I can't thank him enough

I am really glad that I had Paul as my instructor and that I learnt to drive with LDC. I was a really nervous driver when I first started and Paul was really patient and understanding with me. He took the time to make sure we worked at a pace that I was comfortable with and I didn't feel rushed or pressured. I felt supported throughout the whole experience by Paul and having the LDC workbook really helped me, especially with manoeuvres and getting ready for the test. I found the online student account really useful as well to help me prepare for my theory test. Paul is a really friendly instructor and made me feel calm and relaxed. He really helped me to build my confidence on the road and around larger vehicles. I can't thank him enough for helping me and would recommend Paul to anyone looking to learn to drive.

Lynn was incredibly patient

It took quite some effort for me to learn to drive and Lynne was with me every step of the way, even during the difficult times. She was incredibly patient and supported me throughout my entire journey. At the start of the lessons, she gave me the LDC driving skills workbook and recommended watching videos on LDC Learning Portal which turned out to be super useful. I am fully satisfied and thrilled to now have my full license having passed first time.

Andy was very calming

Andy my Instructor was very calming and understanding when it took me a while to figure out what I’m doing. The LDC workbook was very useful and helped me to understand the rights of way in roads and understand how I can visualise certain roads that I may not have come across.

Passed 1st Time

I was an incredibly nervous driver. Bob carefully planned our lessons so that my skills and confidence were able to develop at a comfortable pace. This meant that I passed my test first time. I would highly recommend Bob as an instructor due to his high level of skill and patience. I now feel confident that I will be able to drive safely and skilfully thanks to Bob and the LDC system.

Kate was amazing

My experience with Kate was amazing, she always found availability for me if you were unable to attend my scheduled lesson. She always made me feel comfortable and was easy to talk to and gave helpful tips which made me a better driver. She helped me with building up my confidence and making me feel comfortable and safe on the road. The LDC workbook helped me reflect and understand what I needed to work on for each lesson and set goals I wanted to achieve on the next lesson. It also had helpful information on the rules of the road and useful tips to use when driving. Overall my experience with Kate was amazing and I definitely recommend working with Kate and LDC to achieve becoming a confident and safe driver!

Brilliant instructor

I enjoyed my lessons with Kate, she took me on the best routes on lessons to suit my skill level. She is a brilliant Instructor who doesn't put pressure on you and helps throughout everything. The LDC workbook is a great help as well as you are able to write down what you struggle with and then improve the next lesson, within the book it also gives you all the information needed to pass your test, Because of Kate I passed first time!!

I honestly thought my pass wouldn’t come

I highly recommend David for driving lessons. His expertise and patience throughout each individual lesson was pertinent in me passing. I honestly thought my pass wouldn’t come but it was thanks to David’s calm words which allowed me to thrive. David is very friendly and always ensured to make lessons as light hearted as possible. David always reassured me I could do it even when I thought I couldn’t!

All lessons were individualised to myself which was vital in ensuring I was developing the skills I found most daunting. David’s knowledge of the roads, cars, and how learners think ensured I never felt alone with my anxieties. I found the LDC workbook extremely helpful for remembering the highlights and the learning moments to ensure I could work on these further! David always ensured to listen to my anxieties no matter how big or small and always made me feel better about this. I wouldn’t have passed without the tools David provided, so I cannot thank him enough!

I would recommend David!

Recommend to everyone

Great instructor, very patient and knowledgeable in driving tips and teaching content. Very nice and friendly throughout. Recommend to everyone. I liked the LDC workbook, it was very helpful and the videos were a good way to visually see what the manoeuvre looks like in action. The hub was good for the theory test prep as the questions were similar to the actual.

I was nervous at first

When I started with Ant and LDC I was nervous at first, but Ant was able to help me become a confident driver. His ability to teach me was incredible, by simplifying instructions or letting me take my time if I felt overwhelmed. The LDC system felt very simple to understand and has assisted me in learning to drive. I am very happy to say Ant is a brilliant Instructor and I am very grateful.

I have been worried about everything

I was so nervous when I started my first lessons, I had never before driven a car, and would never of thought I’d be driving, Andy Horn was fantastic and put me at ease straight away, Andy also had so much patience when I had a meltdown or got upset, Andy always knew what to do to cheer me up. Andy always had so much faith in me and keeping me going. The LDC driving skills workbook helped me throughout with the individual lessons, I could learn prior to getting into the car for the next lesson, this was a massive help, Andy preparing me for the test had been really good we’ve learning the test route, I have been worried about everything and putting it all together but with Andy he made it so much better In preparation for test, thank you Andy absolutely brilliant teacher. I passed with just 1 minor driving fault.

Passed with ZERO driving faults

Ged is amazing, hand down the best instructor I’ve ever had, and I’ve had a few instructors. I had done 2 other tests previously and lost all my confidence, but Ged built it all back up and made me the driver I am. I had the benefit of 2hr lessons which I could not recommend more, it really gives you the time to practise, Also the whole LDC system is great with the textbook provided and all the diagrams used to really explain tricky concepts. All in all, I had a great time learning with Ged and will very much miss driving with him.

