ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE DRIVING INSTRUCTOR

"Matt is an absolutely incredible driving instructor.

When I first started with him, I was an extremely nervous driver and didn't feel confident making decisions when driving at all, but because of Matt's patience, clear and thorough explanations, and support I now feel far more self-assured and calm when out on the road.

I especially appreciate that Matt offered several mock tests during our lessons as that enabled me to feel confident and prepared for the actual test day.

MATT WAS SO PATIENT AND UNDERSTANDING OF MY ANXIETY

I read the great reviews that Matt had and contacted him for automatic lessons in Orpington- from the start Matt was so patient and understanding of my anxiety that in the space of a few lessons I went from being absolutely terrified to actually starting to think this was something I could do.

Matt did his best to fit his schedule around mine (extremely limited due to childcare and work) and after 9 months of lessons full of encouragement and lots of patience, I passed my driving test first time with only two faults!!

I HAVE SO MUCH MORE FREEDOM

"Having my driving instructor also be my dad made driving really fun as not only did I get to learn a really valuable skill that I will now have forever but we also had some really nice quality time together.

"I took automatic driving lessons for the Sidcup test area with Matt and I can’t emphasise enough how much of a great instructor he is.

I looked forward to our little chats during my lessons and always appreciated the interest he took in what I had to say.

He is very patient and teaches you loads of little driving/manoeuvre hacks (which will also come in handy on your test day!)

I now feel so well-equipped moving onto independent driving life, as Matt has empowered me to be the best driver I can be.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

"Matt Shurmer (Automatic Driving Lessons) really is a class above the rest! Both of my daughters have the required enthusiasm and really want to drive to further their independence.

We initially used a manual driving instructor but for various reasons this just wasn’t working out for either of them. So I started my search for an automatic driving instructor and Matt came highly recommended from one of his ex pupils who had recently passed their driving test thanks to Matt.

Personally I don’t have much faith in most big named companies as they lack that ‘personal touch’ so I’m always on the lookout for a small business who I know will provide the level of care needed and a little bit more.

You can trust Matt Shurmer to provide the best structured driving lessons, as after just a few lessons both my daughter’s were telling me just ‘how good he is’ and that they wished we had found Matt much earlier as they had learnt so much more in a shorter time with Matt, and that he is just so patient, calm, confident and professional with his trainees and thus his confidence then transfers across to the learner!

I would 100% recommend Matt Shurmer to anyone and everyone as your best automatic driving lessons instructor, as he truly is top notch, you won’t regret it and will recommend him too.

My youngest daughter has recently passed her driving test FIRST TIME on 27 Feb 2023 thanks to the quality teaching skills of Matt. Trust me, you won’t regret it!"

AMAZING

"Matt has been amazing from start to finish. I started with very little experience and was a very nervous driver.

Matt during my lessons knew exactly how to get the best out of me. Even if I did take it to heart if I did something wrong.

But every lesson we powered through. On the 30th of Jan I passed my test with no faults.

For me it is life changing as having 2 kids with no car is very hard.

"I took automatic driving lessons in Sidcup with Matt Shurmer and it was the best thing I ever did.

Matt was so patient with me and made me feel so comfortable- he even helped me when I was so anxious and reassured me that I could do it.

I couldn’t of ever done it without Matt by my side and could never thank him enough for pushing me and making sure I never gave up on myself. I couldn’t of wished for a better driving instructor and would recommend Matt to anyone especially if you suffer form anxiety like myself. He's truly the best and I will miss the push he always gave me that I needed.

My son started with another large company but was constantly being let down by cancellations or unavailability of the instructor.

We looked online and was instantly draw in by Matt and his reputation.

After a few months of weekly lessons my son learnt to drive with Matt and passed first time.

Great communication throughout.

"Around this time a year ago I was looking for automatic driving lessons in the Orpington area (BR6) and I came across the Matt Shurmer Driving School, and I honestly could not be any happier that I did.

