"Really would recommend! Gurps was so incredibly supportive and helpful with getting me to pass, was extremely flexible and helpful with tests and resulted in a first time pass with 0 faults! The dedication to his students and support he gives them really is a testament to how great this school is!"
Niamh Oliver
"I had driving anxiety and after a few bad experiences with other instructors I was recommended Gurps. He is very calm, patient, he helped to overcome all my fears and pass with only 2 minors. I highly recommend him for anyone looking for a good, reliable instructor!"
Dilnoza
"Having recently moved to the West Midlands and finding out that I have a baby on the way, I thought it pertinent to finally confront my long lasting standoff with obtaining my driving license. Having failed a couple of tests in my younger years, I had multiple single lessons with several different driving schools, however I always felt too nervous and uncomfortable. My first lesson with Amarjit immediately changed my driving experience. He was calm, patient and attentive. Because of him, I have gone from dreading lessons, to actually enjoying doing them."
Steven Kerrane
"Gurps was my 3rd attempt at finding a driving instructor that worked for me and I am so glad to have found him! I was with Gurps for just under a year when I passed my test. He was a great guy to learn to drive with. He made me comfortable and we had a laugh every lesson. He always managed to work around my job and found times that worked best for me. Almost 6 months after passing my test, Gurps still keeps in touch to see how I am doing with driving and still offers advice!"
Nicola Santon
"I passed my driving test first time thanks to my amazing instructor Gurps! He was incredibly patient and professional, with excellent communication throughout every lesson. His teaching style made everything clear and easy to understand, which really boosted my confidence on the road. I would highly recommend him to anyone learning to drive!"

"Amarjit is amazing! He is honest, always on time, and very patient. He would never make you feel stressed. He is friendly and we had great chats during lessons. He tailored each lesson to fit my needs and gave me practical tips beyond just passing the test. He is not just a driving instructor, he is like a friend!"
Hussam Eldeen
"I have had driving lessons in the past in a manual car but found them quite stressful so I decided to give automatic a go this time, hoping it would be easier. Not all credit can go to the lack of clutch though as Amarjit has played a massive part in increasing my confidence in driving. He is patient, informative and charismatic and that has done wonders for putting me at ease. I am never nervous about asking a question or asking to re-do a manoeuvre. I would highly recommend Select Drive Driving School."
Rachel Gordon
"I was recommended Gurps through a relative after struggling with my former instructor. Gurps is very professional, motivating and extremely patient. He is a great teacher and really lovely too. Passed with only 1 minor fault too. Thank you for everything!"
Eva Tselepis
"First of all Gurps is a legend. I started an intensive driving course 1.5 months ago and I have just passed my driving test. He is an extremely good teacher and has great attention to detail. If you are thinking about booking, just do it. You will not regret it. Big bonus that the car you will learn to drive in is amazing."
Jeevan Doherty
"I had never had a lesson before learning to drive with Gurps. Thanks to his patient and thorough teaching style, I passed my driving test on the first attempt. What stood out the most was his commitment to ensuring I not only passed but became a confident and safe driver. We also did an additional motorway lesson after I had passed my test, which was extremely helpful in boosting my confidence on faster roads."
Donovan
"I have passed my driving test today, it was my first try. Amarjit's teaching was brilliant. Before Amarjit, I used to have lessons with a different instructor at a different school that traumatised me and I was scared to drive for a while. However, following changing my instructor and having lessons with Amarjit, I was able to improve extremely and restore my confidence to drive. I absolutely enjoyed my lessons and I will always be grateful."
Rose Pier
"Honestly hands down the best driving instructor I have had! Gurps makes you feel so comfortable, teaches you in a way that easily programs in your head and got me a pass on my first time. Highly recommend and best about! Wish all the best to any learners that have the privilege of using this driving school."
Karan Sunner
"I passed my driving test today and could not have done it without Gurps. He is a great instructor who made sure I was fully prepared for the driving test. He knows all of the test routes and exactly what the examiners are looking for, which makes the driving test incredibly easy. His overall car knowledge is really good which enables him to provide you with detailed insights into how the car works. I had been at university for a while but he was able to get me up to scratch in a very short space of time. Certainly the best instructor out there!"
Theo Smith
"I had Gurps as my instructor and just passed this morning. He has been a great instructor in the short time I spent with him. He is always patient with you and explains everything very thoroughly and clearly so you can understand exactly what needs to be done. He is also very friendly and easy to chat to as you drive and he is great at keeping you calm in the car."
