🚗👊 FIRST TIME TEST PASS- ONLY 2 FAULTS!! 🚗👊
So, the year ends as it began- with another happy pupil celebrating their FIRST TIME test pass!
This time it's congratulations to the amazing Gemma B from Orpington who smashed her automatic driving test today, 17th December 2024, first time with only 2 driving faults!
Gemma has had to work so, so hard to get to test standard, so this is a well- deserved reward for her.
Initially, everything was really difficult for her. Steering, controlling her pressure on the pedals, coordination, planning- you name it, it was a battle.
But slowly, slowly, Gemma grew in confidence and ability. Suddenly driving didn't seem quite as difficult, quite so demanding.
Our first test date came a little too quickly though, so we pushed it back, and in the meantime, Gemma blossomed into a lovely little driver. 🚗
Steering ✅, use of the pedals ✅, coordination ✅, planning ✅, everything else ✅✅✅✅✅.
Well done Gemma- we've had a blast!! 💥

🔥🔥🔥SECOND TIME TEST PASS- ONLY 1 FAULT🔥🔥🔥
The hugest of congratulations to the lovely Michelle Z who passed her automatic driving test today 9th December 2024 at West Wickham, Bromley at the second attempt with just the 1 fault.
I was quite surprised when Michelle didn't pass first time a few weeks ago, and while she actually drove a really good test then, she made an error serious enough to cause herself a problem.
She put that disappointment behind her, regrouped, and was even more determined today.
Michelle always had an idea on what she wanted to improve in her driving, so teaching her was a relatively easy process.
I always enjoyed the driving lessons with her, and her driving development was shown today with an examiner who was really happy to have had such a good drive.
I'll see you soon for the motorway lesson.

Huge congratulations to Kirstie L from Orpington, who breezed through her automatic driving test today 3rd December 2024 FIRST TIME and with only 2 driving faults.
This was an extremely well- deserved pass today, as Kirstie has been so dedicated to her learning and development.
Initially it was quite hard work for Kirstie, and my biggest job was trying to get across to her that her foot didn't always need to be doing something- that there were times when she didn't have to be braking or accelerating, and could just let the car/ momentum/ the gradient do the work for her.
Once she got more control of her right foot, she then made steady progress all the way through.
Kirstie was so determined to pass, that she even requested additional lessons in the build up to the driving test. While I wasn't sure that they were absolutely needed, Kirstie felt that for her confidence that they would really help.
With additional private practice with her dad, the test day then didn't seem so daunting and she showed a really lovely drive to the examiner.
Well done Kirstie- a fabulous achievement!

👊 FIRST TIME TEST PASS- JUST 3 FAULTS!! 🚗👊
Another wonderful FIRST TIME test pass for the amazing Rebecca H from Orpington who sailed through her automatic driving test today 4th November 2024 with only 3 driving faults!
Rebecca came to me after trying manual for a couple of lessons but not really getting on with it.
There was a real lack of confidence and belief that driving was going to be an achievable aim so, as I say on many occasions, the vast majority of my work was on developing her mental approach while improving her driving skills and awareness.
Rebecca was an absolute delight to teach- she allowed me to push/ cajole/ encourage her along even when she was feeling really nervous..
And then we got to the mock tests, and she turned to ice- no matter what I threw at her, it didn't phase her in the slightest, even when we had nervous tears before or during one or two of the mocks.
And then, this morning, absolute calm and composure- what an absolute superstar you have been!

💥👏💪FIRST TIME TEST PASS- JUST 1 FAULT💪👏💥
I am so pleased to be able to congratulate Giovana P from Orpington who breezed through her automatic driving test today 29th October 2024 FIRST TIME with just 1 driving fault.
Gio came to me with previous driving experience from her native Brazil, but she took to driving here really well.
A lot of the work I did was just on getting Gio to manage her general control of the car a little tighter, and to prepare her for the test nerves we knew she would experience.
Even with her previous experience, she was hugely willing to listen to any constructive criticism I may have, or ways she could develop her driving style to make life easier for herself.
With a baby being very imminent we were fortunate to get a test date that worked for us in terms of timescale of being ready, but also before the baby arrived.
Gio- you have been SO much fun to teach and spend time with- I can't wait to see the baby picture when she arrives 👶

🔥🔥🔥FIRST TIME TEST PASS- ONLY 3 FAULTS 💪💪💪
Another huge well done, this time to Natalie C from Bromley who passed her automatic driving test today 24th October 2024 FIRST TIME with just 3 driving faults.
Just like her sister, Natalie had a really good feel for driving, right from the very start.
But she coupled this natural driving ability with consistency in her lessons, and a real determination to develop and improve her driving skills every single time she got into the car.
She made it so easy for me to keep pushing her into more difficult situations, until sometimes she was choosing for herself the most tricky option just to keep herself improving.
She was also fortunate enough to be able to do some private practice with Dad (thank you!), which also hugely helped.
This test pass will really help Natalie with her day- to- day life as she has a bit of a commute to and from work each day, starting work early too.
Well done Natalie- it has been an absolute pleasure.

💪🔥💥FIRST TIME TEST PASS- ZERO FAULTS 💥🔥💪
An amazing well done to the lovely Geeta P from Orpington who absolutely smashed her automatic driving test today 10th October 2024 FIRST TIME with no faults to record- the perfect drive.
Geeta helped me to my 5th clean sheet of the year with a super, calm, assured drive which the examiner really appreciated being the first test of the day.
So, Geeta came to me with a little bit of baggage. Having been involved in a couple of car crashes as a child, she had developed a real fear of driving- even being a passenger in the car caused her anxiety.
So, I spent as much time trying to get into her head, and calm those thoughts, as I did teaching her how to drive.
Fortunately Geeta was so, so determined to do this, for herself and for her family, and she made steady progress throughout our time together.
We even made little tweaks in the mocks, to get her more mentally focused on her processes, rather than being concerned about what 'may' go wrong during the test.
In the end, nothing to worry about with a wonderful drive.
Thank you for being such a good pupil Geeta- I'll miss our Thursday morning lessons!

