Louise, Bradford

“I contacted Neil and asked could he help me. I’d failed 9 tests and spent 15 grand (?!). I’d tried hypnosis/intensives… you name it, I’d tried it. I would have sacked it off years ago if I didn’t need to get it for work. To say I was SICK OF IT, was an under-statement.

When Neil actually complimented my perseverance and said he liked a challenge, I liked him straight away! I told him when I met him I was a reasonable driver.. until I did something crazy, he quickly realised I knew myself.

I KNOW I was not easy to teach! Many had tried and many had failed! It sounds clichéd, but Neil took me as I was – warts and all, whilst subtly building my confidence and skill. He literally never gave up on me which is quite something when you have started failing on hesitation because you’re constantly anxious and on edge. Add to that that multiple driving test failures is this big weird jokey taboo… that really starts to hurt with each ribbing you get.

Neil was resourceful. He’d watch my patterns and frankly erratic behaviours! He’d say the same thing a 100 times, somehow… calmly. I felt very safe with Neil and he really made me laugh which was a genuine help and stress reliever.

2 weeks ago… 22 YEARS after my first lesson (which unfortunately was not with Neil) I passed my 10th test!!! If I can pass it anyone can! But do yourself a favour… go with Neil. Thanks a million Neil! I won’t forget you!”

Joel Potter, Bradford

“I passed my test today after first starting lessons 12 years ago. I am not exaggerating when I say today is one of the best days of my life, I have suffered from anxiety and panic attacks at the thought of driving lessons, never mind the test. The main reason I am typing this as a licensed driver is due to Neil’s patience, attitude and expertise. I have had 3 previous driving instructors and none of them had an ounce of the care and consideration shown by Neil throughout my lessons, for example I failed my first test with Neil due to a silly mistake and he ensured I did not give up, he built up my confidence and took the time to understand my issues, for me that is what sets him apart. He also has a wonderful way of explaining things and his manner and informal approach is something that was of huge benefit to me. If you are looking for someone to not only help you pass your test but care about the way you pass your test then Neil is for you…(You will have to put up with some truly terrible jokes)… However he more than compensates for that. Thank you Neil, me and my family are eternally grateful.”

Zoe Wood, Bradford

“When I began my driving lessons with Neil I had very little confidence but with Neil’s calm and patient manner this soon changed and my confidence on the road improved dramatically. Neil is a fantastic driving instructor and he makes you feel at ease with his great sense of humor. I would definitely recommend Neil to anyone who is thinking of beginning driving lessons.”

Paul Murphy, Bradford

“Great instructor, the best about. Wish I had first test with him. Recommend him to anyone. Great person to learn from and explains things well. I passed 6th Jan 2016 and thank him very much. True, honest person.”

Sarah Wood, Bradford

“Neil is a very calm and understanding instructor. I would highly recommend him for anyone who is nervous or lacking in confidence, as I was at the beginning and he made me overcome it very quickly. He is very musical (beautiful singing) with a good sense of humour, and he teaches in a way that helps you remember, with little stories and saying. I can’t thank you enough Neil, I put passing first time down to your wonderful teaching.”

Duane Huntley, Bradford

“When I first began my lessons with Neil, I didn’t have a clue what I was doing. Due to Neil’s calm and positive teaching technique I quickly got the hang of it and started to believe I could be on the road in no time. He isn’t afraid to have a laugh with you but will also insure you fully understand all aspects of driving instead of just simply telling you what to do. Last week I passed my test with only 3 minor faults and I can’t thank him enough… P.s. He will sing so I advise you buy some ear plugs… Don’t make the same mistake I did.”

Louise Harrison, Bradford

“With Neil I passed my test the first time with only 4 minors! At the beginning I was a nervous wreck but he was very patient and was really good at explaining things in a way I’d understand. He’s a really amazing driving instructor and I can’t recommend him enough. (He also has a lovely singing voice haha!) Thanks Neil!”

Marc Mckenny, Bradford

“Passed on my first attempt thanks to Neil’s fab teaching and prepping for the test! Highly recommended instructor with fun, easy lessons and lots of patience given. Value for money as I had plenty of actual driving, learning and experience on the road that boosted my confidence. Thanks for all your time and effort! No more L plates for me!”

