i passed my driving test on the 28th of february 2024. it was my first time and i got 0 drivers faults. i truly believe that it was down to stephen bentham. i could not have asked for a better driving instructor. thought the 4 months i was learning i had my ups and downs but stephen always managed to turn them positive. i could not recommend Get Passed driving anymore. they are an amazing pair of people and they are here to help when you feel like your struggling.

I recently passed with Steve, one of the instructors for Get Passed. I'd highly recommend him as an instructor. No matter how confused you are on anything driving related he seems to be able to find a new way to help explain it to you. There's no such thing as a bad question and you're always supported to be a better driver which helps massively when preparing for a driving test. Anyone looking for an instructor in the Chorley and Preston area should definitely consider learning with Get Passed.

I passed my driving test mid april this year. I had Hollie as my driving instructor and couldn’t recommend her more! She was very calm and patient, which made my experience so much better. I also did a few mock tests/ lessons with Stephen who i also enjoyed learning with. 10/10 recommend xx

I passed my driving test at the start of July with 2 minors with Steve as my instructor. I couldn't recommend a better driving instructor, he made sure i was confident with every step of the test and was always reliable.
He made my lessons enjoyable and was really patient with me throughout my learning.

Steve is the best driving instructor. After many years of trying and failing with other driving instructors, Steve gave me the confidence and time to develop my driving. Steve is a very committed, skilful and patient teacher who always try’s his best to make you feel comfortable. 1000% recommend
Mel A - Passed April 2024 !!!
Steve was always very encouraging and down to earth which made learning a lot easier. He always made sure you knew what you needed to do to pass so the test day was less daunting. Highly recommend.
Madi - Passed July 2023
Such a great instructor that brings out the skills to pass my test in a shortest possible time, which was difficult for me with other instructors.

Steve’s many years of teaching became evident when he became my driving instructor. His teaching was clear, helpful, and straight to the point. He helped me to look at my achievements in a positive way, rather than putting me down if I made a mistake. He allowed me to learn at my own pace, meaning I wasn’t forced to repeatedly do one thing unnecessarily or do anything that I wasn’t comfortable with at that point. He is able to transform his methods of teaching to the person he is teaching, and this was crucial in helping me to pass my test. I would highly recommend Steve if you want to learn how to drive.
Lewis - Passed in November 2023
Steve helped overcome a sense of fear with driving and even when I was worried or didn’t know what I was doing, Steve fully explained everything and helped me through the fear of driving. Throughout my lesson and then my driving test Steve encouraged me through everything, this helped a lot with my confidence to drive and once I passed my test I was a fully confident and capable driver and this is all thanks to Steve.

I recently took some refresher driving lessons with Steve, and I can’t recommend him highly enough. His teaching background gives him a knack for breaking things down simply, making everything easy to grasp. He keeps the lessons lighthearted and is always cracking jokes, which really helps with staying relaxed. Steve is a great instructor to have. 100% recommend!
Andrew F - Refresher course after 10 years off the road
I learnt with Steve and he was a great driving instructor. His prior experiences being a teacher has given him a lot of different ways to teach certain things to his students such as his way of telling me how to check blind spots was by repeatedly telling me it until he just began to watch every time instead of telling me so I knew how to do by myself and helped me grow confidence as a new driver.
Alex- Passed April 2024
A great driving instructor, who will go above and beyond to make sure you pass, gives you that reassurance and encouragement, something to look forward to every time you learn, gives you more knowledge and understanding about the roads and couldn’t ask for a better instructor.
Liam - Passed 1st Time January 2023
Before I started to learn with Steve I had already sat a driving test with another instructor and unfortunately failed. This knocked all my confidence and I never thought I’d get behind the wheel again, until one of my friends reminded my that our maths teacher from high school was now a driving instructor.
I reached out to Steve and he took me on with no questions asked and promised me that he’d bring my confidence back and I’d pass my test in no time. Lessons with Steve were absolutely amazing and I learnt to not only become a more confident driver but I came away with so much more knowledge and I miss my weekly lessons and our chats. I was only with Steve for two months before I past my test with zero faults.
I have recommended Steve to loads of my friends and they all love learning with him too and I will always recommend Get Passed Driving school to anyone that asks.

I passed with Steve first time, in December 2023, following five months of lessons. He was very knowledgeable both of driving theory and the roads around Preston. He was calm during lessons, gave constructive criticism and explained road markings and signage throughout. I would recommend Steve to any young person wishing to learn to drive.

When booking my first driving session I was initially nervous about how my instructor would handle the lessons, however my first time driving with Steve completely reassured me, he was patience and his teaching was effective. He eased my worries while keeping me on my toes and ready to learn. Whenever overthinking, Steve offered an optimistic approach in assuring I was doing just fine and never made me feel like any of my questions were stupid ones. Not only this, I had high goals and expectations on how soon I wanted to pass and Steve never doubted my ability and i ended up passing my test in just under 3 months of learning with him. Steve was the best instructor I could’ve asked for and I am certain he is the best instructor anyone could have- giving people the ability to drive confidently and independently while also offering a comfortable environment to thrive in.
