“I passed my driving test today all thanks to IN Gear I had previously done lessons with another instructor and had a very bad experience. I did another 12 lessons with IN Gear and from the very first one the difference in the lessons was unbelievable. They are brilliant Instructors and are so passionate about what they do. IN Gear built up my confidence and helped me get rid of the bad habits I had. And had me laughing throughout the lessons and I thoroughly enjoyed myself while still learning how to drive properly. I would 100% recommend IN Gear to anyone wanting to pass their driving test.”

Erica Mchugh

Being someone who suffers with anxiety issues, driving seemed so daunting to me. IN Gear driving school has helped me hugely , giving me the confidence I needed to drive and to pass my test. I would recommend IN Gear to anyone and especially those that are extra nervous like myself. I can now say that I actually enjoy driving and it was a privilege to learn from such a passionate and encouraging instructor.

I would highly recommend IN Gear as I have no doubt that they played a critical role in successfully gaining my driver’s licence. I found the IN Gear driving instructors to be very professional and knowledgeable and they supplied me with very useful tips. With IN Gear you are in safe hands and they have a phenomenal pass rate!

Joe was a great help. I completed my 12 lessons with another company and still wasnt confident driving, after one lesson with Joe in Carlow my driving improved hugely, he could tell me exactly what i was doing wrong and what to focus on! Couldnt reccomed them enough!
John Cleeven Garcia
I pass my driving test today. I would like to show my appreciation and heartfelt gratitude to my driving instructor Vicky. I took all my 12 lessons from her. She made sure that I learned the basics of driving safely, Best practice in driving, and encourage me to practice in between lessons. I highly recommend her especially if you will be doing your exam in Finglas.
Ciaran Mullen
Norah was incredible as a driving instructor. I had stopped driving for a while after failing my test twice, but Norah helped me get back in to the swing of things. She helped me break my bad habits and improve my weak spots, all whilst being a very calm, friendly and encouraging instructor. I couldn’t have passed my test on the third go without Norah’s help, I can’t recommend her enough.
Orla Butler
I hadn't driven in over 10 years & was nervous to get back on the road, but Dan made it so easy & and made me feel really at ease. Thanks to him I feel confident to start driving again, & would recommend both Dan & In Gear driving school to everyone.
MARIAMMA SAMUEL
I am very thankful to InGear Driving School. I was extremely nervous and fearful about driving, but Jemmiah helped me gain confidence and learn step by step. She was patient, supportive, and made the whole learning process so much easier for me. Thanks to her guidance, I now feel much more comfortable behind the wheel. Highly recommend!

Just passed my driving test and I couldn’t be happier! Huge thanks to James for the guidance, patience, and support throughout. You made learning to drive much less stressful and actually enjoyable. Couldn’t have done it without you!
Carlos Castellon
I had an incredible experience in all my classes. Valuable insights in all aspects from the instructor who made excellent and useful recommendations during the sessions. Definitely a great driving school.
Luke downey
Great service. Passed my test first times with James as my instructor with 0 marks. He really helped me along my journey. Highly recommend
Shannon
Couldn’t recommend In Gear enough! James was my instructor and was so informative, patient and encouraging! He is very passionate about people doing well and passing. I passed on my second attempt, with only driving in James’ car as I didn't have my own. Thank you James!!
Péter Gombos
I could write an essay how worthy every euro spent was, James is a great instructor. From start to geting my licence, he helped me with everything. I could not recommend them enough.
Yunis Ibrahim
Was doing my driving with One and only Jimmy!! He was so patient with me however much mistakes, i made. I passed my driving test on Wednesday morning.. Happy to pass on the 2nd try!!
Shout out to Jimmy
Laura Saunders
If you're looking for a driving instructor who truly goes above and beyond, this is a reference for John Wickham—and I can't recommend him highly enough.

I passed my driving test on the first try, and it's all thanks to John's excellent teaching. I had two previous instructors before him, and John was miles ahead of them in every way. He explains everything in great detail and always makes sure you fully understand what you're doing and why. What really sets him apart is how he comes up with clever ways to help you remember things—whether it's through little memory tricks or helpful drawings.

John really takes the time to help you understand the rules of the road and each manoeuvre, not just memorise them. That made a huge difference for me, because I felt confident knowing exactly why I was doing something, not just how.

The pre-tests were amazing and really helped me focus on what I needed to practice. They gave me the confidence to go into the test feeling fully prepared and calm.

He also has a really calm and reassuring way about him, which makes such a difference when you’re nervous. He knows exactly how to put you at ease and build your confidence behind the wheel.

