but he was by far the most helpful. Very patient, kind and calm and knows exactly what skills you need to build on. A great instructor!“

“Wanted our son to pass quickly and was struggling to find an instructor who would agree to more than two sessions per week at the most. Then spoke to Graham who agreed to a more intensive programme to fit in with our son’s sporting commitments. Our son informed us that he was patient, calm, encouraging, knowledgeable and very helpful. After lessons he was very approachable and advised us how our son was progressing. The result was the ‘L’ plates were off in just 6 weeks. Well done Graham and thank you.”

“Couldn’t recommend anybody better than Graham Hood for a driving instructor. Driving wasn’t something I could see myself doing for a very long time but from day 1 Graham made me feel comfortable and at ease and I have now passed first time 🙂 He’s patient and understanding and will guide you through everything every step of the way! Highly recommended by me! Thank you for everything.“

“Graham was great. I’d had some unfortunate luck with previous instructors, and after only 5 lessons I had been taught some much better driving techniques and had passed my test with ease, despite being quite a nervous driver. Would definitely recommend.“

“Graham was my driving instructor and what a brilliant experience I had learning with him. I had taken my test a year earlier (learning with a different company) failed quite badly so put it off for a while. I needed to find a new instructor and luckily I got Graham! Within 10 hours I was a much much better driver and successfully passed my test on the second attempt. My bad habits, lack of confidence and terrible manoeuvres were soon sorted thanks to Graham! Would I recommend him? Absolutely! I’d advise people to request him ! Top man, top instructor 10/10 Thank you.“
