I was taught to drive by my parents, obviously picking up a lot of bad habits. 3 weeks to my driving test I thought I had better get some lessons and got Mike. Phew did he teach me a lot in that first hour! But totally worth it, as 3 weeks later, I passed my test first time, and it was all down to Mike’s teaching! Instead of teaching only in aim of passing the driving test, he taught me to a better, safer and more confident driver which consequently allowed me to pass my test with no qualms! I cannot thank him enough! Kate L.

Having failed my driving test a number of times with several different driving schools I was beginning to think that I was never going to get my drivers licence. Lessons with Mike really turned things around for me. His notes and advice helped me understand all the ways in which I had been incorrectly taught. He was clear, patient and encouraging. Today I passed my driving test and this is all down to having found a really excellent driving instructor. I can’t thank Mike enough for having made me a safe and confident driver.Clare M.

mike is a great driving instructor, very patient and capable in the way he handles situations, in the first hour he assessed were i was going wrong and told my how many more lessons i would need to break down the bad habits i had gains during the years of driving.i did four lessons with him and passed my exams today after 3 fails. great job mike, your a star!OEM.

Mike knows his stuff. His quality of teaching is excellent. I learn’t more in the first hour with him than ever before. The notes are great as they are a good recap. The video is clear and understanding so I am always on top before I start my next lesson. A great way to budget as I know I will have learn’t to the required standard and can practice knowing I am doing it correctly in my car as I have the notes and video to refer to, plus I can call Mike if I need to refer to anything.Dave R.

Comment: Congralulations to Marie for passing first time. This is fantastic as Marie is Dragon Drivers first Deaf Student.

Michael is good teacher because he got a very good deaf awareness; huge patience for me and can communicate with me regardless my deafness and my first language is Irish sign language. Thank you for everything, I am truly grateful. I am hoping to pass soon as possible!

Mike is a great instructor. I had a great time doing the lessons and was able to take everything in. It really helped me pass my test. i just started driving last November and because of his patience, i was able to learn everything just in time for my test last February. Once again, Thanks a million!!!

I found Dragon Driver Training on the RSA website, completely by chance. Having driven for 2 years beforehand and having had 25+ hours of lessons, I couldn’t understand why I had failed my driving test TWICE. 15 minutes in the car with Mike and I knew exactly why I had failed and that I was not the safe driver I was led to believe. Just looking at the facts, anyone with as many lessons completed with the most “prestgious” driving school around, should NOT have failed the test. I had spent my money on 25 + hours of having bad habits, confusion and frustration drilled into my mind. 5 hours of tuition and the supportive notes I was given free of charge allowed me to pass my driving test. I cannot fault this guys tuition! I have a problem with taking things in while i’m driving and with the help of the notes & diagrams to reinforce it, I felt ready for the test in a way I never had before. I can’t describe what peace of mind it is to feel ready for your test rather than dreading it!

Mike does a grand job. I’m not very good at listening, but I enjoy reading. So Mike centred my lessons around notes and a videos that he took of my driving in the car. Wow did I learn fast. Mike likes to move his pupils on FAST, at a pace that they understand. I did only 10 hours with Mike and 2 pretests and got through first time with 6 grade 2s! Not bad for a 40 year old who did not know where the clutch was and used my left foot to brake with!!

Hi Mike, Dave just want to say thanks for your expert skills and the Video Camera System. It was great. I could actual take away the lesson with me and listen your comments. This was a great help. To expect someone to pass their test first time in 6 hours of tution, plus the support of accompanied driver. My Dad was well pleased with the support lesson you gave him! Well thats me passed first time and I’ve got a video DVD to show my mates how I learnt to drive.

This guy is brilliant. I’ve been driving for 6 years and have also passed my Motorcycle Test. He took me out for 30 minutes and assessed me. Said I needed 1 hour of theory and then he proceeded to go through the theory giving me drawings and written instructions. I spent with him one hour and half and he charged me 55 quid. He said as long as I did what he told me there would be no problem with me passing my test. Yep I passed with 2 grade 2s on the clutch, which he said was my worst habitual problem.

Mike is a really good instructor, a qualified Approved Driving Instructor in the UK, teaching in Dublin. He teaches by demonstration or prompting. I took 2 hours with him and passed my test. He wrote down all he taught me and I revised it. Took my test and Passed! I have asked him now to teach me Pass Plus, so I can learn advanced techniques on Motorway Driving, in city driving and country lanes.

I suffer from my nerves. I always get high grades in theory tests, but terrible marks in practical assessments. Anyway Mike has been trained to deal with nervous drivers. He has the patience, because I pulled out on a busy junction in front of car, even though Mike told me the bench mark, I then proceeded to do a right turn driving on the left hand side of the road. All Mike did was guided me and corrected very quickly. Then told me to pull the car over, turn the engine off and take some deep breaths and asked me to explain what I done. The he talked me through how I should of done it. Mike is very very patient and tends to laugh it off.
