Driven before?

So you’ve got some experience. How did you learn? With your parents, friends or another instructor. Did you have an unhappy experience, got SHOUTED at, had sarcastic remarks made at you, did they get angry because you didn’t understand the task?
Our instructors are patient and friendly and will structure your lessons to suit your needs, Remember if you don’t understand your instructor will use other methods. It’s your time and money so use it – do not just accept it.
