Hi I’m Mike
I teach manual lessons.
Thank you for looking at my profile.
With over 20 years of driving experience, I bring a wealth of practical knowledge to every lesson with a passion for safe, confident driving.
My background extends beyond just driving, as I was also a qualified dinghy sailing instructor, which adds an element of precision and calm to my teaching style.
I served in the armed forces for 6 years, an experience that has shaped my professionalism and punctual approach to teaching. I have driven in many driving conditions in many countries under stress and anxiety, so I understand how nervous people can feel taking the wheel for the first time or approaching their driving test. In addition, I also held a qualification as an ADR (Accord Dangerous Goods by Road) driver and also have a full motorcycle licence.
Being a driving instructor with Supreme School of Motoring means that I have all the latest instructional techniques, and generally ‘coach’ rather than ‘tell’ my clients, and work with each individual to discuss their needs and together find the best way to coach them to success whilst being calm and patient.
Whether you’re looking to improve your driving skills, prepare for your test, or gain more confidence on the road, I will be pleased to help you succeed.
I drive a grey Audi A1.

I’d like to massively thank Mike for helping Morgan pass his driving test! Mike was an amazing driving instructor – patient, caring, and understanding. He gave Morgan the confidence he needed to succeed, and we can’t thank him enough for his time and expertise. We highly recommend Mike to anyone, fabulous driving instructor!

I really enjoyed learning to drive with Mike. I can’t thank him enough for not only helping me to pass my test first time but to give me the confidence to know I’ll be driving safely now I’m on the road. I highly recommend Mike to anyone who wants a friendly reliable driving instructor. Thanks Mike

I had the pleasure of learning to drive with Mike, and I couldn’t have asked for a better instructor. From the very first lesson, he made me feel comfortable, confident, and supported. Mike has an amazing way of teaching, he’s calm, clear, and incredibly patient. He explained everything in a way that made complete sense and always gave constructive feedback at the end of lessons that helped me improve. Each lesson built on the last, and I could really feel myself advancing and growing in confidence week by week.
Thanks to Mike, I not only passed my test with 0 faults, but I now feel ready and capable to drive on my own. I genuinely looked forward to every lesson we had. So, if you’re looking for an instructor who’s professional, relaxed, friendly, and dedicated to helping you succeed, I 100% recommend Mike.

Mike was a fabulous instructor from day one. Following a bad experience with her previous instructor, my daughter went from being a very nervous and hesitant driver to, with Mike’s guidance, being very self confident (not that she would ever have shared that with Mike directly. Lol). His calm and jokey attitude made her feel instantly relaxed in her lessons. She has gone from hating being behind the wheel to now saying that she actually quite likes driving. All of this, and his support in helping her pass her test first time means that we would recommend Supreme and Mike, in particular, every time!

Mike Knights was a great driving instructor and my daughter learnt quickly and enjoyed the lessons. He was always punctual and really responsive. He also helped get the driving test booked.
Would highly recommend him and Supreme School of Motoring. Thank you!

Mike Knights built our sons confidence and gave him the necessary skills to drive safely and competently. A great communicator and reliable. Thank you Mike and Supreme.

Mike and all the team at Supreme are fantastic and supported me massively in my journey to passing. Mike was patient and encouraging in every lesson while also always working towards that end goal of passing. If my confidence faltered he knew exactly how to get me back on track and also knew when to push me. The team at Supreme have great systems for supporting each student with mock tests with other instructors etc, which I’m sure helped me pass my test first time. Thank you so much to Mike and Supreme!
