Anniesland is the most popular choice for Milngavie learners.

This is what most local instructors recommend to beginner learners.
Glasgow (Shieldhall) is a natural alternative option when Anniesland is fully booked. The routes here are a bit more varied, incorporating residential roads as well as busy dual carriageway sections. Dumbarton should be considered if you prefer a more quiet and low traffic test environment. The routes here include more rural and semi rural areas, suitable for learners who have had good practice on the A81 and surrounding country routes during their Mulingavi classes.

The number you posted 0300 2004 576 is invalid (BTW this was a typo on your end)
Last update :
My daughter tried to contact her instructor a couple of times and then the office, but the answering machine was on. Then I tried to contact you and I got through.
It's not true that the lessons are a couple of months ago either, her last lesson was in October and since then my daughter tried to contact the driving instructor and driving school.
You wanted to look into the issue why the instructor is not contacting my daughter anymore, and you wanted to call me back.
You didn't call back, instead you sent my daughter a text message, that the number is wrong and you couldn't find the name either and her mum should remove the review.
So I started to be very worried that here is a fraud happening and god knows who my daughter had driving lessons with, as you couldn't find the instructor.
After our phone call, by the way, the instructor removed her from WhatsApp and all conversation was gone!!
So even more worried.
But we have bank account details and so I tried to contact you again to find out what's happening. Now the answering machine also turned on when I tried to call!
My husband called you today and indeed the bank details are from your company and you also knew the instructor! And then phone call got disconnected.....
Luckily no fraud happening here as you know the instructor and we also know that we paid to your company.
However we still don't understand why the instructor didn't come back, and why you try to make it hard to get in touch with you, and why you have no answers.
Very mysterious.....

use him for my other 2 children when the time comes ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🌟
