# Elmer Driving
Elmer Driving is an established driving school based in Kimberley, Nottingham, serving learners across Nottingham, Eastwood, Hucknall and surrounding areas preparing for tests at Watnall test centre. Founded in 2005 by Tim Elmer, the school brings over two decades of experience to driver instruction.
The business caters to beginners, intermediate and experienced drivers, offering tailored lessons that match individual ability levels. Their service range includes standard driving lessons, motorway driving tuition, refresher courses for returning drivers, and mock driving tests administered by independent instructors. Block booking discounts are available for those committing to multiple lessons.
What distinguishes Elmer Driving is Tim's teaching philosophy—focused on efficiency and genuine progress rather than time-wasting. Customer reviews consistently highlight his patience, calm demeanour and ability to build confidence quickly. Students report learning more in fewer hours than with other instructors, with one learner gaining confidence after just three 90-minute sessions following a three-year driving break.
The school deliberately avoids gimmicky introductory offers, instead maintaining permanently competitive pricing. Their distinctive colourful car design pays homage to Elmer the Elephant, adding memorable character to the brand. Rather than high-pressure sales tactics, Elmer Driving emphasises honest feedback and genuine support in helping students pass their tests.
