I would like to thank Ian for being an amazing driving instructor. Without him I would not have passed it on the second driving test with no prior driving experience in Killester.

Learning with Ian was fantastic! He stepped in at the last minute to help me pass my test and seamlessly adapted when I switched from manual to automatic! He is extremely patient and full of helpful advice, which ensured that I mastered driving skills and rules regardless of gearbox type. Aside from the lessons, Ian provided invaluable guidance and boosted my confidence before the exam.

He's fantastic at what he does, and I can't thank and recommend him enough.

Ian Daly is very punctual, observant and great at giving feedback. I passed my driving test, thanks to him as he accommodated driving sessions at the last moment before the test. He understood my skill level and bridged the gap in few sessions. I highly recommend him.

Great experience driving with Ian. I felt very comfortable driving on the very first lesson. He is calm and put me at ease right away. All the way through my EDT lessons he provided me with great guidance and all of the information that I needed to pass my test. I took all of his instructions and feedback onboard and put it into practice each day I was driving. I passed my test first time and I can honestly say it was down to the instructions and tips for the test that Ian provided to me. Thanks for all of your help Ian, I really appreciate it!

Ian is very professional and patient. He gives every details of driving test whether it’s theoretical or practical. I highly recommend him

Brilliant instructor! Needed some really last minute lessons before a test, Ian very accommodating, moved his diary around to fit me in for the test, 2x2 hours pre test lessons, I ended up using my own car for the test but Ian stayed at the Centre and waited until it was finished, amazing service, I passed with only two faults and definitely couldn’t have done it without his knowledge and patience! Would recommend him to anyone, thanks Ian!

Thank you, Ian. You were great! Great advice on things that I was not doing it right. Your help was much appreciated. Highly recommended. Safe journeys!

I recently had an opportunity of learning to drive under the expert guidance of Ian (In Gear), and I cannot express enough gratitude for the invaluable lessons and support he provided. From the moment I stepped into the driver's seat, Ian's calm demeanor and extensive knowledge immediately put me at ease. One of the standout qualities of Ian is his unwavering patience. Learning to drive can be a nerve-wracking experience, but Ian's calm and composed approach made every lesson enjoyable. He took the time to explain each concept thoroughly, ensuring I not only understood the technicalities but also felt confident in my abilities. Moreover, Ian tailored each lesson to address my specific strengths and areas that needed improvement. His personalized approach fostered a sense of trust and camaraderie, making the learning process feel more like a collaborative effort than a mere instructional session. He consistently provided constructive feedback, highlighting my progress and encouraging me to overcome challenges. What truly sets Ian apart is his genuine passion for teaching and commitment to ensuring his students become safe and responsible drivers. He went above and beyond, incorporating real-world scenarios and practical tips that extended beyond the requirements of the driving test. This holistic approach not only prepared me for the exam but also equipped me with the skills necessary for a lifetime of safe driving. Thanks to Ian guidance, I successfully passed my driving test with flying colors. I am now not just a licensed driver, but a confident and conscientious one, all thanks to the exceptional mentorship of Ian. I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone in search of a driving instructor who not only teaches the rules of the road but instills the confidence and knowledge needed to navigate them with ease.

Having just passed my test it's amazing to think back at how long I put off learning to drive and how nervous I was to start, now I really enjoy driving and so glad to have the freedom. Ian was really calm, clear and always accommodating. His support doesn't end at the end of the lesson; he's always helpful and quick to reply to random questions sent his way, even the night before the test. Would definitely recommend!

Ian is a excellent and very experienced instructor. I came to Ian after a negative experience with another instructor. He created a very positive learning atmosphere for me, giving me the confidence to go on and pass my test. I now have the skills, ability and confidence to drive safely on my own. I would highly recommend Ian to anyone.

Ian is an excellent instructor, every lesson I took with him was extremely helpful. He was very patient and explained everything very clearly. I can not recommend Ian enough. Thank you for helping me pass my test!

Passed first time in an automatic thanks to Ian. He got my confidence back up and made me a much better and more relaxed driver which made passing the test a lot easier. 5 stars ⭐️

Ian is a great instructor! I did all my 12 EDT lessons with him, and couldn’t recommend him more and passed my first time round! He is very patient and professional, also making you at ease during all lessons, and also confident going into your test. Again couldn’t recommend him more.

I took my EDT lessons with Ian, and passed the test in my first attempt. Ian is very patient, and thorough with his lessons; and gave me a lot of advice on various scenarios I could encounter on the road, and particularly tricky roads/places around Raheny where the driving test could take me. He also gave me a pre-test and corrected my mistakes, which helped a lot in the test. Will recommend Ian's driving lessons for anyone looking to get a license. Thanks Ian!
