I decided to contact Phil after not making much progress with another driving school, and having recommendations from two of his former pupils who had really enjoyed the experience of learning to drive with him, and passed - needless to say I wasn't disappointed. Phil's clear and friendly way of instructing as well as explaining techniques and manoeuvres quickly put me at ease and made the whole process of learning to drive fun, and a whole lot less stressful.
With Phil as an instructor I was able to shape my lessons to suit my learning needs and to work on things that I was less confident with; this flexibility meant that I was constantly learning, and that after every lesson I took something new away. Phil's incorporation of diagrams and aerial views to his instruction was invaluable and really helped with tricky junctions and roundabouts. Things just seemed to click after lessons with Phil.
I know that I now have all the skills I need to deal with tricky driving situations calmly and with ease on my own, all thanks to Phil - I can't thank him enough!
