I’d highly recommend Kangaroo Driver Training for anyone wanting to learn how to drive a manual car! I’ve just passed my manual driving test at York DTC, having learned in his Nissan Qashqai and can assure you that James is incredibly patient! I’ve always felt safe learning with him in the car with me. He’s consistently clearly with his instructions and will always let you determine the pace of your lessons too. I’ve really enjoyed learning with James!

I have just passed my test on the first attempt with 0 minors, so a massive thank you to James! I've had disappointing experiences in the past with a couple of instructors, not helped by the pandemic, but James was a breath of fresh air when I found him. He was committed to my development and I really enjoyed the process from start to finish. During times where the wait for a driving test is 5 months, James was flexible and planned the frequency of lessons perfectly to leave me fully prepared and ready to smash the test. I highly recommend Kangaroo Driving school.

James is an amazing driving instructor. He's very easy to get along with, is professional, knowledgeable, very relaxed, calm & patient which helped with my confidence whilst learning & allowed me to pass first time. I really enjoyed my lessons with James & would highly recommend him to anyone learning to drive in the area. Thank you, James!

I would highly recommend James from Kangaroo driving school for anyone wanting to learn to drive. My experience learning to drive with James has been extremely positive when comparing this to my previous driving instructor. For instance, I feel like he trusts my driving ability more. James is very patient and understanding, as he will explain where I went wrong and what adjustments I can make to avoid committing the same mistake again. Furthermore, James will allow me to keep practising until I have addressed the error, which gives me confidence. For instance, previously I always struggled with the timing of roundabouts as I wasn’t sure what gear to select. However, with his expert advice of aiming for 10 miles an hour in gear 2 just before the roundabout, I have managed to overcome these problems and perfect roundabouts. This has increased my confidence and therefore has allowed me to progress more dramatically than before. Thanks James!

I cannot recommend James from the Kangaroo driving school enough to anyone who is wanting to learn to drive in a professional and fun environment. I have had other driving instructors in the past, and have failed a few driving tests before the pandemic, this has led to my confidence falling through the floor, and being nervous and anxious about the idea of driving, let alone a driving test!! However James is really good at explaining every aspect of driving techniques and manoeuvres, which boosts the confidence of the student. This is further helped by his knowledge of teaching methods, he will adapt his teaching to match his student needs, therefore providing the best driving instruction I have had the pleasure of receiving.
