Positive: Communication, Professionalism, Quality, Value Karina has been brilliant - I only wish I had started learning to drive with her, rather then my previous instructor. Within just two lessons I had gone from fearing and dreading getting into the car, to looking forward to it and wishing the lesson could not end. She is calm, explains things clearly and with each instruction she gives the reason why she is asking me to do that and the impact it has on other drivers. With each lesson her communication has been faultless, no time is wasted with chitter chatter that, I found with my previous instructor, distracted me. Every single lesson she has been minimum 10 minutes early and, with my consent, she is happy to run slightly over, ensuring what we had planned to cover in the lesson has been covered and making sure that I feel comfortable and happy with the skills taught, always encouraging me to ask questions if I feel the slightest uncertainty, which she answered every time succinctly and thoroughly. She took the initiative to find me a test date and book it for me before I went to Uni and she the pre booked lessons in the proceeding week so I had a lot of opportunity to practice and I felt test ready. After having lessons with Karina for a short period of time, I passed my test first time and I feel confident to drive safely on the road. I would definitely recommend Karina to anyone looking for a driving instructor - I wish I had found her sooner!
