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.”

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.

Adam Cullen
Did my EDTs with Gerry, he was brilliant. He educated, corrected and talked in an encouraging way always. He brought me from a driver with zero experience on the road at all, to the driver I was today when I passed my driving test. I managed to pass with 0 faults and I can confidently say that Gerry was a huge factor in that, thanks to him for everything.
Atinderpal Singh
I passed my driving test with Gerry and had a great experience throughout my lessons. Gerry is professional, patient, and really detailed in his teaching. He gave clear feedback and created a relaxed environment that made learning so much easier. Thanks to his guidance, I felt confident going into the test and passed. Highly recommend him!
Nora Doyle
After trying with 3 different driving schools I was really losing hope on ever getting on the road, then I went to In gear, Dan was such a great instructor, I felt he put me and my success first, was reliable, knowledgeable and kind in his feedback, I recommend this driving school after passing my test today first time in Tallaght!
Kristaps Upis
Passed my test first time in Raheny this morning thanks to James. Great instructor, would recommend to anyone trying to pass their test!

🚙 Thanks to Norah for all the support and help in my driving lessons
Hannah Furlong
I had a fantastic experience with In Gear Driving School! After completing my 12 EDT lessons elsewhere, I reached out to Gerry for some extra lessons.
Gerry was amazing - he helped boost my confidence and guided me through the areas I was unsure about. Thanks to his support and fantastic advice, I’m delighted to say I passed my driving test on my first attempt!
I can’t recommend Gerry highly enough. Thanks for everything.
Pavana Chesty
Ian was a fantastic instructor . Very patient, clear, and supportive. Highly recommend!
samuel Feely
I went to Gerry in June, having never driven before and wanting to pass my test ASAP. I sat my test in October and passed it first time with just one Mark. This was only possible with Gerry’s help. His knack for putting you at ease and building your confidence in your own abilities is a testament to him as a person and his way of pushing you to your limits and making you comfortable with the perceived difficult aspects of driving meant that when the test came around it felt completely doable. I couldn’t recommend Gerry enough if I wrote a 2000 word essay but safe to say if you need a good instructor and a gent of a fella, Gerry’s the man for it.
Tara
Just passed in Tallaght thanks to Dan at In Gear. He was super professional, always on time and gave helpful feedback and support. Couldn't recommend them enough
Caitriona Carton
InGear are without a doubt the best Driving School around. Very professional service, there really is no need to look anywhere else for your driving lessons. Highly recommend
D Devane
I had an exceptional experience with John Wickham as my driving instructor. His patience, professionalism, and expertise made learning to drive a truly enjoyable and positive experience. He provided clear instructions and helpful feedback, which boosted my confidence behind the wheel. I highly recommend John to anyone looking to learn how to drive safely and confidently. John, thanks so much for your guidance and support!
Maggie B
Gerry is the best instructor in Dublin 15, his knowledge, passion and experience is next level and he is the only reason I passed today! He's supportive, patient and goes above and beyond to ensure you feel confident on the road. I improved so so much since starting lessons with him and felt prepared for the test despite battling nerves on the day!
Ryan Joseph
A special thank you to Mark and In Gear Driving School for helping me pass my driving test first try!

Mark is an incredible instructor - I couldn't have done it without him 👏. I can't thank him enough for his support, guidance and undeniable passion for teaching since day one.

I would highly recommend Mark as an instructor throughout the learner journey. From the first lesson to the pre-test, he is the man!
Ciara Mc
I had driving lessons with Vicki and a pre test she was great and gave me great guidance on what to work on the week before my test and I passed my full test first time

Thanks for your patience Vicki
J L
I started learning to drive about 3 years ago and had lessons with 4 different instructors. They all had good driving skills, but not all of them knew how to teach. Gerry is the one who really knows how to guide you and help you work on your weak points. He is patient and approachable. When I did my driving test, I was very nervous and my mind went blank, but everything Gerry taught me had already become muscle memory, which helped me pass on my first try. I actually found him through a random Google search, and I feel super lucky that he became my instructor. I’ll always remember what he taught me and do my best to be a responsible driver. I’d definitely recommend Gerry to anyone looking for lessons in North Dublin.
Graze Castillo

Orla Ratty
Passed my test with In Gear this morning! Sean was such a great instructor, kept my nerves away and I couldn’t have done it without him!
Bill French
Gerry is without a doubt the best instructor I’ve ever had and I’ve had 3
He has a calming personality and makes you believe you can do it from day one. Everything he teaches you will make you a safe driver and make you more than capable of passing your test.

