Student Success Stories
Hear What My Graduates Have to Say
I took driving lessons with Con from June 2021 to February 2023. Con gives his learners excellent attention, and focuses expertly on key learning points during each lesson. I always felt that I had improved an aspect of my driving with every lesson with Con. He has very high standards, and coaches you to develop your driving skills and confidence to the best level achievable. He not only focuses on key skills for the driving test, but skills which will make you a safe driver in the future. The value for money was really good, and it was well worth every penny. I sat my driving test in February 2023, and comfortably passed on my first attempt with only one grade 2 fault (a total of 8 allowed). I would highly recommend Con to anyone who is starting out driving, or would like some refresher lessons to develop their overall driving skill. He is a 5/5 driving instructor." Thanks again for everything Con, Ross O'Carroll (Medical Doctor) I'll see you for some motorway lessons in the future! 01 - 06
Hi Con, I have completed my 12 EDT classes in Dublin and then had 4 driving tests, 1 in Dublin and 3 in Naaş. I failed all of them with lots of weak areas. I then tried with one of the driving schools in Naaş as well but no luck. I was fortunate to hear about Con and contacted him for training, and that turned out to be my best decision. I passed my driving test on my next attempt with only one grade 2 fault and also received good feedback from the driving tester. Con is very accommodating and understanding person. From day 1, he personally looked into the weak areas of my driving and also shared his valuable inputs and notes with me. Considering my past experiences with other instructors, this was completely different and positive for me. I highly recommend Con for all your driving training needs and you will not regret it for sure. Thank you Con for all the training tips and helping me pass my test. 02 - 06
I commenced EDT Lessons with Con Kelly on 12/8/21. I completed all 12 EDT’s with him. I found Con to be very helpful and easy to understand. He explained everything very clearly and clarified anything I was unsure of. I was very impressed at Con’s ability to identify my weaknesses and his ability to help me improve as I needed. Con was able to answer any question I had with regard to driving or the test itself. I also completed an additional 4 pre-test lessons with Con. I passed a mock driving test on my first attempt with Con on 28/2/22, this set me up for my RSA driving test which I passed first attempt on 10/3/22. Overall, it took me 7 months to complete all my training and become a fully-qualified driver. I would highly and strongly recommend Con to any of my friends, colleagues of family as he was a pleasure to have as my driving instructor. 03 - 06
A note of thanks, My daughter, Lily, completed her 12 EDT lessons mixed with 5 Advanced Control Lessons with Con. Lily passed her driving test in Naas on 24/9/19 on her first attempt without incurring any driving faults: for which she received a note of congratulations from the Road Safety Authority on her achievement. She is a competent and confident driver who drives with care and respect for other road users. 04 - 06
I started my 12 EDT lessons with Con on 20/9/2017. From the start Con’s enthusiasm and passion for driving was obvious to me. His encouragement in every lesson boosted not only my confidence but my driving ability. I also completed 5 pre-test lessons with Con, 6 months after commencing with Con I passed my driving test at my first attempt on the 6/4/2018 with only two Grade 2 faults on my Test Report. On the day of my test my driving examiner was full of praise for my observations, reactions to hazards and my general ability to drive safely. I was very satisfied with the high standard of driver training I received from Con, and I would recommend him to anybody who is looking to learn how to drive. I intend to take a motorway lesson soon with Con. 05 - 06
I received 6 pre-test driving lessons from Con Kelly. My driving tuition was taken in the Naas area. I took my driving test in Ennis, County Clare on the 18th October 2010 and passed first time. The examiner commented on the fact that I had excelled in all areas of the driving test. I would highly recommend Con to anyone for driving lessons. He is dedicated and very professional in his field of work. I found my lessons with Con very beneficial, clear and concise. I would not have excelled on my driving test without the instruction from Con. 06 - 06
