I had previously had a few lessons when I was 17 and again at 23, but absolutely hated driving, was overly nervous, and didn't enjoy it one bit. I felt driving just wasn't for me. I never felt that I had ever learnt or achieved anything from the few lessons i'd experienced and had given up that i'd ever get my license. I started learning to drive with Andy in March, from the start Andy made me feel relaxed. Unlike the previous instructors he was always positive and never shouted at me when I did things wrong. I never felt out of my depth or like a bad driver, he pushed me the right amount at the right times and always explained the hows and whys fully to me rather then barking orders such as change gear etc. he was always on time and flexible if I had to change a lesson last minute due to my line of work. It had become a running joke with family and friends that I would never be able to drive, but on the 7th may at almost 36 weeks pregnant I was able to pass my test with only 5 minors, not only has Andy helped me achieve what I thought was impossible (in just over 2 months!) - I feel he has also taught me how to be a safe driver for life - not just how to pass the test on the day, which is especially important to me as I will be transporting around my baby. I feel he has given me knowledge that I will be able to use on the road every day. Thanks andy for all the support and help you gave me - I can't recommend you enough!
