Beginning to drive was a very nervous prospect for me and the thought of having any kind of influence on other people´s safety on the roads was a large part of the reason why I had put it off. I approached Julie on personal recommendation from a friend of my mother´s whose two children had both passed with her. Throughout my instruction Julie was very patient in dealing with my anxieties and was happy to let me take a step back when I needed to while also being happy to push me when I needed it. Particularly with accelerating, if I had been left to my own inclinations I doubt we would ever have got above 30mph but Julie gave me the feeling of security I required to do so.
I feel much more confident and comfortable in the car now than I had expected to be for the amount of time I´ve been driving and I can attest that Julie has been a major factor in helping me get to this point. Now that I´ve passed, I intend to ask her if she can spare just a bit of time to help me with the motorway!
