“IN Gear driving school was with out a doubt a huge reason that got me passed my test. The improvement I made from my first to last lesson was unimaginable at first, but thanks to their help I was able to get passed as a fully licensed driver. The instructors at IN Gear are like no other and I am proud to recommend them to anyone looking for driving lessons. Their passion and enthusiasm is unmatched. Thanks IN Gear”

Adam Mcnally

“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!

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.
Ben Wolfe
I did 12 lessons with Joyce as my driving instructor ,

Have Paul as a driving instructor very helpful and good to deal with funny guy aswell
Nadine Kelch
"From zero experience to almost test-ready in just 11 lessons! I can't thank my instructor Joyce enough. Being a complete beginner I was so nervous to drive. I can’t thank her enough for her patience and how lovely she was to talk to during each lesson. I was a complete beginner, I had never driven a car before, and she made me feel comfortable and confident from day one. The driving school is AMAZING , and I was able to get booked in straight away on my first lesson for all of my 12 lessons!! . Many thanks to the school and to Joyce that I was able to do this, I am beyond happy with my experience I Highly recommend!"
Ebunoluwa ologun
I had Joyce as my instructor, and she is an amazing instructor. I was quite nervous on my first day and she was helpful in calming my nerves and instructing me excellently. I will definitely recommend IN Gear DS in a heart beat.
Orla Dunne
I have nearly completed my twelve automatic lessons with Jemima at IN GEAR in Dublin 7 and I cannot recommend enough! Jemima is patient, knowledgeable, experienced and kind. I will be happy to book my pre test and feel prepared for my test when it happens.
Deirdre Lunn
Great Instructor 👍. Highly recommend
IN GEAR DRIVING EDT.MARTIN YOU WERE AMAZING TO MY GIRLS THEY PASSED WITH FLYING COLOURS.
Khuyagbaatar B
In Gear Driving School was amazing! Jemima was patient, professional, and helped me feel confident behind the wheel. Thanks to her guidance.
Katie Deegan
I did my 12 lessons with Jemima. She was very patient and knowledgeable which made me feel at ease the whole time. Jemima was so helpful and allowed me to grow my confidence by tailoring the lessons around my needs and what I was least comfortable with. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a great instructor!
Mannie Sarpong
Finished my 12 Lessons with Jemima at IN GEAR DRIVING SCHOOL. She is the best and so kind!! She is very friendly and she makes sure you are comfortable before each lesson. BEST INSTRUCTOR EVER 🤩
Isabel Lunn
Martin was absolutely nothing short of wonderful. He covered all of the 12 EDT and helped me pass with flying colours on my first test. I couldn’t recommend him enough he is an absolute star.
Isabel Fitzgerald
martin is so so passionate and kind to students. was very very patient with me and helped me so much
Ann
I had a great experience with Martin as my driving instructor, he was very patient and he helped me get over my nerves, I knew I wasn't ready after my 12 lessons so I got extra lessons off him and I passed my test first time I'm so happy.
Keelin B
I had an amazing experience learning to drive with In Gear! From my very first lesson, my instructor Paul was incredibly patient and supportive. He gave clear, helpful feedback every step of the way, and it’s obvious how passionate and dedicated he is to teaching. Paul really helped build my confidence on the road, and I always felt like I was learning in a calm, encouraging environment. I couldn’t recommend In Gear and Paul enough.
Éadaoin Kinsella
Cannot recommend Martin highly enough. Was a really enthusiastic teacher and very thorough, really helped with my confidence and getting through the test!
Eve Lunn
Learning to drive with Martin was the most enjoyable and rewarding experience I could have ever asked for. He made sure I thoroughly understood the mechanics before ever taking off, and was extremely thorough in our 12 EDT lessons, setting me up excellently for my test which I passed with flying colours first time round. But more importantly, Martin is by far the most patient and informed instructor I have ever come across, making me feel at ease to make mistakes and ask questions while always prioritising safety. I would recommend InGear, and Martin in particular, to anyone I meet looking to drive in the Greater Dublin Area.
Hannah M
Thank you to Martin for getting me through my EDT’s and giving me a first time pass!
