Roy is a wonderful, patient driving instructor. After a rough experience and 3 previous instructors, Roy finally got me through my test. He's by far the most reliable, patient and skilled instructor I had, not to mention the funniest. If you're looking for a calm, friendly instructor, Roy is your man!

When I first started my driving lessons I was shaking like a leaf and didn't want to get in the car. Roy Lee made me feel comfortable and confident to just get in and drive. He really is an amazing driving instructor and I cannot recommend him enough

Couldn't think of a better instructor. As well as a teacher, he became a great friend too. If you're up to learn to drive and have a few laughs along the way, go no further. I passed first time, so can you. Big thumbs up for Roy. Couldn't get a better recommendation.
