First Time Pass
I had the pleasure of learning to drive with Clare and I can confidently say that she is such an outstanding driving instructor. From the very first lesson, Clare made me feel at ease with her calm and patient demeanor. Her teaching style is simple, clear and effective. Throughout my lessons, Clare was incredibly encouraging and supportive. She celebrated my successes and provided reassurance during challenging moments. This positive reinforcement was needed for building my confidence and reducing any anxiety I had about driving, thanks to Clare I passed first time with 2 minors! ❤️

100% would recommend Clare
3rd instructor I've had and by far the best. Clare is super patient, kind and knowledgeable. Really enjoyed my lessons with her - which is really a testament to how lovely she is because I really didn't enjoy driving! Passed my test with lots of encouragement from Clare at every turn and am actually excited to start driving now. All thanks to her 🚘👍👌

I passed last Monday! Clare was incredibly supportive, and walking me through everything required. Having taught me to drive, she coached me through the driving test process with clarity. Without her support I seriously doubt I’d be a full license holder. Thank you Clare, so much!

Learning with Clare enabled me to pass my test first time! Clare is so kind and understanding and adapts her teaching style to the learners needs, making you feel involved with the process every step of the way. Due to past experiences I had very little confidence in driving and the thought of driving was not a pleasant one, but after just an hour or 2 with Clare I felt reassured and gained my confidence back rapidly. I then looked forward to driving and started to believe in myself. I honestly can’t recommend learning with Clare enough! Anyone thinking about learning to drive should contact her immediately! In a way, I’m sad that I passed as I no longer require her time for my lessons. Thank you Clare :)

Clare was a great instructor especially with being so nervous when I started. She built my confidence after such a short amount of time. When my test got cancelled she was really flexible with changing my lessons to suit. I couldn't thank her enough for helping me pass first time. And I wouldnt hesitate to recommend her to anyone wanting to learn to drive!

I've had such an amazing experience with Clare, her teaching points are always helpful and her feedback is always constructive. Nothing is ever said with a negative attitude and she's so reassuring! Clare's seen me laugh, cry, and be overly frustrated, but none of it phased her or her ability to get me to where I am today; an extremely happy women with a Full UK Driving Licence!

I highly recommend this wonderful woman to anyone looking to get on the road!
