Dawn was my driving instructor for 5 months. With no previous driving experience, learning to drive had its up’s and downs. Some lessons driving really well and others were confusing and difficult as I learned the co-ordination and road knowledge necessary to be a proficient, safe driver. Throughout all this Dawn was my calm and patient guide. Not only is Dawn a knowledgable instructor, she understands that every person is an individual and has the talent to be able to change her coaching style which enabled me to get the best from every lesson with her. She encouraged me to think for myself in situations as they occurred on the road and then took time after to discuss how those decisions effected other road users and myself in a non-judgemental way allowing me to learn from my mistakes and become a competent driver. This was a valuable exercise; now when driving i am very aware of traffic and my surroundings and always plan ahead for what could happen. Dawn is a calm under pressure and i always felt safe when driving with her. Her previous jobs as a bus driver and police constable combined with her advanced driving skills I feel informs how she teaches her learner drivers the rules of driving and the roadway to a very high standard. I cannot recommend Dawn enough, she was absolutely an amazing instructor who genuinely cares about her students and is focused on making them safe and skilled drivers. Thank you so much Dawn!
