Hughes Driver Training Reviews 

Mr Adrian Essex was a best instructor what I have in my life. Thank you for your hard work on me . Passed my driving test on first time

Great experience from the team at Hughes, will take a real personal approach to your mentoring journey. They will tailor to what suits you best and help you succeed. Highly recommend and a massive thank you to Paul and Dan for guiding me every step of the way!

A good experience. The trainers were incredibly helpful. The only thing I would change is staying with the same instructor throughout the entire process, but that was out of the manager's control. But nonetheless, I got to meet everyone at Northampton. Thank you HGT and Zara, Mark, Heidi, and especially Keith and Nick.

My driving instructor made me feel comfortable from the offset, by giving the right advice, that he may have done on so many previous occasions, Keith is friendly, chatty and very knowledgeable, with his communication and instructions, Keith only raised his voice, once, as he is softly spoken, on me making the same stupid mistake, time after time,
I would highly recommend Hughes, HGV driver training, while they have such competent instructors

I would like to say that im really pleased with the experience Hughes Driver Training and especially with a wonderful instructor like Nick that just learning a little more fun then usual so big thank you to Him

Just passed my Class 1 Driving Training and Test through, Hughes Driver Training. My training hours were short due to work commitments, but I was very lucky to do my training with, Eamonn. He was a fantastic teacher! Very good at keeping things calm and straightforward. Nothing was over complicated. Thanks to him I was able to pass both my tests first time. Thanks Eamonn!

Massive thanks to Nigel at Hughes Driver Training in Thurmaston, Leicester! There's a reason so many people highly recommend the instructors here, and Nigel is a perfect example of why.
​He is an absolute professional—strict when he needs to be, but always fair. He doesn't just teach you how to get through the test; he holds you to a high standard and teaches you how to actually manage a Class 1 vehicle safely and professionally in the real world. Thanks to his discipline, thorough coaching, and great situational awareness tips, I passed my C+E practical test with complete confidence.
​If you want training that genuinely prepares you for a career on the road, look no further than Nigel and the team!

Proper Job. Thanks to Steve in Plymouth who I have to say, was absolutely fantastic.
Patient, friendly, knowledgeable and taught me in a way that made sense.
The proof is in the pudding. Passed with no minors!
I’ll be booking with Steve again. Hopefully get my wife to do her HGV.

Cheers, Jase

Big thank you to Mark Long from HDT Leeds, awesome instructor down to earth and a laugh, but tells you as it is if you have made a mistake. Passed my class 2 first time thanks to his guidance.

Had a brilliant week training with Nick, got me to pass. Great bunch of people and very informative.

Learning to drive with Adrian was thoroughly enjoyable experience. He made the whole experience very relaxing. Superb instruction throughout the week. I cannot recommend Adrian enough. It was like having a mate teaching you to drive. Thank you very much.

Fantastic instructor (Neil). Made me learn quick and refined my mistakes. Really suggest anyone to come here !

Big thanks to HDT Leeds, massive thank you to mark for training me all week, couldn’t of asked for training

I had a great experience learning to drive trucks with Neil Ball from Hughes driver training Leicester. He is an excellent instructor and teacher who made every lesson enjoyable and easy to understand. Neil was always patient, professional, and supportive, which helped build my confidence behind the wheel.
What I appreciated most was how he made the lessons fun while still ensuring I learned everything I needed to know. His clear explanations and positive attitude made a big difference, and I always looked forward to my driving lessons.
I would highly recommend Neil Ball to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, friendly, and dedicated truck driving instructor. Thank you, Neil, for making the learning experience both enjoyable and successful
And I PASSED WITH ZERO FAULTS

I did all of my C+E Training at the Northampton branch including my CPC Mod 4 and it was a great experience from top to bottom. I had most of my training with Kieth but I also had one day with Nick before my test and for my CPC Mod 4 and one day with Mark too for my reversing test, all absolutely top blokes. Full of experience to pass on and some great chat to be had at the same time whilst making the learning simple to follow and process. If you apply yourself and put 100% into what they are teaching you and also learning from the feedback they give, then you’ll have no worries at all.

I passed first time on my practical test and my CPC Mod 4 and I couldn’t have had better instructors to help me in doing that. All of the instructors at Northampton are a credit to the company and if you’re thinking about going ahead in gaining your HGV licence then I couldn’t recommend anyone more than Hughes Driver Training in Northampton.

Big thanks to Hughes Driver training Leeds helping me pass my Class 1 had the best instructor and passed first time. Instructor was spot on with everything made it very clear of what’s expected and how to achieve it. Would most definitely recommend to anyone who wants to do their Class 1 or Class 2.

The course I completed for D1 minibus was extremely helpful and allowed me to pass. My instructor, Adrian, was knowledgeable and helpful and gave me some really helpful tips to ensure I passed my test. He was clear in his instructions and when I made a mistake, explained what I should have done to ensure I knew why. Thank you all for your help and training.

My instructor was Steve - Plymouth.
Whilst I'm a confident car driver, I was unsure how I'd feel driving a Cat 2 lorry, but my experience was really positive.

Steve was patient, relaxed and had a great teaching style that put me at ease. No question was answered as though the answer was obvious, there was no condescension and I always felt comfortable. Going into my test I had confidence I could pass it and that Steve had taught me everything I needed to know.

Based on my experience, I recommend Steve at Hughes Driver Training (Plymouth).

Hughes Driver Training Durham.
Can’t recommend these guys enough. I had Eamon from the Durham site train me all week and he couldn’t have made me feel more comfortable and confident with driving for my Class 1 licence. Passed the 3 tests first time with confidence, all thanks to Eamon and the team.
