I passed my test with Nick (Nicholas Driving Academy) too. I'd done lessons on and off over the years but really wanted to commit to getting it done this time. I wasn't a total beginner but I was very rusty when we started! Nick was really helpful, relaxed and reliable. I learned an awful lot over a few months and felt really ready for my test. I passed in September '17 and have been back a while ago for a refresher and a catch up! Highly recommended if you want a great, knowledgeable instructor in the SE22 area.
