“Simon is a great instructor. I came to Simon few months ago to get my EDT. Coming from a different country where the driving techniques are very different as compared to Ireland, Simon helped me overcome many of those flaws. He is calm, composed and explains you the mistakes really nicely. Today, on my driving test day, we had a 1 hour driving lesson which helped me calm my nerves and motivated me to pass the test. I would definitely recommend Simon’s Aim2drive.ie school of motoring.
P.S. I passed my test with only 2 mistakes marked on the sheet. Thanks to Simon.”

“Simon is 100% the best in the business! I came to Simon a month before my test and he has an extremely professional approach of teaching you the best and safest way to drive. Simon is extremely knowledgeable in all aspects of driving and instructing, he really does go above and beyond for his students, very easy to arrange lessons with! Honestly if it wasn't for simon I wouldn't of passed my test first time with minimal marks! Highly recommend Simon & Aim2drive to anyone looking to past the driving test🚘 Cheers Simon🙌🚘”

“Best decision I made was choosing Simon as my instructor, I couldn’t recommend him enough. I reached out to him with less than two weeks notice until my exam, and he managed to drill down my problem areas in a highly effective way and transform my driving in such a short space of time! Something i was starting to despair over. His teaching style was intuitive and really stuck with me. He knows exactly what to do to get you to pass on the day, and knows the level of standard required.
Lastly, i really enjoyed every lesson I had with him, he makes driving an extremely enjoyable process. It's clear he really cares about how his students do as I had found him very supportive during my short but v. worthwhile time with him. He's definitely a high recommend from me as a driving instructor in the Galway area as I had a few prior him. You'll find yourself not dreading a driving lesson but instead actually looking forward to one with Simon. I'm still in shock he managed to pass me in such short space of time! :-)”

“If you’re looking for quality instructor to help you pass your test and a teacher to help you understand driving look no further. Always giving you his everything, messages you asap and will make you a better driver from lesson one! Guys work with him and listen to his honest advice , you’ll not regret it. I fell out of love with driving but then I had a lesson with Simon. Knew it was different from lesson one , he told me my strengths and weakness, brought down to the basics and built me back up. Today , I passed my test and I am beaming! He honestly is the best. Keep it up Simon👍🏼”

“Simon performed a miracle in 9 days. So I thought I could drive but after one lesson, Simon made me realise that there are so many things you need to do and certain ways of doing them. Was convinced after that first lesson that I was doomed and just over a week later I passed my test on the first go! Simon has a really good teaching style and adapts to you as a person so it's easy to understand and follow his directions. He has a huge wealth of knowledge too and made me feel confident going into my test. Book Simon, you won't be disappointed!!! Thanks Simon.”

“Simon is a EXCELLENT instructor. I am coming from a country where the driving techniques are very different and also we drive on the right side of the road. For me was very difficult to get used to drive on the left side. Simon helped me overcome many of those flaws. With a lot patience he explained me every step of driving test. I was very nervous and didn't believe that I will pass but he was there to support me and push me to give my best. I passed my test on first try with just 3 marks. I would definitely recommend Simon’s Aim2drive.ie school of motoring to everyone.”

“I went to Simon three weeks before my test, I was a nervous wreck and I was not able to drive. Simon helped me pass my test and be confident on the road.

“If you look up the word Genius in the dictionary you are going to see a picture of Simon at Aim2Drive. He is an absolute gentleman and a brilliant mentor. I was with another driving school a couple of years ago and I was so disappointed with the experience. Best day's work going on line this time around and reading reviews about Simon at Aim2Drive. As soon as I rang him and explained I had taken the test before he completely put me at ease. Don't look at any other instructor in Galway to get you through the test no one comes close to this guy. Thanks a million Simon! “

“Simon is a very professional instructor, he was very responsive when setting up the lessons and his training methods put me at ease when preparing for the test.
He knows exactly what he’s talking about, highly recommended.”

“To whoever the present or perspective driver is out there, wanting to PASS your driving test. Look no further. I was a driver before I started lessons with Simon and the service I received was second to none. I had driven with other instructors in the past and was left feeling unmotivated and hopeless. Simon replaced the knowledge I had with his own, updated method and helped me succeed. Where my confidence was gone, it has been replaced. When my nerves took over, they were put to sleep. I hand on heart couldn't recommend him enough. Thanks again Aim2Drive 😊🙏”

“Simon is an excellent instructor. I came to him about a month before my test as a very nervous driver with a few bad habits. Simon is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about what he does. The lessons were very relaxed, easy to arrange and enjoyable. Simon goes above and beyond for his students, he collects you from your home/work which is a huge advantage, and even accompanies you to your driving test. Would urge anyone learning to drive to go for Aim2Drive, Simon is the best in the business.”
- Molly Hegarty
“I came to Simon with 2 weeks to my test date having not driven in about 12 months. Booking and scheduling lessons with Aim2Drive was super easy. Simon is a great instructor; very professional, clear and patient. His style is relaxed and calm which for me was important. His first piece of advice was to enjoy the driving and that made a huge difference. Come test day, Simon had everything organised and couldn't of been more helpful. Would highly recommend. You can quickly tell that Simon's experience is extensive and that you are in good hands. Thanks again! 👍”

“Simon is the best driving instructor in Galway, hands down! I had countless lessons and instructors but still had no confidence or control when driving. Simon was able to fix my problems straight away, and even better, he was able to explain to me why I was having the problems in the first place. He went out of his way to fit me into his busy schedule at short notice and I can't thank him enough for that as it meant I passed first time. If you want pass your test, this is your man! Thanks Simon!”
- Alan Devlin
“Simon is a great instructor went to him a month before my test with some bad habits and not a lot of driving time and with a few lessons he had all those bad habits gone. Went out of his way many times so make sure I passed the test. Very knowledgeable and knows exactly what he’s talking about. Best instructor about.”
- Dylan Mateos
“Simon is a brilliant, professional instructor. He always responds quickly, and will organize lessons that work with your schedule.
He is methodical, adapts his teaching method to your style of learning, and focuses on the root cause of any weaknesses, in order to resolve them promptly.
He is definitely one of, if not, the best driving instructors in Galway. The RSA "Quality Approved" badge is rightfully deserved.
Would highly recommend.”
- James Bryan
“Simon is a great guy and great instructor, really makes everything to do with driving logical and easy to understand. Everything he says and does is for the benefit of the learner! Very easy to schedule lessons and very cheap for the quality of instruction your getting from him!
Top guy and top teacher would massively recommend working with him!
Cheers Simon!”