Massive, massive congratulations to the amazing Lucy C who passed her automatic driving test today 24th September 2024 FIRST TIME with only 6 driving faults at West Wickham, Bromley.
Initially, I was asked to see Lucy on a one- off occasion as there were issues that led to a belief that Lucy may not be able to drive. Well, at the end of that session I firmly believed that passing her driving test was definitely an achievable aim.
Thankfully, we both hit it off together (I'm not sure I've ever had more random conversations and giggles with anyone as I had with you), and all the way through the learning process, Lucy was engaged and determined to improve.
Slowly, steadily, surely, Lucy's driving progressed, until she actually realised herself that she could do this!
We had a little wobble last week, but again she came back strongly and even more focused, and we had the best drive yesterday, leading into today's pass.
Lucy- soooooperstar!!!

Cherry has been with me for a little while and has had to work tremendously hard to get her skills, and more importantly, her consistency to the necessary level.
The effort and commitment Cherry has put in has been amazing, particularly when she has 3 young children, and a full time (pressurised) job. 👏👏👏
You should be super proud of yourself Cherry. While this may not have been your first test, but sometimes there is just as much pleasure in seeing a pupil pass who has had to work harder than most to achieve that license!
Well done again- I'm amazingly proud of you!

Huge congratulations to Kimberley B-H from Bromley who passed her automatic driving test at the second attempt with no faults at all!!
Kimberley has been great to teach. She came to me with lots of driving experience, and a willingness to take on board any thoughts I had on developing and improving her driving.
While this was Kimberley’s second test, she had been remarkably unfortunate not to have passed on the first occasion, but she went away, dusted herself down and came back even more determined.
With an exam to take later on today, that’s one thing ticked off on this big day ✅ ✅ ✅

Massive congratulations to Lottie R from Orpington who obliterated her automatic driving test on Friday 26th July 2024 FIRST TIME with a hugely impressive ZERO FAULTS.
Lottie has been an absolute pleasure to teach- bright, bubbly, fun. She took to driving really well, and coped with everything I threw at her for a period of time.
But as the lessons grew in complexity, with more complex junctions/ traffic conditions, she stalled for a period of time and I did A LOT of moaning (she calls it)/ encouraging (I call it 😬).
I just knew that there were another couple of levels she was capable of hitting on her driving and her independence of thought. Finally, after a bit of a more forceful conversation, all of a sudden, ‘there she was!!’
And she kicked on during her mock tests, and waltzed her way through the practical.
Lottie, you have been great fun to teach, and I will miss the bizarreness of some of our conversations. What a fab young lady- now go and smash your future career!
(Huge thanks also to #letstorquedriving (Adam) for covering the test day for me, when my flight to go on holiday was changed. Superstar!!)

Huge congratulations to Lola A of Orpington who passed her automatic driving test today 25th July 2024 FIRST TIME with just 6 driving faults! 👏
After a difficult first lesson (admittedly in the dark and rain), Lola then proceeded to make really good progress with her driving development. 🔥🔥
She was keen to get the lessons done and dusted, and this acted as a great incentive to get her driving skills as high as possible.
We even went through a period where we slowed the lessons down to ensure that she wasn't doing more lessons than she needed, and then picked back us as we got closer to the driving test.
With the benefit of private practice with mum and dad (thank you for that), and even with a horrible wobble at the very beginning of the test, I was never in doubt that she would pass, and she did just that.
Well done Lola- if only we could get the sun to shine, then your world would be complete 😂😂😂

A massive well done to Fran M from Orpington who blasted through her automatic driving test today 23rd July 2024 FIRST TIME accruing just 3 driving faults.
Fran took to driving really well, and applied herself in the learning process in the same way, that I have come to learn, that she applies herself to everything- she takes it on, works as hard as she possibly can, and gets great results.💪💪💪
Fran, I am firstly most impressed with your incredible work ethic- you are driven, hard working, with a great sense of family, and a sparkling personality- what an amazing young lady. 🔥🔥🔥
Even though you took to driving well, you still gave every lesson your absolute all, but were wise enough to not rush to test when it would have clashed with exams at school.
You wanted to take the driving test only once, and that's exactly what has happened.
Here's to a summer of being a taxi 🚕to everyone, but exploring and adventures with friends too- enjoy the freedom this brings to you.
Thanks also to your family for the private practice, and giving you as much time behind the wheel as possible. A huge team effort. 👏

Amy came to me with previous driving experience, but with little confidence.
But her confidence and her ability developed slowly but surely, and was hugely helped by the commitment she showed to develop and improve her driving skills.
With some private practice, and a ‘deadline day’ mindset, over the last few week Amy progressed hugely and was fully deserving of her pass today

Guilan has had to work incredibly hard to get to test standard, and we actually postponed one test as we just didn’t feel she could make consistently good decisions. 😕
It was a strange learning experience for Guilan, as due to her work patterns, we would see each other every day for a week, and then not do another lesson for 6 or 7 weeks, so it was hard to build that natural learning rhythm.
She has been amazing though over this last week, and apart from a last minute wobble 😬, she eased her way through with a lovely drive.
Super proud of you Guilan 🚗

I am so pleased to be able to say that Lorraine R from Orpington passed her automatic driving test today 27th June 2024 at the FIRST attempt with just 1 driving fault!
Lorraine came to me with plenty of driving experience from driving in America, and more recently in Germany.
While this was great that I didn't have to teach her to drive, we had to do a lot of work on making sure she was positioned correctly (the kerb was a bit of a magnet for a while 🤦♂️), and just within her general driving working on her anticipation and planning so that the whole drive was planned and smooth.
Even with her wealth of previous experience, Lorraine was always happy to take constructive criticism, and made continued progress until this week when her driving went to a whole new level.
I'm so pleased for you, and that you can look to getting a car for your family- I can't wait to see you, and wave at you, on the road!

