Testimonials

Thanks to the level of service received from accelerate, my 17 year old son has successfully completed his Driving Test - first time and after only 17 hours of tuition.

The personal, tailored two hour sessions helped enormously with the intensity of learning and experience my son gained and I have no hesitation in recommending accelerate.

Nikki Robinson, Yateley, June 2010

I really enjoyed learning with accelerate - it was like being in the car with a mate.  I felt well prepared and was given the confidence to pass my test after just 17 hours of tuition.  Jake Robinson, Yateley, June 2010
Thanks for everything you've done for me Rob - I really appreciate it and wish you the best of luck. I will have no hesitation in recommending you many times.
I have found my driving tuition with accelerate to be a very rewarding experience.  I did not believe that I would pass my test within the short timescales that were suggested - just 3 weeks after my 17th birthday - and I have been on holiday for 1 week of that.  I have enjoyed the very focused (we never stopped driving) but relaxed tuition which has enabled me to pass having had just 26 of the 30 hours originally suggested.  And of course I am delighted with the refund!
John Goddard, Reading Academy Footballer, Sandhurst, June 2010

accelerate is positively different. 

The instructors come to meet you before you commit to anything and when they do arrive they are professionally dressed in their company branded clothing.  

I have been impressed by the great customer service.  I have been kept informed of Lauren's progress either through her feedback forms, by Rob calling me or through Rob coming to see me immediately after a lesson. 

It is clear that accelerate instructors are strong motivators and really do get the best out of the learner driver - I am absolutely delighted with Lauren's result of a first time pass just 12 days after her 17th birthday.  Value for money? Absolutely!  I would 100% recommend accelerate for you or your son/daughter's driving tuition. 

Donna Francis, Bracknell, June 2010 
Rob came to meet Mum and me after I had responded to an advert for a free lesson.  We chose to work with accelerate because of the quality of the service offered including a structured learning plan, and strong progress tracking and feedback.  My lessons with Rob were fun and his ongoing praise filled me with confidence to pass my test after just 15 hours tuition and only 12 days after my 17th birthday.  I was delighted that Rob should recognise my abilities and put me forward for my test at the earliest possible opportunity.  I am now looking forward to my Pass Plus programme.

I have been very impressed with the way that accelerate has got things organised with me quickly (within 1 hour of my first contact) especially after so much delay with other companies. 
Paul Quilter, Hook, June 2010  

It's good to hear that Maxine drove so well on her test – she’s really chuffed.  I’d like to add my thanks for your undoubted skill in getting the best out of her.  I’ve been extremely impressed by your approach to driver training – thoughtful, thorough and (obviously) effective and I’d have no reservations in recommending accelerate  – long may it continue.  Thanks again for your efforts – much appreciated. 

Dave Nicholson, Wokingham, May 2010

Thank you for assisting me with driving lessons for the last few months. As we know, I succeeded, and I couldn't have done it without you. Thank you again.

Narayan Gurung, Camberley, May 2010

'Attention to detail was terrific – you planned around my college and work timetables and the quite specific deadline for passing my test to enable me to secure my university place…........oh, and you even sent me some L-Plates!!  You were extremely flexible, adjusting the programme to suit my changing situation. The idea of providing books/CD-ROM truly enriched the learning experience – I feel that I have a thorough understanding of what safe driving is all about and am inspired to keep practising.  It was great fun – high fives all around when things went well and masses of encouragement on those ‘off days’.  Most importantly you made me believe I could pass ….and I did with just 2 minor driving faults after just 24 hours of professional tuition. Many, many thanks, Rob.'

Katie James, Queen Mary's College, Basingstoke / Mortimer, Berks April 2010. 

'I am delighted to have passed my test after just 15 hours professional tuition, all from accelerate. Rob took care to establish how I like to be taught and taught me in just that way. It was a great learning experience which I strongly recommend.' 
Tom Asker, Farnham / Alton College, April 2010

'I took a good part of my Pass Plus training in the pouring rain, at night, on the motorway (M3/M4/M25/M40). Rob gave me some invaluable tips which will significantly improve both my confidence and my safety when driving in daylight in dry motorway conditions. Moreover I will be able to drive in the foulest of conditions with the comfort that I will be able to cope with almost anything which is thrown at me. I cannot recommend the Pass Plus course strongly enough....and I have been driving for more than a year!!'

