Testimonials
At Carol's School of Motoring, we pride ourselves on our excellent testimonials. Here's what some of our satisfied students have to say:
- "I went to Carol for a few intensive lessons before my test after feeling I wasn't really progressing with my current instructor. Having the intensive lessons meant I could get in to my driving and focus on any weak areas, fast forward to 3 lessons later and I have passed my test first time with only 2 minors. Cannot recommend or thank Carol enough." - Rhys from Rugeley

Several reviewers have claimed that Carol did not provide adequate teaching or guidance during their lessons. One reviewer even had to learn an emergency stop from YouTube, highlighting the lack of instruction provided by Carol. Others have reported that she neglected to cover important driving skills, such as manoeuvres, and instead focused on talking about her personal life.

Reviewers have also reported issues with Carol's communication and administrative skills. One reviewer had their lesson schedule mixed up, leading to a last-minute change to their test day. Others have mentioned being treated rudely or being kept waiting for extended periods.
Positive Experience