Huge, huge congratulations to the amazing Annabel E from Bromley who absolutely smashed her automatic driving test today 17th June 2024 at the first attempt with just 2 driving faults!
It has been a bit of a process with Annabel, as she has had serious confidence issues, and a real feeling that driving probably wasn't for her.
We stuck with it through the good and the difficult lessons, and my whole role as her instructor was to try to push enough confidence into her that we could go to test.
Today she gave a calm, assured drive (albeit a little slow at times), but gave herself the chance to show off her driving skills.
Annabel always under- estimated her ability, and my belief in her, right up to the moment the examiner gave her the good news.
Annabel- it has been an absolute pleasure, and I'm so proud of you. You fully deserved this!

I am delighted to be able to congratulate Dilly R from Orpington who smashed her automatic driving test FIRST TIME (with me) today 28th May 2024 with only 2 driving faults.
Dilly came to me after being unsuccessful elsewhere in a manual car, and both her and her instructor had thought that maybe doing automatic may be the way forward.
I could see straightaway that she could drive, but her nerves were causing her to rush into situations and she was making life so unnecessarily difficult for herself.
All of my work has been on getting Dilly to first of all be kind to herself (she's her own worst critic) but to also help her to deal with the nerves and the occasion of the test day.
While she was still nervous today, we were happy that they weren't overwhelming her, and she had a lovely pre- test drive.
Could she continue that into her actual test- yes she could! I sat in the back, and there wasn't even a flicker of a chance that she wasn't nailing this today.
What an absolute pleasure to teach you Dilly- you've been a star ⭐

Massive congratulations to Izzie C who passed her automatic driving test today 23rd April 2024 at Bromley first time with no faults at all- the perfect pass!!
Izzie has been absolutely brilliant to teach. She has smiled her way through the learning experience, even on days when things didn’t go as well as hoped.
Right from the start I could see Izzie as a driver, but learning to drive for her wasn’t without its challenges. Driving after a long day at school, and keeping her concentration levels high definitely made her experience more difficult.
But one day, we had a breakthrough. And from then on, we were able to adapt the way she learnt, and she went from strength to strength. 💪💪💪
As she progressed, we thought her test date was coming a little too soon, so we were able to swap dates with another pupil, and this gave Izzie that extra few weeks to build her consistency level.
In that time she really kicked on, and kept producing really solid drives, with just the odd mistake. 👊👊👊 Today though, another level- examiner pleased, me pleased, but most of all, Izzie pleased. 👏👏👏
Izzie- well done. A superb, deserved result 😀 Now to start driving yourself to and from school!! I will see you on the road!

It has been a bit of a (fun) journey with Mimi. From being a complete novice, but very nervous and unsure of herself as a driver, to a fantastically capable (but still unsure of herself 😬) driver.
My biggest job has always been to try to get Mimi to see the positives📈 in her development, not just the bits that didn’t go as well as we had hoped.
Mimi has been great company, and I have always looked forward to the lessons (not just because of the extremely tasty home- made cookies 🍪🍪🍪I would receive every lesson), but I always knew that we would have good and interesting conversations, and that she would challenge me with my positivity vs her critical self- analysis.
(As an aside, I have just realised that the cookies 🍪 could be delivered straight to my door now- there’s a thought to consider Mimi!!!)
You can also stop watching YouTube videos of driving tests in Bromley now….
Mimi- thank you for being such a great pupil. I am genuinely going to miss you, but I look forward to doing some additional work when you get your own car. Well done again. 👏

👊 FIRST TIME TEST PASS- JUST 2 FAULTS!! 🚗👊
Congratulations to the amazing Natalie T from Orpington who smashed her automatic driving test today 28th March 2024 FIRST TIME with only 2 driving faults, and a pleased examiner.
When we started the driving lessons last year, I think it's fair to say that Natalie thought this may be an unattainable target.
She had huge anxiety issues about driving, and so little confidence in her own ability.
Over time we were able to reduce her anxiety to the point where she could begin to really develop her independent driving skills.
We had some hiccups along the way, and actually postponed her original test date as she just didn't have the self- belief at that time, but just a few weeks later, and thanks to her always improving mock test results, her confidence rocketed.
We came up with some ways on how she could control the test situation, rather than being swept along by it, and boy did she do that today.
Natalie, we have laughed and cried during lessons (you externally, and me internally 😂😂😂), and had some fab chats. I will honestly miss you, but so excited to see the new car, and how life will become soooooo much easier for you.
Well done you!

Massive congratulations to Ashley D from Bromley who absolutely smashed his automatic driving test today 18th March 2024, passing FIRST TIME with only 1 driving fault.
This is a huge achievement as when I started with Ash he was hugely anxious about whether he'd be ever be able to drive. I think over the years that the idea had become bigger and bigger, until it seemed unattainable.
I was quickly able to see a driver hidden in there though, and by making the lessons more chatty, and more relaxing, we were able to tackle and achieve the harder topics.
Today mate, you have made me so proud. Life changing for you.

