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.

I contacted Learn Driving UK for a refresher course as they have very good reviews for Harrogate. From start they were professional and responsive. As an anxious driver who hasn't driven in 7 years I requested an instructor who can help me build my confidence in driving again.
They assigned me to Tom Starr who helped enormously to not only remember how to drive but also doing it in a way that is fun and so I can look forward for my next driving session. If you are in a similar situation, I highly recommend Tom Starr as he will provide you with the right tools and guidance to overcome the fear of driving!
