Testimonials

I put off learning to drive for a lot of years and was a nervous learner. But I could tell from the start that Chris was the right instructor for the job. He was patient, tenacious and very effective. Chris is a credit to his profession and also happens to be a very nice bloke. Noel Gannon Wellingborough

I really enjoyed having Chris as an instructor. He was patient with me when I lost my confidence at driving and went back to basics in order to make me comfortable before going any further. He focus' on what you feel you need to work on and doesn't make you feel like you have to rush into taking your test. I would definitely recommend having him as your driving instructor. Daisy Habicher - Earls Barton.

I would like to thank Chris for his ever constant support and happy manner helping me to achieve my ADI Qualification. I was badley let down by a school who I had started my training with and was at a loss as to whom I could put my trust in. As a stroke of luck I was recommended Chris and I knew instantly that I could put my trust in Chris and decided to continue my training with him. I went on to pass my part 2 and part 3 exams. Thankyou Chris for all you have done , Dont change a thing that you do because thats what sets you aside from other's. Darren

I have to say a big thank you to Chris, he kept me up when I was down and gave me the confidence I needed to pass first time. I really cant say any more than if you are unsure who to go with or have not had the best experiences with others give Chris a go. He really is great. Cheers Chris. Ben Larkman - Wellingborough

I was so pleased to have Chris Howard as my driving instructor. Chris would always look at you as a friend instead of just another one of his students, which really gave the lessons a laid back feel; however always challenging to make you a better driver. I would recommend Chris to anybody without a doubt. Even though I was very nervous leading up to my test, Chris always knew what to say. I passed first time with only 2 minors. Thank you Chris

Adam White - all lesson made me feel completely comfortable , which made learning much easier. A very professional yet friendly service.

Chris is such a good instructor that I recommended him to my brother and one of my friends. We all agree that he is brilliant. He will never tell you off for doing something wrong, but his unsubtle (and friendly) hints keep you going on the right track. He really teaches you how to be a safe driver, making sure that you can deal with pretty much anything and because of this I passed first time. Thanks Chris! - Emma, Wellingborough. Thanks for everything, have fun teaching my brother! 

Having failed my test a few times I was starting to believe that I was never going to pass and I took break from driving. Chris was recommended to me by a friend and his structured and friendly lessons were really what I needed to regain my confidence, learn new skills and rediscover the fun in driving! I passed my test on the first attempt with Chris as my instructor and I would strongly recommend him to anyone who has found driving difficult! Thank you very much Chris! 

A big thank you too Chris Howard, who got me to pass my driving test first time; something I didn't think I would achieve. If you want to pass your driving test as soon as possible AND enjoy the experience at the same time, Chris is the instructor for you! Amanda Hill - Wellingborough

Would just like to say a huge thank you for helping me pass my driving test! I thouroughly enjoyed the time I spent with you as an insturctor. I was very nervous before my test but with your help I managed to stay calm and passed with only 1 minor! Anyone who is looking to start learning to drive, I do highly reccomend that you go with Chris Howard! Thanks for everything Chris! Kyle Lawrence - Earls Barton

Chris is a very professional instructor. He will help anyone, insuring they become qualified safe driver's. I would recommend him to anyone wanting to learn how to drive. Ry - Earls Barton

An efficient and fun path of learning to get you on the road to passing. Im now a happy and safe motorist thanks to Chris the instructor; look no further. Sam Smith - Earls Barton

I would like to say a huge THANK YOU Chris for helping me through all parts of the ADI training to fulfill my ambition to become a Driving Instructor. From the very outset of my training sessions you were extremely professional, patient, trustworthy, inspiring, friendly and a whole heap of fun. I can say that as a result of your high standard of teaching and total commitment and belief in my ability to succeed I was able to pass my Part 3 exam with a very pleasing Grade 5 (not forgetting the 4 ticks in the 6’s !) I have thoroughly enjoyed every minute of our lessons even the woolly ones (and there were a few!) and I will strongly recommend anyone who is considering this path to give you a call. I genuinely hope we will remain friends and l...