I am so pleased for Tom as he has worked so hard over the last few months to improve his driving.
When I first met Tom, he had tried manual lessons and just hadn't clicked with it, so his confidence was a bit low with driving.
He consistently made progress during his lessons with me, but there was always another level I felt he could go to.
After a frustrating mistake on his first test, amongst an otherwise great drive, Tom regrouped and came back more determined, resulting in such a wonderful pass.

For the most part Huimin progressed really nicely, and took to the manoeuvres really, really well- her reverse bay parking is amazingly brilliant!
We had some nerves this week, and before the test today, but with some deep breathing and the trusty drink, the examiner ended by commenting what a progressive drive it was.

Isobel has been an absolute pleasure to teach. She has coupled her natural driving ability with a really good work ethic and a desire to improve her driving every time she got into the car.
The only aspect she has found challenging was roundabouts- a common difficulty for novice drivers, but she worked really hard on them too, and was fortunate to be able to add in private practice to hone her skills.
Today wasn't any kind of surprise for me as I knew she was more than capable of passing the test.

An early Christmas present today 5th December 2023 for Rui W from Orpington who passed her automatic driving test at the FIRST TIME of asking with an accomplished drive in challenging conditions.
Rui will be the first to admit that she didn't begin as a natural driver, and has had challenges all the way through to today.
There have been times when we have had to have difficult conversations, and postponed a test when we just thought that she needed more time.
Over the last few weeks she has really shown what she can do. Her driving is so much more assured, with better planning and decision making, and her manoeuvres, particularly the reverse bay parking, is up there with anything I have seen before from any pupil.
I am absolutely delighted with today's result Rui- thoroughly, thoroughly deserved and I can't wait to see you out there on the road- I know this will make life so much easier with a young family.

The hugest of congratulations to Milly P from Orpington who smashed her automatic driving test today 8th November 2023 at the 2nd attempt with just 1 driving fault.
It would be fair to say that Milly has had a long and winding journey to get to this point. She started with manual, then came to me for automatic, and with Covid, retaking the theory test, and a licence issue, coupled with the disappointment of not passing on the first occasion, it felt that today may not come.
However, Milly got a short notice test, and even with us not having seen eachother for 8 months, we hit it hard over the last few days, and I think it actually benefitted her as there was less time to worry.
Milly, you have made me laugh multiple times on every single lesson, and it would be fair to say that you will be unforgettable.
I am so proud of you for the calm, composed drive you put in today, leaving me , the examiner, and your dad hugely pleased and proud.
See you on the road!!

The test has been a long time coming for Daniel whose learning was interrupted by Covid and then struggling with the theory test due to his learning needs. To help with this we turned to Chris Benstead of Theory Test Explained who provided much needed 1-2-1 support and helped navigate the tricky system of gaining additional help on the test day,
Once the Theory Test was passed, we applied straightaway for the practical test and built towards it.
Daniel worked so hard to develop his skills, and a huge shout out to his dad Dennis who provided Daniel with so much additional practice on the road- it really made the difference.
So, a whole team effort with this test pass, but most of the credit to Daniel for his sheer determination to get on the road!.

I wasn't at all surprised with this, and told Katie earlier this week that she should be challenging herself on how WELL she could pass, rather than IF she could pass.
Katie was a real natural at driving and picked everything up straightaway. With additional driving time with her dad, who gave her plenty of hours of private practice, it was easy to put her forward for a test when she was offered one at short notice.
She absolutely breezed through it today, and the examiner enjoyed the drive too!
Now to get the car Katie and get yourself out on the road!
🎉🎉Congratulations again 🎉🎉

🚗👊 SECOND TIME TEST PASS- JUST 4 FAULTS!! 🚗👊
Congratulations to Shan S from Orpington who achieved success at the second time of asking today 5th September 2023 with just 4 driving faults in her automatic driving test.
I am so pleased for you Shan, as your learning to drive journey hasn't always been the easiest.
Initially Shan was really nervous and this showed in her having a really hard right foot, particularly when braking, so our first task was to get that foot lighter and softer.
While this took a little bit of time, and was always lurking in the background, Shan then began to make steady progress in other areas.
By the time we came to her first test, she was driving beautifully, and I know I was amazed when she didn't achieve success on that occasion.
We were fortunate in being able to get another test reasonably quickly, and today she put in the drive I knew she could do under pressure, and got the well- deserved pass.
Shan, it has been an absolute pleasure teaching you- now get your car and get out there!

👏💥 FIRST TIME PASS- ONLY 4 FAULTS!! 👏💥
Another wonderful 'feel- good' pass for me.
Well done to Riley H from Swanley on passing your automatic driving test FIRST TIME today 31st August 2023!
Riley has been brilliant to teach- really good fun, a great guy to chat to.
While initially learning to drive was a bit of a struggle, and we had to apply some unorthodox teaching/ learning strategies, which were a great learning curve for me, slowly, slowly, Riley began to develop.
And then, all of a sudden- he could drive! Sometimes I praised him into submission, sometimes I moaned him into submission, but he was always willing to take on board any constructive criticism, while putting his own humourous side to it.
Thanks also to Ian, the examiner, who was absolutely brilliant with him- it is very much appreciated.
Again, well done Riley- you absolutely deserve this.

👏💥 SECOND TIME PASS- ONLY 5 FAULTS!! 👏💥
The hugest of 'well- done's' to Jonathan P who passed his automatic driving test at Bromley today 23rd August 2023 at the 2nd attempt with only 5 driving faults.
On his 1st test, just a few weeks ago, Jonathan only got 1 fault, but made a horrible decision right at the end which cost him the pass we thought he was going to get.
He managed to shrug off the disappointment and came back to claim his full licence.
When I started lessons with Jonathan, he had had a few instructors in a short space of time who he hadn't connected with.
Happily we hit it off, and formed a great working relationship an he has become one of my all- time favourite pupils.
Good luck on the road JP- you're going to be fine!

