I was worried about learning to drive, having attempted to learn a few years ago and finding it an overwhelming experience. I reached out to Gaye after reading how many others had found her to be calm and patient, and this was my experience too. From day one she took time to try and understand the things which would cause me stress in a lesson and then to find ways to manage these. She never made me feel rushed and let me repeat things as many times as I needed. It took me a relatively long time to feel ready for my test but Gaye never made me feel this was a problem. She sent me resources to look at between sessions and showed an interest in understanding my communication and processing style. She helped me focus on how I could become gradually more independent across our lessons. She was encouraging, recognising when I needed a higher level of support, but also when it would be beneficial for me to push beyond my comfort zone. Gaye's patient approach was invaluable in helping me to stick with it, and after many bumpy moments on route, I finally passed my test first time. Thank you