Laura J, Bradford

“Thanks to Neil I managed to pass my driving test with only 4 minors although I thought I was never going to learn to drive. Now I feel confident about myself. A great driving instructor. Would recommend to anybody!”

Oliver Grice, Bradford

“What can I say, I’ve always believed I simply just wasn’t one of those people who would have the concentration to be a great driver. I was wrong, Neil’s teaching methods, persistence and passion for teaching people how to be a safe and courteous driver of the road has now lead me to passing my test. If you want a funny, witty, very friendly, handsome (haha) and a driving instructor who will adapt to the way you learn and get you passing in no time, Neil’s your man. Just want to say Thank you Neil, for having the confidence in me, when I didn’t have any at all.”

Jonjo Horne, Bradford

“Neil Morrison is an excellent driving instructor, his patience and calm manner is great if you ever feel nervous behind the wheel. He is a very friendly person, and will quickly make you feel comfortable and calm. I would not be able to recommend him enough. You would definitely enjoy learning to drive with Neil.”

Matthew Adams, Bradford

“I can’t recommend Neil enough. He has a great method of instilling the information you need and makes you feel at ease with the light humour. Thanks for all your help Neil and don’t forget to look out for those pesky green Kawasaki bikes when you’re turning!”

Lulu Lynch, Bradford

“Neil is an excellent instructor. He’s very patient and explains things clearly and with a sense of humour. Under Neil’s patient tuition and guidance, he steered me into passing my test 1st time. Thank you, Neil.”

Emma Winter, Bradford

“Neil is a fantastic driving instructor. Both my partner and I were taught to drive by Neil and we both passed first time! HIGHLY recommended. A BIG thank you to Neil for all his support, patience and encouragement.”

Martin Merrett, Bradford

“I found Neil to be an excellent instructor. He is patient, informative and funny. He inspires confidence from the start. I’d definitely recommend him.”

J. Lenski, Bradford

“I chose to have my lessons with Neil because of all the positive reviews on his website, and it’s safe to say they were all right; I did two weeks of intensive lessons with him and passed first time with only six minor faults. I couldn’t have chosen a better driving instructor. Brilliant guy, I’d highly recommend him to anyone!”

Glen Berriman, Bradford

“Neil is an excellent driving instructor, having had little experience driving in the past he had a tough challenge ahead of him. Amazingly Neil managed to stay calm with me and his instructions were very clear to follow. He always offered support where needed. The things I’ve learnt from Neil I will continue to use, I’ll never be too scared to use plenty of gas :) I started with Neil in January and managed to pass first time in June, I put this down to how much of a fantastic, calm and patient instructor Neil is.”

Jonathan Miller, Bradford

“If you’re at all nervous or hesitant when it comes to driving, Neil’s the man you need to get you through your test. He’s extremely patient and has a way of putting you at ease; even in the most harrowing of driving situations. He’s clearly very experienced and is full of all sorts of tips and techniques that make even the most complex manoeuvres seem simple. Absolutely top bloke – couldn’t have asked for a better instructor. Looking forward to booking my Pass Plus with Neil very soon.”

Andy Morrell, Bradford

“Passed on Valentine’s Day. With Neil it didn’t take long to feel comfortable and get relaxed, he went with me on my test which I think helped me a lot. Only got 3 minors. Excellent instructor. Very patient, funny guy who clearly enjoys his job. He knows the test routes incredibly well and ensures that there are no surprises on test. I really enjoyed being taught by Neil and would recommend him to anyone. A+ Can’t thank you enough.”

Adetutu Adebakin, Bradford

“Neil is an excellent instructor, he makes sure you understand everything. Passed first time using Neil despite previously having numerous tests with other instructors.”

Esther Randle, Bradford

“If you are looking for an excellent driving instructor who is very patient and who will take you through all the important and necessary driving lessons including manoeuvres, then Neil Morrison is your man. I started taking lessons in March and totally from scratch (because I was new to driving) and, by the end of October, I was ready for my test. I sat my practical driving test in November and I passed. I am very delighted and happy and I will recommend Neil any day.”

Rachel Ola, Bradford

“A lovely and fun driving instructor. Neil is very patient and his teaching skills are brilliant. Every lesson was productive and increased my driving skills. I passed my second time.”

