Martin was amazing, professional and really patient with me. Especially post-Covid when I found it difficult to find tests and had months between lessons, he was always patient and willing to go over the simple stuff again and again. An instructor I would definitely recommend! 🙂

Thank you much Martin! Helped me pass my driving test 1st time. Honestly you were so patient and provided me with good feedback on what I need to improve on and always found the time to fit in my lessons. You were also really good with communicating efficiently. I would definitely recommend going to Martin if in need of a driving instructor. Thank you so much once again!

Martin is the best driving instructor you could ever ask for. For the price you are paying for a driving lesson, you are receiving 200% quality lesson. He will tell you when you are ready for your exam and will tell you that you don't need extra lessons if not necessary - he is not there for your money, he is there to help you pass and be a safe on the road. He will make sure that you are very safe on the road + help you with any areas you struggle with until you have mastered it. I would highly recommend everyone who sees this to go with him because you will save yourself a lot of money paying other instructors and you won't receive the same level of quality anywhere else.

Martin is such a patient and uplifting instructor. He was always very gracious and never patronising when pointing out mistakes (even if they were very very silly). I really like his teaching style - he always challenged me to work out my own mistakes and gently guided me through problems. He is incredibly professional but also relaxed and knows how to have a laugh as well. Thanks to his guidance I finally passed despite various challenges and Covid getting in the way. I could not be happier!

Martin was my instructor all the way through. He really pushed me and challanged me through things I didnt believe I could do. He never raised his voice or got mad whenever I made a mistake. Very patient bloke, passed my manual test first try. A+++

Martin is an amazing instructor, he's calm, trusting, patient and many other words, the list would go on and on, but thanks to him I passed my test first try. I couldn’t thank him enough and throughout our journey to this moment was all fun and good conversations. The only reason I can drive confidently on the road is because of him. Thank you very much Martin, I appreciate everything you've done to help me. Max star ratings.

I passed my Test with Martin on August 4th 2022, I cannot express how thankful I am to this true legend. I have been driving before and I must say the instructors I had before where nothing compared to Martin. When you make a mistake as a teacher you should not get frustrated and raise your tone rather you should explain how it happened and how to avoid in a professional manner. This is exactly what Martin is, Professional, I could not recommend anyone else in this area but Martin. My lessons with him where joyful and I felt comfortable driving around with him, a plus note is he has a sense of humour. His ability to teach is amazing, if you want your moneys worth and want to learn as you drive I would strongly recommend. He will raise your confidence and make you believe in yourself as a driver and that's a rare thing with instructors nowadays. Martin also does mock tests so you can actually feel you are in a driving test rather then just going random routes, It is what made me more confident. I am forever thankful to this great induvial once again Martin thank you very much for your support and incredible teaching skills. A CLASS INSTRUCTOR!

Huge thanks to Martin!! I passed my test with 4 minors. He is an amazing instructor!! I tried few instructor before him, but the first 5 mins in our first lesson, I knew this is the instructor I was looking for!! He is calm, fun, patient, and very clear with everything he teaches. He made driving in London easier and less stressful. He also have good confidence in student, gave me space to try the things out and do it independently under his supervision. The lessons atmosphere is always chill and fun, felt achieved and learned a lot each lesson. I always looked forward to our lesson! Super highly recommend Martin !!

I passed with Martin in December of '17 (some time ago now!). The man is a consummate professional and a legend. Patience, honesty, easy going, sense of humour, but he best of all instilled confidence and self-belief in you. There is a reason he is as good as he is.

I passed my test yesterday & I can not thank Martin enough for all he has done over these last few months in preparing me for it. I genuinely do not think I could have passed without him. Martin makes you feel at ease and comfortable behind the wheel and is efficient, his teaching methods, patience and commitment are second to none. Martin has a collective, calm and friendly approach when giving feedback and we used to even crack jokes, which put me at ease during my driving lessons. I had a driving instructor before Martin but I feel I didn't learn as much as I should have done and then I decided to contact ACM driving school and I am so glad I went with them. I would highly recommend this driving school to my friends and family and lastly would like to thank Martin once again for everything! I wish you all the best 🙂

My experience with ACM was 10/10 Martin was great: professional, always supportive and very experienced. He help me in my lessons to improve quickly and always very polite when giving his feedback both positive and negative when I was doing mistakes. I cannot thank him enough He helped me achieve one of my goals for 2021. I passed first time after one month of lessons. I highly recommend him.

Martin is the best instructor and I can say that because I experienced others. I was not a new driver, but I was new to driving in the UK. He is calm, patient and very thorough. For each time I didn't understand something, he would be sure to explain it until I did, even pulling out diagrams and talking about it (usually roundabouts) until I got it. No matter how many times I asked questions, he would calmly guide me through the proper execution of driving and maneuvers. If I made a mistake, he would point it out in a calm, non-accusatory way so that it wasn't causing further stress while driving. We practiced everything that could possibly come up on the test - from emergency stops to parallel parking and other maneuvers to the show me/tell me questions - so I felt fully prepared and confident in my abilities. I always felt like his mission was to get me to pass the test successfully, and mission accomplished!

I didn’t have that much confidence in my driving but due to Martin’s excellent support and teaching, I managed to pass first time last week! Martin is such a great instructor. He is kind, respectful and very patient. He makes you feel comfortable and has a great sense of humour! He is exactly how an instructor should be. Thank you again Martin! I 100% recommend ACM Driving!

Martin is such a great instructor! Very patient, easy going and professional. Martin helped me improve my driving and my confidence as I get very very nervous. I enjoyed every lesson with him. Thank you for helping me to pass and thanks for the Mars bar tip 😀 Thank you again! 100% recommended 🙂

Martin is a great instructor, very patient and helpful and gave great tips. He didn’t shout and didn’t get annoyed when I made the same mistake and just patiently told me what to do and how to correct it. I passed on the first time - as when I was in my test, could imagine what Martin would say, he helped build my confidence driving and was a lot better than my previous instructor. Highly recommended!! Thanks Martin 5 stars

Martin is a very good, easy going, instructor and reading the other reviews I'm not the only one who knows he's very patient and gives well thought out constructive feedback during the lesson. Would 100% recommend, never a bad lesson! I could've easily passed after 4 or so months (however had to be patient because of coronavirus) Thanks again!
