I passed first time with Antonio! He is a fantastic instructor who will tailor your training to ensure you develop on your weak points and are continuously perfecting your skills. He makes sure to push you to be your best without being too harsh or hard on you. I would highly recommend learning with Tuga and would like to thank Antonio again for his great instructing.

First time out on the road and I was quite nervous to start my lessons as I’d put them off for so many years. However, Clive was awesome! I felt calm and confident behind the wheel by the end of my lesson. He’s a great instructor, giving very clear and simple instructions. Never once did he over complicate things and made me feel completely at ease. I enjoyed driving so much more than I thought I would and I achieved so much in my first lesson. Can’t wait to get behind the wheel again. I would highly recommend Clive to anyone who is looking to learn fast and efficiently whilst building confidence behind the wheel. He pushed me to learn but never made me feel panicked or alone in the car. 5 stars!

P. K.

I am super happy with driving school choice. My instructor John is a highly professional instructor with many years of experience. His advices, technics and recomendations were simple and easy to understand and to follow. He got me fully prepared to pass the driving test. I can only recommend his services.

I've just passed my driving test this week with Antonio. I have little doubt he is one of the best instructors available in London if you want to get your license with real road skills and confidence. I went from little experience and poor confidence to learning life-long quality road safety skills and getting my license in a short amount of time and I can only thank Tuga Driving School for that. Would recommend to anyone, best decision I made. Thanks Antonio!

Antonio was a great instructor who helped me learn how to drive well, as well as, helping me become more confident in myself whilst driving. Thanks to all his help I passed first time a few days ago. I definitely recommend him.

I would without reservation recommend Clive Valydon as an extremely effective driving instructor. His style of instruction is patient and easy-going which instills confidence and his genuine enthusiasm for teaching shows regardless of whether it is 7am or 7pm. Also, he was invaluable in helping securing a test at short notice which has become quite difficult given the ongoing pandemic and general shortage of tests. Thanks again Clive!

S. P.

Passed my test first try today and I have my teacher, Clive, to thank for that. I’d never been behind the wheel of a car before, yet Clive got me to pass within 30h of practice. I personally didn’t want to spend months and months preparing for the exam. We went for 6h - 8h of lessons a week and that worked well for me. That said, have a chat with your instructor and figure out a schedule that works well for you. I recommend Tuga driving school. Clive will teach you not only how to drive, but drive well enough to pass your practical test with no problems.

I want to thank my instructor Clive for all the dedication, for all the support, that you gave me over these months so that I could pass my driving exam today (18-08-2020 ) . The way we trained all possible test routes, and as you were sure of the examination route I was going to take, your intuition was right! Clive you were very, very professional, an excellent instructor with all the patience and dedication to teach me how to drive safely and correctly. thank you for believing in me and encouraging me when i thought i would never make it when i was always snowy and just screwed up and you were always in good shape ! Thanks we did it ! I would recommend Clive as instructor for anyone wants to learn how to drive and get the driving license. Thank you very much Clive ! Sonia Vieira

I had my second session with Clive, and it was amazing! I still can’t believe how much experience I’ve got in so little time. He gave me the confidence to drive on a dual carriageway and change upto 5th gear. This has definitely helped me with my anxiety when driving.

I. E. (.

Antonio is truly an amazing driving instructor and this was clear since my first lesson with him. He gave me all the skills I needed not only to pass my test but also when I enter the real world of driving alone. He had confidence in me even at times when I didn't have it within myself, which I believe is what allowed me to grow and pass in the end. Truly provides top quality lessons and teaching, totally worth every penny...couldn't fault him!!

K. R. S.

I passed my test in my first try thanks to the solid prep and support from my amazing instructor and a great guy to work with, Clive. Clive stands out as a great teacher with that rare combination of expertise, passion for his work, confidence, personability, excellent communication skills and ability to connect very well with his pupils with his sense of humor and curiosity. Out of about a dozen instructors I had phoned and spoken to, Clive was the only one who impressed, not only with a very confident and clear vision of how he could help me pass the test, but he was also the only instructor who actually followed up after a day and answered all my questions which put me at ease about choosing him. Clive came good on his promises in spades, and I'm truly happy I went with him as my driving instructor. His approach quickly builds confidence, and is an excellent mix of techniques not just for good driving but for driving to demonstrate exactly the things that the driving examiner will look for on test day. He cements the confidence with repeated practice using his excellent knowledge of possible test routes, details of what could go wrong on those routes and how to avoid going wrong. I think Clive is truly one of the best in his field, and his training is worth every minute and penny. I would happily recommend Clive to my friends and family for their driving test prep needs.

