Kevin is an awesome bloke. Very down to earth, always up for a laugh and very laid back. He makes you feel at ease and comfortable when your in the car with him and makes it fun and simple. He tells you how to improve and let's you get on with it rather than being parked on the side if the road and talking about it. I passed my test 1st time with Kevin and he predicted it would only take me 8 lessons before I was ready for my test so I take my hat off to him and can't thank him enough. I would recommend him to any1 who wants to learn so look no further and give Mr Kevin Blakeley a call. God luck everyone. Thanks again mate.

Passed with Kevin first time and after having no previous driving experience whatsoever! He helped me build up my confidence on the roads and stopped me from having a major breakdown before my test! He's a really lovely guy and I'd recommend him to anyone!
Kevin truly is a legend!
He made being a learner driver fun and simple; Not only that, he also put up with my foul language and unnecessary road rage!
I must say I never felt short changed with Kevin. He would pick me up from work of home and NEVER brought me back early. He never kept me talking at the side of the road and, most impressively, he quickly predicted when I would be ready to take my practical test so I didn't end up wasting any money on unnecessary lessons, and after about ten lessons I passed first time.
So my advice to anybody looking for an instructor would be - give Kevin a call and get your theory test done NOW because it won't be long before you'll be booking your practical test.
Good luck!
1st time driving this year, went with another school but was rubbish, came across Kev and he was welcoming.
Best isntructor in Bristol i would say, made you feel welcome, relaxed and all his comedy while you was driving which was a big help as you learnt more that way.
If your thinking of driving then choose Kev, I passed 1st time with him. Totally awesome guy.
CHEERS KEV!!!!
I was nervous to start my driving lessons, however Kevin made me feel at ease and helped me build up confidence when driving. He explained everything really well, was patient, constructive and always remained positive. He surpassed my expectations of him and even helped me with my theory - which along with my practical i passed first time. He is a great driving instructor and a great bloke and i would reccomend him to anyone!!
If anybody can get our layback son to pass his test first attempt, they deserve my time to type a review. Kev was patient, explained things clearly, critcized constructively (and that was just advising me on how to sit in with him for some inbetween practice drives !!). Matt respected Kev and listened to all the instructions given. He taught safe road sense as well as general driving advise and tips. You cant help but like the man who gets just as excited about the learner's progress and eventual pass as they do themselves.Thank You SO much Kev. I would recommend you to anyone who wants an excellent instructor. Only one last thing, dont do like my husband did and bet the main TV that a first time pass wasn't possible, unless you are planning a trip to an electrical retailer in the near future!!
I was absolutely terrified when I first got in the car, but Kevin helped me gain confidence. He’s an awesome guy and has a laugh and a joke whilst teaching, which really puts you at ease and makes driving lessons less of a chore and something to enjoy. Kevin is great at explaining things and never gives up on you, even after the hundredth left hand reverse gone wrong, and will try things different ways till you get it. Amazing guy and would recommend him to everyone!!!

I cannot believe I passed my driving test first time! Full credit goes to Kevin for that one. Before I started lessons with him, I knew absolutely nothing about driving. I was totally hopeless, and nothing less than the best instructor in the universe could teach this human being how not to run over anyone! And after a couple lessons, I actually looked forward to my driving lessons!
Kev's the nicest guy, really chill and brilliant to have a laugh with which really took the edge off of the fact I was in control of a potential killing machine. He even helped me out with how to pass my theory test and later found out that my friend's instructor didn't even mention it.
He made my whole learning to drive experience a breeze and made everything seem so easy. It was like meeting up with a friend when it was time for our lesson!
I've recommended him to all my friends, and we all agree that he's awesome! Thank you so much for everything dude, I already miss driving lessons! :D
all i can say is that Kevin is one amazing guy, he has a great sense of humor can always have a laugh, and he is like a freaking jedi for driving ! before driving with him i was nervous and hasty everywhere having failed my test 3 times, a few lessons with him and i was good to go, he is a top guy and just amazing all round he made my driving experiences truly enjoyable and cannot thank him enough for that. I will miss my lessons with him on Saturdays, thanks for everything :D i really appreciate it and cannot thank you enough; TOP DAWG !!