As a man in my late 30s who didn’t have a great history with driving (having tried learning a few times unsuccessfully in the past) I had almost given up hope; I had created a mental block that meant even the thought of driving made me feel very nervous and anxious, so had resigned myself to the fact that I would never be a driver.

After some encouragement from my wife, I met with Matt for a first lesson and have never looked back since. Even with my anxiety levels causing a few bumps in the road, Matt was so supportive and encouraging from day one, gradually helping me past every obstacle and mental block I put in place, encouraging me through with his calm, professional coaching style that was exactly what I needed to progress.

Matt shared with me so many brilliant techniques, not just in driving skills but also in calming nerves and boosting confidence and self belief. Today I passed my test with just three minors, and that simply would not have been possible without Matt.

This will change my life and I am forever grateful to him for everything he has done for me. If you are unsure about starting driving lessons, feeling anxious or nervous , Matt Shurmer Driving School will be able to help.

I cannot recommend him highly enough; if he did it for me, he can do it for you too!"

"I was looking for automatic driving lessons for myself around the Petts Wood, Orpington area (BR5) and I am so happy that I chose to have my automatic driving lessons with Matt.

I was not a natural driver at the beginning when I chose to have manual driving lessons and I am not good at multitasking. That's why I decided to change to the automatic driving lessons. I am happy that Matt was really supportive when I approached him about transferring from manual to automatic and found that Matt is an amazing instructor too!

I built up my confidence with his help and he is so professional, informative, claim and friendly who makes me feel very comfortable and confident. Approaching the test itself, I also struggled with driving test nerves. Matt shared with me the most effective techniques for banishing driving test nerves and as result, I became a calm and confident driver during my test.

I was so happy to pass my driving test today with three minors for the first time. Thanks so much Matt.

Great thankful for Matt and couldn't recommend Matt Shurmer Driver School enough! Seriously thank you again Matt!"

"I recently completed automatic driving lessons in Bromley, BR1 with Matt Shurmer’s Driving School.

After reading online about others recommending Matt, and his students successes with their driving abilities via his website, I can confidently say these were spot on with myself too passing my driving test on the second attempt with zero faults with Matt as my instructor!!

From the first lesson to the very last, Matt put me at ease, creating a calm, positive and friendly environment to learn in. Matt’s student-led lessons were always enjoyable, beneficial and supportive with constructive feedback at the end of each lesson.

Being able to drive will make a huge difference to my life, in particular with not having to wake up at 5.30am to get public transport to work anymore!

With lessons filled with encouragement and positivity, Matt is a brilliant driving instructor who I would recommend to anyone! Thank you so much again Matt for guiding and supporting me through this process, I couldn’t have done it without you!"

"When looking for automatic driving instructors near me in Orpington, BR5, I came across Matt and his informative website instantly captured my attention.

From the first to the last driving lesson Matt always remained calm, friendly but also very professional.

Matt has a uniquely tailored teaching style to each individual’s needs, with structured lessons and constructive feedback provided at the end of each driving session.

After several lessons with Matt, I had to relocate to a different city for a new and highly demanding job. However, instead of searching for another instructor in my new location, I decided to travel on the weekends so I could continue my driving lessons with Matt.

Why would one wake up at 5am during a weekend, after a week of work, use multiple modes of transport twice a day during covid times for a lesson you may ask?! Because Matt is truly a rare find!!

It was all well worth it, and I passed both my theory and practical test first time. I couldn’t have achieved so without Matt.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!"

"Looking for automatic driving lessons in the Swanley BR8 area, then look no further. Matt Shurmer's automatic driving lessons are the best you're going to find.

Matt was recommended to me by my sister-in-law and with a couple of gentle nudges from her I got in contact with Matt. As a more 'mature' pupil, Matt helped me build up my confidence behind the wheel. He is friendly, calm, patient, very supportive, and always remains positive.

