Passed 1st time
The lessons were very good and planned out, especially as my schedule would only allow a 1 hour lesson a week. Graeme was very supportive throughout and made me feel calm and I was able to bring up any worries I may have had. I had trouble with other instructors previously and I’m very happy to have gone with Graeme.

Great learning Materials
LDC was the second company I used for lessons. Using LDC changed the whole game of learning. It was clear and helped me especially with my Dyslexia and processing. It helped me to my success. All information was amazing and helpful.

The first day I got in the car I knew Graeme’s knowledge, wisdom and experience was 2nd to none. In my opinion his methods and techniques just seem to be superior to any instructors I have had in the past. Top rated instructor for me☀️

Great resources
The LDC workbook topics and videos were really helpful on the site. The videos sent by Graeme were really helpful too, Especially when it came to the Show me / Tell me part of the test. The learning methods were helpful as well, especially when it came to the Manoeuvres side of the test. The Workbook I was given helped to keep track of what I needed to focus on when it came close to my test.

Graeme was a great help and the reason I passed my driving test. Graeme was firm but fair in my lessons, telling me my areas to improve and what I can do to be the best drover possible. The LDC workbook was a major help as it talks through all details of driving. All in all a great instructor and great driving school.

Super pass
Graeme is an excellent instructor. From the 1st lesson to the last and test. He was very calm, patient, and practical. His training was faultless. When I had moments of doubt he listened and encouraged me to continue. If I had issues with certain areas he would talk about why I felt that way and encouraged me to conquer them by going over and over them until I wasn't nervous anymore. This helped me a lot. The LDC videos he sent of certain roundabouts in my area were easy to understand and helped to see where you need to be situated when using them. The videos for the show me, tell me section were a massive help too, so when asked I knew the answers. The LDC workbook was a godsend. It's full of everything you need to know, and you can see your progress and also know what areas you need to improve on. Graeme explains everything, and you can refer to the book if you need to, and of course, ask him any questions if you are unsure. I had tried another driving instructor before Graeme but never felt confident enough. He built up my confidence to be able to pass, and I am grateful that I found him.

Jack Beale
Faultless Pass
I can’t praise highly enough Graeme’s patience, encouragement, and attention to detail, which allowed me to achieve a faultless pass in my practical test. I found using the LDC resources helpful - the workbook was incredibly thorough and helped me track my progress, identifying specific skills to focus upon in lessons to improve my driving. I would certainly recommend LDC and Graeme to anyone I knew looking to learn to drive.

Graeme was always encouraging and kept me calm in every lesson. He made me think through all my actions and make me question how I did. This allowed me to develop my skills assess my own learning.

Graeme made me feel comfortable right from the beginning. He made me feel in control of lessons and my learning, he didn't over instruct and let me work it out. He helps in the right circumstances.

I really enjoyed my time learning to drive with Graeme. He was always very positive, which I needed to balance out my negativity. He taught me everything I needed to be able to pass 1st time- never did I think that would have happened. He was always calm and never seemed to get frustrated when things went wrong, which I have heard lots of instructors do. Overall, I couldn't recommend learning with Graeme enough.

Graeme was very thorough and calm when i was driving and if i had a made a fault. He was very understanding when i sometimes panicked.

First time pass
Graeme is ever such a calming influence in the car. Very friendly but assertive. He teaches well, giving clear instructions and directions and intervenes only when necessary for everyone’s safety. Graeme explains things well, is always punctual and ready and a good price. First time pass with Graeme 😀 Some things still to work on for me to be the safest driver I want to be and Graeme has offered his help with these things with no obligation. The LD workbook is great too, loads of useful info, quizzes and sets driving objectives out in clear targets to work through so you know where your at throughout your learning. Graeme has also sent me videos of manoeuvres and pictures of roundabouts, scribbled on to explain lanes, turning etc. Recommended
