Testimonials

Dominic - Bicester,

"Passing my test is a big relief for me as it gives me the freedom to go where I want to when I want to without having to rely on public transport. It also gives me the opportunity to look for jobs further away from my local area for the same reasons. As for learning to drive, I would recommend Rodger to anyone looking to learn as he doesn't rush anyone as he wants you to feel comfortable driving and not forced. He is also very patient and helpful which I find helps a lot as it helps you understand and learn at your own pace."

Aleks - Bicester,

"Having just passed my driving exam I can finally begin living as a free person! No more relying on the public transport in the cold weather and sharing crammed spaces with fellow passengers... Free and comfortable in my own car I can get anywhere and anytime. Thanks to patient Rodger my dream has come true... Now there are no limits and no boundaries on my choices of jobs, where I may move to live, or how far the airport is. There is a different world out there once you have your own 4 wheels:)

Graham - Farthinghoe,

"Passing my driving test has given me the ability to travel to and from places much more conveniently, making music festivals and gigs much less of a hassle! The freedom learning to drive brings is an absolutely massive benefit for anyone and I would thoroughly recommend learning with Rodger as he not only teaches you what is needed to pass the test, but also the importance of driving safely and responsibly through your driving career. Also really patient and calm. Thank you again!"

" Passing my driving test first time has really increased my self confidence and self esteem. I now have the independence to drive my own car to college and start socialising more especially as I will soon be 18. Thank you Rodger for your excellent teaching. You were punctual, professional and ensured I was ready to take my test. It is a testiment to you that I passed first time. I would not hesitate to recommend Rodgers Driving Academy."

Elise - Brackley,

"I passed my test first time, thanks to Rodger! Your attentive, patient and accommodating manner enabled me to learn the importance of safety on the road as well as being confident while in control of a car. Your calm disposition at all times is a real benefit to any learner driver! I'm now on the road in my own little Corsa which has changed both mine (and my mum's) lives drastically. No more begging or pleading for lifts here, there and everywhere. I can drive myself to college and to work so everyone benefits. Thanks again Rodger.

I look forward to completing my Pass Plus soon."

"Now that I can drive, my life has become so much easier in so many ways and it’s all thanks to Rodger! I can drive myself to and from Brackley where I play football, help my parents out by taking me and my brothers to school and in general, I have much more independence and freedom socially.

I would highly recommend Rodger to anybody! Thanks again for everything!"

Sarah - Middleton Cheney

"After relocating to rural Oxfordshire from Central London, learning to drive became a necessity for me both in terms of work and family commitments. From the very first lesson, Rodger proved to have a natural aptitude for knowing how to help me to overcome my anxieties and lack of confidence. With a characteristic combination of patience, humour, and well-timed encouragement, he enabled me to develop the positive attitude and practical skills necessary to become a safe and competent driver. Thank you!"

Dwayne - Banbury

"Thank you once again for teaching me the essential skill you passed on to me so I can drive safely with my family. Rodger is a great instructor and is very flexible and I had a great time learning with him. Now I have my driving license it means I can see my daughter more as I work and live at the Holt hotel while she lives in Banbury, also it will open up a lot more job opportunities."

Darren - Banbury

"Thank you so much for being an ACE driving instructor and helping me to pass my test first time!You tailored everything to the way I function, rather than dropping me in at the deep end, which was very much appreciated!Passing my test means so much to me! ...Total freedom and independence being the main one; I can now get to new career opportunities further afield; I can drive myself to gigs that I'm playing at.”

Joe - Souldern

"Living in a small village in the middle of nowhere, with no public transport meant relying on my parents to take me everywhere. Finding an instructor who would pick me up and drop me off in such an awkward location and fit double lessons into my busy schedule was difficult, but Rodger was flexible and accommodating. His car was much better than my dad’s car and I enjoyed driving it. After 3 months of learning, I passed my test on the first attempt and the feeling of freedom and independence is amazing. I can now take myself to my gigs, to town, to see friends, college etc. whenever I like without having to hassle my parents for a lift. This is all thanks to Rodger and I wouldn’t have got through without his patience, friendly attitude and fantastic teaching techniques. I have recommended him to my friends who are learning to drive and I would definitely recommend him to anyone else who is looking for an instructor."

Aga – Blackthorn

"I couldn't thank Rodger enough for helping me learn to drive and making me so happy for passing my test. He gave me confidence and I felt stress free. Rodger was so caring when I failed my 1st test. That I was more determined to pass for myself as well as for Rodger. I couldn't have asked for a more learning to drive. Thank you for everything. :)"

Jordan - Twyford

"It is so great to be able to drive now thanks to Rodger, I don’t have to rely on people to give me lifts to the shops which is a great relief and now I can go and visit my parents as well because I live so far away from them, and the pass plus is a good help too just to get that bit more experience and cheaper insurance."

Stephen - Mixbury

"Passing my test was the greatest sense of achievement I have ever felt! The freedom and independence I have gained is exciting and relieving at the same time, I now find pleasure in simple things like being able to drive myself to college and not have to rely on those around me for favours all the time! I'd definitely recommend learning with Rodger, who will help you in a positive and patient manor to gain your drivers license. Thank you again Rodger!! "

Brett - Bicester

"After riding a motorcycle on the road for 10yrs I thought a car license would have been easy. I first tried an intensive course, which proved to be a bad idea and very expensive. I should have gone with Rodger from the start, expert tuition-flexible times and very calming nature. I would recommend Rodger to anyone. “

“I really enjoyed learning to drive with Rodger. He was calm and always positive; two qualities that I lacked. Rodger was a fantastic instructor, helping me to pass my test first time. He was extremely patient and made me feel at ease behind the wheel even when things were going a bit wrong. His way of explaining the different techniques used was simple and to the point. Thank you Rodger!”

Derek - Bicester

“I started my driving lessons earlier this year. I had tried other driving instructors before but found Rodger to be easier to get along with and more relaxed which helps with the nerves! I ended up looking forward to my lessons where as before with other instructors I would dread them. His teaching is very clear and very thorough making it easy to understand. He’s very patient and teaches at YOUR pace. His times were very flexible and I found my over all experience very enjoyable. I passed FIRST TIME with only 3 minors. What more could you ask for!?”

“I completed Pass Plus with Rodger and found it very helpful particularly for when I started driving on motorways– it even saved me money off my insurance which helped me be able to afford my brand new car! It is a very valuable course and I found Rodger very informative and patient whilst teaching me. Very good at calming nerves too.”