I was very nervous at the thought of driving but from our first lesson I realised it wasn't as nerve wracking as I was expecting, and with Matt beside me, made driving very enjoyable.

Passing my test now allows me to be more independent, and I look forward to taking my nephews on days out. Matt is a great communicator and his teaching methods are clear.

He will explain in detail what your objectives are and anything you don't quite understand. Feedback is given after each lesson, so that you know where you are doing well and for improvements that need to be made.

I highly recommend Matt Shurmer Driving School to anyone looking for automatic driving lessons. Once again Matt, I thank you so very much."

Matt is a friendly, patient and approachable instructor. His driving lessons are structured and he tailors them according to your needs and progress.

Matt gives clear instructions and breaks down manoeuvres step-by-step, which has been super helpful for me!

In January 2022, I passed my driving test first time with two minors. A very big thank you to Matt for teaching me how to drive and helping me prepare for the driving test.

Matt is such an excellent instructor, he prepares you to be confident on the road, rather than just able to tick all the boxes!

I have a goal to pass my test in a tight timeline, Matt pulled together great structured lessons, helped me to gain the necessary skills, experience and confidence to pass in quite a short time.

He even predicted the exact route I was taken on during the test! I want to say a huge thank you to Matt, I can't achieve this without your help!"

"I was looking for automatic driving lessons in Petts Wood Orpington BR5, and found Matt mentioned several times across social media as a great teacher.

From the start, Matt was exceptional- very quickly building an understanding of where I was at with my driving and what we needed to work on to get me "test ready".

Throughout the lessons, Matt was great at feedback, both regarding what was going well but also not shying away from pointing out areas that needed improvement. Approaching the test itself, Matt was great at identifying where it made sense to make the most of our time so when I came to take my real test, there were no surprises.

Overall, I'm really happy that I chose Matt as my driving instructor, there's no doubt he's fantastic at what he does but also a really nice and personable guy who it's easy to spend the hours driving with.

He's a five star teacher and you shouldn't hesitate to get in touch with him if you're looking for driving lessons in the Bromley/Orpington/Petts Wood area.

"I started my automatic driving lessons with Matt in Orpington (BR6) in May after previously completing 6 lessons on manual and deciding it wasn’t for me.

Matt was really supportive when I approached him about transferring from manual to automatic and used teaching methods which helped to gradually build up my skills and abilities as a driver without me feeling pushed out of my comfort zone during the process.

As my test approached I was getting more and more nervous and I had given up on myself and my ability to pass, but Matt kept me going with encouragement which ended in the result of a pass first time with only 2 faults on New Years Eve (perfect way to finish 2021 and start 2022).

I would therefore recommend Matt Shurmer to anyone looking for a reliable, encouraging and calm automatic instructor. Thank you again for all your help Matt."

"When I first came to Matt I had no driving experience, then as the lessons went on he taught me all the foundations and techniques for driving which I think will remain with me for the rest of my life!

I have been with Matt Shurmer Driving School for a while due to the Covid lockdowns but Matt always ensured then when we could have lessons it felt like no time had been lost!

He always remained calm and went over the things I was unsure about. It feels like the end of an era due to the length of time but, happy to say he has given me the confidence to drive for a lifetime.

Thank you Matt 😀"

"I’m based in Sidcup DA15 and went with Matt for my automatic driving lessons. I started learning to drive later in life (34 y/o) as I had been so nervous to try driving when I was younger.

Matt instantly put me at ease and always helped me to feel in calm and in control when behind the wheel. I also found out I was pregnant with my first child when I started lessons so being able to pass my test became even more important and time constrained!

Matt provided some fantastic resources to help me revise and prepare for my theory test (passed first time) and coached me through the practical driving side at a pace that made me comfortable. Matt is great at providing fair, balanced and encouraging feedback so you know where you are doing well and where to practice. With his help I was able to pass my driving test first time- this was after just 33 hours of lessons.

