When I finally decided to take my driving lessons after years of having anxiety about doing so, I chose Phil at LDC as my boyfriend had passed first time with him and he highly recommend him. As soon as I met Phil I explained how nervous I was and explained my main reason to learn to drive was to have a better future for my daughter and myself. He understood me totally and was so calm. He explained things to me easily and slowly as he could tell I was very anxious. We went through the driving skills workbook which is great, I used that daily to top up on information. Phil as been more than an instructor to me, he has been my comfort whilst behind the wheel and also my friend. Passing my test my first time is just out of this world!! He tells me 'I've done all the hard work' but.... without Phil being so professional and calm I would never have achieved this. My dreams have come true!! Thank you Phil!!!
