A good friend is looking for a driving instructor after her last one packed up his Kiwi BBQ and moved to Scotland hehe

Anyway, she's a fairly nervous sounding learner so is looking for any recommendations on a good instructor who can cope well with a nervous adult learner.

I told her I knew just the bunch to ask... any recommendations appreciated.

Actual on road. She tried to learn a number of years ago but gave up after a 'scare' but since then Kiwi has taken her out a number of times to get her going again.

I'm sort of hoping he may even pop in and give a better view of what she needs smile

Vicky Lovell is very good, an instructor called lewis taught me how to drive and is very good, he is a proper petrol head and has done advanced driving courses.

A guy i know in Camberley that lives down my road is very good, the company (franchise) is KISS. He promises to teach you to drive, not to just pass the test. He's quite old school.
My lad just passed first time and apparently had one of the most difficult examiners.
I'll dig out his number if you need it.

Vicky taught my eldest, Lewis is teaching my youngest.