Matt has helped me go from someone who was a complete novice and scared of driving, to someone who now takes every opportunity to get behind the wheel! I would recommend Matt to anyone looking to learn to drive. He is patient, calm, reassuring and a clear communicator. Thanks for everything Matt!"

"I took my automatic driving lessons in Swanley BR8 and I was absolutely blown away with Matt and his teaching skills. I passed my test first time with 0 faults – something I never thought possible. Matt brings a lovely mix of friendliness & professionalism. When I started learning to drive I started in a manual car and I felt really unconfident. I spoke to Matt to say I wasn’t sure if I didn’t enjoy driving or if it was because I couldn’t get along with the clutch. Matt took me out for a trial to see how I was in an automatic and we got along instantly and I felt confident learning to drive with him. Matt has a true talent for teaching people how to drive, he breaks everything down into easily manageable chunks so he doesn’t overwhelm you and gets you to repeat it until you’re confident. He didn’t teach me to pass my test, he taught me to be a confident driver and I couldn’t have done it without him. Matt is also great value for money, the knowledge he gives you and the extra’s e.g. help passing your theory test are really useful. I have no doubt if I hadn’t learnt to drive with Matt I would have given up learning to drive."

"I had tried driving lessons with an instructor a few years ago and was completely put off by the experience, but decided to give driving a second chance when I moved to Orpington (BR5). Having had such a negative experience previously Matt was very understanding and extremely patient with me. He pushed me to do my best and was full of positivity when I doubted myself. I passed my test today first time, and I can honestly say it's all down to Matt and his amazing guidance. Now I can drive it's opened up a whole new world of freedom and even allowed me to achieve my dream job which requires me to have a driving license. It was also a bonus for me that Matt offered an NHS discount. If you're thinking about driving lessons I'd absolutely recommend him! I used to dread driving lessons before I met Matt (and have nightmares about driving), and now everytime I know I'm getting in the car I'm excited. My confidence has grown in such a dramatic way and I can't thank Matt enough!"

"The reasons behind me choosing Matt Shurmer Driving School were due to the local reviews and recommendations on social media were fantastic. The thought of learning to drive was absolutely terrifying to me but after my first couple of lessons with Matt I felt this was something I could achieve with his patience and guidance. The nerves stayed with me throughout but had it not have been for his confidence in me I would have given up. Matt was fantastic! He was calm and clear with instructions. If I made a mistake he would simply get me out of the error and then talk it through explaining how to approach it next time. Matt would also highlight when I had done something well which was a huge encouragement. I would absolutely recommend you. For anyone learning to drive I believe Matts way of making you feel at ease behind the wheel is half the battle over for nervous students like myself. Information and instructions were given in such a clear and concise way that it was never overloaded and makes the learning process relaxed and even enjoyable! There is nothing to change- keep doing exactly what you are doing!"

“I chose Matt Shurmer Driving School because they were very local to me and also I had seen many of their vehicles around on the roads-more than any other driving school.

Learning to drive with Matt was really great. He made me feel very relaxed and comfortable every single lesson and even on the morning of the test. Towards the end I felt more like I was going out for a drive with one of my friends rather than a driving lesson.

Matt's methods were great. If I made a mistake he would be sure to explain why its wrong and how to improve it with great detail so I fully understood what I did. He also made sure that you know when you have done something well. I would 100% recommend you to friends and family. For the simple reason of feeling so calm and relaxed while driving.

The atmosphere was always really great. I honestly can't think of anything to improve. Everything was spot on and I'm really pleased with the whole experience.”