I highly recommend Gerry if you’re looking to pass your driving test I couldn’t have done it without him.

Julius Erik Luzon
I recently passed my driving test, and my pre-test lesson with Petra Duzdova played a big role. Her teaching style is focused yet light and refreshing, which instantly put me at ease. She explains things clearly, gives practical guidance, and knows how to remove the nerves before the test. I left the lesson feeling confident and well-prepared. I’d highly recommend Petra to anyone getting ready for their driving test. 👍
Facundo Grossi Madcur

Eve Sheedy
Big thank you to Catherine from In Gear who helped me pass my test first time in Killester. She was patient, kind and helped me with good explanations while driving.
Sean McGirr
I passed my Driving Test thanks to In Gear and had a wonderful instructor in John. Every lesson I felt that I made a lot of progress and felt positively with clear guidance on what I needed to work on in between lessons. John's reminders to breathe (in multiple languages) helped me through the test!
Faris Haju
I recently completed my 6 reduced EDT lessons with In-Gear Motor Training School, and my instructor was Aaron. He is an excellent instructor—very professional, patient, and easy to get along with.

The whole process was seamless. Aaron scheduled me in quickly and accommodated my request to complete all 6 lessons over just 2 days (3 lessons each day). He was always on time, picked me up, and dropped me back after each class.

During the lessons, he explained the rules of the road and car handling clearly, pointed out my mistakes, and gave me practical tips on how to improve before my driving test. His guidance has really boosted my confidence behind the wheel. On top of that, he’s a genuinely nice guy—we had plenty of laughs along the way, which made the learning experience even more enjoyable.

Highly recommend In-Gear and especially Aaron if you’re looking for a great driving instructor!
Arko Sarkar
I passed my test on the first attempt and I could not have done it without my instructor Milan’s guidance! He was super patient and always made me feel confident behind the wheel. Lessons were very well structured and focused on building confidence. Highly recommend Milan to anyone looking for a reliable instructor.
Cathal Kennedy Hughes
Had my lessons with Catherine who is an excellent instructor. Highly recommend this school for anyone who is looking to learn to drive.
Adam Forbes
Great experience all around very calm and understanding would recommend to anybody and got me a 1st time pass thanks to Cathrine
Hem
After a nightmare experience I had with an ADI who worked for his own company, who wasn't ready to teach anything, demanded money upfront but not doing the lessons quickly (took 23 days to do 6 lessons i.e just 3days of reduced EDT), I failed the driving test. I took 4 hours of pre test lessons with an experienced ADI at Finglas through InGear driving school. Ed from InGear driving school was extremely experienced and treated me kindly, answered all my questions, was very cooperative. Moreover, he constantly encouraged me and boosted my morale. This is the kind of ADI you need to be able to not just pass the test but to drive confidently after getting your license. I passed with almost no faults at Dun laghoire test center today. I highly recommend students to go to reputed schools like In Gear and do not choose lesser known instructors even if they have high ratings on google. Its very misleading and its better you save yourself the heartache. Ed once again thank you. All the best to everyone who is looking to get their full license.
Rahman1x
Very good instructor. Passed with ease!
Sarah Storey
Norah was a brilliant teacher, always calm and clear in her instructions, and so patient. So grateful to have had her help in the lead up to my test.
Lefika Babedi
I’m absolutely thrilled to share that I’ve passed my road test. I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to IN GEAR DRIVING SCHOOL and especially to my amazing instructor, Paul. Your patience, guidance, and encouragement made all the difference. You helped me build the confidence and skills I needed more especially in the last few minutes before my final test and I’m so grateful for the support every step of the way. Thank you for being such a fantastic part of this journey this achievement wouldn’t have been possible without you.