Sarah Luccock. Bradford

“Neil is a fantastic driving instructor. His patience, knowledge and fun sense of humour gave me the confidence and ability to pass my test first time. Always felt that I was making progress because he spent time explaining techniques and had lots of useful tips for manoeuvres. Definitely highly recommend Neil. “

Nathan Walker, Bradford

“Neil’s an excellent driving instructor and guided me to passing my test today. I started learning in February and since then he’s always strived to make every lesson fun and enjoyable, while also making sure you know every driving trick, manoeuvre and technique 110% through and through, in order to improve your overall standard.

He’s been teaching people to drive for years and that experience really shines through, never becoming frustrated or going too fast to follow. Even though I failed my first test, he continued to help me with any issues or faults with my driving to help me feel more comfortable and confident the second time round. He made the entire test seem quick and easy, I’ll definitely be booking my Pass Plus with him as well as recommending him to everyone I know.”

Vadim Z, Bradford

“Neil is a truly excellent driving instructor that is really hard to find, especially in Bradford area. Passed with flying colours thanks to Neil, would definitely recommend.”

Tony Lambert, Bradford

“Neil Morrison is truly a 5-star instructor. He is reliable, honest, enthusiastic, passionate and very experienced in what he does. He is friendly, full of life, patient and goes out of his way to make your lessons much more enjoyable. He gives you lots of encouragement and gives you confidence when its needed. I would definitely recommend him to anyone requiring driving instruction and his pricing is fair as well. I wish you and your family all the best in the future Neil. See you very soon for my Pass Plus.”

Vijay Deshpande, Bradford

“Passed in 1st attempt with 5 minors on Jan 25, 2013. Neil is a truly professional instructor, supports you to gain the necessary skills. I would definitely recommend him to anyone as he is patient and has a high level of knowledge to share making it easy for you to pass your test!”

Hannah Ferry, Eccleshill

“Passed on my 3rd attempt with only 1 minor with Neil! (1st test with another instructor.) Neil is truly the best driving instructor (I’ve had three). He is extremely knowledgeable and goes into every little detail to make your test seem ‘easy’ – which it felt like! Very patient and has great, innovative ways of teaching. Oh and not to mention his humour – very cheesy but makes you feel at ease from your very first lesson! Thank you so much Neil, very appreciative!”

Tadge Sulich, Bradford

“If you are thinking of taking lessons in and around the Bradford/Leeds area, Neil is definitely the man to contact. I have been with Neil for the last few months and passed 2nd time on 7/1/2013. He is a very knowledgeable instructor and really knows his stuff. Nice, polite, friendly and relaxed atmosphere. Thanks again Neil.”

Hayley Topham, Bradford

“Neil Morrison is a fantastic driving instructor. I passed yesterday with 3 minors! He makes lessons fun and enjoyable and shows enthusiasm throughout. You can tell he loves his job which makes you love your lessons! I would definitely recommend him to anyone as he is patient and has a high level of knowledge to share making it easy for you to pass your test!”

James Tuohy, Bradford

“Neil is a fantastic character who was a pleasure to learn with. He pulled out all the stops to get me through my test. Genuinely passionate about teaching, absolutely first class. Patient and understanding, he could read how I was feeling better than I could. He always knew when to push me and when to ease off. Couldn’t recommend Neil more highly.”

Sean McKinley, Eccleshill

“I had past my test 20 years ago so coming back to driving I was nervous as hell but Neil is a great instructor that will go over the weak spots of your driving until you have got it perfect. I would recommend Neil to anybody who is just starting to learn to drive, or like myself is coming back to driving. A great bloke with a good sense of humour. He supports Liverpool FC — I would have given him 2 points if he had been a Man U fan!”

Andy Green, Bradford

“Passed first time with Neil. With him it didn’t take long from sitting in the driver’s seat for the first time to passing with 3 minors. Excellent instructor. Very patient, funny guy who clearly enjoys his job. He knows the test routes incredibly well and ensures that there are no surprises on test. I really enjoyed being taught by Neil and would recommend him to anyone.”

Heather Baylis, Bradford

“I passed first attempt today with Neil and he taught me from the very beginning when I had never sat in a drivers seat and didn’t even realise there were 3 pedals in a car! His friendly, enthusiastic approach made me feel so relaxed and I enjoyed the whole experience. I would recommend him to absolutely everyone! Definitely the best driving instructor around!”

Former pupil, Bradford

“If only everyone was as thorough, dedicated and honest as Neil. Top man! And really funny… most importantly he will get you through with flying colours. He loves his job and it shows.”

