CUSTOMER REVIEWS

"I've long been interested in improving my driving skills and knowledge. Colm's teaching style, temperament and depth of knowledge really made the session interesting and valuable. There are improvements that I have applied to my day to day driving because of my sessions and I have a newfound joy for driving. As a result of Colm's approach and style I have committed myself to completing an advanced driving test later this year. I will use Colm for all my preparation for this. If you have any interest in improving your driving skills and knowledge, I would strongly recommend advanced driving lessons with Colm Branigan."

Daniel Morrow, Dublin South.

"I wanted to improve my driving skills and found Colm’s details online. I found his approach and delivery method brilliant. He is very knowledgeable, patient and brings out the best in people. Each lesson tackled something new, and it has proved to be time well spent for me. I wish Colm every success for the future and could not recommend him highly enough."

Eilish Larkin, Roscommon

"I chose Colm as my instructor because of his excellent reputation. He is very knowledgeable and always maintains a calm manner when instructing. Colm thoroughly explained the reasons behind driving techniques, and this helped embed the practices into my daily driving very quickly. Colm also pointed out finer technical details which enabled me to drive to the highest standard. I know I am a safer and better driver because of Colm's tuition and cannot recommend him enough."

Mairead Dillon, Wicklow

"I completed the two-hour advanced driving course with Colm. Having recently been rear ended whilst driving in the city my confidence had taken a knock. I found Colm to be an excellent teacher, giving clear instructions and his professional manner really put me at ease from the get-go. I learned so much. My driving is smoother, and I feel much more relaxed behind the wheel thanks to Colm's advice and feedback. I would 100% recommend. Thanks again Colm."
