Tom Starr

Driving Instructor - Harrogate & Knaresborough

Hi, I'm Tom Starr, and I believe learning to drive should be fun, relaxed, and, most importantly, a safe activity.

I have experience teaching some very anxious drivers. However, after the first couple of lessons, their anxiety around driving disappeared completely. I have lived in Harrogate/Knaresborough my entire life, so I know the area extremely well. This makes finding practice areas much easier.

As an ex-biker, you have to be on alert at all times, seeing hazards before they develop, being able to judge what another road user is about to do etc and I pass those skills down to my learners, making them much safer drivers.

I am looking forward to teaching you.

Thanks to Tom Starr i passed my driving test 1st time with only 3 minors.

Tom made me feel relaxed, and quickly helped me build my confidence up behind the wheel. Lessons were something i actually looked forward to. I would 100% recommend Tom.

Had a wonderful experience learning with Tom. He I incredibly patient and flexible, and always made me comfortable during my lessons. If it wasn't for Tom, I wouldn't have had the confidence to book (and pass!) my driving test first time with only 2 faults. He really helped ease my anxiety and get me confident on the road. 10 out of 10 I would recommend anyone to learn to drive with Tom.

Tom is perfect. He is always patient. Answering all my questions in detailed, ensuring I fully understand each concept. Whenever I fell unconfident about my driving, he helps me regain my confidence quickly. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to improve their skills.

Tom was perfect. Created an extremely safe and comfortable environment and taught real life driving as appose to just test specific. I went from being an anxious amateur to an excited qualified driver within 3 months! I couldn't recommend Tom highly enough.