Daniella Lewis, Bradford

“Horay, recently passed 1st time under Neil’s instruction! I was a very nervous learner initially as I had taken some lessons almost 20 years ago in a tiny town in the middle of nowhere and gave up! So the thought of learning to drive in busy city traffic filled me with fear! But with thanks to Neil’s patience, support and some help from kinky corners (!) my confidence was built and he made my lessons both informative and fun. Beep beep will be on the roads soon! Would highly recommend Neil.”

Baji Babu, Bradford

“Neil is a perfect driving instructor. He is very supportive and very patient and professional. We can enjoy learning driving from him. He makes us relaxed with his sense of humour. I would recommend him to anyone who is in search of a very good driving instructor.”

Iru, Bradford

“After failing my first driving test and being told I should be nowhere near a road, I thought I needed a hundred lessons. Neil corrected fundamental issues with my driving in one or two lessons, and transformed my driving overnight. If you want to pass your driving test, then choosing Neil is a no brainer.”

Dominic, Bradford

“Neil was a brilliant driving instructor for me – he has an incredible amount of patience and knows how to tailor the experience to you and the things you struggle in. After every lesson you always feel like you’ve progressed further in your driving, making you feel a lot more confident. At one point I was struggling with roundabouts, and Neil changed the lesson plan in order to help me get past that. He’s a really approachable guy and being taught by him was an absolute joy! Neil is an amazing instructor and I think it’s safe to say I will miss my lessons with him greatly. Thanks for everything, Neil!”

Jack Hepworth, Bradford

“Passed my test few weeks ago with 3 minors. Neil was brilliant with me from start to finish. Took a while for me to get going but he was very patient and he tailored the learning around me. Every lesson was laid back and fun but you’d always walk away feeling like a better driver. Neil is a top guy and I would recommend him to anyone wanting to learn. I will definitely miss the lessons and I’m very grateful for having such a great instructor. Thanks Neil!”

Ruman, Bradford

“Neil was really helpful when I was learning to drive. He made sure that I fully understood what he taught me and I learnt everything relatively quickly thanks to him. He made the lessons more fun with his out of tune singing! Overall he is the bestest instructor and friend and thanks to him I have passed and am over the moon.”

Raj, Bradford

“I finally passed my test with Neil as my instructor. I knew how to drive (or thought I did, having driven over 100,000 miles before, in other countries), but did not know how to drive consistently and correctly enough to pass the UK test. I had already failed 3 attempts before meeting Neil. There was a lot of ground to cover to unlearn bad driving habits that I had accumulated and been accustomed to over the years, before relearning safe and correct driving. Neil expertly made me aware of all my bad driving habits, and through providing extremely simple tips to overcome them and gently cajoling and supporting me in equal measure, ensured that I passed with only 3 minor errors – a testimony to his ‘different strokes for different folks’ approach to imparting good driving skills. Really grateful to Neil for not only getting me successfully through the test, but also teaching me to be a good driver – his tips for safe and correct driving will not be easily forgotten. I would wholeheartedly recommend Neil to anybody looking for a very effective, friendly yet results-orientated driving instructor.”

Jozie, Bradford

“A patient, friendly instructor with great teaching methods. I could not fault Neil at all from beginning to end and would recommend him to anyone in a shot. It was a bitter sweet moment passing my test as I genuinely will miss the lessons! All in all a great experience and passing will make such a difference to mine and my children’s lives. Thank you :)”

Scott, Bradford

“Neil is a great guy and a fantastic driving instructor. I had my driving lessons in Bradford with him in 2008 and have since recommended him to a few members of my friends and family. I found his relaxed nature worked well for me in learning, especially in the early days. The joke he told me before my test practically had me laughing all the way round! Total legend.”

Gemhaigh, Bradford

“PASSED FIRST TIME WITH THE BEST EVER DRIVING INSTRUCTOR. Would definitely recommend him to anyone. Neil helped me overcome my fear of driving and was more determined to help me pass my test first time and become the first female in my family to ever pass a driving test. Neil is very patient, reliable and friendly and helps you feel safe and secure while driving. Neil has a great sense of humour and has a great knowledge of driving. I don’t know how I could ever begin to thank him. Great job Neil, thank you so much for helping me and my children gain a bit of freedom.”

