Passed first time in Featherstone today, Chris has helped me so much with gaining confidence while driving and I wouldn’t have passed without all his help and guidance. He believed in me when I didn’t and I couldn’t have asked for a better instructor, thank you 🙂

Abi – December 2024

Passed my driving test today after having lessons with Lee. He’s a great instructor and helped me build my confidence with driving massively. He’s a credit to Rio Driving School.

Lydia – November 2024

With Gary’s help I passed my test first time, he’s a brilliant instructor. Would recommend to all.

Ethan – October 2024

I started learning to drive in November 2023 and passed first test. Gary Bennett enabled me to learn how to drive and helped me gain confidence in my own abilities as a driver. I was able to learn at a steady pace and book a lesson at a time that suited me. I was a very nervous driver when I started but Gary helped me to calm down and when I did get nervous he was friendly and understanding about it all. I would highly recommend Gary as a driving instructor.
Thank you so much Gary

Jamie – October 2024

10/10 driving instructor.

Gary is a great, friendly and trustworthy driving instructor. He teaches you everything in small, easy to follow steps. I never once had a problem with him, he always showed up on time and never cancelled a lesson on me. He never once got annoyed if I didn’t do something right, he would always help me the next time, talking me through it all step by step. I would 100% recommend him to anyone who is looking to start learning to drive.

Zak – October 2024

I passed my driving test today 12/10/24 and my instructor Garry has been an absolute great help throughout my time being a learner. He goes through absolutely everything in great detail and has great techniques for parking exercises which when it came to my test I absolutely smashed it. Wouldn’t have passed without him.

Byn – October 2024

I had Chris as my instructor and I can’t thank him enough he really believed in me even when I didn’t and he was right from the start and I did pass my test so thank you very much.

Grace – September  2024

I passed first time with 4 minors at Featherstone Test Centre. Couldn’t have had a better experience than what I had with Chris teaching me to drive. He taught me everything I needed to pass my test and more. All teaching was well thought out, clear and always included my input. Not only a great instructor but also a nice genuine person to be around.

Harrison – September  2024

Couldn’t thank Peter enough for how he’s learnt me from the beginning when I had my first lesson till today when I passed… would recommend him definitely…. Thank you so much

Amy Pace – September  2024

Gary was great straight from the begining.I was given his number by a family member and he was quick to answer and get my first lesson booked. Whilst driving I was always instructed on the correct way of doing everything. Booking the lesson was really easy to I was always given plenty of availability whenever I asked. Doing the driving test was really good as well I had taken my test 4 times before but after lessons with Gary I passed 1st try. I would personally recommend Gary for anyone to learn to drive or to help you pass your test.

Kennan Smith – August 2024

Driving lessons with Lee M, he has great communication, he kept me motivated with positive encouragement and explained everything thoroughly .Would highly recommend him.

Thank you for your time and patience .

Natalie Elliott – July 2024

Garry was amazing, he was always calm and explained what I needed to do and always answered any questions the best he could, he was confident in my driving and reassured me that I was better than I thought, on the day of my test he went over everything with me making sure I was confident when I went on my test he was proud when I passed my test and was always nice and calm with me.

Darren Cowley – April 2024

Gary is a great instructor who helped me learn a lot. From the very basics to all the hardest parts. Gary made sure I knew exactly what I was doing before going into any test. He is always on time and never late for a lesson. Gary also made sure I was comfortable with whatever we were doing in a lesson and helped me a lot if I was struggling with something. Overall Gary taught me so much and is a brilliant instructor.