John is outstanding at his job, and if you're lucky enough to get him as your instructor, I can wholeheartedly say you are in amazing hands. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone learning to drive!
Emma Daly
Just passed my test first time with Jemima! Would highly recommend, so kind and helpful. Amazing driving instructor!
Milly Kennedy
Adam was my driving instructor, can’t recommend him enough! He was very patient and I passed my test with flying colors! Thank you for all your help 🙏
adrienne mooney
Norah is an amazing instructor and helped me pass my test first time around. She was calm, encouraging and gave a positive outlook after each lesson. She was always on time and made certain I had all the lessons I needed coming up to the test. I would highly recommend for a successful outcome!
Alex Coghlan
John was a great teacher and so helpful in the lead up to my test with the pre-test lesson. His advice helped me so much to be ready for the test. Would definitely recommend!
Sumit Botre
"Massive thanks to Jerry and Gear Driving School for the amazing lessons! Passed my driving test on the first attempt, all thanks to your expert guidance and support!"

Kevin Mullaney
I have recently passed my driving test after taking lessons with InGear. I had tried several instructors but I found Norah from InGear to give the best fit. She is very patient but also clear about where and how I needed to improve. I would highly recommend her and others from InGear for anyone seeking to do their license
James Galvin
Passed my driving test yesterday thanks to my brilliant instructor - Norah. She always gave great advice and looked after me coming up to my test. Would highly recommend.
Liam O'Malley
I had been driving for two years and failed a few times before deciding to make the leap to try a new instructor. Norah was amazing and I passed my driving test this time around.
alannah Murphy
I passed my test first time with Nora and also done my test in her car and did a pretest with her before my test, she made me feel really confident and calmed me down so much and explained everything so well during all my lessons. Would 100% recommend going to her for lessons.
Amy C
Thanks so much to Vicki for her patience, expertise and encouragement. I passed my test first time and felt really confident going into it! Best instructor I've driven with!!
Danny Kearney
I can't speak highly enough of Gerry and thoroughly recommend him! He is meticulous is his details and has an eagle eye for spotting any minor fault that I incurred. I put off taking lessons for years but after completing my EDT with Gerry, I am now confident of passing my test first time!
Elise Ashby
Really recommend I failed 3 times in finglas test centre before I did a pretest with Ed from IN GEAR and passed, his knowledge and experience was super helpful explained everything I did wrong in great detail and was able to pass successfully 😄
JUGGY SINGH
I was very confused as to which driving school I need to choose to do my 12 lessons and pass my test. I came across In Gear driving school after my friend had suggested me their name and I was not let down by them. I was fortunate enough to get Sean as my driving instructor and I was amazed to see how good he is. He just doesn't tell you what to do, he gives you a reason why it needs to be done and things which will happen if we don't do it. I can't recommend him enough.
Billy Irwin
Just passed my driving test on my second attempt with my instructor Ian Daly from In gear. Ian is a great instructor that I’d highly recommend to any new learners.
Irma Ruzickaja
John is an amazing driving instructor!
He helped me feel confident and not afraid during my lessons. He’s calm, patient, and really knows how to teach. I highly recommend him — he’ll make sure you do your best every step of the way. Thank you so much, John!
Olivia Fearon
I’ve just finished my automatic lessons with Jemima and I am delighted with my experience. I was a nervous driver after an off putting first experience and Jemima gave me so much confidence in myself. She was a really calm presence in the car and I have come so far from where I started. She was so easy to chat to and explained everything so well. I would recommend Jemima to anyone looking for automatic lessons!
Adam O'Carroll
Mark is an excellent driving instructor who explained the basics of driving in a straightforward manner.

He is the sole reason that I passed my driving test first time without any issues. I would recommend In Gear to anyone who is serious about passing their driving test.

