Reviews of Andrew Usher Driving School
O. S.I would recommend Andrew to anyone looking to learn to drive and pass the test. He is excellent, one of the best instructors in Oxford. I drove with other instructors, before I started taking lessons with him, with no success, it was a waste of time and money. You might find it slow at the start, but just stay with Andrew! His teaching is structured, he is following a very effective programme he's developed, which covers all aspects of the driving and road safety. Andrew will prepare you well for the driving part of test and for manoeuvring. He will explain in detail and practise with you every aspect of each of the tested manoeuvres. I passed the test on the 1st attempt with him. Once you passed the test, you will start driving independently with confidence, because you were well trained!
S. N.Last summer, when I started my driving lessons I was fairly anxious about the risks of the road and lacking confidence about my ability to learn to drive. Andrew was the perfect choice of driving instructor: he takes a calm and patient approach, he is positive and understanding, he is friendly and easy to talk to. What’s more, Andrew’s teaching ensures a good grasp of the basics and control of the car before moving on to the riskier aspects of driving. This approach was perfect for me and Andrew’s training not only allowed me to pass my test on the first attempt but also has set me up to be a confident driver every day. On top of being an excellent driving instructor, Andrew is a genuinely lovely man, it's nice to feel comfortable and have a chat with him as you're driving around Oxford. I strongly recommend learning to drive with Andrew!
N. P.Andrew is a fantastic driving instructor. He is incredibly detailed with his explanations, patient and encouraging. I was a very nervous driver and my confidence was boosted with his help and support. I cannot recommend him enough. I passed first time thanks to Andrew!
S. H.Andrew is a fantastic driving instructor. From my first lesson right up to passing my test he made sure he put me at ease. He's the first instructor I've had who has really focused on ensuring you're in control of the car and feel confident in what you're doing. Though it may seem like a slow process at first, once you master the basics with him you'll progress rapidly. An absolutely brilliant instructor and I can't recommend him highly enough!
M. S.Andrew is an incredible driving instructor. I've had other instructors in the past and none had made me feel as calm or capable as Andrew did. Not only does Andrew give you the skills and prepare you very well for passing your test he also focuses on providing you with the skills for after passing the test so you can be a calm, capable and safe driver once you have passed.
I cannot recommend him highly enough.
W. C.Andrew is a great instructor, I spent many months with him and thoroughly enjoyed the time spent driving around Oxford. I was particularly impressed with his calm attitude and attention to detail which I believe really aided the learning process. I managed to pass my driving test first time thanks to him.
It seems prices in oxford are quite high for driving lessons, but Andrew offers very good competitive rates and I highly recommended learning with him as he will ensure that you know everything you need to know.
He can be very busy so it’s always good to book lessons in advance!
L.Andrew is a superb instructor. If clutch control and a systematic approach to learning is what you're after, then he's your man. The lessons start slowly and build until you feel confident enough to tackle any situation on any road. I started having had very little previous experience. Over two months he patiently took me through all that was necessary to pass and I'm happy to say he helped enable me to pass first time. I'd highly recommend the Andrew Usher Driving School.
B. S.Andrew is an extremely nice man and an accomplished driving instructor. He ensures you have excellent control of the vehicle and therefore allows you to feel confident both in driving around the city and in mastering the manoeuvres necessary to pass the UK driving test.
Andrew is extremely flexible both in the timings of driving lessons and in pick-up and drop-off locations. He clearly cares about his students' progression and welfare. He takes time to carefully explain the different aspects of driving as you progress through the syllabus.
I would highly recommend Andrew to learn to drive with in Oxford. What set him apart as a driving instructor, in particular, was his gentle and calming influence and his constant positive outlook both on driving and on life in general.
D. C.As an Oxford DPhil student who had trouble learning to drive at home in London, I would highly recommend Andrew Usher if you are looking to learn to drive while studying in Oxford. Andrew is _excellent_ at ensuring your safety in the car, and at making you feel confident and at ease on the road. He was especially relaxing to talk to on my two test days (I was exceptionally unlucky on the first!). Andrew is a very nice man and was never over-critical of my faults. I feel like a very competent new driver after passing with Andrew. Although you will have more lessons than the average learner with Andrew (I probably had about 80 hours over a 7 month period with no private practice), he will give you an incredibly thorough grounding in the essentials of car control. Do not be put off if you are not on the main roads after 10-15 hours with Andrew, even if you have done some lessons elsewhere before. This is all part of Andrew's game plan to ensure you leave him with a skill for life, not just for the test. My only slight gripes with Andrew are that he is very popular and has a long waiting list, meaning that it was sometimes hard to get lessons in! He also has young unruly children, which has meant slashing half an hour or cancelling my AM lessons on a couple of occasions! Further, he doesn't offer a mock test service or the pass plus, which I would have liked to do with him. Despite these minor gripes, I can't fault Andrew at all for the standard of his instruction. Although his prices are a little on the high side, the cost is worth it, as if you choose Andrew you will receive excellent quality tuition from a safe, friendly and genuinely caring instructor. If you put the time and work in with him, I'm confident he will make sure that you pass, and pass well!
A. R.Andrew is a patient, friendly and methodical instructor, who is exceptionally generous both with his time (as far as availability will allow- he is justifiably popular!) and his advice. As someone who was by no means a natural or confident driver, and who found all aspects of driving challenging, Andrew was unfailing patient and encouraging- he even put back his family holiday by a day to accommodate my test date!
I would not hesitate to recommend Andrew to anyone; he is an outstanding instructor, who prioritises safety and complete mastery of the basics, but more importantly, he made our lessons, and driving full stop, enjoyable.
