Kate was amazing with me and so patient, I have been with her on and off for 2 years, and she's always made me feel at ease with everything. I didn't have a lot of confidence at all but Kate always have me the confidence boost that I needed, and although the phrase "I don't know what I'm doing" was said a lot in lessons, I did in fact know what I doing thanks to Kate! I took time out of lessons to focus on my theory and after that time came back. Kate made me feel like I'd never left and still put me at ease giving me the extra confidence that I needed. Although it took me 11 times to pass my theory and I began to give up, Kate pushed me to my best and I passed my practical first time with only 2 minors! (and both of them happened in the car park leaving the test centre!) I could not be happier with the way Kate has taught me in order for me to pass. She is an mazing woman and so lovely, very easy to get along with. I would like to thank her so so much for helping me pass my driving test!

So pleased to be driving now!
Kate was the best teacher to have my driving lessons with (I moved to Kate after a negative experience with a previous Instructor). She really helped me with my confidence whilst being on the road, couldn't recommend her enough.

Kate was amazing
My experience with Kate was amazing, she always found availability for you if you were unable to attend your scheduled lesson. She always made me feel comfortable and was easy to talk to and gave helpful tips which made me a batter driver. She helped me with building up my confidence and making me feel comfortable and safe on the road. The LDC workbook helped me reflect and understand what I needed to work on for each lesson and set goals I wanted to achieve on the next lesson. It also had helpful information on the rules of the road and useful tips to use when driving. Overall my experience with Kate was amazing and I definitely recommend working with Kate and LDC to achieve becoming a confident and safe driver!

Brilliant instructor
I enjoyed my lessons with Kate, she took me on the best routes on lessons to suit my skill level. She is a brilliant Instructor who doesn't put pressure on you and helps throughout everything. The LDC workbook is a great help as well as you are able to write down what you struggle with and then improve the next lesson, within the book it also gives you all the information needed to pass your test, Because of Kate I passed first time!!

Kate thank you so much, you have been amazing and I couldn't have passed first time without you. I've had a few instructors, and by far you have been the best, most patient and intuitive to how I learn best, allowing me to pass with just 3 minors. I'm going to recommend you to anyone who asks. Thank you so much.

Kate has been an absolutely fantastic driving Instructor, exactly what I wanted, She was calm, patient and explanatory. Even though I had a gap for three months travelling, she was able to catch up with me six weeks before my test. Would recommend to anyone, especially if they find driving scary or were hesitant like me :)

When I first started my lessons (and even before) I was extremely nervous, but Kate was amazing at helping me to relax and feel safe while driving. Not only were her lessons structured in a way that it's easy to easy to see how far you've developed and focus on areas you've struggled with' but they were also very enjoyable. By the end I was able to pass my test first time and I'd recommend Kate as a teacher to anyone, especially people who are nervous about driving! Thank you so much Kate, I'm really grateful for all your support!

I've passed 1st time after only 23 hours of lessons (having never driven before)! I would highly recommend Kate to anyone looking for a kind and professional instructor. The LDC workbook was really useful to brush up on details and allowed me to really concentrate on getting more driving experience during my lessons.

Kate was a really good driving instructor, really calm and allows you to go at your own pace with what you are comfortable with. She makes you feel relaxed and pushes you to the best of your ability, whilst still making you feel safe. The LDC system works really well and the workbook is really helpful, full of clear information to help you pass your test.

After struggling to make progress with another instructor, I decided to switch to Kate. She has been a really clear and patient instructor, helping me feel confident while driving. The LDC system meant that I could progress quickly, as I could learn different topics before the lesson, meaning I could make better use of the time in car. I've really enjoyed my lessons with Kate and I can't recommend her enough!

I started with Kate in April having never sat in a drivers seat before. We worked at a good pace so as not to over-phase me but to also ensure I was improving all every week. I have been very nervous about being on the roads but Kate really helped build my confidence and I just passed first time!

Kate is a very helpful and lovely instructor, she is very patient and calm and will make sure you understand everything. The LDC workbook is very helpful and teaches you a lot, especially helpful towards your theory. I would highly recommend doing your lessons with Kate, she is very helpful and without her support I don't think I would have passed first time.

