I passed first time with 1 minor. Big thanks to Kirsty she is a great instructor. Again, thank you Kirsty

I had failed two tests before moving here, and needed an instructor who could build up my confidence and iron out my bad habits and mistakes. Kirsty has a strict approach which can be tough at first but is very beneficial if you are willing to take on board her advice because by the time you sit your test you are at an excellent standard and are thinking about your driving beyond passing the test. Passed with 2 minors! Thank you for your help and patience Kirsty!

Kirsty has been a great instructor and I can't thank her enough. I was very nervous in the early days but Kirsty really helped me through this. I would recommend Kirsty to anyone thinking of taking lessons. Kirsty has high standards so you can be sure that you will be a safe and confident driver. I passed first time last week and I am now the proud owner of my own Mini! Thanks again Kirsty!

When I lived in Ayr, I'd had two driving instructors and failed four tests. By that point, I was a wreck and couldn't face driving any more. A year later, I'd got a new job and moved to Glasgow, so I decided to learn to drive with Kirsty from Mini Drivers.

Kirsty's a great teacher. Her approach is very strict and disciplined, and her standards are very high. She won't just get you good enough to pass a test, she actually teaches you to drive properly and safely. If you listen to what she says, driving becomes 10 times easier. She'll point out the little mistakes, and give you constructive advice to help change things. When I started, I was panicking and messing up the smallest things. Within a few weeks, I was a confident driver and I was noticing my mistakes before Kirsty had to point them out. All my nervousness about roundabouts, slip roads, and turning right at large junctions disappeared.

Kirsty is probably the only person in the world that could have gotten me through a driving test: and I passed first time in Glasgow. By that time, my driving and attitude had changed so much that I was disappointed that I got one or two minors! I couldn't have done that with any other instructor. If you've failed before, or aren't a confident driver, give Kirsty a call. If she can get me through a test, she can get you through a test too.

Just passed my test yesterday first time with only one minor. Kirsty's a fantastic, patient, friendly and very thorough instructor. What more can I say? I'd recommend her 110%! I'm going to miss the lessons though! haha

Thanks Kirsty!!! :D

This week, Kirsty made it possible for me to put 'Full UK Driving Licence' on my CV for job applications! Only for her this would not have been possible! I had taken many lessons with other driving instructors before going to Kirsty. I had also failed driving tests before taking lessons with her. She is by far the BEST and most THOROUGH driving instructor I've ever come across. She has a passion for her job and she has a good sense of humour too. This is very important when learning to drive. She most definitely teaches above the test standard. Her flawless teaching got me through the driving test with with NO DRIVING FAULTS, at all at all :-) Thank you Kirsty for making it all possible x

Just bought my first car this weekend after passing last week with Kirsty. Thanks to her patience and good tutoring I managed to conquer turning right and not speed round those corners! I'd recommend mini-drivers to anyone who is looking for someone who can get those bad habits straightened out and help you pass your test with confidence. Thanks Kirsty!

Are you wondering whether or not to take lessons with mini drivers? well let me make the decision easy. 1) you will drive to a level above test standard. 2) you will be a safer driver. 3) you will pass quickly. I just passed my test yesterday! I can honestly say that kirsty shaw's teaching method is flawless.

Thank you so much kirsty for all your hard work.

Thoroughly enjoyed learning with Kirsty, I felt very confident and ready to take my test and passed first time today. I just picked MiniDrivers after searching online but I couldn't have chosen a better or more professional instructor and will certainly recommend Kirsty to anyone I know is looking for driving lessons. Thanks for everything Kirsty!

Kirsty is an excellent teacher and I would recommend her to anyone who wants to learn to drive well (and pass their test). I started off in July as a bag of nerves behind the wheel. Now, less than 5 months later I've passed my test and love driving because I feel equipped with the knowledge and skills to drive safely. So much of this is down to Kirsty who knows her stuff and is a natural teacher. Lessons are fun!

Hey, after switching from another driving company to minidrivers my instructor became Tracy Whitelaw who is a brilliant one. Tracy's very patient and makes learning to drive easier and a fun experience. She makes you feel very comfortable and feels more like a friend than an instructor, and driving her mini aint so bad either. If it wasn't for her i would not have past my test first time on friday the 13th of November, which turned out not so unlucky!