Another fabulous automatic test pass at the FIRST ATTEMPT today 3rd August 2023 for Rebecca B from Orpington who breezed through the test with just 2 driving faults.
Rebecca and myself have had an interesting learning experience with a couple of stops and starts, but right from the beginning, the biggest issue we had was getting Rebecca to believe that she could actually pass the test!
She had the motivation and the determination to do the driving, but the confidence in her own ability just wasn't there.
So most of my job has been on trying to change her mindset and approach to the driving test.
It has been an absolute pleasure to spend time with you, and I can't wait to see you on the road!

Massive, massive congratulations to the amazing Amelia P from Bromley who passed her automatic driving test today 2nd August 2023 at the second attempt with only 2 driving faults.
Amelia knows that she should have passed first time, but one decision right at the end of the test where she made an incorrect judgement, cost her.
We have worked hard to make her decision making even better, and she absolutely breezed through the test today.
Amelia has been wonderful to teach. As she is deaf, I was initially concerned on how we were going to be able to communicate clearly enough to keep her safe on the road. I needn't have worried- we sorted any issues out very early on, and I learnt to be more precise with the clarity of my speech, and the information that was being given.
I have loved teaching you Amelia, and I can't wait to see you on the road!

Congratulations to the fab Beth W from Bromley who passed her automatic driving test today 5th July 2023 at West Wickham, Bromley FIRST TIME with just 4 driving faults.
When I first saw Beth a few months ago, she was able to already drive to a certain standard, but after a miserable experience with her previous instructor she massively lacked confidence in herself and her own ability.
Over a period of time, we built this up, even when lessons didn't go to plan, until today's fantastic showing gained her the well- deserved test pass.
Beth has had so much going on in her life recently, and I'm really happy that being able to drive will make life a little easier for you in the future. 😊

Another brilliant automatic driving test pass today 16th June 2023 for Frankie R from Swanley who passed FIRST TIME with only 1 driving fault.
Frankie came to me after learning in a manual, and had lots of great skills already.
My job was just to refine and develop his abilities, to ensure that he was keeping problems away from him (which the examiner picked up in his feedback at the end of the test) and not to rush into tricky situations.
Frankie- you have been such a pleasure to teach. I've really enjoyed getting to know you, although I could have done without the chat about the Southend Sausage Dog Convention (😂😂😂).
Good luck for the future- I'm sure you are going to be a success in everything you do.

Kristy came so, so close to passing her first test where one missed blind spot check cost her, which we were both gutted with.
She came back doubly determined to right that wrong, and could always be relied upon to give 100% to every lesson.
With some great chats along the way, Kristy was absolutely brilliant to teach and I'm amazingly proud of your performance today.
Now you can kick on with your exciting future!!

Massive congratulations to Michaela Z who passed her automatic driving test first time (with me) today 9th May 2023 in West Wickham, Bromley with only 6 driving faults.
Michaela came to me with previous driving experience and a couple of test experiences.
In the first lesson with her, I could see that she could drive but there were issues with her speed and position, caused largely by not looking far enough ahead, so she was always being reactive rather than proactive.
Fortunately Michaela agreed with my analysis, saying she knew that there were problems but that she hadn't been sure what they were or how to correct them.
From that moment onwards we have both worked really hard to address these issues, culminating in today's fabulous driving tests pass.
Michaela- thoroughly deserved after your hard work since we came together.
Well done!

Another great FIRST TIME automatic driving test pass today 4th May 2023- this time for Madhu R from Orpington who drove beautifully to pass with just 3 driving faults.
Madhu again came to me with some experience, but with an issue of driving slightly too fast, in slightly the wrong position.
This had a knock on effect into all areas of her driving.
We worked really hard on getting her foot to be subtle enough to make fractional differences to her speed, and once she had this cracked she then made really good progress with all elements of controlling the car over the last few weeks.
Madhu- you have been an absolute pleasure to teach, and I'm so pleased that you are now on the road.

Huge congratulations to Charlie S from Orpington on passing his automatic driving test today 2nd May 2023 at the FIRST attempt with only 3 driving faults!
It would be fair to say that Charlie and I have been on a bit of a journey together, and we have both learnt so much from the experience.
Charlie came to me with some previous driving experience, and access to his own car to practice in.
I could see that Charlie could drive, but there were lots of issues for us to solve based on the speed he was trying to drive at, and his ability to concentrate for sustained periods.
We have both worked so hard on developing these features, and bit by bit, with additional help from mum and dad, we found a way through with a mixture of telling/ cajoling/ adapting/ crying (just me Charlie? 🤪).
Through it all, Charlie has progressed and taken each knock back with good grace. He has never questioned what I was trying to get him to do, and with the fact that he is such a lovely lad, with a wicked sense of humour (again, was I laughing with you, or crying at the jokes), he has absolutely nailed it today.
Charlie- it's been a pleasure and an experience. Don't change matey.

It has been such a pleasure teaching Morris, as we have often shared conversations about the big issues in life- the qualities of pickled onion Monster Munch vs spicy Nik Naks being one.
It hasn't been plain sailing for Morris and he has had to work really hard to develop his skills. We were both a bit disappointed when the first test didn't go as planned, but Morris was able to dust himself down and reset.
This was helped by some private practice driving his young children on the weekend which has been a confidence booster.
Well done Morris- a fabulous result!

