Hear from our happy students
At Dab Hand Driving, I pride myself on providing a positive, calming, and client-centred learning experience. My patient and supportive approach helps students not only pass their test but also become confident drivers for life. I believe my commitment to excellent service at a good price makes me the right choice for your driving journey in Shropshire and Wrexham.
I highly recommend Darren! Thanks to his excellent instruction, I passed my driving test on the first attempt.
Darren is incredibly patient, calm, and composed, which made learning to drive a stress-free experience. He was consistently encouraging, helping me build my confidence on the road significantly. I think him being very patient made me relax on the road and whenever I made a mistake, the correction was brought about in a manner that encouraged me try again and again. The whole experience was enjoyable, I kept looking forward to the lessons 😀. I'd 100% recommend him to anyone learning to drive.

I highly recommend Darren to anyone learning to drive, you couldn’t ask for a better driving instructor. From the very first lesson, he created a calm and supportive atmosphere that made learning to drive stress-free and genuinely enjoyable. His explanations were always clear, patient, and he never hesitated to go over anything I needed extra help with.
He is extremely kind and supportive which helps with building confidence on the road.
I can’t recommend him enough. An amazing experience from start to finish!
Thank you Darren I appreciate everything you have done for me!!

Couldn’t recommend my driving instructor; Darren enough! I passed my test on Monday with only 1 minor, and I honestly couldn’t have done it without him.
He’s incredibly kind, patient and supportive, and always made lessons feel relaxed and enjoyable. The banter definitely helped calm the nerves too!
Darren has a way of unleashing that confidence you deep down know you have, and explaining mistakes carefully and clearly.
Thank you for all the help, guidance and laughs along the way.
I’m really grateful. Best decision I ever made. Thank you for everything, and for not just supporting me to pass, but to drive safely, allowing me to understand every decision you make in the car and the rationale behind it.
If anyone is looking for a great instructor, I’d highly recommend, and I certainly will be recommending him to my friends, family and anybody else I know who is looking for that pass. 🚗

The best driving instructor ever! I was extremely nervous when I first started learning to drive. However dab hand driving took me through it calmly in any awkward situation on the road. It was this calm, professional teaching that led me to pass my test 1st time. I'd recommend dab hand driving 100 times over!

I started my lessons with Darren in December and passed first time in April! He’s incredibly patient and explains things in a way that really makes sense. What I found especially helpful is that he shows different approaches to driving techniques, so you can figure out what works best for you. This made me feel much more confident behind the wheel. I couldn’t recommend him more — thank you so much!

Darren was such an excellent driving instructor. He was patient, encouraging and did a great job developing my daughter's confidence to manage the roads and traffic. He was very flexible with arrangements and extremely prompt with his communications. I wholeheartedly recommend Darren as a competent and reliable option. Thank you so much Darren! You went above and beyond!
