Fantastic experience: David is one of the best driving instructors I've known. He is a calm and careful driver as well as an inspire instructor. After 12 lessons, I am so confident to drive by myself and passed a driving test in Dun Laoghaire last week. He always listened to my issues and introduced some tips to practice and help me overcome my fear and improve my driving skills. I was so eager for a new adventure on the road at every lesson. Besides the lesson time, he is very responsive to giving advice on all the questions you have around safe driving, road rules, and solutions for your driving issues. I highly recommend David as your instructor for the first driving time. More important than just passing the driving test, you will feel independent and confident to control a car and drive safely.

Fantastic experience: Ten minutes in the car was all I needed to conclude that Dave was the perfect instructor for me. Every lesson we did, he created created a chill atmosphere so I never felt under pressure. And even though I had a year's driving experience, I still learned tonnes from him which made me a more skilled and safer driver. One time he wasn't sure of the answer to a question I had, so he went and asked some driving examiners he knew and came back next week with the answer, he made sure that he would not mislead me which I can hugely appreciate. You really can't go wrong with choosing Dave as your instructor.

He was always very encouraging, and supportive, making me feel comfortable with my driving. He was always very patient with me and and sympathetic. If I had any question he would always find an answer and the best way to explain it to me so that l'd understand it. At the end of each lesson he would also go over what we learned on the day making sure I was definitely taking/learning something from every lesson. I had my driving test today and pass it, first time, and couldn’t be happier and more thankful for all his coaching. Thank you once again David.