Mark covers the Kildare region and I would highly recommend personally requesting to have him as your instructor!
Not-morgendorffer
Highly recommend the In Gear driving school! I got my learner's permit last year and had to get the 12 hours EDT. I chose In Gear thanks to Dublin reddit folks recommending them as very test-focused and no-nonsense. I got exactly that. My instructor, Jimmy, was very patient (it was my first experience driving on the other side of the road), diligent and to the point. Now I just need to practice some more in my own car before the final exam, which Jimmy also made easy for me, since he sent me a lot of pdf material and personalized tips after our lessons were done, so I don't forget what he taught me. Fingers crossed I pass on the first try!
Aoife Polion
John was an amazing instructor, great at explaining the technical aspects of driving. 100% recommend
João Dutra
I had my lessons with Paul. He is the most energetic person I’ve ever met, and he’s passionate about teaching new drivers. You can tell when someone is great at what they do, and Paul is a great instructor. I’m more than happy to recommend IN GEAR for driving lessons.
Jawad Maqsood
I had classes with Jamima. Very professional, gives every small detail and explain it calmly
Rachel Bunce
I did my driving lessons with Paul, and could not recommend in gear and Paul himself more if you are thinking of doing driving lessons. He was so accommodating, patient and helpful throughout the whole process. I would recommend in gear to anyone looking to get driving!
Dav Nic
I had an amazing experience with my driving instructor (Jemima Ampong). She was incredibly patient and supportive throughout the entire learning process. From our very first lesson, she made me feel at ease, which helped build my confidence behind the wheel. She provided clear instructions and constructive feedback, allowing me to improve my skills quickly. Her dedication to ensuring I understood each aspect of driving was evident, and I truly appreciate the time she took to answer all my questions. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a fantastic instructor.
Juan Corral
Amazing experience and outstanding instructor. Thank you so much John!
Aishling Hassett
Great experience learning from John at InGear, helped hugely with polishing up for the test and becoming a comfortable and confident driver
Aoife Rooney
I booked a 2 hour pre test with In Gear the day before my test. I was extremely nervous about the test as I had previously failed twice. My instructor Ed had a great and relaxed approach when guiding me through the mistakes I was making. I remembered all of this and it was the reason I passed my test . Thanks so much to Ed and In Gear for helping me pass finally!
Shea Mahady
I had taken my test twice with another company and unfortunately failed both times. Then I switched to In Gear and started lessons with Jackie Davis. Her knowledge, patience, and dedication made all the difference — thanks to her, I passed and now have my full licence! I couldn’t recommend Jackie Davis and in gear more highly.
James Morris
Just passed my driving test first time after completing my course of lessons with John Wickham in Malahide. He is an exceptional instructor who clearly cares about his job and his students. John is excellent at helping you understand what you should be doing on the road and finds innovative ways of helping you to drive. He takes time to really explain manouevers and rules of the road which really helps you in practice. I had 3 different driving instructors and John was by far the best! Highly recommended!!!!
Anoop Paul
Good experience, Perfect Training
Rebecca Keenan
I had a fantastic experience learning to drive with Jemima. She was incredibly patient, friendly, and always reassuring, which made a big difference in helping me feel comfortable and confident behind the wheel. Her calm and supportive approach made learning to drive an enjoyable and stress-free experience. I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great driving instructor!
Vhon Catalan
Kris is a great instructor. I learned a lot from him in just our first session. Looking forward for the next one and to pass my test
Venkatesh saggam
I had an incredible experience with IN GEAR DRIVING SCHOOL! My instructor, Paul, is truly passionate about teaching and it shows in every lesson. He's enthusiastic, super patient, and never gives up on his students. Even when I found certain things challenging, Paul stayed supportive and always encouraged me to keep going. You can tell he genuinely cares about helping you become a confident and safe driver. Thanks to Paul, I feel 100% more comfortable behind the wheel. I highly recommend IN GEAR DRIVING SCHOOL to anyone looking for a top-notch instructor!
Colm Crehan
Very good driving instructor who is very passionate about his job !
Erica Masterson
After having a really poor experience for my 12 EDT lessons with another driving school and taking a break for a year, I was very nervous to begin driving lessons again. Jemima was very patient and kind and quickly built up my confidence driving. After 2 lessons with Jemima I felt my ability to drive and confidence were the highest they had been since starting. I would highly recommend Jemima. Thank you so much.
Tamires Rocha
I already have experience in driving in my country, but needed to do the EDT.
I had classes with Paul, an excellent instructor! Very friendly and makes sure that the classes are light and fun! I feel totally ready for my practical test, Paul explained in detail from the first class the points necessary to be successful!
100% recommended!
Rahan Uddin
Outstanding Driving Instructor – Highly Recommended Neil Murphy.
Learning to drive with Neil Murphy was an absolute game-changer. From the very first lesson, Neil was calm, patient, and incredibly knowledgeable. He has a fantastic way of explaining things that makes even the most complex maneuvers feel simple and achievable. His professionalism, reliability, and positive attitude created a supportive learning environment that truly boosted my confidence behind the wheel. What sets Neil apart is his genuine dedication to his students’ success. He tailors each lesson to your individual pace and needs, always offering clear feedback and encouragement. Thanks to his expert guidance, I not only passed my test, but I also feel like a safe and capable driver for life.
Again Thank you very much.
