About Us
Hi. My name is Steve. I’m a DVSA registered Approved Driver Trainer and member of the Institute of Advanced Motorists. Prior to qualifying as a driver trainer, I spent many years as an Advanced Police Driver with the Metropolitan Police.
I was trained at the world-famous Hendon Police Driving School in all aspects of advanced driving, including Pursuit Management, in conjunction with the College of Policing National Decision Model. I experienced challenging and demanding driving situations, conditions and environments and all too often witnessed and dealt with the consequences of poor, inconsiderate and dangerous driving. This gives me a unique insight into the behaviours of other drivers and road conditions.
Why learn with us?
I was taught the Police system of car control, Roadcraft, which concentrates on awareness, anticipation and forward planning, but above all, safety. I strive to instil the principle of this method into the training I deliver and very much adhere to and believe in the DVSA directive of ‘Safer Driving For Life’, which I very much impress on my students.
Some types of drivers, and in particular inexperienced ones, are more likely than others to be involved in collisions, and whilst there’s no replacement for experience, I’ll ensure that in the time you train with me, I’ll expose you to as many different types of road environments and situations as possible including faster roads, country lanes and busy town centres.
Lessons
All of my training sessions are for a minimum of 1 hour, most of which you will spend driving. My reputation is the key to the success of my business. If your time spent with me training is an enjoyable one, then you’ll go on to introduce and recommend me to others looking to start learning to drive.
Personalised Learning
Your progress will be monitored and recorded, and every session will be adapted for you. After all, we’re all individuals, none of us is the same, and we all have our own preferred ways and pace of learning.
Encouragement
I want your training sessions to be an enjoyable experience and one you’ll share with others. So there’ll be no pressure, though I will give you plenty of encouragement.
Build Confidence
I’ll help you recognise your strengths and build your confidence but also understand your limitations and that of the vehicle you’re driving, all at a pace set by you.

Testimonials
We would highly recommend Steve at GXM. He immediately put my daughter at ease, and she quickly became a calm, confident driver. He is really responsive on text, keeping me up to date about lesson times and providing feedback regarding how she was getting on. We are delighted that she has now passed and we will be asking Steve to teach our other two daughters when their turn comes! Thank you Steve.