I started driving with Antonio having never set foot in the driver's seat of a car before. By the end, I managed to pass my practical test first time with only two minors. I was elated with this result and this was thanks to Antonio's instruction and attention to detail. I also had quite a tight deadline by which I needed to take my test due to moving out of London and Antonio managed to find time to give me extra lessons so that I felt sufficiently prepared for the test. Thank you Antonio

I have just started my manual driving lessons with Clive and I can already tell that I'm in great hands. As an American in London who previously learned to drive on an automatic (and on the other side of the road/vehicle) I felt like I was starting all over. After one lesson, Clive has made me feel confident that I can retrain with the skills and knowledge needed. He adapts his teaching style to each learner and truly guides/helps you understand things that might be blocking your progress. I was previously taking lessons in Wimbledon and had considered resuming lessons (post-lockdown) with Chelsea Driving School, but my first lesson with Clive has sealed the deal! Really looking forward to continuing my journey with Tuga and Clive.

T. R.

I highly recommend Tuga Driving School to anyone aiming to pass their driving exam!! I had Antonio, who’s a top class driving instructor. I was really impressed with his level of professionalism towards me as a students. He is a very supportive but at the same time demanding instructor who develops you into a safe and capable driver. Every lesson I felt increasingly confident on the road and that is a direct reflection of Antonio’s dedicated and detailed teaching style, each lesson was tailored to my personal ability. I also have to genuinely say that Antonio is a really really good guy, who knows his stuff about cars and I’m sure you’ll enjoy chatting to him outside formal parts of the lesson, as much as I did. Thank you again!! Highly recommend!

10 years ago I had a bad experience doing my driving course abroad and just thinking of driving a car gave me shivers. I couldn’t control the stress and I thought that I’d never be a driver. Then I stumbled upon Tuga driving school where I met Clive who, through methodic and calm approach, turned me into a confident driver! Even when the situations got heated and stressful, he kept his cool (sometimes I couldn’t believe how calm he was…) and was able to guide me through them - his reassurance, altogether with calm approach helped me pass the test on the first try! We practiced the test routes and he managed to predict the exact one I had during the test, which definitely was a huge factor in me passing it. He gradually built up my confidence by challenging me more and more until those challenges became my second nature. Thank you Tuga and thanks Clive! Anyone who wants to have a real shot at passing on the first try - book your session with Clive! I’ll miss our sessions, but I guess now’s a time to get my own car!

FINALLY IVE PASSED MY TEST ❤️ For a few years now I had been with BSM and drivejohnsons and honestly felt like giving up, the lessons were going too slowly and I didn’t feel as if I was progressing as well as I did with tuga driving school, as well as this it started to get expensive. As a Critical Worker it was important for me to pass my driving test as soon as possible as I need to travel for work reasons. Luckily I was able to get an emergency driving test and Clive from Tuga driving school was up and ready to teach me and get me prepared for my test. Clive is a lively person and really made me feel confident in my driving skills as well as that his way of teaching is very chill which is exactly what I needed since I am a very nervous person. He gave me tips and pointers in places I needed to improve. Within 10 hours of lessons with Clive I had passed my emergency test at Mitcham. I highly recommend tuga driving school for both new and experienced drivers, I will never forget him.

Antonio is a fantastic driving instructor. He was supportive from the start, boosting my confidence. The pace of the lessons were spot on and he showed great patience. As well as being accommodating and friendly to his students, he delivers a rigorous, holistic course that not only helps to ensure you pass, but also develops you into a safe and considerate driver. Under his tutelage, I became confident behind the wheel and picked up my driving licence! I would not hesitate to recommend Tuga Driving School and Antonio to anyone looking for a driving school and an Approved Instructor. Thank you Antonio!