Gareth, Bradford

“Neil is an awesome driving instructor. He is really patient, friendly & generally a really nice guy. His tuition is delivered in a very pupil friendly way. I always have a good laugh with Neil as he has become a friend rather than just a driving instructor.”

Somera, Bradford

“Excellent driving instructor. I really recommend having Neil as an driving instructor. I had so many problems with my driving however Neil managed to fix them all without losing his temper which most instructors do. He’s funny, enjoyable, and down to Earth… and I passed my first drivng test and that’s all thanks to Neil. If it wasn’t for him I wouldn’t have done it.”

Greg, Eccleshill

“Great driving instructor. Everything was explained clearly and Neil spots and corrects bad habits quickly. He’s also one of the most patient people I’ve met. Plus lessons were always a good laugh! I would definitely recommend Neil to anyone who wants to learn to drive.”

Mark W, Bridgwater

“Passed first time with Neil with only three minors. I have had two other driving instructors besides Neil as I kept moving areas before passing and Neil is definitely the best one I had. Patient, understanding and extremely knowledgeable about the mentality and skills that will get you through your test. Neil covered all the tricky areas of the test routes in lessons so during the test every difficult route the examiner took me around I had covered with Neil. The lessons are really enjoyable as Neil is easy to chat to and has a great sense of humour. I have recommended Neil to all my friends who are mature learners like I was and have been putting off doing their test. Thanks Neil and hope to see you out on your motorbike someday.”

Danny Wheeler, Bradford

“Neil Morrison is a must have accessory if you are learning to drive, he has been my only instructor and is definitely unique! His sense of humour makes learning fun and enjoyable yet his knowledge and the way he implements it is second to none! I would strongly recommend Neil as I couldn’t have asked for anything more from an instructor who has also become a friend during my time learning with him.”

Simon McQuiston, Bradford

“The teaching of the driving skills and techniques was very useful and was at a very high standard, this was very helpful towards passing my test. Had great fun during lessons and would recommend Neil to anyone who was looking to take lessons.”

Chris Doyle, Pudsey

“I recently passed my test, first time. Thanks to the professional and patient tuition of my instructor. His well explained and friendly approach helped a lot. And always made to feel confident and relaxed with him.

I would definitely recommend him.”

Niall Dunne, Bradford

“The Best! Got me through my test in 3 months with only 4 minors. The lessons are very relaxed and enjoyable. I highly recommend you take lessons with Neil.”

Anton Grizzle, Bradford

“Helps to build confidence and develop you into a safe and proficient driver, whilst ensuring you have all the skills needed to pass your test. You learn at a comfortably quick pace, but will always review weak points. Interesting and varied lessons.”

Rab Bashir, Bradford

“Hi, Neil has been my driving instructor for the last year. He has trained me to become a driving instructor. His level of instruction is very good through the year and he has a good sense of humour. I would recommend Neil to anyone interested in wanting to drive.”

Jonny Cowan, Bradford

“Fantastic Instructor. Very patient and supportive and the lessons were always very fun. Passed 1st time, 5minors!!”

Thomas Anderson, Pudsey

“Very patient instructor. I always felt like I improved after each lesson. And I passed first time with only 2 minors!!”

Matthew, Bradford

“Neil is the pefect driving instructor. He has the perfect balance between teaching and having a good time. Made me laugh every lesson with his wacky humour.

Parts that I was stuggling with, he stood by me to make sure that I had it perfect before the big test. He helped a lot with the nerves which has always been an issue when perfoming at my best.”

skrrrrrr, Bradford

“First class instructor! Relaxed, friendly, patient and understanding; Neil skilfully transformed me from nervous novice to confident driver in an amazingly short time – highly recommended!”

Jamie Topham, Bradford

“I passed my driving test a while ago now and hadn’t have had the chance to come on here. Neil was an awesome instuctor who makes every lesson different and more enjoyable. His crazy methods about good looking celebs sunbathing behind the wheels helps you a lot and brings much comedy value to the hour.”

Jess, Bradford

“I recently passed my test thanks to Neil. He’s a great instructor — lessons were always interesting and amusing! I failed my test twice with another instructor (two years ago) so was nervous about starting again. I was more relaxed and confident with Neil and he prepared me well for the test by pointing out where most people go wrong. I managed to pass on my first attempt. I’d recommend Neil to anyone wanting to learn to drive.”
