Would always recommend the alert school of motoring ahead of any other driving instructors out there, Mark helped endlessly with any kind of nerves leading up to the test and helped keep me calm and ready for my test!!

Lisa Walker

I can highly recommend Alert School of Motoring to learn to drive.
I was a nervous driver and I had lots of fears when I first started to drive with Mark. He remained professional, reassured me and pushed me to believe in myself even when I was at my worst and that many times I wanted to quit from my nerves but he stayed in a calm manner and would talk to me to discuss those fears and ways to help me.
The vehicle was cleaned to high standards during this pandemic and along with instructor and pupil wearing facemasks whilst on lessons for safety.
I passed my test on the 29th October first time and will be forever grateful and now have a more positive approach to driving and freedom that I’ve always wanted. Thankyou Mark!

Would definitely recommend mark is a very good instructor as well as patient, not only does he teach you how to pass the test but also how to drive comfortably and confidently

Owen Bloor

Mark helped me every step of the way on the lead up to my test, from the very first lesson to the last he was very patient, he didn’t try to rush me but pushed me to always do my best and to be at my best at all times. Although COVID got in the way of my test, he helped me get back into my lessons quickly and got me test ready, he pushed me and put so much time and effort in to help me be at my best ready for my test and although I had a dodgy lesson just before test, he helped me to believe in my ability and have confidence that I could do it and to come back stronger and better. With Mark’s help, time and patience I passed my test first time with only three minors, I’ve now been driving over a month, thank you Mark for all you help in getting me on the road and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to start driving wether it be a child, sibling, parent, friend or other family member.

Liam Irvine

Would recommend highly, gave me a lot of confidence when driving which helped me pass my driving test first time. The only bad thing is that he supports West Ham

Charlie Butcher

There is no one else I’d rather learn to drive with other than Mark. Top bloke and incredibly patient, he had me passed first time, he is a great laugh but a very honest and straight talking person, worth every penny. Go to Alert school of motoring, don’t over think it.

Shannon Beers

Brilliant instructor! helped me to pass first time! very helpful and couldn’t have passed without his knowledge!

Maddie Anne Wyles

Mark is an amazing driving instructor! ❤️ I had my test come through just 8 days ago, after not driving for 2 months due to Covid 19.
Today I passed my test, First time with just 2 minors! 🚙 would highly recommend doing your lessons with mark, thank you again mark! You have changed my life🚗❤️

Mark from Alert School of Motoring is outstanding. He has an excellent teaching style and made me feel very comfortable behind the wheel of the car. He had me test ready in the timeframe I was hoping for and I could not recommend him enough!

Dan Joseph

I highly recommend Alert School of Motoring. if you’re thinking of learning to drive and definitely worth the possible wait. Mark is a very approachable guy who you can have a good laugh and a chat too but also serious when needed! Not only does he teach you how to drive on your test, Mark gives an easy understanding on day to day driving! I’ve personally struggled to get the job done with previous instructors, Mark has managed to get the job and test done 1st time round! 5 stars to this guy!

So, where do I start? A year ago my baby girl reluctantly started her driving lessons. She was nervous to say the least! I contacted a few driving schools and went with Alert School of Motoring. He showed patience and encouragement as well as empathy towards Crystal who was scared stiff of driving “out on the big road”. His attitude and experience with young drivers gave her the confidence she needed to complete this journey. And today she did just that. Completed that journey with a pass at first attempt. I would recommend Mark Kingsnorth without a doubt. Thank you so much for all you’ve done over the last year and may you continue to help and keep others safe on the road! Consider this another job well done!! Thanks again Mark, it’s gonna cost us a few quid now!!

Frankie Roberts

Would highly recommend Alert, made the experience very easy for me and gave me great confidence on the road.

Bethany-Rose Ford

Passed first time! I couldn’t recommend Mark enough. As someone who deals with anxiety, my nerves have been through the roof. Mark has been so patient and has taken the time to talk and work through my anxieties with me. The wait is completely worth it, its been one of the best experiences of my life. Thank you so much:)

Courtney Marie Newton

I would recommend Mark as a driving instructor, he gave me a lot of confidence with my driving and helped me believe that I could pass

Jon Edwards

Mark is a fantastic driving instructor. He made me believe in myself. I am so happy that I passed! Would 100% recommend. He is the best possible person for the job

Patricia Dalton

what can i say other than mark is brilliant at what he does. he goes above and beyond every time and no two lessons are the same. ive learnt so much since driving with mark and he’s built my confidence up so much from when i first started driving with him. I’m so glad he had the time to teach me everything i know when it comes to driving, and another first time pass its a huge achievement for pupils to pass their tests but its also a huge achievement for mark because it means his doing his job extremely well. thank you for everything couldnt have done it without you! 👍👍

Calam Saunders

Great instructor friendly patient and a great laugh might have to wait but well worth the wait would 100% recommend. Thanks for everything Mark

Joe Cordwell

Would highly recommend using Mark as an instructor, with a lot of patience and perseverance to help you improve your driving ability and confidence on the road.
Mark challenges you with difficult lessons, which he knows you’ll be able to get through, which helps you progress in your skill and gain knowledge of how to adapt to a range of scenarios. The high standard of teaching speaks for itself, teaching you how to drive safely and confidently.

5⭐️, best instructor you could go with, highly recommend

Brook Davey

I would highly recommend Mark as an instructor, he really helped me with my nerves and gave me confidence to get my test done after nearly 3 years of learning, anyone looking for lessons give mark a message!
