After having tried to pass my test with four instructors before I thought I would never succeed in passing my test. I had come to accept the fact that I would be bussing it all my life with my masses of school work rolling up and down the bus floor. This was until I was given Lenny and Lisa's number by a friend in work (Stacey Ordish's mum). As soon as I spoke to Lisa on the phone, I felt like I was speaking to an old friend and was instantly relaxed, giggling away with her for ages. Then of course I met Len, who is the most patient and relaxed man in the universe. He built up my confidence in no time and worked at a pace that was right for me, even picking me up in my school lunchtime for lessons! I started my lessons in late November and had passed both my theory and practical first time by mid April. I'm still on cloud nine now, darting around in my little car. If it wasn't for Lenny and Lisa, I would definately still be scraping my school work up off the bus floor. I can't thank them enough. They've literally changed my life. I've passed my test and had an absolute scream in the process, not to mention a terrifying moment, when a crazy person crashed into the back of me and Len but even then, Lenny and Lisa were like a sea of calm to reassure me.
If you want to learn to drive then you really must go with this driving school. Lenny and Lisa are ace and they'll make it their mission to get you through and reassure you every step of the way. When I passed I was so happy but also a bit gutted that I wouldn't see them so much! Be ready for random phone calls you two!
Love ya's-T again

I was learning to drive with LWM for just under 3 months, I had lessons before but my confidence was really low and I gave up. When I started with LWM, Lenny and Lisa were very reassuring and gave me great support, with this my confidence grew. Lessons with Lenny were really relaxed, at a pace that suited me and very encouraging. Lenny is very friendly and easy to talk so we had a laugh in the car too. LWM is very cost effective and flexible I was able to schedule my lessons around my work and both Lenny and Lisa took the time to make sure I was happy with how my lessons were going. I passed both my theory and driving test first time, I was so pleased with myself and with LWM I recommended this driving school to my mates.
Thanks Laura from kensington

I started driving with LWM after my brother in law recommended Lenny as an instructor, I was originally looking at BSM, but he told me to give LWM a try instead.
Lenny is very relaxed and let me learn at my own pace, while encouraging me to progress to more advanced lessons. I always felt in a safe environment while driving, as I had confidence in him as an instructor, and I believe this allowed me to reach test standard more quickly than I expected to. The most important thing was you could tell that he actually cared whether you passed or not, and wanted you to do well – It wasn’t just another pay cheque.
His times were very flexible and the lessons were great value for money when compared to other driving schools I looked at.
I would definitely recommend LWM to anyone who is looking for lessons.

After months of taking driving lessons with another company my confidence was at zero and I was making no progress, I could not even imagine the day when I would be able to put in for a test let alone pass one. Talking to a colleague they recommended I speak to Lenny about taking lessons with him, he boosted my confidence straight away and every lesson I had I learnt more and more. I passed my test in October 2007 after the second attempt and I do believe this is thanks to the patience, moral boosting and teaching from Lenny.

I passed my test in February this year and I wonder how I managed anything before I passed. Lenny is a really relaxed and laid back instructor and gave me the confidence I needed. I was doing my lessons with another instructor before Lenny and although I had a couple of lessons I did not feel at all confident being in the drivers seat, until I contacted LWM driving school where I knew I would progress quickly. I felt confident in the car and confident driving. Lenny and Lisa were both great and supplied me with the tools I needed to pass both my theory and practical test. I also completed Pass Plus with LWM and it gave me a lot more confidence on the road and on the motorway. I would definitely recommend Lenny and Lisa to my family and friends and wish them a huge thank you for all the help and advise you give me.

After being with a different instructors and being let down a lot I stopped my driving lessons for twelve months then I started with LWM.With Lenny my confidence was boosted. Every lesson was different and informative always learning some thing new while also having a laugh, as Lenny is quite a joker, apart from when it comes to driving and the importance of the Highway Code. With lenny I passed both my theory and my practical test with only five minor faults with which your allowed fifteen and I believe that was down to the instruction that I received. Since passing I have been recommending everyone I know including my mate Mathew Johnson who used LWM and also passed first time on both theory and practical! So I would like to say thank you so much to both Lenny and Lisa for helping me with my driving licence!

I was one of those people who put off learning to drive all the time, knew I needed to learn but felt it was just a hassle until I started lessons with LWM. Lenny was a great instructor for me as he was always encouraging me and making me look forward to getting behind the wheel. I had a couple of lessons with other instructors with who I felt unsure and tense. With Lenny driving felt relaxed and I was constantly being encouraged to excel. I don’t think I would have a licence now if it weren’t for Lenny and Lisa's support. They helped me through my theory and my practical test, which I passed first time getting only three minor faults and for someone who hated the road beforehand that is really something. Thanks LWM.