“I was looking for a driving school/instructor for my driving lessons. I went online and started checking the reviews of various local driving schools. Matt Shurmer Driving school stood apart as it had most 5 star reviews and excellent testimonials. I was really pleased to read those reviews and so many positive results. So, I decided to give it a go and now having passed my exam with one fault, couldn’t have asked for more. Overall, my learning experience has been brilliant. I think, in my case apart from being able to drive, being confident during driving was also one of the goals. The patient and positive approach by Matt really helped me overcome my doubts and pass my driving test. Matt has a very positive persona and it reflects on his teaching methods. Be it manoeuvres or roundabouts, Matt is always patient and offers positive feedback. He never loses his cool and is very good at motivating and building the essential confidence required as a new driver. I would recommend you to my friends. Whenever someone decides to take driving lessons, it’s a big commitment on their time and money. Having gone through this process successfully with Matt, I would recommend my friends to take lessons from Matt. I am confident that with Matt’s positive and professional attitude, he will them get full value for their time and money that they decide to spend on their driving. Honestly, I got more than what I had expected, can't think of anything else that could have been done better. Thanks a lot for preparing me for my driving exam and helping pass the same.”

“I chose Matt Shurmer Driving School because my sister passed first time with them. Learning to drive was much more enjoyable and fun than what I first thought- also first starting it wasn’t as complicated or as nerve wracking as I anticipated.

Matt's teaching methods were really calm and helped me learn really easily- you made the lessons fun and I looked forwards to having them.

You helped me get over my low confidence and driving anxiety from being so calm and approachable to talk about being nervous.

I would recommend to my friends because the quality of teaching is really high and it helped me, my sister and my brother to all pass first time.”

“I chose Matt Shurmer Driving School because I was new to the area and didn't know which driving school would be the best. On researching the driving schools around Orpington I noticed that Matt Shurmer Driving school had very good reviews. When I emailed to inquire about the availability and structure of the lessons, I received a comprehensive response almost immediately! The initial contact was very positive. I initially had a few lessons with a manual car but I decided to switch to automatic. I didn't know what to expect but the personalised teaching approach made it easy for me to progress well with learning. Once in the driver's seat for the first time the experience is totally different. I was nervous and didn't have confidence but Matt was very reassuring and encouraging which instilled confidence in me. Matt's teaching methods are easy to follow, remember and apply. He's very professional, motivating, gives credit where its due and he's very patient with learners and understands that people learn differently. He is also flexible with his lesson times should the need arise and is always punctual for lessons. He communicates effectively and in good time. Without a doubt I would recommend Matt and Matt's Shurmer Driving School to anyone looking for value for their money and for solid training in the fundamentals of driving. I can't think of anything you could have done differently. Please keep producing more good drivers:-).”

“I had seen Matt Shurmer around a lot and also had 2 friends who had used them before, both highly recommending them. I always expected that learning how to drive was going to be difficult for me as I am heavy handed and have very little coordination. I started by leaning in a manual and quickly realised that I would be more suited with auto, as it would be one less thing to worry about. Once I stared leaning auto with Matt, I was much more comfortable. His positive approach built up my confidence and I was finding somethings easier than I thought they would be. Matt was a very positive teacher that made me feel comfortable with little worries. Some aspects that I was finding hard with other teachers, like manoeuvres, he broke down into small easy steps that made it much easier and less daunting. I will defiantly be recommending Matt Shurmer to anyone looking to drive. They have great instructors that have made learning to driving fun and a lot simpler than I thought it would be. Once again thank you so much for all your help, you made it a lot easier than I thought it would be. I got there in the end.”

"I chose Matt Shurmer Driving School because it had become highly recommended by a number of friends and offered automatic lessons. I was extremely nervous to start but learning to drive on an automatic really helped overcome the nerves.

Despite being nervous, Matt was able to put me at ease with his calm demeanour, effective instructing and great conversations. Matt was always firm but fair. He never sugar- coated when I made mistakes but he was also quick to mention when I had done well. It was a great balance between praise and understanding my own mistakes which created an incredibly productive learning environment.

Learning to drive with Matt has made me enjoy driving and become a more confident driver than I thought possible. My experience and those of my friends have all been so positive that I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Matt to anyone and everyone who wants to learn how to drive."