Thank you so much Paul🙏🙏🙏🙏
Lalit Verma
I recently passed my driving test in Tallaght and I want to give a big thanks to Daniel at In Driving School. I did all my EDT lessons with him and the experience was excellent from start to finish.

Daniel was always easy to communicate with and very flexible when it came to scheduling lessons, which really helped with my busy routine. He constantly gave feedback after each session and kept track of my progress throughout the process.

We also covered the test routes around Tallaght as part of the lessons, which really helped me feel more confident on the day of the test.

I highly recommend Daniel if you’re looking for a reliable and professional instructor in the Tallaght or Lucan area.
Leah Quinn
Really rate in gear driving school, I did three pre tests with Catherine before passing my test first time in Killester, she was really helpful with lots of tips and overall improving my confidence driving.
George Marston
I am very happy that i made the decision to do my driving lessons with In Gear, who have some amazing and very professional instructors, such as my instructor, Catherine.
From laying out the foundations of doing the basics on day one, to adding the layers and layers of maneuvers and positoning as each lesson was ticked and completed. It really could not have been made any clearer and easy to follow and thanks to all this, I have passed my driving test.
Thank you Catherine and thank you In Gear for helping me get on the road, and I would highly encourage anyone, from the beginner going into college and needing to learn, to those who have their lessons done but want to brush up before their test, to definitely consider In Gear to be the one that gets you across the finish line.
Mother Earth Wellness Co

Ya-hoo! I passed in my first attempt! 🎉
Jackie Davies from Ingear Dublin was an amazing instructor from Day 1 of my EDT lessons. She explained road signs clearly, gave me practical driving tips, and important safety precautions. Jackie carefully examined my driving pattern, spotted every mistake, and worked with me until I fixed them. Her patience and encouragement built my confidence and got me test-ready.
sarahjane rooney
I would definitely recommend in gear. John is a fantastic instructor. he is dedicated and paitent.
Coxybaws
Had 12 lessons and some pre-tests with James. Couldnt be a better or more helpful instructor and I passed thanks to his encouragement and help.
Mike Kelly
Even though I have a full licence I hadn’t driven in 14 years. I needed to get back on the road and given how driving has changed I decided a few refresher lessons would be a good idea. Dan my instructor was superb, patient, encouraging and inspired confidence in me. I did 4 lessons with each one focused on getting used to the different road speeds/junctions etc. my last lesson was on the motorway and again Dan was encouraging to get up to 120kms and also manoeuvre through the lanes and exits. I can highly recommend him for any lessons whether you’re a first timer or just need a bit of a refresher.
Stian Silseth
I passed the driving test on the first go with their help. The pre test lesson on the day was also very helpful in getting me in the zone for the test. They know what you need to do to pass and they will get you there. I highly recommend them.
catherine finnegan
I can’t thank John enough for his amazing instruction and support. Thanks to him, I passed my driving test on the first attempt! His pre-test lessons were especially valuable — focused, calming, and exactly what I needed to build my confidence. John is patient, professional, and explains everything clearly, which made learning to drive safely a really positive experience. If you’re looking for an instructor who genuinely cares about your success and knows how to get you test-ready, John is the one to go to!
Caroline Zbroch
I passed my driving test 12 years ago back in Poland but haven’t driven since. I’m a very anxious driver, and getting back on the road felt almost impossible until I met Joe. From the very first lesson, he was calm, patient, and incredibly encouraging. He never made me feel rushed or judged, and he explained things in a way that made sense to me. Little by little, my confidence grew, and I actually started enjoying driving again! I can’t thank Joe enough for helping me overcome my fears. He’s not just a great instructor - he is someone who truly cares about his students. I highly recommend In Gear Driving School!
Sam Nolan
I have been with Joe for an about 2 months now and honestly have never felt more comfortable with driving! When I first started with him I was a nervous wreck and thought I’d never be able to overcome my fear of driving! Joe is very patient, helpful, and persistent when it comes to how he wants you to drive! He’s very chill and easy going which makes it easier to learn as you don’t feel uncomfortable, Joe has thought me a lot in the time I’ve been with him and I couldn’t recommend him enough, he created a really positive and comfortable experience for driving , overall he’s a nice man who wants to help as many people as he can become the best drivers , he’s the best at what he does
