After passing my C1 first time with GJM I’d like to say a massive thank everyone at the company. A truly great bunch of people where nothing is ever too much trouble! Special mention to Gary who taught me. Gary is highly knowledgeable, patient and a really fantastic teacher! He’s really given me the confidence to flourish. Thanks once again to the whole team at GJM. I would highly recommend to anyone! Loren :) xPosted on Google![]()

GJM is the best driving school ever and in my 5 years of driving and Gregor is the best driving instructor I’ve ever had! I originally enquired about doing my C1 reversing test, as I’d previously failed my c1 with another company and because of this I felt a bit nervous but I was happily convinced by the team to do my C1 test as they ensured me I would get expert support and experience on the day. I booked the one day course to do my 3A reversing and 3B road test. On the test day, Gregor was amazing, kind and everyone at GJM driving school was brilliant and very supportive of me. I had a great drive and the practice was amazing with laughs all the way to the test centre. I first passed my 3A reversing test and then I had an amazing lunch thanks to Gregor and When I got to the test centre to do my 3B toad test , I felt very confident, prepared and my nerves had disappeared due to the expert knowledge I received and I successfully passed the test. I would recommend this driving school to anyone who wants to do the c1. I cannot thank Gregor and the team enough for the brilliant day I had. Kind regards and all the best, HarryPosted on Google![]()

Just passed my C1 test with GJM, and I honestly couldn’t be happier with their service from start to finish! I can’t thank Jordan enough for all the help and support in getting me through my C1. I would highly recommend GJM to anyone looking to do their C1 training. If you’re lucky enough to have Jordan as your instructor, you’re in great hands! 👏 Thank you again GJM! 🚑Posted on Google![]()

A truly great experience from start to finish! I recently passed my C1 course and all the staff were fantastic. My initial dealings were with Adam who was extremely helpful and would go out of his way to sort everything out for me. Jordan my instructor was as equally brilliant and this led me to passing first time. Thank you!Posted on Google![]()

My driving instructor was Alex and she was amazing, every lesson was an actual lesson, I learned something every single time and it didn’t feel like a waste. She also pushes you to go to the next level. When I first started I hadn’t been behind a wheel and by 20 ish hrs in I had passed my test, first time. She’s so supportive and genuinely believes in you. She pushed me to book my theory test, cos I didn’t even have that done when I started. Then she pushed me to get a test date, I originally got January so that was my goal to learn by but she told me push it even closer as she’s confident I’ll be ready for it real soon. I remember after one of my lessons, about 5mins after it she came knocking on my door to tell me to book a slot on October and there’s loads now available and I sure did book the earliest I could because of her. She pushes you where she feels confident you’ll be in, a week after learning to reverse bay park she told me I should try and go in between 2 cars I said no at first even though every single time I parked up, it was perfect, so I I’ll do it next to one car, did it seemlessly then I knew I had to do it in between 2 cars and sure enough, I nailed it. She’s so sweet and she felt like a friend, not a teacher. I will miss my Monday mornings with her. Thank you Alex.Posted on Google![]()

Can’t recommend this company enough, a truly amazing team. Gary is extremely patient, knowledgeable and went above and beyond to calm my nerves and make me believe I was capable. I learnt a lot I didn’t know before without feeling overloaded with information. I was very nervous at first but by the time of my test I felt completely at ease, 100% prepared and passed first time thanks to Gary. The whole team are very helpful, they made it an all round enjoyable experience start to finish and couldn’t have asked for a better instructor.Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