C. R.

After using a couple of other local instructors and finding their cars ran down and old, their techniques unhelpful or badly taught i had almost given up. Thankfully on a last attempt at finding a decent instructor i called Tuga driving school and had my first lesson within a week with John. An excellent instructor with a brand new hybrid car that will spoil you as its a dream to drive. John was always on time, always professional and taught great manoeuvres consistently. He knows when to go easy on you and when to be stern, pushing you to be better. When you learn with John you dont learn just to pass your test, you learn to be a good driver. Thanks for helping me pass with only two minors John! Simon

C. A.

Antonio was a fantastic driving instructor right from my very first lesson. I was not the most confident would-be driver, but with Antonio's patience yet rigorous teaching/training, I was able to become confident behind the wheel and picked up my driving licence! Wohoo! He has superb knowledge of cars and all things mechanical. And he will teach you all the skills you need to be a safe and confident driver for life. I would not hesitate to recommend Tuga Driving School and Antonio to anyone looking for a driving school and an Approved Driving Instructor. I will certainly miss our driving lessons together because aside from the lessons, he is a friendly and easy going guy! Give him a call and discuss prospective lessons with him, you will not be disappointed! :)

G. B. (.

I took my test on 5th March and I passed 1st time with only 6 faults thanks to John. He is brilliant, professional, patient, experienced and very very friendly. John always made me confidence while driving, he is strict but because he cares about my driving skills and safety in the road, so when the time comes I would be fully and well prepared, both for the driving test and independent driving in the future. I totally recommend Tuga driving school and John, it will be worth it every penny.

W. P.

I had Antonio as my driving instructor and it was the best decision as I passed first time on my first attempt. Also, he gave me the confidence to be behind the wheel. He is able to give easy and understandable instructions allowing us as students to not over complicate simple tasks. I would highly recommend Tuga Driving School as you will be taught to drive at a high standard allowing you to minimise all mistakes that you may do.

S. T.

Antonio is such a good driving instructor, he cares enough to prepare you for real life driving, not just to pass the test. Passed first time and feel comfortable driving due to my lessons! I recommend him to anyone who wants to learn how to be a safe and responsible driver. Thank you Antonio!

M. A.

Successfully passed my practical driving test today thanks to Antonio! He is a highly professional, enthusiastic and generous driving teacher and is clearly very passionate about his work. He has taught me all the skills and knowledge in such a way that I feel totally confident now about my driving. I can not recommend him and his colleagues at his driving school more. In fact, he is now also teaching my partner. Thank you for everything!

V. K.

I had my mind set on driving an automatic transmission as easier option and never even thought I would be able to learn mechanic. However, Clive from Tuga Driving School convinced me to give it a try and it was great! I was driving in Brixton and around Stockwell on my first lesson and it was an easy and fun experience. Clive is very calm and does not stress you at all. I felt totally in control with his guidance. Would recommend it to anyone.

A. K.

I loved my time learning with John! I'd had a few lessons prior but he was great at being confident in me & I ended up passing first time! He was able to book me lessons conveniently to fit around my work schedule and flexible when needed which was greatly appreciated.

M. B.

I have to say i had the BEST EVER driving instructor ever hands down. My Instructors name was Clive for those that don't know him just look for a black Peugeot 208 with just two L plates on the vehicle front and back. I can guarantee you wont regret a single penny spent with him, he is very understanding, very patient and very calm, and if you listen to every Technic he teaches you, your guaranteed to pass. I had my test yesterday in the MItcham Test centre and OF COURSE I PASSED and if wasn't for Clive and the way he teaches i wouldn't be here now. So once again a BIG THANK TO CLIVE for making my learning to drive experience wonderful it was 1000% guaranteed money well spent.

I passed my driving test this week! And I owe it all to Antiono, who has been a brilliant instructor since the very beginning. Antonio is really calm, patient, encouraging and supportive. As a driver with a disability, Antonio worked with me to enable me to develop my driving skills. I recommend any driver with a disability to reach out to Antonio to support them with their driving. He gave me so many valuable tips that I'm going to take forward - thank you so much!

D. S.

A friend of mine recommend me Antonio as a driving instructor. I already had experience driving in other countries but no in the UK. Antonio patiently manage to correct most of my bad habits and made me a better driver. He is sometimes very strict and is hard to please, but I think this are good qualities if you want to learn properly. I would definitely recommend Antonio in particular and the Tuga Driving School in general for learning how to drive properly.

