With every lesson I did with Alastair I saw an improvement in my driving skills and knowledge of the road. I found his training technique very positive and calm when it s needed. I would highly recommend Alastair for people in need of driving lessons. The 41 hours I did were great value for money

I found the LDC driver training with Alastair very enjoyable, feeling confident and relaxed after a short number of lessons. He provided a good learning environment.