I did it! I actually passed my part 3 first time 🙂 I know I wasn't the easiest person you'll ever have to coach but your friendly, professional approach and unshakeable belief in my ability when I doubted myself was what got me through. Thank you! Maxine(PDI>>>ADI)

I started learning in August, with a different instructor from a well-known driving school and I hated it. I was being forced to 'take it slow' when I said I wanted to pass by christmas. If I had stayed with them, I would not be passed today. After 1 month of this, I stopped doing lessons for all of September, doing my theory test in this time. At the start of October, my mates who had already passed with Chris, recomended him to me. I started with Chris in early October and on the first lesson Chris let me drive, in full control of the car, unlike my first lesson with my other instructor. Chris is helpful, trusting and an overall nice guy. Most importantly I felt comfortable with him and his very unsubtle hints (you will get to know what I...

chris is an amazing instructor! he understood my specific strengths and weaknesses in my driving in order to help me progress which clearly worked as i passed!. chris is a lovely driving instructor and was so helpful and flexible with lesson times! i would highly reccomend Chris to anyone wanting to learn to drive! 

Chris is a great driving instructor and he helped me towards passing 1st time. 🙂 Chris will help you with anything you may be finding difficult and will answer any questions you may have. I would recommend Chris as a driving instructor to anybody. Thanks Again. 

After loosing my mum to cancer in April 2011, and failing my driving test 1st time in may. I would like to extend a massive thank you to you for helping me deal with my grief and regain my confidence. So i was able to pass 2nd time with only 3 minors in august 2011. I will definitely be recommending you to anyone wanting to learn to drive, whether they are young, mature or nervous and lacking confidence because i know you will help them succeed. Thank you,

Chris made me feel very relaxed behind the wheel and was an excellent teacher which gave me the confidence I needed to pass first time. It was a great experience learning with him and I am very grateful to have been his student. I have recommended him to a friend and would recommend him to anyone else. 

I always felt at ease when learning to drive with Chris and thoroughly enjoyed every lesson I had. Chris is a very genuine and friendly guy, which gave me the confidence to pass first time. 

I can fully recommend Chris as a brilliant driving instructor! I had failed my test three times in the past, and when I decided to start learning again 10 years later I was very nervous and stressed about driving. Chris was completely understanding from the start, and really boosted my confidence by being reassuring and supportive. Chris makes sure you know absolutely everything you need to pass your test, and still manages to make lessons fun. I passed with 0 minors after only 4 months of lessons with Chris and I know my test went so well this time because of his excellent teaching – thank you Chris! 

Having had a nasty accident when I was younger, I was an extremely nervous driver but I came across Chris' site and enquirered straight away. I have to say from the first phone call to the passing of my test, Chris has been simply amazing. He has been patient, empathetic and supportive of my learning throughout and I can't thank him enough for it. I felt totally safe under his direction and having the occasional giggle certainly got me through. If you aren't sure which instructor to go for, please pick up the phone and speak to Chris. I passed my test within just under 6 months of his direction after having an awful instructor, trust me you won't regret it. Thanks Chris - I will always be grateful for your support.

I was recommended to learn to drive with Chris by two people who both learnt to drive with him and passed their tests first time. The thing I was most worried about was driving on the roads amongst other people and having the responsibility of the car, however Chris reassured me and encouraged me which enabled me to pass my test first time. I can't thank him enough for his help and seriously recommend him to others!

Chris is an excellent driving instructor and I would thoroughly recommend him to anyone looking to learn to drive. From our very first lesson together he was not only professional and educational but his obvious passion for his job also meant my learning experience was fun and enjoyable. Chris' calm and relaxed attitude was instrumental in overcoming the problems I had experienced at the start of my driving experience. He not only helped me to pass my practical test first time but also to be a confident and safe driver after I had passed.

Flexible, patient, calm and thorough teaching
