Lighthouse Driving School - Folkestone

Outstanding experience learning with lighthouse!

My driving instructor was Sam. Learning to drive with Sam was a great experience from start to finish. I was able to pass both my theory and driving test on the first attempt, thanks to the excellent support and guidance I received. My driving instructor was amazing—patient, understanding, and always tailored the lessons to suit my needs, which made the whole process smooth and enjoyable. Including services from Ricky from Calmer Minds who helped me with my anxiety with my final test. I can’t thank all of you enough !!

Lighthouse driving school, what a fantastic experience I’ve had learning with you guys and having Mike Fletcher as my instructor, words cannot describe how proud I feel to have learned with you and get a first time pass. At first I was very nervous but Mike made me feel very calm and relaxed and confident behind the wheel. You all have wonderful knowledge and confidence in all your students that start learning to drive with you, you all deserve a massive respect, round of applause and a huge thank you from all the learners that have passed. I will always remember and cherish all my memories in all the lessons that I had leading up to my test day.

Honestly, I can't imagine how I would have passed without Lighthouse. They are such a wonderful, supportive school. Endless amounts of patience for nervous drivers and genuinely such a strong team of instructors. Can't thank them enough for helping me pass!

Absolutely first class! 🥇🏆 I cannot recommend Lighthouse enough - but specifically Sarah who my daughter was lucky enough to be taught by. Sarah understood completely what was needed in order to teach a nervous, neurodiverse teen - her general approach, skills, sence of humour, calmness & ability to adapt a lesson plan at a moments notice all filled my daughter with such an abundance of confidence which I'm sure will stay with her. If your reading these reviews trying to make the difficult decision in choosing a driving school/instructor, be safe in knowing that you've found a sparkly diamond. I will be forever thankful to you Sarah - you have truly given Isla so much more than just her licence 🥰.

I had a lovely time learning with Sam at Lighthouse Driving School. Very good experience, he was very helpful and supportive during all of my lessons, so thank you very much! I would 100% recommend Lighthouse to anyone looking for lessons, I loved my experience. Sam is great at helping students learn properly and making sure all steps are fully understood, I was nervous when I started driving but after a few lessons I felt very comfortable in the car with the support of Sam during my lessons too.
Thank you!

I can’t recommend Lighthouse Driving School highly enough - especially Sarah Pepler as a driving instructor. 👑

I had the pleasure of learning with Sarah, and thanks to her consistent support and expert guidance, I finally passed my driving test! As a naturally nervous driver, I really appreciated her calm, patient, and encouraging approach, which helped me build confidence behind the wheel.

Despite test delays and my own busy schedule, Sarah was always incredibly flexible and happy to work around what suited me best. I honestly can’t thank her enough for her understanding, support, and dedication throughout my learning journey.

After failing twice before, I can confidently say that choosing Lighthouse Driving School was the best decision I made. A special shoutout to Sam—he is the kindest, most patient, and nurturing instructor I’ve ever met. His dedication and support truly made all the difference, and I wouldn’t have my certificate without him! Sam always went above and beyond to ensure I felt confident and prepared. Absolutely money well spent!
