I recently completed a semi-intensive course with Gary Rowe at LDC Driving School and had a brilliant experience. Gary was professional, calm, and really well-organised. We used the LDC workbook throughout the lessons to track my progress, take notes, and set goals—it really helped me stay focused and understand how I was improving. As a learner, that structure made a huge difference. What I really appreciated was how Gary helped me feel at ease. I was nervous at the start, but his patient, clear teaching style helped me become more confident with every lesson. By the end, I felt genuinely ready for real-world driving—not just the test. The semi-intensive format suited me perfectly. It kept up momentum without feeling rushed, and Gary was great at adjusting the pace based on how I was doing. I passed first time, and more importantly, I now feel like a safe, confident driver. I’d definitely recommend Gary Rowe at LDC to anyone looking for a supportive, skilled instructor who really knows how to teach.
