I have been searching for a driving school for a while. I've read all the negative reviews about GSI and at first, decided to avoid them. I found another available instructor and that was my big mistake (but that is another story)) ) With great suspicion, I called GSI and booked a test lesson. I can't tell you about all their instructors, but Pepi Marchese is an AMAZING instructor! Very professional, patient, calm, positive and punctual. Even if you'll do something wrong (and you will as we're all learning) he will remain professional and explain what was the mistake and how to avoid it next time.I've passed my driving test already but will book some motorway lessons with them later. Thank you GSI and THANK YOU VERY MUCH PEPI!!! You're a great teacher! Read Less

This man is vile. He made the learner cry, took personal calls whilst in the car, spoke ill of ex pupils to me and shouted at the learner. Didn't turn up several times to lessons. Owes us money which I have confronted him about and he denied. I have made an official complaint to the driving standards agency about him and when he was informed of this, he told the driving standards agency that my claims were untrue. He has rated himself 5 out of 5 on google. Need I say more? Avoid this driving instructor like the plague!! Awful experience! Read Less

I chose GSI based on friends’ recommendations and I didn’t look at reviews online which was my first mistake. My instructor was inappropriate, unreliable, had sexist and racist remarks, asked me if I was gay (?), had very inappropriate conversation with another female student in the back of the car who I was driving home. He was often late and didn’t let me know or apologise for his tardiness. Flat out lied to me about fees. He never attempted to teach me how to be a good and safe driver, I picked up more bad habits from him than anything positive. I paid slightly less for my lessons than another student, I heard him discuss this on the phone as very often he did that while I was driving, on loudspeaker (very distracting). He shouted at me most of the time for no reason. For reference I changed schools and with my new instructor I passed first time. Read Less