I had never drove before. I heard about Lenny and Lisa’s driving school and begun lessons with them. Lenny learnt me the basics, he made things seem so easy and I learnt to drive in no time. I took my lessons over short period of time, two lessons a week over several months. I passed my theory test and my practical test first time with the help and support of Lenny and Lisa. I also took my pass plus with LWM driving school. This gave me the confidence to drive in all weather conditions and on the motorway. I highly recommend LWM Driving School to anybody and everybody.
Many thanks to Lenny and Lisa.

I took my very first driving lesson with LWM and I was very nervous but as soon as I got behind the wheel Lenny made me feel so comfortable and made driving so easy I knew this was the driving school for me. They never gave up on me (third times the charm) and would always keep me positive when I failed my first two tests which kept me focused on passing, otherwise I would have given up. Lisa and Lenny are the friendliest people you will ever meet and make driving as easy as possible for you. LWM is the best driving school around and I would recommend everyone to use them.

I started my lessons a few days after my 17th and once I got in the car on my first lesson I could see I was going to enjoy every moment of it. Lenny is very reassuring and patient which really made me feel a lot calmer during my lessons, and we would always have a laugh and a good talk. I was always eager for the next lesson and Lenny brings you through the process perfectly. I loved the fact that he tried to vary my routes for each lesson, and I found it a big help when he would be so flexible in where I would start and finish my lessons whether it was from sixth form or when I was on my way to work. During my lessons before my theory, Lenny would ask me questions whilst on the road which really helped me spot things that you may not normally notice which really benefited me. Even though I failed my first test, Lenny didnt let it get to me and encouraged me to stay positive, and im glad he did because I passed second time round with 2 minors which I was so happy about. I would recommend Lenny to anyone because I know they would be happy with him! I also want to mention Lisa who was brilliant and would always update me for my lessons and such, she is great and she too helped me pass! Both are brilliant! Thanks for putting up with me :)

I STARTED LEARNING TO DRIVE WITH ANOTHER DRIVING SCHOOL AND WERENT LEARNING MUCH AND DIDNT FULLY UNDERSTAND WHY I HAD TO DO STUFF, I FAILED MY FIRST DRIVING TEST AND MY CONFIDENT WAS REALLY LOW AND I GAVE UP, AFTER A YEAR I DECIDED TO START AGAIN WITH A DIFFERENT DRIVING SCHOOL WHICH WAS LWM, LENNY AND LISA WERE REALLY HELPFUL AND GAVE ME GREAT SUPPORT, I FELT MORE CONFIDENT AND PASSED MY DRIVING TEST FIRST TIME WITH THEM. I WAS ABLE TO LEARN AT MY OWN PACE AND THERE TIMES WERE FLEXIBLE. I HIGHY RECCOMMEND ANYONE TO LWM DRIVING SCHOOL.

I started my lessons with LWM in September and I was passed by the following year, Lenny makes you feel comfortable in the car, he has got so much patience which does calm you down a lot when you are in a fluster. I would recommend Lenny to anybody as I have already done so with a number of people. He taught my Boyfriend, and me and we both passed our practical test first time. Lenny and Lisa are very flexible and basically they will work with you, if you can work with them in return. I feel that Lenny and Lisa motivate you to do well and not to be disheartened when bad things happen, if you do become a member of Lenny and Lisa's driving school ask Lenny about my the tree accident when I first started my lessons. To sum this up basically if you want to have driving lessons go with LWM.

I was learning to drive with LWM for about 3 months and I passed my
theory and practical test first time! I learnt to drive in no time
because Lenny was so relaxed and reassuring whilst teaching me the
basics and the most difficult things. I had full help and support from
Lenny and Lisa while learning to drive and was able to develop my
driving skills and confidence on the road! I also took the pass plus
scheme with Lenny which allowed me to gain more road experience after
passing and become a confident, relaxed driver. I definitely recommend
LWM to anybody wanting to learn how to drive! They are definitely the
best driving school around and you’ll pass in no time!
Thank you Lenny and Lisa!

If you want to get your licence as soon as possible, here's the place you need to come to. LWM aim to do one thing, get you too pass your driving test. I did it in six months, whilst other friends I have took about 12-18 months. Lenny and Lisa were great and worked the lesson around me, so I could do it when I had the time (quite a feet considering I have two jobs!). Don't bother with any other driving school. LWM is the best, and you'll get all the skills, confidence and knowledge that you need to become a good driver. Thanks again guys.

