Just some of the many positive comments about Love Driving:

“I started driving lessons with Richard after previously having a very bad experience with another driving instructor, my confidence and ability to drive was rock bottom and I didn’t believe I would be able to pass my test. Richard re-energised my confidence and gave me the skills I needed in order to learn to how to drive.

His enthusiasm for driving is evident along with his patience, support and encouragement and the ability to listen to non stop talking!

Within a short number of months I was taking my theory test and was booked in for my practical test. I passed first time! All thanks goes to Richard! A fantastic driving instructor and a true individual!”

“Dear Richard, Just to say a big thankyou for the excellent motorway lesson a while ago now. After a little bit of regular practice of a weekend on the M42- last weekend I drove to Middlesbrough and back confidently. Even when there was heavy showers on the way back it didnt phase me as our lesson had been on a rainy Sunday. So many thanks once again for your excellent tuition.”

“I would like to say that learning to Drive with Richard was a very pleasant experience. He understood my main concern about learning – very well and helped me overcome it.

I can say that I passed my driving practical test only as a result of joining Love Driving school with Richard, or I would still be struggling to gain confidence in myself. Richard made me believe in myself I can say, and has made me a confident driver. ”

Thanks for understanding”

“Hi Richard,  I wanted to write to thank you so much for your time last week and to let you know a few things: Today, I PASSED MY PRACTICAL DRIVING TEST!  I absolutely could not have done it without you.  I practiced everything you told me and I studied all of the questions over the weekend and it worked.  What a relief!  I think my husband will want to learn from you as well.  If so, he will contact you and ask for you specifically. I can not thank you enough. You are an excellent instructor!”

“After failing my part 3 twice I was recommended by another ADI to give Richard a call. I found Richard to be very  patient and understanding. I started training at a well known college but it was always two up in the car and the first half of the lesson was the other PDI which always over ran in to my half of the lesson. They did not cover all the PST’s, and the ones they did cover there was not enough time and detail given. Richard breaks down every PST into a format that is both understandable and easy to learn, going into every detail and showing you what the examiners are looking for. Richards easy going nature put me
at ease making  it enjoyable, but at the same time very informative.

Give Richard a call  before you sign up to any college. He will give you a taste of what to expect. I highly recommend Richard to anyone attempting to pass their part three exam,as I feel without him I would have failed.”

“When I first started my driving lessons with Richard I was very nervous and suffered from anxiety attacks. Richard was very easy going and put me at ease straight away.

He is very approachable, patient and easy to communicate with. When I made a mistake he did not shout or raise his voice in any way; but he would explain exactly what I had done wrong. Frequently he would ask me what I had done wrong and help me to work out how to correct my mistakes myself.

After I had passed I did the Pass Plus course with him. This I found invaluable especially for women driving alone. He clearly advised  me of all the safety aspects of driving, things I would never have thought of previously.

On the whole I found him to be very dedicated, approachable, understanding. He always gave clear, precise instructions, never raised his voice or lost his temper and was very patient. He is an an excellent instructor that I would thoroughly recommend.”

“I started driving with Richard in January 09 and thanks to his patience, professional and friendly teaching practice, he had me passed on both the theory and practical by August 09. First Time on both to my shock! I wish I had been fortunate to have him as my first instructor as I would have kept it up instead of letting it fall by the way side.

If you want to pass, I couldn’t recommend anyone as highly as I do Richard.”

“Well where do I start? I started driving lessons when I was 17. Id had numerous lessons and so many instructors. I started lessons with Richard in July 2017 and my confidence was rock bottom so I went for an automatic as having so many lessons and instructors in the past it had traumatised me. Richard was patient and understanding which allowed me to learn at my own pace. I passed first time in September 2017. Richard believed in me and now I believe in myself, he truly is a wonderful instructor so much so that I’m now taking my manual lessons with him. I’ve been terrified of clutches since I can remember but I know with Richard by my side I can and I will pass my manual test. Thank you so much for everything Richard. You truly are wonderful!”
