“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!

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.

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.

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!
Caera Welsh
I passed first time with Mark as my instructor!
He is a super instructor, never any nonsense and was flexible and easy with times when it came to lessons! He’s understanding and such a good teacher!
Andrew Finney
I had John as my driving instructor and it was the best decision I've made. Definitely gave me the confidence to get behind the wheel of the car and to pass my driving test at the 1st time of asking. Would highly recommend.
AJ
Vicki is an amazing instructor! I managed to pass after undergoing a lesson and pre-test with her
Vivek Murarka
Had an amazing experience with In Gear Driving School. Special thanks to Catherine for explaining all the rules very calmly and building that confidence in me to drive.
She is a fantastic and very professional instructor and I’m optimistic that her knowledge would help me crack my test.
Úna whelan
Vicki is fantastic. I was so nervous to start driving and she was so patient and gave such straightforward, calm guidance, she really made the whole experience fun.
c.a05
Done some pre test lessons with instructor James. He was brilliant, very patient and was always a helping hand. Passed my test with his help. I would highly recommend In Gear
Emma Singleton
I cannot recommend James highly enough. I had previously failed 2 tests already with other instructors and my confidence was really at an all time low when we started. James took the time to get to know me, took a genuine interest in my progress and was supportive and encouraging the entire time. He is patient, friendly, motivating and extremely knowledgeable.
Thank you James, I couldn't have done it without you!!
Sachin Langute
I had an amazing experience with IN Gear Driving School! Starting as a complete beginner, I was nervous about learning to drive, but Mark's patience and expert guidance made all the difference. In just 8 months, I went from zero experience to passing my driving test on the first attempt! The lessons were thorough, enjoyable, and tailored to build my confidence. I highly recommend IN Gear to anyone looking for professional and supportive driving instruction. Thank you, Mark, for helping me achieve this milestone!
Johnny Cosmic
I had Ian and he is incredibly great at his teaching! I passed first time in Killester
Michelle Kcomt
I had John as my instructor and thanks to him, I passed the driving test on my first go! He was so lovely and patient, plus the atmosphere in the car was always positive which made such a huge difference to my driving as I always felt very comfortable. I did three 2 hour pretests with John which I think is what helped me pass on my first go. By the time the test came, I was fully prepared and don't think that would've been the case without those pretests. I would recommend In Gear Driving School and John in a heartbeat!
Eamonn Sharpson
The relief I felt after finally passing. Shoutout to my instructor Catherine who’s excellent help got me over the finish line.
AKHIL TOM
I have successfully obtained my driving license under the guidance of instructor Catherine Heeney.

Heartfelt thanks to InGear Driving School for your support!
Diarmaid 04
I passed my test with John and found it beneficial to do pre test lessons before so that I knew the layout of the test before the day.
Melissa cowley
Had a pre test/lesson with Gerry in the auto he's absolutely amazing if you've any bad habits he will snap them out of you that day would highly recommend in all the lessons I've had he's by far the best went and passed my test 2nd time round!
Aamir Banderker
I did my classes and car hire with Gerry. Gerry is an amazing instructor. He helped me correct my every small mistake, many of which I was never of before! He helped me excel on reversing around the corner as that was one of my biggest weak point. He is quite a gentleman and a soft spoken person. He puts in his best efforts to ensure his students pass the test as well develop good and safe driving skills. He also was quite understanding and flexible to move our appointment dates based on my schedule. I would highly recommend taking classes with Gerry!
Laura McConnell
Delighted to have passed my test! My driving instructor was John, from the get go he made me feel at ease. He has some excellent teaching methods, is really knowledgeable and instilled in me the importance of safety and driving carefully on the road which helped build up my confidence over time.
After my lessons I did a couple pre tests and the combination of the practice and the pre tests really helped me feel confident and self assured on the road. Can't recommend them enough. Thanks a mill John!
Brenda Adams
Such a fantastic experience. My driving instructor was Paul and from day 1 he made me feel at ease. Any question was welcomed. Explained everything so simply. Overall great experience