Looking forward to being able to drive to my midwifery training!
I would highly recommend LDC, especially Kate to anyone who is looking to start driving! I purchased the LDC workbook they have and it was very informative and useful. I used the workbook between lessons to increase my knowledge and get better the next lesson and reflecting what I have done well/could do better. I enjoyed every lesson as there was always something new and could improve which motivated me to do even better to pass. Now that I have passed I can go and drive and enjoy my midwifery training at Bradford with my new Vauxhall Adams!

I started my lessons at the start of the year. Unfortunately COVID-19 disrupted this. My lessons were therefore canceled while it was not safe to be in a close environment. During this period I was always getting updated on the situation regarding my lessons from Kate. We resumed lessons once it was safe to do so and I always felt in a safe environment whilst in the car. COVID-19 did not get in the way of my progress during lessons and thankfully I passed my test first time. Kate put unbelievable time and effort to get me ready for my test in a short period of time. I would definitely recommend her to any new drivers.

Kate was amazing! I started my lessons before lockdown and managed to get an Emergency test as I’m classed as a key worker. Kate has so much patience and really helped me with the nerves. Would definitely recommend Kate to anyone wanting to learn to drive, she’s a star!

Georgia HairGeorgia Hair
Passed first attempt
Kate was an outstanding instructor and really helpful in getting me to pass my test first time. I started my lessons before lockdown and managed to get a test after. If I struggled to get something right Kate would show me what I needed to do in order to get it right. Her explanations when teaching are also really good. The workbook was also really helpful as I could “revise” how to drive and the explanations in there were really clear. The pictures really helped too.

Annie GreenwoodAnnie Greenwood
So pleased to have passed!
Kate was really helpful throughout the whole time I was learning. She always answers every question clearly which really helped. She was also good at showing me demonstrations of what to do which I found really helpful. Following passing my test we did a Motorway lesson, I can see how vital it is to have one, it's taught me show much. The workbook was really helpful, it was great for keeping track of what and needed to do and my overall progress.

Thank you Kate!
Kate was such a fantastic, patient Instructor and I couldn't have had a better coach. The lessons were always enjoyable and she always gave me positive feedback. Kate answered all my questions clearly and really gave me confidence. I will miss having lessons with her! The LDC system worked brilliantly for me- I used the workbook often, both during and between lessons. The DVD is helpful too, to review learning between lessons also. All in all, I've had a fantastic time learning how to drive with Kate and LDC and can't recommend her enough!

Kate made me feel at ease from the very first lesson and has helped me ever since. I didn't think that driving lessons could ever be something that I'd enjoy - but I have! The workbook was great for extra revision and Kate cleared up anything I was unsure of. Thank you Kate!

After having some lessons with another instructor and stopping for over a year, I was apprehensive about starting lessons again. However, I have really enjoyed my lessons with Kate. She helped me gain confidence and I felt like I had made progress after each lesson. Kate is friendly and approachable with any questions I had throughout my lessons. Thank you Kate!

1st time pass!
I came to Kate after having 10 hours with my first instructor and feeling like I wasn't getting anywhere. Kate was recommended to me by my friend and instantly I felt so much more comfortable with her. I couldn't have asked for a better instructor! We got on so well and her coaching methods were clear and thorough! I used the workbook and DVD's but found that the DVD's helped me more as I could visualise it better. I passed both my theory and practical tests, first time- all thanks to Kate!

Lauren DownsLauren Downs
Woo hoo I've passed first time!
My instructor Kate has been incredibly supportive throughout my learning to drive experience. Kate is very reliable and organised and without her i wouldn't have passed first time. The LDC system is useful to read through on a weekly basis so you have an idea what you are doing in the following lesson. I found the DVD's most useful for maneuvers.

Marie ClarkeMarie Clarke
Delighted with my first time pass!!
I've been delighted with my LDC Instructor Kate from start to finish. Her expertise and guidance has been fantastic. Always clear and concise, professional, yet makes every lesson a fun learning experience. The LDC system itself has been extremely informative and helpful in guiding me through the course, the workbook and DVD's have been such an added help- reflecting after the lessons, making notes and using the LDC method has ensured a successful test outcome first attempt for me. I would definitely recommend Kate and the LDC driving system to anyone. -Thanks for all your hard work and support Kate, I've thoroughly enjoyed your lessons and the whole process of learning such a valuable skill, which will literally be life changing for me. Thank you so much!!

