Kara Hartshorn

Karina is an amazing driving instructor. She really helped build my confidence when driving, when I struggled in certain areas she would clearly explain the issue and effectively help resolve the problem, constantly remaining calm, patient and supportive. She is very punctual, arriving early most lessons! and doesn't mind running a few minutes over to explain something to you. It is clear She is passionate about what she does and this shines through in her lessons.

Karina cares greatly for your well being and safety, her lessons have helped develop the skills to drive safely every time I'm in the car. I found the LDC workbook very useful, before driving I had little knowledge of driving or how the car works, but this book clearly explained everything and made learning to drive that bit easier. It explains things in a clear, simple way and has quizzes to help you understand. It also included "show me, tell me" questions which could be asked in the test and also highlights what the examiners are looking for on the test.

In addition it gives a clear structure on what things need to be learned or improved on using a tick system with a progress chart. Seeing the ticks as I made progress really helped boost my moral and visualise how much I had achieved.
