Testimonials

Below are testimonials from our pupils that have passed their driving test with Sash’s Driving School.

Just a note recommending Sash. I probably wasn’t the easiest pupil she’s ever had, but she was extremely patient with me and my irrational fear of roundabouts. She’s a real petrol head and knows cars and driving inside out.ย  Can’t recommend highly enough, even though she will try and convince you that French cars are better than German.

Excellent instructor.

Julian Maynard

So happy to have had Sash take over my lessons from my previous instructor! She made the lessons enjoyable as well as making me feel as though I was improving with each lesson I had ๐Ÿ™‚

Alyce Walther

Having had a previous driving instructor who made me feel bad when I didn’t succeed… Coming over to sash really allowed me to learn In my own style and grow my confidence. Sash is a fantastic instructor she cares about you. And if you listen to what she has to say you will pass just as I did thanks to her!ย  Thank you for everything you did for me! Really 1 in a million xx

Bronwyn Bezant

Have to say a MASSIVE thank you to Sash for helping me pass my driving test! I’m so glad that I chose her as my instructor!ย  She has a great balance between encouraging your strengths, which kept me feeling positive, as well as being honest and helping me correct my weaknesses so I could progress as much as possible. You can tell she has her students best interests at heart, and her patience and sense of humour helped so much when I was feeling low on confidence!ย  I have already recommended her to several friends, you’d be daft not to choose her! She’s a star! xx

Started off with Sash in late 2016, hasn’t been more than 7 months and I’ve never felt so confident in driving a car. She has made me more aware and more focused and also determined to pass my test and focus on the certain aspects that were letting me down. Thankfully I passed and I couldn’t thank her enough! If you’re going to go with anyone around the areas Sash covers, then go with her! You’ll thank me later!

I’ve had a lack of confidence with driving for years and had a few different instructors until Sash, she is one of the easiest people to get on with and feeling comfortable being taught by and also explains things in a way that easily make sense.

Couldn’t have asked for a better instructor, would and will be recommending to absolutely everyone!

Darren Patwal

I have recently passed my test with Sash as my instructor. She has a way of making the lessons interesting and engaging – she ensures that the information sticks and is happy to go over anything multiple times until you understand fully. One reason that Sash is a good instructor, is because she is down to earth, interesting and makes driving lessons fun. I am going to sign up for my Pass Plus course with her as I have gelled with her. Thank you Sash, for helping me to pass my test!

Hannah Hing

During my time as a learner I have had 4 different instructors and none compare to Sash! She has let me find my own style of driving and helped me to improve my skills to pass my test, I would not have done it without her, thank you!

I think Sash is a great patient instructor, Sash made me feel very confident in myself and itโ€™s like learning with a friend. I am very happy I chose Sash to teach me to drive I am very thankful for her time.

Bobbie Bates

I am so happy I learnt with Sash, I passed first time with only 4 minors after learning for 9weeks. Sash is a brilliant instructor and I felt comfortable with her from the very first lesson, I could ask her about anything no matter how silly it might have been. It was a very enjoyable experience and I would highly recommend. Thank you for everything Sash.

Charlotte Martin

Thank god for Sash! I found out about her about 6 weeks before I was due to take my test. I have never met someone so dedicated to their job! She corrected my mistakes without making me feel bad. She gave me a lot of advice, which I will be using, even now after passing my test first time with her! She is a bubbly and happy person and makes you feel at ease rather than nervous. I will be recommending Sash to anyone I know who wants to learn to drive. Thank you Sash for getting me through it all ๐Ÿ™‚

Louise Moore

I passed with Sash! Every lesson was informative and fun at the same time. Sash was easy to talk to and made me feel very comfortable. Sheโ€™s great!! I would recommend her to anyone for lessons. Thanks a million for helping me pass!

Beth Harvey

I started my lessons again this March after previously giving up just before I turned 18 (now 22). I was very nervous about starting up again and kept putting it off but when I decided to give Sash a call and book a lesson she put me at ease. This was the same with my lessons – I felt at ease from beginning to end. The way Sash teaches seems to help the information stick, and helps you to actually understand what you are doing rather than just doing it. I passed my test on 19/09/2014 and I really can’t thank Sash enough! ๐Ÿ™‚

Megan Withers

Sash is the most amazing lady ever, she explains things so you understand in your own way. She helped me loads with my nerves and is always up for a laugh. I wouldnโ€™t know what I would have done without her guidance, she is a very special lady and a pleasure to drive with. ๐Ÿ™‚

Billie Reynolds

First of all I was pleased to meet Sash. It was very easy to learn with Sash, she told me exactly what I needed to do, she was very calm, very professional and made me feel confident in my driving and I passed with 3 minors.

Tom Case

What can I say! Other than Sash is an awesome instructor! From my first lesson to my last, she has been nothing but helpful, supportive and extremely knowledgeable! She doesn’t just teach you how to pass the test, she gives you the knowledge for a life time of safe driving! I would highly recommend her!ย  Cheers Sash!

Jake Kelly

I passed first time in Basildon with Sash. Sash is a very patient instructor and teaches you to do the right thing on the road. Sash is a likeable instructor and made me feel at ease every lesson. I will highly recommend Sash to any learner driver any day! Thanks Sash! You are the best XXX

Sash is a wonderful instructor, highly recommended. She may not have as many stars on her webpage but she knows what she is doing. She is focused and very attentive to details. She will work backwards if necessary to support a learner in ensuring that success is achieved. I passed my test with just 8 lessons. Sash comes highly recommended. She is the best. Thanks Sash!

Theresa Williams

Sash is a great instructor! I am so glad that someone recommended her to me! The lessons were great, and easily understandable. There was always the fun times even if there were silly mistakes made (only a few) but to say that I passed my test first time with only 4 minors proves that she knows her stuff! I’d recommended sash to anyone!
