Pretest driving lessons
Limerick & Shannon, Co. Clare

"Would just like to thank Patrick from the Start Up Driving School for helping me to pass my driving test! Patrick is truly a fantastic instructor with so much knowledge, great tips and advice. Thanks to Patrick’s calm manner of teaching I was able to pass my driving test on my first attempt and all whilst having a laugh! I cannot recommend Start Up Driving School enough and please please ask for Patrick as your instructor, you won’t regret it! Patrick you are an absolute gentlemen, thanks so much!”

"I had lessons with Patrick and passed first time. He is an excellent teacher. He is very patient, knowledgeable and professional. He always turned up on time and was easy to book lessons with in advance, even squeezing in an extra couple of lessons the week of my test at late notice. The lessons were all very enjoyable and he was very clear at explaining things or answering any of my questions. I would highly recommend getting lessons with Patrick!”

"Patrick was my instructor during my time learning to drive. He was the perfect blend of a serious instructor and all round really nice guy. He was always up for a chat and made me a very confident learner. I'm happy to say with his expert guidance, I was able to pass my test at the first time of asking. Thanks Patrick!"

"So grateful for such a great driving experience. I was a VERY nervous driver and Patrick put me completely at ease from the first lesson and was very patient with all my worries. Lots of tips on how to make maneuvers straight forward as well which really increased my confidence. We had great conversation during the lessons too which made them fun rather than stressful. He was also incredibly accommodating when I had to change lessons due to child care. When it came to the test he made sure I was over prepared which made me feel very reassured and I passed! I honestly never thought I’d do it so I’m incredibly grateful and whole heartedly recommend!! Thank you very very much Patrick!"

"I had Patrick for my driving lessons and he was just amazing! He made me feel calm and confident. I've just passed my exam first time and I am so thankful for his help. He's very professional and I highly recommend him."

"I passed my driving test on my first try thanks to Patrick and Start Up School of Motoring! I was quite nervous when I first started but through the consistent and insightful teaching style of Patrick I felt fully prepared when the time came to do my test. I really appreciated the extra support I was offered. Most importantly, I built a strong friendship with Patrick which calmed my nerves and has given me confidence in my driving."

"I had Patrick as my amazing driving instructor, who ensured that I passed the driving test first time. He was very knowledgeable, helpful and patient with me and I would definitely recommend him to any learner driver."

"My instructor was Patrick and he was Excellent. Prior to my lessons I was a very nervous driver (having previously tried and failed to learn to drive a manual). He helped me very quickly gain confidence on the road, and with all the different skills I needed to show. So much so that I passed first time with weekly lessons! Patrick was always polite, on time, and a very clear communicator (both before and during lessons). Cannot recommend highly enough!"