A fantastic FIRST TIME automatic driving test pass today 23rd March 2023 in Bromley for Sue L who breezed through it with only 4 driving faults.
Sue would be the first to say that the beginning of her learning to drive experience was fairly tough going. Initially she was very nervous, which resulted in her driving extremely slowly and being very forceful with the footbrake.
Over time, Sue grew in confidence and was able to drive confidently and with the appropriate amount of subtlety in her right foot.
This was massively helped by her amazing work ethic, where, between lessons she would watch lots of 'how to' videos, which made her more thoughtful and questioning, and able to back up the in- car experience.
Sue, I have loved teaching you to drive, and I can't wait to see a picture of the car you hope to buy.

Katie has been great to teach- always striving to improve, and always willing to listen to, and take on, constructive criticism.
Katie initially stated her learning to drive process really well, although generally drove too fast.
As we worked on her decision making, her speed dropped, which gave her more time to make better, well- thought out decisions, and her driving then continued to improve.
While she was a little nervous today, I kept on reminding her that she needed to control her thoughts and the driving would take care of itself- she did this very successfully and achieved the all- important driving test pass.

Huge, huge congratulations to my fantastic pupil James P from Swanley who absolutely smashed his automatic driving test today 30th January 2023 FIRST TIME with an awesome ZERO faults- not one mistake in his drive at all.
This is an amazing result, which accounts for a tiny, tiny percentage of pupils who pass their driving test.
The examiner was delighted with the calm authority of his driving on a Monday morning.
James was such a willing learner driver. He always took responsibility for his mistakes, although sometimes he was too hard on himself. We had early morning lessons before he started work, so I think we will both be grateful not to have to wake up so early on a Wednesday.
James- a wonderful, well- deserved result. With a young family, this will be life- changing for you. Now go and buy that car!!

Christmas congratulations to Hannah S who passed her automatic driving test today 22nd December 2022 FIRST TIME with just 1 driving fault in Bromley
I started seeing Hannah during the summer, and while she came to me with some limited experience, she had had a difficult start to her learning to drive experience, having already had 3 driving instructors before me.
So there was a bit of confusion in her driving, from having too many competing voices. My first job was to begin to get her to drive a little more slowly, and to have a consistent voice alongside her.
Once we achieved that, Hannah began to make great progress, culminating in her wonderful result today.
I am very, very proud of you, and so happy that you have had a good end to the year.

Both Gracie and I have been very unwell with a virus over the last few days, and Gracie in particular was feeling particularly poorly today. So much so that we considered not actually going.
I'm so glad that she had enough confidence in her ability to drag herself through. A postponement would have been very tough to take given that she was meant to take her test in September but it was cancelled due to the Queen's funeral.
Gracie was always a pleasure to teach- natural ability combined with a calm, relaxed approach to learning. You have been an absolute star- and what a lovely end to the year for you.

This is a hugely, well deserved test pass. I started seeing Sian during the summer, where we did 4 mornings in one week to really get up and running with her driving. She took to driving very well, and throughout was an absolute pleasure to teach.
Once her theory was passed we managed to get a test date a bit earlier than anticipated (thanks Sian's mum 👍), and then we were able to focus on developing Sian's driving to get the balance of trying to either be too progressive, or too cautious.
Once Sian relaxed on the most difficult parts of driving, she then was able to show off her ability and she absolutely sailed through her test today.
What a fab Christmas present to yourself!

Niamh has been so much fun to teach. She was recommended to me after having a difficult time with her first driving instructor and initially the driving lessons were all about me assessing her while also trying to rebuild her confidence.

You put everything into every single lesson, and huge thanks to your mum too for the additional time and practice in the family car- it massively helped.

Lucy came with previous driving experience in a manual car, but really lacked confidence in her own ability. This took a little while to come through in her general driving, and longer with the manoeuvres but once she did get that confidence, then she made rapid progress.
The mock tests that we did seemed to really help Lucy too, as she started to realise that she could drive independently and didn't need to me to help in any way.
What a lovely pass- well done again!

I've actually known Megan for a long time, so it was lovely being able to take her through the 'learning to drive process' although she did come with previous driving experience.
As with most learners, confidence was the biggest issue, and getting her self- belief nice and high.
Megan was always willing to be self- critical (usually too harshly), and we had to work on getting her to see her achievements as well as recognising the issues and improving them.
I've really enjoyed teaching you Megan- now life will hopefully get just a little bit easier with your driving licence in hand.

On the day of the test, I told her just to try to enjoy the test, as I thought it would be a once in a lifetime experience for her. She obviously took my words seriously, as in the words of the examiner, "You have not only passed your driving test, you have absolutely stormed it".
Now you can drive yourself and your siblings to school- I'm not sure who was more excited with the pass 🤔

Emma will be the first to say that we have had a bit of a journey together. When I first saw her, I could see her driving potential as she came with previous experience, but she had so little confidence in her own ability.
Most of the time together was spent with me counteracting her negative thoughts, and changing her mindset to a more positive one.
I am absolutely delighted with the test pass, even more so that her test date was changed at the last moment and put back 1 week, to a date where I was away on holiday. 😨😨😨
We called upon Lucy G (Lucy's Learners) to ask her to take Emma in my car to the test, and she very kindly adjusted her diary to be able to do so, so huge huge thanks to Lucy for doing that.

