“After having taken an eight year pause from my pursuit of learning to drive, I was naturally very cautious about returning back behind the wheel, all of which quickly dissipated shortly after taking lessons with Judie after she was referred to me by a friend.
I found that Judie’s instruction methodology focused more on ensuring that I was assured in my decision making whilst out on the road and thus could develop into a confident driver far beyond passing my test. Being someone who frequently struggles with anxiety this approach proved vital for me, as outside of all the textbook knowledge that comes with learning to drive, being adaptable to the ever changing conditions on the road and being self-assured in knowing you are making the correct and more importantly safest decision in any given scenario is a far more invaluable metric. Which I was able to acquire by consistently having lessons on unfamiliar roads beyond the scope of my local area or test centre. This coupled with Judie’s ability to break things down simply, and precisely tailor her teachings to address a student’s problem areas made for very value driven learning experiences.
For these reasons I’m more than happy to recommend Judie to anyone who is not only serious about learning to drive, but crucially who after passing their test wants to be left feeling assertive in their abilities and ready to be on the road without assistance”
