Jacque (37)

I recently did my driving course with John's LDC driving school. Originally I chose to do the 30 hour intensive course. However, John advised I break it up a bit and do it over the four weeks whilst waiting for my test date. It was the best advice ever as I had at least six hours per week leading up to the test, which kept all the information you have to take in refreshed and I was ready to do my test and PASSED first time.

John was a very patient instructor and although keeping me on track he also let me proceed at a pace I was comfortable with. I was a very nervous driver in the beginning; it was such a pleasure to finally have an instructor who never raised his voice. John is very encouraging and only gives constructive criticism which is so helpful. I also did my pass plus straight away which really helped with motorway training especially and I definitely recommend it as it covers night driving, weather conditions etc.

I recently went on holiday back to Southern Africa and what a pleasure it was to have the freedom to go where I needed to, without depending on other people.

You are never too old to learn and having my drivers' license has opened endless doors and opportunities for me. John you are so amazing and I am eternally grateful that I got you as an instructor and a friend.

My pleasure Jacque, you made my job easy and were a model pupil, I'm only sorry that you had to suffer a couple of bad experiences before we got together.

All the very best in your new world on four wheels and please keep it SAFE, John.