“I chose Matt Shurmer Driving School because everyone I spoke to about learning to drive had a very positive experience with Matt.

I thought Matt’s method of teaching was great. I learned at a good pace and never felt uncomfortable in the lessons.

Matt made it quite clear on a lesson to lesson basis what I’d done well and not so well. I would definitely recommend you.

After speaking to people who learned elsewhere it seems I had the best experience.”

“I chose Matt Shurmer Driving School because it was a well established, reliable, flexible, reasonably priced company in the area I was based. I was also very impressed on their response time when I contacted them in regards to taking me on for lessons. All the information you could need is clearly stated on their website. I enjoyed learning to drive! My driving instructor Matt took my previous experience into consideration and worked alongside me to help me progress further and pass my test quickly. He was very supportive throughout. The experience was better than expected. Matt's teaching methods were very straightforward and easy to grasp. He was always very patient and understanding if it took me more than once or twice to get something right. He always gave good explanations as to why we did or didnt need to do something keeping the process fun and lighthearted with some bad dad jokes along the way. I have already recommended the driving school and Matt in particular to five individuals who are interested in learning to drive within the next year and will continue to give credit where its due. I cant help but sing Matt's praises enough and couldn't fault him and his commitment. I may be biased but I cant think of anything that could have been handled better.”

"I chose Matt Shurmer Driving School because of the reviews I saw about it when looking for driving lessons. Learning to drive was a steady climb where I improved each lesson. I thought that the process would be a lot more difficult with pitfalls however this was not the case.

Matt's teaching methods were very effective at explaining aspects of driving. Matt used different scenarios to explain flaws in my driving which I could build upon.

I would recommend Matt to all of my friends because of his friendliness and the effective teaching methods used. I cannot think of anything that needed improving with the service that I was provided."

"I chose Matt Shurmer Driving School as Matt was recommended by a work friend. I also found the website easily accessible and it had a friendly feel with the use of pictures. It also showed a high first pass rate! Learning to drive was much less stressful than I had imagined. Although I was nervous a lot, reassurance was always given and I was never made to feel silly or incompetent. Having mock tests and driving regular routes was a great help and really had a positive impact on my driving experience. Matt is a great instructor. He was always so patient, friendly and kind. His methods were fantastic and suited my learning style completely, from finding ways to remember manoeuvres to gently prompting me to remember what I had already learned previously. Matt always responded quickly to queries and always found time to fit me in for lessons. I would definitely recommend Matt Shurmer to family and friends; the quality of teaching during lessons was amazing. I felt safe at all times during lessons even if I was nervous, which is reassuring for first time drivers. The patience and skill provided during lessons and my very positive experience with Matt, would urge me to recommend this driving school to anyone wanting to learn how to drive. Honestly, I cannot fault any part of my experience. Matt always managed to organise lessons around my work pattern and kept me informed of any changes. The teaching style was perfect for me and Matt is amazing at his job, managing to teach, de-stress and keep me smiling at the end of every lesson."

“I chose Matt Shurmer Driving School because I was looking for a local instructor who could teach me quickly in an automatic and one who would be patient with me given my lack of confidence. I rang a few companies up but I was really impressed with the quick and professional response from Matt. This professionalism continued throughout my learning experience which was structured and had defined goals explained to me throughout. I always felt Matt had my best interests at heart ensuring that I progressed at the right pace for me so that I didn’t spend more on lessons than I needed to. Matt instilled good driving skills in me from my first lesson and taught me to be an intuitive driver but whenever he saw that I needed extra guidance with a particular aspect of driving he gave me the techniques to use which really helped. Matt gave me all the knowledge I needed to do my test and pass first time! I would recommend Matt Shurmer Driving School to anyone looking for an instructor who is professional, friendly and one who will cater their teaching to your individual needs.”
