Here’s what a couple of our instructors have said about Go Drive:

“Go Drive are friendly, flexible and offer a level of personal service that many others simply cannot. Support is there with student supply and they are confident in their business that they don’t feel the need to tie you down with long agreements. Go drive founders, Julie and Ben, are both driven and motivated people and instructors who understand both the needs of instructors and pupils. I am proud to call them not only colleagues, but friends.” - Will

“I decided to join Go Drive because I still wanted to be independent but also to be part of a great and friendly team of like-minded people with the same goals and attitudes towards teaching as what I have.” - Sam
