What an experience to have taught Dawn with many incredible ups and downs. She is not your everyday 17 something learner but oh my, what an enthusiasm, energy and youthful drive to want to learn and pass the test that has always alluded her. With moving to a new home in a different town, Dawn had one chance to pass with me and put away all those years of trying. Congratulations Dawn for passing first time with me.

Enjoy getting your new VW/Seat Company Car.
Sometimes falling off that horse and trying to get back on again is too difficult for some. Rachael came to me having had a bad experience failing her test some years ago in Scunthorpe. We worked hard on her confidence trying to plan ahead for the test without that cloud of failure and nagging doubts trying to get a hold and bring her down. And you did it!! Congratulations Rachael for passing your test first time with me. An amazing drive with only 1 minor. I am going to miss our Northern banter!! Drive safely.
For me you do not always get the most satisfaction from a student easily passing first time with not a struggle in the world. I hope Sarina forgives me for saying but driving for some doesn’t always come so naturally and straightforward. For some students, it’s a massive challenge mentally and physically to get through that test and prove to the world they can drive. Sarina has had to work incredibly hard for this day to arrive. She even took time away to have a baby. I even bet there were some tears shed secretly away from me, thinking this day would never arrive. BUT it has! I am proud of you Sarina, a brilliant drive with 4 minors and I am grateful to have shared your journey as your instructor. Take care on the roads.