The LDC workbook was brilliant

Patrick is a great Instructor, What I liked most was that during the process of me making an error he didn't jump straight in to correct it, he left it until I realised the error myself which I felt for me was great because he allowed me to realise my own mistakes so I can then get it right the next time. The LDC workbook was brilliant because before or after a lesson if I had forgotten something or wasn't sure, I could have a look in the book. This helped me retain the information I needed. After my first failed theory test I used the online hazard perception videos and these helped me to pass because of how similar they were to the real ones. I passed on my first attempt.

Always enthusiastic & motivating!

I really enjoy my driving lessons as Leigh is always enthusiastic and motivating. She creates fun analogies to help when I drive and we always have a laugh. The LDC workbook helped me visualise manoeuvres and test my knowledge. Overall my experience with Leigh has been extremely positive and I’m so happy to have passed! Thank you Leigh!

With previous instructors, I struggled

Throughout my life I never thought I was going to take up driving, however, I ended up finding myself in a position where obtaining a licence was a requirement to advance my career. With previous instructors, I struggled to get a grip with driving due to anxiety. Jackie has been truly outstanding and always made me feel as if I would inevitably get over my self-doubts. Her lessons were always tailored around the skills that we both felt that I had to work on, which always made me feel as if I was strongly progressing during and after each lesson. She also gave me highly beneficial advice on how to prepare for my practical test, such as watching YouTube videos of busy roundabouts which allowed me practice at identifying instances in which it would be safe to emerge onto one. The LDC workbook was also very useful. Once again, a huge thank you to Jackie, and I will be seeking further guidance from her on how to safely navigate motorways!

James’s was thorough

What I appreciated about my driving instructor James, was the thoroughness of his instruction. After completing each driving skill exercise we would park up away from heavy traffic to have an appraisal. This was carried out by having a dialogue with James on how I carried out the exercise and what I learned from doing the exercise. I used the LDC Driving Skills workbook to read about the driving skills I had to learn to become a competent driver. The LDC workbook is designed to be driver student interactive; where as a student, I appreciated the logical progression of knowledge and skills to be learned and marked off as progress is made. The LDC Workbook covers from appreciation of how the motor cars behaves in conjunction with a driving exercise, the fundamental skills and driving behaviours to be learnt. At the back of the Workbook it explains the driving test and what the driving test examiner expects and observes and how and what the student driver should carry out. Thank you again for your driving instruction and for helping me to pass. All The Best, Paul.

Lynne has been super

The LDC portal and workbook has been great at helping with the theory side of driving and helping cement my practical knowledge. Lynne has been super with my driving and really helped me settle my nerves. Many thanks.

Patient, with a great sense of humour

Jackie was very helpful and got me a first time pass. She was patient, with a great sense of humour. I found it a pleasure to learn with her. I would highly recommend Jackie to any new/learner driver. I found the LDC resources given to be very useful as they helped me to both learn and track my progress throughout.

Everything was taught at a comfortable pace

The LDC System is very helpful as it has everything in one place for the theory as well as being able to see your next lessons. Stephen is very patient and good at explaining things in different ways if you do not understand them first time. Everything was taught at a comfortable pace and we revisited things from previous lessons to reinforce what was learned. I felt well prepared and if I needed to practice anything in particular then Stephen would happily go over it. I passed first time.

Great guy, great instructor!

Lee is a fantastic and patient instructor who gave me great confidence as a driver. Even when I made mistakes he remained calm and patient with me and reassured me, taking the time to explain the mistake and help me understand how I can avoid it in the future. I struggled greatly with planning ahead while driving and reverse bay and parallel park, but Lee did some amazing lessons that greatly helped my understanding and technique to be able to do them successfully, which gave me so much confidence. I can’t recommend Lee enough, a great guy, great instructor! Take lessons with him, you won’t regret it. I can’t thank him enough for helping me through my exam! The LD system, including the resources on the website and the workbook are a great help. Each giving you a step by step guide on manoeuvres and accompanying videos that give clear instruction on how to complete each exercise. I can’t recommend the system enough, I wish I’d gone with them sooner!

Fun and Progressive Lessons

I recently passed my driving test using the LDC process with instructor Mark. A great help. Upon writing this review there were several commendable aspects about the process and LDC specifically. I would first like to touch on how useful the online resources were. It is a genuine driving bible. Every aspect of the course is on there including theory practice tests, the highway code, lesson modules and so on. A very useful tool to refer to. Secondly, I'd like to commend the lessons and teaching in general. I genuinely do not think there is a better teacher out there, Mark has the ability to defer stress in times of road panic. I remember one of my first junctions lessons I stalled the car three times within three minutes, through this Mark aided me with a reassuring 'not to worry' proceeded by instructions to get us out of the situations. The lessons were fun and progressive and we spent adequate time on each module, making efficient progress. Most importantly though, Mark is a very likeable person and makes the lessons feel ever so easy, he is equipped with gapes of road knowledge and has all of the correct resources and methods needed to succeed.
