After not learning for nearly 6 years I was very nervous!
Couldn’t thank magda enough for the hours and work we have done together.
Thank you Magda!!! ??

You are a great driving instructor with a friendly nature . Many many thanks for all your support to get pass in my exams . Thank you very much .

An amazing teacher who is lovely to talk with and puts you at ease. Passed first time with only a few months practise. Couldn’t recommend enough!

Magda is so kind and patient. I’m so grateful that I got her as my instructor and would give more than 5 stars if I could! She made me feel more confident in driving as well as prepared for the test day. Everyone needs a Magda in their life.

I can't thank Magda enough for all she has taught me! She's a really good instructor, patient and will always belive in you! I highly recommend her!

Glenn is a Fantastic driving instructor, very happy with my end result, strongly recommend

Fantastic instructor. Could have passed without your Lee!!

Glenn was brilliant, a real nice guy to learn with. I’m going to miss our conversations Glenn, you are a legend and thank you!

Magda is a very knowledgeable and kind instructor. In 3 months I learnt to drive manual and passed with very few minors. I would highly recommend her!

Magda is a great driving instructor, she really helped me in improving my weak areas and turning them into strong points and in just 7 weeks my driving skills improved greatly and I passed my Practical. Superb Instructor! Would highly recommend

Test Tip Of The Month For Northampton

When leaving the driving test centre, you may be asked to turn right onto Gladstone road and then at the next roundabout, you may be asked to follow the road to the right sign posted to Kingsthorpe. You must keep off the white hatch markings and follow the left lane all the way around the roundabout following the ahead road markings to Kingsthorpe.

Should you get confused and follow the right road markings, you will go back to the driving test centre and that will be ok. You could stay in the right lane and go around again, keeping off the white hatch markings and exit the roundabout in the left ahead lane to Kingsthorpe.

Useful Driving Test Tip For Northampton

If the examiner asks you to pull up on the right at a safe place, take your time. Don't rush trying to get over to the right until you are 100% happy you have identified a safe place. Keep checking your interior mirror as well. Naturally, you may come off the gas a bit as you are looking for somewhere to pull up. If you are slowing down, vehicles might follow you closer or try to pass you.

When you go to move away again after pulling up on the right, you must be sure you can cross oncoming vehicles safely and not slow down for traffic. If you are on a 30mph road, try to allow a 100m gap from oncoming cars. This will give you enough time to build up speed without surprising or slowing anyone down.

Frequently asked questions...

Yes, our driving school in Northampton offers this service. We always recommend letting your instructor know in advance if you are changing a pick-up/drop-off point so they can plan their day and schedule enough time to get to you and then get to their next pupil too. Many learners start their lessons from their home at 7/8am and then get dropped off at work/college. Some learners prefer to be picked up from work or college and then finish at home. Whatever your requirements, we are flexible and will do our utmost to accommodate your requirements.

Yes, you can. We would ask a few questions to do with your requirements and why you want to take a test elsewhere.