Qiuck first time pass
Great experience overall, The LDC system combining workbook and DVD's worked well by improving my knowledge and I passed after just 20 hours of lessons. Kate was brilliant- really helpful in working with me to improve my driving in specific areas and knowledge to help and guide me along the way!

Emily TreeceEmily Treece
Kate helped me overcome my nerves and believe in myself
Kate was an excellent Instructor, really calm and encouraging which was exactly what I needed as a nervous driver (initially). The LDC workbook and DVD system have been really helpful for reinforcing learning outside of lessons and helping understanding before trying something new.

Kate was an amazing Instructor and I would recommend her to anyone starting driving lessons. I really liked the structured workbooks because they have lots of great information about the test and how to practice.

Can't wait to go car shopping!
I'd like to thank Kate so much! When I've been terrified to get behind the wheel Kate made me feel at ease and really helped build my confidence. I would definitely recommend her and already have done! The LDC learning system workbook and DVD's were great and helped a lot throughout my lessons and in preparing for my test. Thank you Kate!!

Holly WillsdonHolly Willsdon
Thank you Kate!
I swapped Instructors after 3 months of driving as I just felt like I wasn't progressing and if anything going backwards. I thought it was me! Kate has been AMAZING! I've rally enjoyed my driving with Kate, she built up my confidence immediately! The LDC learning system workbook and DVD's have been incredibly helpful- and I'd recommend Kate to absolutely everybody- I think a first time pass shows it! I feel she really helped me with my own worries, and worked for me as an individual and doesn't just stay by the book.

I can finally do the school run for my 4 kids by car!!
Kate was brilliant she gave me all the confidence to do it, I really can't thank her enough! I had a string of 7 fails 20 years ago and it destroyed my confidence and I gave up. My sister in law recommended Kate and we met up in June and discussed all the options and decided a one week pass course would be best once the kids were back at school as I am non stop with them. The LDC learning is really good - the workbook and DVD's came as part of the course and I found them really helpful and easy to understand. I can't believe I've passed and can finally do the school run by car!

James PoppletonJames Poppleton
1st time pass after 30 hour Intensive Course
Kate as an Instructor was fantastic. She gave clear instruction and guidance. Instruction was delivered calmly and allowed me to settle. I wouldn't have passed Intensively if not for Kate's tuition. The LDC Learning system workbook and DVD's were a valuable tool that allowed me to be confident while driving as it meant that I already had knowledge of subjects covered and the manoeuvres before beginning my Intensive Course. My theory was already passed before the course.

Kate is a very professional yet personal driving Instructor, she helped me get out on the road through gaining my confidence and with lots of positive improvement my confidence grew, now I am absolutely delighted to have passed my test, I'm going car shopping tomorrow! Thank you Kate :)

Josh HaighJosh Haigh
Delighted to pass
I did a 20 hour midway course with Kate following 23 hours with LDC Instructor Cath Crowther. I would recommenced Kate of LDC to anyone, as she is very friendly and supportive and helped with anything I struggled with. The LDC training system is great at explaining in detail every aspect of driving along with the workbook that describes every part of the lessons I had. I found the whole experience very informative, which prepared me for the standard of driving the test centre expects. overall it's been a brilliant experience and I am so pleased to have passed!

Chris GreenChris Green
Passed 1st time!
I did the 30 hour semi-Intensive course with the LDC Learning System-workbook plus theory and practical test DVD's. I found the theory work very helpful compared to other resources available, enabling me to get 50/50 and 65/75 on my test. The Instructional practical DVD's were very useful and informative and used alongside with the workbook complemented the lessons perfectly, saving time and making the lesson more comfortable for me I felt. Kate was a very good Instructor who explained all aspects of the lessons thoroughly and provided clear answers to any of the questions I might have had. Having only had a few hours of lessons 8 years previously I could tell the difference straight away in the level of training.