G. A. F. C.

Just passed my test today with Tuga Driving School. Arnaldo was an excellent instructor very calm and patient which was perfect for me. Also, as my test was cancelled for bad traffic conditions and moved for today, and Arnaldo couldn’t come with me as he already had a booked test with another client, he made arrangements for Antonio to come with me to the driving test, who is an excellent instructor, very helpful as well. So I’m really glad to have hired Tuga driving school to pass my test.

D. O.

I didn't see myself as a natural driver but Antonio from Tuga gave me the skills and confidence I needed to pass my test first time. I'd tried several other instructors before Antonio and so I can say with confidence that he is an exceptional teacher and I believe anyone would benefit from his patience and experience. Thanks Tuga!

N. M.

I would recommend Tuga Driving School to learn how to drive. Although it's a fairly young business, Antonio takes great care and pride in his business and will give 100% dedication to you. I passed my test in the first go thanks to Antonio, after only 34hours of driving lessons. The best thing about Antonio as an instructor is his knowledge of the car, the road and the teaching methods. He is all about safety and rules (which I sometimes disagreed with) and as he says: "I do not teach you to pass your test, I teach you to become a good safe driver". From Portuguese origin, Antonio is also a genuinely nice guy and having chats with him in the car has been a pleasure. To conclude, TUGA driving school is a complete package: friendly instructor, efficient teaching, cost friendly and of course the Renault Clio will be your favorite part :)

M. L.

I have had 12 hours of driving lessons with John from Tuga Driving School and I passed my test at first attempt in Mitcham Test Center with only 4 minor faults. John is a very competent instructor, patient, punctual, always happy to help. On top of that, he is a good laugh to drive with and someone you can have a laugh with, which always helps. I have no doubt to recommend him to anyone. John displayed utmost professionalism and is highly reliable. He regularly gave me challenges in every lesson, therefore compelling me, to become a more confident driver. So overall I had an amazing experience learning to drive with Tuga Driving School and a special thanks to John!!

C. O.

Tuga Driving School is about to takeover watch out! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this school, my instructor was Antonio & I couldn't ask for a better instructor, he took his time in my early stages to break down all the basics as well as always tracking my progress so I knew where to improve. Overall best experience I've had, I will never forget this wonderful journey. Thanks Antonio absolute legend! Charles.

D. V.

Hello, first of all i need to mention about instructor Saba, she taught me all traffic rules and show me all possible way in practice test. It was so helpful in the exam which i passed it easily and felt so comfortable in the test. That’s why i really thankful to her. And also her teaching skill is excellent as kind, understandable. Thank you so much TUGA to met me with excellent instructors who prepared me the test very well, I’m so happy to get my driving licence :)

A. S.

First time pass with Clive! He is a very skilled, supportive and patient instructor. Clive makes driving lessons fun and stress-free. By the time of my driving test I felt a very confident driver. Thank you, Clive!!!

D. M. S.

I cannot recommend this driving school enough, it's professionalism and teaching methods are of a very high standard and suitable for anyone, including nervous drivers like me. Antonio was my instructor and I HIGHLY recommend him. His experience as a bus and car driving instructor will not only help you navigate with ease the roads of London but will help you become a very good and most importantly, a safe driver too. He encourages and pushes students to you give their best and to overcome their fears with confidence, which is something I could not find with previous driving instructors. As an individual he is great, friendly, punctual and makes a significant effort to accommodate to his students' needs. I had a great time during my lessons and passed on my first time. Hence, if you are serious and committed about your driving and want to push yourself, this is the company you want to learn with.

L. B.

Antonio was my driving instructor and I have just passed my driving test from the first attempt, which I am very pleased with. I appreciated his patience and stress free teaching style. His instructions were clear and easy to understand; Antonio is a skilled driving instructor and takes pride in his job. I would certainly recommend him.

S.

After learning for years (and failing twice) with other driving instructors, I was getting very disheartened about continuing to learn and have another failed test under my belt. Luckily I found tuga, spoke to Clive and got my lessons booked in within a couple of weeks (I work long hours and clive was very accommodating in getting me convenient slots). Clive was extremely patient, calm and supportive, making my whole driving experience an absolute joy!! Massive thank you to clive for finally getting my license and confidence up! Would reccomend to anyone!

A. S.

Antonio was a great instructor who helps me pass first time. Very determined and passionate about his job. Very funny and Full of good vibes. Most definitely recommend him.