Congratulations to Linda R from Swanley who passed her automatic driving test today 29th March 2022 at the 3rd attempt with only 4 driving faults.
Linda initially had a very disrupted start to her learning to drive journey, with Covid issues. The plan had been for Linda to do an intensive course, but Lockdowns got in the way of that, so this has taken a lot longer than we had anticipated.
It's also not been an easy process for Linda, where she has had to fight for each bit of progress made, particularly focussing on her decision making, where we had to ensure she was making the correct decision all of the time, not just some or most of the time.
This was definitely the hardest part for her.
With a last minute test fail on her 2nd test, the pressure really was on today, but she absolutely sailed through.
I'm absolutely delighted for you Linda.

Massive, massive congratulations to Michael R from Orpington BR6 who passed his automatic driving test today 21st March 2022 FIRST TIME with only 3 driving faults!
I am so proud of you mate. We first started last Summer hoping to do a kind of intensive course, with a pass much earlier on. Unfortunately we hit a couple of obstacles with that idea, so unfortunately the driving experience became a little stop/ start.
With each break we had to do more work on Michael's mental approach to driving as there was a bit of a hang up, and he was far, far too hard on himself when he made a mistake.
Slowly, slowly we got that sorted, and the nerves didn't hit today as we expected them to- I think because Michael finally started to believe in himself and that passing the driving test was a viable result.
I am absolutely delighted for you- what a difference this will make to your life!
All the best to you and your fab family.

Congratulations to Charlotte F from Petts Wood, Orpington BR5 who today 14th March 2022 passed her automatic driving test at the second attempt with only 2 faults!
We were both so disappointed when Charlotte didn't pass her first test a couple of weeks ago with a mistake in the last couple of minutes.
Thankfully we were able to get a test date far quicker than we had imagined we'd be able to and Charlotte went and got a great result today.
Huge thanks also to mum and dad for all of the extra private practice- it always hugely, hugely helps.
Charlotte has been another great pupil (I seem to have been blessed over the last year). She always attended her lessons, never made excuses if things didn't go right, and always came out with a positive mental attitude.
Well done Charlotte- a well- deserved result!

👏👏 2ND TIME TEST PASS- ZERO FAULTS 👏👏
A huge well done to Amy S from BR1 Bromley who passed her automatic driving test today 11th March 2022 at the second attempt with ZERO faults- the perfect drive.
Amy has had to work really hard to develop her driving skills, and it hasn't always been the smoothest of progress. But Amy has always, always worked so hard during her driving lessons.
She was always prepared to work harder, to listen more, to think more carefully about her driving actions.
No more having to wake up at 5.30 in the morning to get public transport to work!
Well done Amy, what a wonderful test pass today.

👊💥FIRST TIME PASS- ONLY 3 FAULTS!! 👊💥
Another fantastic first time test pass today 25th February 2022, this time for Essa C from Petts Wood, Orpington who drove beautifully, passing her automatic driving test with only 3 faults!
Essa came to me with previous driving experience from driving in China, and having done some work with her husband.
The main issue we had was her speed and her discipline- being able to make the same (correct)consistent decision over and over again.
Once we got control of the speed, Essa was able to manage her decision making better. With some nagging about using her mirrors, we soon got test ready, and today she drove beautifully.
A great pass Essa- well done from your driving instructor Matt Shurmer.

Massive congratulations to Debbie P from Crockenhill, Swanley who today 24th February 2022 passed her automatic driving test FIRST TIME with only 2 faults!
Debbie has been a fabulous pupil to teach. While starting off with a lack of confidence, I was able to see straightaway that she had a natural ability to drive.
The biggest job I had was to get Debbie to believe that passing her driving test was achievable.
Even a little wobble yesterday wasn't able to shake you, and you had a very pleased examiner who commented on what a great drive you had given.
Well done Debbie from your driving instructor Matt Shurmer.

A huge well done to Alice S from Hextable, Swanley who today 16th February 2022 passed her automatic driving test FIRST TIME with only 3 faults!
I am incredibly proud of Alice, as she came to me early on in her driving journey, after having a less than ideal start with another driving school.
We had to work really hard to get her confidence and her self- belief up, while we were trying to develop her driving skills.
The last few months have been emotionally challenging for her, and there were days where she struggled, but she always stayed positive and determined.
I am not sure if I have laughed more with any other pupil before, and I will certainly miss the very random conversations we would have.
Well done Alice from your driving instructor Matt Shurmer.

Congratulations to Simon A from Sidcup who has just passed his automatic driving test today 8th February 2022 FIRST TIME and with only 1 fault- grrrrr, right at the very end too!
Simon came to me with some experience, albeit from a number of years ago, and I could immediately see that he was going to be fine.
While lacking confidence in some areas, he had a good understanding of how to drive and just needed some encouragement on developing his own style.
I am so, so pleased for you. With the new car on order, no more walking to work every day!
Again, well done mate- if only Spurs could play as well as you drive hey! 😂😂

Elle has been such a great pupil to teach. We have learnt, developed and laughed from the very first driving lesson, and Elle has put so much into her driving.
I would have been amazed if Elle hadn't have passed, and additional thanks to Sam for all of the additional practice.
The disappointment of the cancelled test just before Christmas was tough to come back from, but you have been absolutely brilliant.

I'm so pleased for Mirela as she has had to work so, so hard to develop her abilities. Her commitment has never been in question, as half way through her learning to drive process, she moved away when she got a new job. Since then, most weekends, Mirela has travelled back and forth to continue her driving lessons.
The last lesson yesterday was a bit of a tough one, but her mental strength got her over the line today. I couldn't be prouder!