I decided as soon as I had my 17th birthday back in October I wanted to get my driving licence ASAP. I started off with a local driving school, took my theory test within the first week to get me started, passed it first time. However my driving was going nowhere. I nearly gave up; I just didn't have the confidence. Then my boyfriend Chris recommended LWM after him and his mum passed with Lenny. I decided to give it a go in early March, having about 2 lessons a week. Lisa was really good at organizing lessons within my work hours etc and they were both really enthusiastic. Lenny makes you feel so relaxed it didn't feel like a chore anymore. I actually looked forward to my lessons! On Friday1st may, I had my test about half 10, the lesson before was excellent, really built up my confidence. I would recommend that time for your driving test, roads were clear and luckily it was a really nice day for me! I couldn't believe it when she said I passed! Lisa and Lenny have really helped me Chris and Chris,s Mum with something that can change the rest of your life. Thanks allot!!!. PS see you soon for my pass plus course! : )

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I started learning to drive with a large driving organisation who I thought would be really good, but ended up getting ripped off and after hours of lessons was still no further along to taking my test. My boyfriend gave me Lenny's number as he had passed with him first time. I remember my first lesson and was so happy that I was actually doing some real driving and not going through all the normal checks ... here's the pedals, here's the indicator (like my first couple of lessons with the previous instructor!) I passed my theory within a month of starting lessons with Lenny and was gaining confidence. It took me a few goes to pass my test as I was a nervous wreck each time and just went to pieces on the day! I was starting to get frustrated but Lenny never lost his patience with me and always asked me what I felt I needed more practice on and we would do it till I felt happy. I once remember doing about 10 emergency stops in Sainsbury's car park, I was actually ok with them I just liked doing them and probably sent Lenny home with Whiplash!!
I probably would've given up if I hadn't had Lenny for my instructor, he and Lisa kept telling me I would get there and they made sure I did. It really annoys me now when I hear people talking about their driving instructors and how they shout at them or how they won't put them in for their test, Lenny really wants you to pass and he is just as nervous as you and gutted as you are when you don't pass. I'm so happy I have finally passed; it's one of the best feelings when the examiner tells you you've passed! I really don't know what I'd do without my little car now and it's all thanks to Lenny and Lisa who were so patient and helpful. I would recommend them to anyone no matter what experience or confidence level you have, they're great! Thanks again guys.

Lenny is a brilliant instructor and I would recommend him to anybody. He worked at my pace and in a time that suited me backed up by Lisa who was great at booking lessons around my busy lifestyle. I had taken lessons with another company and after switching to LWM I never looked back, my driving confidence was up and it was all coming to me so easily.
I have recommended Lenny & Lisa to my friends and family and they all think there great too!
Try them out for yourself!
Thanks

I began my driving lessons in February with a local driving instructor, who showed little patience, after getting shouted at for the mistakes I made it knocked my confidence completely and I lost the motivation to learn to drive. It wasn’t until my friend, who passed first time, recommended LWM that I found the determination to learn again. I started my lessons with Lenny a month later, and I was able to pass first time by the summer. I would definitely recommend LWM to anyone. With Lenny’s encouraging and relaxed approach I was able to gain the confidence and skills to learn everything I needed to pass. I can honestly say I enjoyed every lesson. Lenny was able to adapt the lessons to a way which suited me, and I found myself learning so much every lesson and with Lenny’s help I was able to pass my theory first time. It was reassuring to be able to have a driving instructor who cared. The best thing knew how dedicated and committed he was to not only helping me pass, but also ensuring I was a confident, safe driver. I was able to learn to drive around a time that suited me and the lessons were definitely great value for money. Overall, learning to drive was an enjoyable experience, and I’m extremely grateful for both Lenny and Lisa’s help. Thank you!

I started my lessons with Lwm on the day I turned 17,I was recommended to them by my brother Karl flaherty and one of his mate’s Mathew Johnson who both passed with Len 1st Time. I was nervous to start but as soon as I got in the car all my nerves started to go, I was taken two and three lessons a week as I needed to get through it quick.
Lwm where very reliable and worked around my schedule, every lesson was fun and enjoyable I passed my test 1st time and now have my own car and enjoying every minute of it.
I would like to thank Lenny and Lisa and would recommend them to anyone.