M. N.

I learned to drive with Tuga Driving School in Brixton/Vauxhall area. My instructor was Antonio and I would highly recommended booking some lessons with him! I was very nervous initially but Antonio made me feel so comfortable. Everything was taught at a pace that suited me, I was never pushed into anything too quickly but was encouraged to move on to new things. I passed first time with only 1 minor driving fault! My lessons were detailed and calm and also had a laugh with Antonio. When it came to my test I wasn't nervous I felt really prepared. I definitely recommend Tuga Driving School and Antonio as driving instructor!

P.

My time with Antonio was invaluable and I passed my test with only 1 minor! Thanks to Antonio, my life has changed since passing my test and it was all thanks to his level of teaching and patience. Antonio really understood me as a driver and made sure that I was prepared for driving not only for my test and the real world. I now commute to and from work with confidence and still use the advice and teachings I received from Antonio everyday. I strongly recommend you to use Antonio's services and it is really is the best! Thanks again Antonio, I'm driving happy.

M. S.

Antonio is a wonderful guy, teaches you how to be a confident and solid driver. I would hugely recommended anyone learning to drive in London this. He’s also a very cheerful character to talk to in those many hours you’ll spend in the car!

J. B.

Antonio is a talented driving instructor and an extremely skilled driver. He has tutored both bus and car drivers, giving him an advanced knowledge of the road and vehicles. Unlike many instructors, he doesn't waste time 'teaching' test routes but instead focuses on ensuring that his pupils are above and beyond test-standard before the test date. Each lesson is bespoke and he asks for feedback on the tasks you feel less comfortable with to ensure that they are well covered. Additionally, Antonio takes the time to understand your schedule and how he can best work with you with regards to timing of lessons. I can't recommend Antonio enough. I was a very nervous learner and he constantly encouraged me and made sure that I was confident and able to make good decisions when driving alone. Thank you!

B. L.

I thoroughly recommend Tuga Driving School for top quality driving tuition in a supportive environment. My instructor had a very positive attitude which really helped build my confidence in my driving ability as I progressed. The lessons were excellent value for money as each one was tailored to me as an individual.

K. W.

My experience at Antonio's driving school been incredible. Not only his personality, but also his extraordinary teaching skills, patience and professionalism which made me pass the exam on the first attempt. He is really focused on his students and want them to obtain the best driving skills - even the stubborn ones like me! Thanks to him I became more confident behind the wheel and a much more alert driver. You'll be hard pressed to find as good and passionate an instructor as Antonio. I consider myself lucky to have come across his driving school. Thank you once again for all the knowledge you've passed on to such a challenging student!

M.

John is a great instructor, I passed my test first time with Tuga Driving school. I’ve learnt so much from driving with my instructor and he makes learning to drive so enjoyable, he is so friendly and makes me feel very confident when driving. Thank you john for being my instructor.

T. S.

I've been a driver in Brazil for almost 20 years and picked up some bad habits along the way (hence why I needed refresher lessons). I had lessons with Antonio himself and he's a great instructor, not only for the test but for better driving in general. Passed my test first time!

G. J.

Amazing driving school, first lesson in, amazing instructor Clive. Anxiety is something that affects me a lot, however Clive was an amazing instructor, can trust and amazing at working and helping instruct!

S. A.

John has been a great instructor and it was a pleasure learning from him. He is very friendly and made me feel at ease even when I was nervous. He is stern when he needs to be and I can feel I have improved a lot thanks to his teachings. Highly recommend!

T.

I have to recommend Tuga Driving ! He is the best instructor you can ask for! If you would like to pass but most importantly learn to drive safely contact Tuga Driving School Immediately! Now that I have my license I have achieved my life goal and is now looking for car. Using Tuga Driving School was money well spent! Anthony is very organised and is a very proactive driving instructor. Sooooooooooooooooo Happy I have passed!!!!!!!!!!!!

C. O.

Antonio was a great driving instructor, he doesn't only prepare you for the test but also for real life driving experience. He goes above and beyond the basics of driving which helped me to pass first time with only 3 minors. Thank you Antonio!

L.

A friend had recommended this driving school to me and I must say it is great. My driving instructor was very nice and professional. He was clear in his explanations and patient with my flaws. The lessons were structured effectively, making my progression smooth and covering everything I needed to know for the test. No hour was wasted and I passed on my first attempt, thanks to all the good teaching and tips he had given me. Thank you so much!

A.