I'm hugely delighted to say a massive well done to Ellie D who passed her automatic driving test today 28th January 2022 at Sidcup at the second attempt with only 4 driving faults. ⭐⭐⭐
Ellie has been so, so unlucky since she started learning to drive with having 6 tests cancelled due to lockdowns and examiners having Covid (we were actually at the test centre 3 weeks ago when her last one was cancelled).
It has taken a huge effort mentally for Ellie to keep lifting herself up after each cancellation.
Finally, finally Ellie. Well done for sticking with it, from your (very delighted) driving instructor Matt Shurmer. 🚗🚗🚗

Elaine was always ready to try to improve her skills, and to take on any issues I raised. An absolute model pupil.

John initially started with me back in May 2021, and came with some previous experience. We stopped and started a little due to the wait time for both the theory and the practical, but we picked up the driving lessons in the new year and with just a few hours John achieved this wonderful result.
With a newborn baby in the house, the pressure was on John to pass today, and I'm delighted that he did.

Emma has not found the driving experience to be the easiest, although she applied herself to the driving lessons diligently. initially starting with manual, and then coming to me for the automatic, a lot of my work has been on building her confidence and making her believe that she could actually achieve this fantastic result.
I think it may take a little while to sink in, but I'm so happy for you. You've had a lot going on recently, and now this is something less for you to focus on.

A huge well done to Aimee R from Petts Wood, Orpington BR6 on passing her automatic driving test today 20th December 2021 at the first attempt with only 2 faults.
Aimee has always put in as much effort as she possibly could into every single driving lesson, even on the ones which were harder work than others.
The biggest issue we had was getting her to believe that passing the driving test was an achievable option. With the benefit of some private driving with dad, everything really started coming together in the last to weeks as her driving really matured and she was making better/ correct decisions all of the time.
An absolute pleasure to teach- well done again from your driving instructor Matt Shurmer.

Well done to Anthony M from Petts Wood, Orpington on passing his automatic driving test today 15th December 2021 FIRST TIME with just 2 faults.
Anthony's primary concern when we started was that we 'got on' so we did a trial lesson. Fortunately we did hit it off, and Anthony progressed really quickly. 🚗🚗
Our biggest difficulty was the waiting times for both the theory and practical tests. This was made worse when, a few weeks ago, Anthony received an email the night before his driving test, postponing it until today.
He put aside his disappointment, and took it on the chin to put in a fantastic drive. He finished his test in the dark too, which was challenging.
A thoroughly deserved pass, and FINALLY you can move on 👍.
Well done again from your driving instructor Matt Shurmer.

Josh came to me with some driving experience but with a lot of nervousness around his driving and his ability. A so often is the case, just by getting him to drive a little slower, gave him so much more thinking and preparation time that he developed really nicely.
We had a disappointing fail a couple of months ago, but he went away, did some private practice, and then we picked up the lessons again recently. With very little intervention from me, the progress was smooth ending with a very pleased pupil, driving instructor and examiner today.

Lauren has had a long wait to pass her test, with Covid and test cancellations causing her huge issues. She has been very fortunate to have her own car though, and with the help of mum and dad has been able to do lots of private driving between the test dates.
I don't think I've ever had such a good driver having to wait so long to pass the driving test.

Emma already had some experience of driving before I saw her, but really lacked confidence after a couple of previous experiences with other driving instructors.
She responded really well to me though, and we made quick strides forward, and ideally would have had a test sooner than today, apart from the waiting lists.
She also hugely benefitted from doing some private practice with her partner, so huge thanks to him too.

Sam came to me with previous driving experience in a manual car from a few years before, so we had lots of the basics already covered.
Combining that with her absolutely amazing determination and hard work made the lessons hugely enjoyable. While there were some nerves along the way as we got closer and closer to the driving test, we were able to come up with some strategies to combat that, and on the day she flew through.

Congratulations to Jazmine W from Bromley who passed her automatic driving test yesterday 17th September 2021 at the first attempt with ZERO faults! (On a personal note, this is the 2nd of my last 3 passes that have achieved the zero fault success!).
Of the two of us, it was only Jazmine who was surprised with her fantastic achievement, as I knew what a fabulous driver she was, and that if she could control her lack of confidence and her nerves, that she would fly through- which is exactly what she did! 🚗🚗🚗
It has taken Jazz a while to get to this point. When I started seeing her this year, in a manual car, I could see the potential she had but that she also needed a release valve to take away some of the pressure she was feeling. I suggested a taster session in the automatic, and from that point we (she) didn't look back.
A wonderful success Jazz and I look forward to seeing you on the road, from your driving instructor Matt Shurmer. 🚗🚗

With her university life and the ever changing test availability we had to do some quick work a few weeks ago to go for her first test, where a mistake that will haunt her forever cost her the first time pass.

Emil came to me with plenty of driving experience in a different country, and some experience here, but needed to develop some of the finer subtleties of driving.
In every lesson, regardless of his previous experience, he took on board what I wanted him to do to improve his driving.
As well as the driving itself, i don't think i have ever laughed so much in my life with a pupil- Emil is an extremely funny guy, and we had some very, very weird conversations.

Harry came to me with previous practice in a manual, and a driving test experience from a couple of years ago. We both initially thought that it may take an hour or two to get everything working together again- hands, feet and eyes, but he took to the automatic really quickly and we were out amongst the traffic dealing with crossroads and roundabouts on the first lesson.
From then on, we only really had to do some tidying up before he was able to take the test.

Congratulations to Charlie K from Swanley who passed his practical driving test today 15th October 2018 at the 2nd attempt with only 3 driving faults. Charlie initially had a difficult time at the start of his learning experience and had to work extremely hard all the way through. He has shown huge levels of persistence which will do him well in the future and was majorly unfortunate on his 1st Test when he got a bit excitable on a ‘30’ road. Today, he found a bit of swagger in his driving and flew through. Well done mate from your driving instructor Matt Shurmer.
