I had an absolutely fantastic experience with Castle Driving School! My instructor was Paul and he was brilliant from start to finish. He always gave incredibly detailed feedback, which was why I managed to pass my test first time with only 2 minors! I will forever be grateful to Paul and everyone at Castle Driving School. I would recommend to anyone!

Highly recommend Mr. Phill for driving lessons! With his expert guidance, I passed my road test and obtained my UK license with just two faults. His teaching style is effective, and his patience and encouragement made the learning process enjoyable. Thank you, Mr. Phill, for helping me become a confident and safe driver!

Sam Goldthorp(Aged 17), England

From start to finish Paul was amazing. He really put me at ease in what I felt was a stressful situation. He was reliable and gave great communication and advice throughout. I could not have asked for a better driving instructor and I will miss our chats.

Thanks to Phil's patience and confidence I was able to pass my test the second time round. I had over a year of lessons and found driving tough at times but Phil was always a reliable instructor who helped me when I struggled. He always believed in me and I am really grateful for it! Thank you Phil for all your help!

Sophie Hayes, Colchester

I passed my test today with Phil and just wanted to say how grateful I am for his patience, kindness, and support to get me to this point. I was a very anxious driver but Phil made me feel at ease at all times and was very thorough in his teachings. I would recommend him and Castle to anybody looking for a place to start. Thank you so much!

Phil was absolutely brilliant through the year of learning as he also was when he got my three sisters through the test first time previously. I could not have asked for a better instructor to help me get through the test. Phil was totally clear, concise, professional and reliable throughout the whole experience.

Ollie Handley(Aged 17), Colchester

It was almost a year of quality lessons. I passed first time thanks to being taught how to drive rather than how to pass the test. My instructor i will always remember and it was amazing being under her tutoring.

Jonathan Humphreys (Passed in 2022 - Aged 20), Colchester Essex

Phil was an amazing driving instructor. I am so grateful for his lessons and how much I improved at driving. He was very clear and patient at explaining during the lessons so I felt very well prepared for the test. I am so happy that I passed first time. Thank you Phil!

Jemima Holt, Colchester

My experience with Castle was exactly what I was hoping for and more. I did not enjoy driving before I started my course with Paul, and now I cannot wait to get behind the wheel. He helped me pass my test thanks to his calmness and expertise.