Lydia Simplicio, Maidenhead, April 2010

I have been driving for quite a while but did not appreciate the level that I was at.   Rob quickly assessed my capabilities and adjusted not just the technical approach, but also my manner, so that I was able to pass my test with just 3 minor errors and be a significantly better driver than I was before.  You have been really helpful, Rob. Thanks.' Stewart Maclaren, Ash Vale, March 2010

The great thing about driving with Rob is the mutual respect that prevails.  He really does do what he says he will do - that is to inspire confidence and competence.  He has regularly amended the way he does things to suit my exact needs and the end result of just 3 minor errors in my practical test speaks for itself. Excellent job, Rob.  Many thanks.  Ashley Deutrom, Bracknell, March 2010

Thank you so much for all your encouragement, support, time and patience you gave to Ashley to pass his test. We knew from the day we met you that you were really considerate and thoughtful.

You are a great instructor..............

Wendy Deutrom, Bracknell, March 2010

I had a great time learning with Rob. It was great fun and with his accelerated learning approach on an intensive course I was able to pass my test first time, after just 18 hours professional tuition and 4 hours of other practice. Thanks, Rob. 

Kim Pearson, High Wycombe, March 2010

I chose Rob as my driving tutor because of his proactive nature and professionalism displayed from the first time we met.  I have been driving as a learner for a number of years.  Within 12 hours of tuition Rob got me to a point where I went into the test confident that I would pass....and I did, first time!  Lydia Simplicio, Maidenhead, February 2010

I was impressed with your professionalism and feel quite reassured by your commitment.  Andrew Fry (Parent), Walton-on-Thames, Jan 2010 

 

Thank you very very very much for everything you have done for me.  From the first day I met you I  knew I was in the safest hands.' Lingsted Banda, Frimley, Dec 2009

The initial consultation proved very valuable in understanding what a quality service is offered by accelerate.  Rob has delivered on all his promises, including reducing the number of lessons from that originally planned saving David over £50.  He has kept me fully informed of David's progress throughout and has fully addressed any difficulties encountered.  I strongly recommend that concerned parents engage with accelerate for their son/daughter's driving tuition.
Jacqueline Chandler, Yateley, Dec 2009 

 

I used 2 other driving instructors who assured me that I was 'test ready' but still I failed.

I then found Rob at accelerate who very quickly found and fixed the problems.  After 10 hours of corrective tuition I passed my test.  Thanks Rob.

Faruq, Chertsey, Nov 2009

Hycene was impressed with the professional approach and flexibility as to when Rob was able to fit in his lessons.  Roger Wilman, Walton on Thames, Oct 2009

 

I found Rob to be a very patient and competent instructor.  He teaches to a very high standard allowing me to pass with just 3 minor mistakes and one of those was down to me stalling!  I am now taking the Pass Plus programme with Rob.  Leo Burdock, Yateley, Sept 2009
 
I saw great progress in Leo's driving standard within a very short time.  Rob set clear expectations with Leo and me before taking on Leo as a Learner Driver.  He kept me fully informed of progress throughout his training programme.  The emphasis on SAFE Driving is important to me and I am confident that Leo is safe in the driving conditions in which he has been taught.  Pass Plus - an absolute must!  Frances Burdock, Yateley, Sept 2009 
 
I had a good deal of off-road driving experience before meeting Rob.  After an initial assessment and no more than 10 hours of focused professional tuition I passed my test first time.  Thanks Rob.  Freddie, Finchampstead, Sept 2009
 
I was delighted with Rob's approach of keeping me engaged in Freddie's driving progress.  He did everything in his power to get Freddie through his test in the shortest time possible without compromising safety.  I would highly recommend Rob/accelerate to any parent looking for a highly professional driving instructor. Jane, Finchampstead, Sept 2009
