After 14 hours of tuition with Sam, she helped me gain my confidence in all aspects of driving and I managed to pass my test with just 4 DF's.

Many of my friends have passed with Sam and I would be happy to recommend her services to other."

I contacted Sam in the Summer of 2015 and we set a schedule of lessons in the evenings to work around my working hours at the University. Durng the 6 months period, I mainly completely lessons in the dark and under bad weather conditions, but over the last few weeks, managed to gain some daylight in the evening to practice my manoeuvres. I cannot explain how thankful I was to Sam when passing my test, especially FIRST TIME. However, she made it clear to me that all my hard work and determination had paid off. "

"I was chuffed to bits to have passed my Driving Test, especially as it was my FIRST TIME attempt. I had a few lessons previously, but I didn't feel I was making progress and the instructor decided to reduce his client base. Therefore, I needed to find an alternative instructor. My boyfriend had passed his test with Sam at Smiles Driving, so it seemed an obvious choice. It was the right choice and I am now delighted to have my freedom."
"Sam made it clear to me that I needed to work hard to pass my test, as in the early stages I found it quite difficult to control the pedals and was stalling repeatidly. During the course of approximtely 50 hours (with a break inbetween A levels and starting Uni) I made it my target to pass and was delighted when it happened with a FIRST TIME attempt. The last 8 hours I completed Mock Tests near the Test Centre and managed to drive through different routes . Thanks Sam......"