I passed my driving test on the first go and it was all thanks to Clive! I had never driven before and at first I was quite a nervous driver, however, after a couple of lessons i felt confident. Clive tells you and also shows you how to do things, so as to break it down and simplify it all so that you really understand what you are doing. He also gives you little tips and tricks on how to do manoeuvres that you will be tested on and he knows all the test routes inside out. At times I didn't think I was going to be able to do my lessons due to work commitments - I am a qualified lawyer and my hours change all the time. Clive worked around my schedule and we did lessons at 6am. I can't rate him highly enough! Thanks Clive :)

N. W.

Antonio is such a fantastic driving instructor and helped me pass first time! Antonio is extremely patient, accommodating, and provides constructive feedback. Antonio's encouragement and positivity played a huge part in helping me pass. I would recommend Antonio in a heartbeat!

H. C.

Exceptional classes, quality training, and informative instruction. In less than 40 hours of driving, I was able to attain a full driving licence by passing the driving practice exam with the help given by Antonio and his car. I cannot recommend this school highly enough.

R. D. G.

“I've been driving for over 20 years on the other side of the road and changing habits is not an easy task, but Antonio's teaching method and patience made it possible. It not only helped me learn new things, it also improved my confidence to drive safely. I definitely recommend Tuga Driving School, a serious company that aims in preparing the student for the real world of driving. Thank you so much Antonio, you are a great professional.”

P. C.

Had my first lesson with Clive today. He was a great instructor and I felt really at ease working with him. Very clear, relaxed and professional. Overall good service. Thanks Clive.

C. B.

Both me and my Brother both passed our driving tests with Clive the first time. He is a great and enjoyable instructor who made my driving and my brothers driving perfect.

H.

I got my license with John. John is an incredibly professional, punctual, patient, experienced and friendly instructor. He explained why drivers had to do certain things while driving in order to drive safely in London which helped me immensely in building good driving habits. This was important as I did so not so much for the sake of passing but more for becoming a safe and confident driver. John also ensured that I did not pick up bad habits along the way and corrected my mistakes promptly during lessons. While John may at times be stern when addressing my mistakes, it prevented me from committing the same mistakes repeatedly, which is what one would expect of a driving instructor. This allowed me to improve with each lesson. I took 2 lessons a week for almost one month and when I took my first test, I accumulated 0 minor faults but I failed because I stepped on the accelerator during the emergency brake exercise due to me being too nervous. Haha. I passed on my second try. In short, if you are looking to become a safe driver and pass the driving test in London, John is the man to look for.

H. F. F.

Using Tuga Driving School was money well spent! 5 Star lessons. I have to recommend Tuga Driving ! He is the best instructor you can ask for! If you would like to pass but most importantly learn to drive safely contact Tuga Driving School Immediately! Helder Ferreira

A. G.

I’m very glad I came across with this school! My first impression was not the best but Antonio was amazing and he did sort it out my problem. Thank you very much! ❤️🙏🏻

S. 1.

Thank you Clive. I am truly grateful to Clive as I passed first time after 8 weeks and my brother passed first time in 4 weeks. He is very calm, patient and very encouraging and enthusiastic. I highly recommend him. Cara B

C. R. P.

Antonio is an excellent professional, showed me all my flaws in his classes and taught me how to correct. Thanks to your great work I was able to pass the practice test and have my driver's license.

M. S.

My 18 year old son has just passed his test following excellent tuition from this school. He learned at just the right pace and soon became confident even in the most challenging London traffic - Vauxhall Cross in the rush hour anyone?! The school collects at, and delivers back to, your home so there is no driving around with another learner in the back seat. And the instructor went out of his way to support a driving test early on a Saturday morning, and booked at only 48 hours notice. You won''t get better service than that!

f. c.

Just passed my driving test with António. is great instructor and make me feel confident well I was taking my driving lessons. Thanks so much to tuga driving school and special to António .

l. g.

I did A two hour driving Lesson with Clive today and I’ll tell you iv had such a bad time with manual and the clutch and everything I wanted to do automatic but Clive told me to try it and see how I feel and if I didn’t get it then we would move on but after an hour my confidence was soo boosted and me and the clutch are now besties and he kept telling me how beautiful is the clutch and now I do believe the clutch is a stunning beautiful part of the car and it’s warmed on me majorly and I’m gonna stick with Clive as he just gets me soo motivated and hyped up for the lesson I can’t wait for the next one!!! Thank you Clive!!!

