Sophie Storrs
Phil came highly recommended to me by friends, and having no prior driving experience his patient and supportive demeanour helped me to settle my nerves and quickly feel calm and in control behind the wheel. His lessons were planned out to help me achieve the most from them and improve my own ...

After only a few months learning to drive from scratch, with Phil's guidance I felt prepared to take my test and I'm happy to say I passed first time. When first starting out learning to drive I was very anxious, but with Phil's support I quickly overcame my initial nerves, and felt safe behin...

Nell Hall's Testimonial

I started lessons with Phil after about a year of learning to drive with another instructor. My busy schedule meant I struggled to fit in lessons with my first instructor, but when I started having lessons with Phil, I found that he was very accommodating and prepared to fit around my annoying sc...

Emma Carrigan's Testimonial
Emma Carrigan
Phil didn't only teach me how to pass my driving test, his client centred learning allowed me to structure my lessons around what I wanted to work on which helped me to improve the things I wasn't too confident about prior to booking my test (rather than just hoping I didn't get asked to do them!...

Emi Haffety's Testimonial

Phil was recommended to me by a few friends who had passed first time and spoke very highly of his lessons. He is an excellent driving instructor who gave me valuable advice about the practical and theory driving tests. I felt the pace at which I was taught was very good as we always went back to...

From my first lesson on my birthday in June right through to the hour lesson I had before my test, Phil's calm and collected manner made me feel at ease in my driving lessons. Everything was always explained in detail to me, and if I ever had any questions about anything or an area of driving I w...

Hannah Wright's Testimonial
Hannah Wright
My brother Tom first learnt to drive with Phil and he defied all my preconceptions about new drivers. I was amazed by how confident and at ease he was behind the wheel having passed first time in a fairly short period. After witnessing his success I decided to give Phil a ring. After just one les...

Phil was a wonderful instructor. He explained everything very clearly and was always prepared with examples to illustrate a situation.

I was fortunate to come across Phil's website having not lived in Sheffield very long and it was actually the previous testimonials which led to me giving him a call and getting that first lesson booked! Phil makes you feel very comfortable in the car, I think this is really important, especia...

Driving lessons with Phil are just the best. His calm and jokey manner makes the lessons fly past! Even from the very first lesson, I came out with renewed confidence and a desire to practice.

Viktor O's Testimonial

I came into driving a little late in life having previously lived in a different city with great transport links and no 'real' need to drive. I used a driving school which resulted in a couple of failed attempts. I almost gave up but decided to try again but this time with a different instructor....

George Bryan's Testimonial
George Bryan
After several recommendations to pick Phil as my driving instructor, I quickly saw why people had recommended him. Not only does Phil prepare you for the driving test itself by ensuring all the test requirements are covered, he teaches the skills and provides the information needed to ensure safe...

Jess Hill's Testimonial

I think the key to not only passing your driving test but also to becoming a competent driver is finding the right instructor that suits your learning style and Phil definitely ticked that box for me! From the word go, he took the time to understand the areas that I needed to work on by encouragi...

After getting a new job in Sheffield I finally decided it was about time I learnt how to drive. I had had lessons previously but still didn't feel completely confident in the car.

Fahimeh's Testimonial
Fahimeh
Passing my driving test in the UK was a nightmare for me. As a mature driver who has driven for more than 20 years outside of the UK without any accidents, getting my driving licence looked at first like it would be easy for me. After I took some training sessions with my ex-driving instructor...

Frances Wood's Testimonial
Frances Wood
After trying two different driving instructors, with whom I failed to make much progress, I was very pleased to find Phil! Within a few months I had passed my test first time and now feel confident enough to tackle the roads on my own. Phil taught me how to drive rather than just how to pass a te...

Passing your driving test can be stressful and give you sleepless nights, and there are so many driving schools and academies out there so finding a really good one is difficult, but with LDC and Phil Padfield i found all my answers to my questions and my needs. Phil made everything so self expla...

Jessica Stephens's Testimonial

Learning to drive can be a daunting experience but Phil is very calm and relaxed which immediately puts you at ease! His standard of teaching is superb; he prepares you for driving independently on the road and not just to pass your test. His teaching approach is very focused on his pupils, he le...

Sally Frith's Testimonial

Despite having no interest in driving, Phil somehow managed to keep my concentration long enough to pass 2nd time. As I am busy studying in London I had to take intensive lessons for four weeks during various holiday times. Phil was very accommodating even when I had to cancel my driving test las...

Several friends recommended Phil as a driving instructor, and I am very happy that I took their advice. I previously did an intensive driving course with another company who taught me how to pass my test, but I still didn't feel happy or confident in my driving. Phil allows you to drive as you fe...

This is the first week of 'real' driving since passing my test last week. Despite a few nerves I have tackled the hills in Sheffield, reverse parked in the dark and braved the University Roundabout!! Many of my friends and family have been surprised by how confident I am but it comes as no surpri...

Laura Cryans's Testimonial
Laura Cryans
I came to Phil having had 2 previous instructors, having not driven for almost 3 years, and with 4 previous failed driving tests behind me. It was fair to say I felt I would never be able to pass my driving test. Although I appreciated that I could drive, I felt that passing the test itself was a...

I originally begun learning to drive with a different instructor but felt as if I wasn't making any progress and so after being highly recommended by a friend I called upon Phil.
