” Learning to drive with Judie was such a good experience. I always felt comfortable in my lessons and was provided with all the resources plus more that I needed to not only pass my test but, feel confident as a driver. Through Drive Safe 4 Life Academy I was able to pass my test first time and therefore I recommend her to first time drivers and anyone looking for an instructor to help them better their driving skills. Judie is so kind and patient, I couldn’t have asked for a better instructor. I now feel prepared and confident to navigate the roads safely by myself thanks to Drive Safe 4 Life Academy. Thank you again Judie for everything and helping me pass my test xx ”

Learning with Judie was an amazing experience, she is so kind and ensures you are comfortable throughout your lessons. I started as a total beginner and from day 1 knew that her methods and ways of teaching will help me pass 1st time ( which I thankfully did ). It has been an amazing journey with drivesafe4life and I have recommended her to my friends. Judie doesn’t just teach you skills on the road but life lessons that you can take with you throughout your journey. Her lessons have allowed me to be truely confident on the road and ensure my safety in all aspects ”

” “I learnt to drive with Judie and could not have wished for a better instructor. I felt comfortable right away. Judie is a fantastic teacher, knowledgeable, kind, patient, supportive, caring (and fun!) always giving me useful advice and tips to improve my driving skills. I knew nothing about practical driving when I started and she gave me the confidence to progress steadily and pass first time! I am so grateful for her lessons behind the steering wheel and off. Judie has been a radiant blessing to me and I couldn’t recommend her enough ”
