I have and will continue to recommend you as an instructor to anyone learning to drive as I am not sure I would have passed my test so successfully at 38 weeks pregnant (!) if it weren't for your teaching.
Robert Fullarton - motorway lessons: I had a fright on my first time on a motorway and avoided them for months before trying to find some help.
It really restricted my every day life and where I could apply for a job.
After doing three lessons with Helen, I was on the motorway on my own and it felt great!

Q: What is a provisional license?
A: Before taking driving lessons on Britain's roads, you must first have applied for and obtained a provisional driving license.
You can find out more details and apply on the Government website.
Q: Can I learn to drive with my mum or dad?
A: Lots of people have their first driving lesson with their mum or dad and most generally find it to be a hair-raising experience!
While you can drive with any adult over the age of 21 who has held their full UK driving license for over three years, it is recommend by the DSA that new learners choose a qualified instructor for their lessons.