After trying a driving school which gave me no confidence & made me feel that I was getting nowhere fast, I was given Lenny & Lisa's number by a friend who had passed through them. I was reassured that Lenny & Lisa were STARS & would make sure that I learnt how to drive plus have a giggle along the way. So I gave them a call & instantly knew I'd made the right choice as I gabbed away for ages with Lisa!
Overall what I recieved was a first class package that I don't think any other driving school could rival! Lenny was a fantastic, reliable instructor who was friendly & down to earth who made me feel at ease the minute I got into the car. Lenny took me out on lessons twice a week picking me up from school each lesson then dropping me off at home, never once where my lessons cancelled over the whole time I was learning.
Lenny is a brilliant instructor, he taught me at my own pace & is the most unbelievably patient man I have ever met. Not only is he patient but he is also calm too & believe me on a few occassions I gave him cause for concern but he calmly took a deep breath & then talked me through my mistakes!!! (Poor Lenny should be grey by now, ha ha!!)
Together Lisa & Lenny worked with me through the whole process of taking my theory & then my practical test, never once did they stop believing in me & gave me many phone calls of encouragement. Each step of the way Lisa & Lenny made sure that I felt supported & they were always at the other end of the phone if I needed them for anything.
Lisa kept telling me that my life would change the minute I passed my test & believe me it has! No longer do I have to trudge to school on two buses with bags full of books, I just get in my little car & I'm there!
I passed my test a month ago now & the day I passed was the best day ever, I was ecstatic! After failing twice through nerves it was the best feeling ever getting out of that car to tell Lenny I'd passed, he & Lisa were just as elated as I was & that is what stands LWM apart from the others. Lisa & Lenny genuinely care about you & want you to do your best, they don't tell you want you want to hear, they tell you the truth & support you throughout the whole process.
I already have recommended LWM to friends & hope that Lenny is still motoring away in a few years time because I'll be sending my daughter to him too!!!

I first had driving lessons at the age of 21 but I stopped at (unlucky) 13 lessons, lets just say I felt the instructor didn't have the patience or understanding that I felt was required. It took me another 15 years to pluck up the courage to go for it again, so at the young at heart age of 36 I took the plunge.
I had contacted a couple of driving schools before I had phoned LWM, recommended by a friend, but none of them put me at ease the way Lisa did. I really felt like it was old friends catching up with each other, a real people person.
On my first lesson I was extremely nervous and I did go to pieces a bit, but Len was calm and very understanding and I knew then that this was the driving school for me. Through Len's ease of instruction I quickly learned the basics of driving and progressed rapidly, I felt the diversity of the lessons that Len gave me added to boosting my confidence behind the wheel. If I needed to go over anything I was unsure of or wanted to move on Len would oblige. This was (for me) an excellent way to learn as it was at my own pace, I was comfortable and looked forward to every lesson. Saying that, I had given myself a time scale within which I wanted to pass my practical test, this was 12 months, I did it in 11!! A testament to Len's teaching.
LWM was very accommodating to me and was at the end of the phone if needed, Lisa would also call me to see how my lessons were going and that I was happy with the progress. This is customer care at its best. I would, and have, recommend LWM to anyone considering driving lessons, whether they are first timers or like me giving it another go.
I remember something Len had told me, that he not only wants to teach me to pass my test but to teach me to drive, and he did.
Thanks Lisa, thanks Len , you've helped me to open so many doors,

Walking down my road I would always see this little red car looking at me to start my driven lessons again. I had given up before, typical young girl any spare cash just to go out and party but as soon as I called Lisa I felt like id known her for years. She’s such a lovely woman laughing all the way through the call telling me I would do it and they had faith in passing me from the off! Then I met Lenny who is a little joker randomly telling me to pull over and then ask strangers to tell me to, PASS YOUR THEORY!! Haha Lenny new when I’d been eating sweets having my sugar rush especially with lollipops and being a girl racer. Oops! Anyway I know I’m going round in circles but my point is that they get to know you as a person and they become your friends forever. Shall I mention them wedding pictures Lenny? He he :) I would definitely recommend this Driven School! They are the nicest couple you will ever meet and I couldn’t of done it without them having faith in me and not letting me give up! They are so positive and will do absolutely anything to help you! My smile still hasn’t been wiped from my face!Thank you guys you’re the best!! Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

LWM speaks for itself - it's the best driving school I could think of. Lenny will teach you not only how to pass your test, but how to drive safely for life. Thanks to Lisa & Len learning to drive was a great experience, in a good, relaxing atmosphere, with laughing and
singing along the way. ;-) Remember this Lenny? :
'To the left, to the left' & straddle the line 'cause 'we going to rock down to Electric Avenue', so 'have a little patience' ----> we were all learners once! :)