C. E.

Really great driving school, I highly recommend to anyone learning to drive. I passed first time with my instructor being very professional and fixing my bad habits, teaching me to drive safely on the road.

V. G.

I started having lessons with António after changing from another driving school, it took me a while to adapt to the way António tought me but he managed to get to me. If I had to choose I believe Antonio's way of teaching was much better, he pushed me to do my best, tried to get me to learn stuff as fast and safe as possible. He believes that we should keep on pushing ourselfs a bit more every lesson, that is what learning is about. I really appreciate the patience he had with me and all the resources used to give the explanations were really helpful! Not only were they helpful but he was keen on either sending or directing me to resources where I could study more. There was good organisation as well, he would plan ahead what areas would be more suitable to drive in order for him to teach me new stuff. I passed my test at my first try in Mitcham and couldn't be more happy. I would definitely recommend this school to anyone. :)

W. G.

I would like to thank tugadriving for the great service and the exceptional 5 star instructor John. Friendly, professional and explains things very well. I passed my driving exam first time!! Highly recommended.

L. P.

I passed my driving test two days ago thanks to the best driving instructor John! I was so lucky to get someone like him who made driving so easy and enjoyable!! I was always scared to drive until I met John!!! Florentina Balaj

S. L.

You get what you pay for and with TUGA you can't go wrong. If you have the right attitude, the zeal and determination to pass your test then TUGA is the place for you, with TUGA a great deal of emphasis is placed on excellent driving skills and habits which is not just for passing the test but lessons you'd take with you after the test that will stand you out on the road. As a former student who passed first time with TUGA I'll definitely recommend this driving school!

E. T.

Passed first time in the midst of a pandemic. Clive was a great instructor. Cool, calm, collected and had great experience teaching. I went from zero driving experience to being confident in the car. Clive's experience and attitude to driving is very helpful to new drivers. One thing to note is, due to Tuga Driving School's busy schedule and the number of students, it can sometimes be challenging to schedule in lessons - so keep that in mind and book in advance. Other than that, great school and can easily recommend them.

I chose Tuga Driving School to continue with my driving lessons in London, starting last October. I had previously used an instructor in Oxford and so was not a complete beginner. Antonio was an excellent instructor throughout the last 4 months and almost 10 lessons later, I passed my driving test first try yesterday. He was always very honest with driving feedback, and pushed me to try my very best, without being patronising or confrontational. I really enjoyed my time learning to drive with Antonio and Tuga Driving School, and would recommend him to anyone looking for driving lessons in London!

Got my first time pass with CLIVE!! I can’t recommend this instructor enough: super patient, great explanation behind everything and confident. When I first booked my lessons, I hadn’t even passed my theory, but Clive planned my driving lessons and organised my practical in a way which made up the process so much quicker - I had my theory on 10th May and practical on 11th May- where I passed both. After lockdown eased in April, Clive had called to ensure I had all my 40 hours booked in advance to ensure maximum progress. The way of teaching didn’t feel like it was strict, but very friendly since day one rather than a teacher-student approach that can add fear to learners very easily, especially when new to the roads and driving itself. This made it super easy to get through mistakes and communicating my weaknesses. Along with this, I had requested to do my practical test with music since I noticed better driving in comparison to no music, this was a real life scenario since a lot of drivers drive with music - Clive immediately emailed to find out if this was possible - which it was - so I had the opportunity to take my test with music. The area where my test was held (Norbury) was also new to me, but it was made extremely easy to learn everything from speed limits and location to roundabouts and meet situations - through being completely consistent with booking lessons and staying committed to the learners requirements too. He started his lessons at 5am so that we could get an opportunity on traffic-free roads along with late lessons at 8pm too. 100% recommend!!!

Learning to drive can be a scary thing; especially when you’ve been putting it off for 10 years…. It takes a lot of time and dedication. Luckily, I found Tuga driving school and Clive just when I needed to. My experience throughout was first class: Clive’s patience, attention to detail and relaxed teaching manner meant that I always felt absolutely safe in the car and was able to focus 100% on learning. Having passed my practical examination the first time round- I can really say that it all paid off! Thanks for everything Clive. You really went above and beyond to help me get on the road; and it has been a truly great experience.
