KISS Driving Instructor Tymek Skroban in Gloucester - Carmelis

This is Carmelis who passed her test in Cheltenham in an automatic. This is what instructor Tymek wrote: From the moment Carmelis reached out, it was clear she wasn’t just looking to pass a driving test—she wanted to become a confident, capable driver for life. She’d already spent around 80 hours with a previous instructor, failed twice, and felt stuck. She was honest about her frustrations, especially with roundabouts and unfamiliar roads.

Over 54 hours together in just two months, we rebuilt her confidence from the ground up. I’ll never forget one early lesson where Carmelis broke down in tears—not from failure, but from finally being understood. We talked through her fears, reworked her approach, and little by little, she grew into the driver she wanted to be. We explored new roads, tackled tough cities like Swindon (including the Magic Roundabout), Bristol, and Birmingham, and pushed boundaries well beyond Gloucester’s test routes.

On test day? She passed with just one driving fault! It was bittersweet because, as she said herself, our lessons felt more like road trips—filled with laughter, dad jokes, and genuine progress.

Carmelis, thank you for trusting me. You’ve come so far, and I’m beyond proud of you. Keep driving like you own the road—you’ve earned it.

Carmelis left so lengthy and in-depth review on Google that I don’t even try to quote here!

KISS Driving Instructor Tymek Skroban in Gloucester - Isabelle

Isabelle from May Hill passed her driving test on the first attempt. She needed 81 hours to overcome her nerves and pass with just a few driving faults. For the last 20 hours or so, instructor Tymek mainly trained on the manoeuvres. Isabelle is a natural-born driver and did many things instinctively very well, but passing the test requires additional skills that were initially difficult for her to grasp. Well done, Iza, and safe driving for life from everyone at KISS Driving School .
