Abbess Teaching & Instruction Ltd

Andrew from AbbesssTeaching is a very good tutor. He is very patient and a hands-on person. His instruction method is worthy understandable and gives you the confidence you need when wanting to start bike riding classes. Only a few classes and I can now move and navigate my bike path with confidence. I would highly recommend his services to any newby he is just marvelous.

Got in contact with Andrew via email. He responded in a timely manner and very helpful with his info. Andrew was calm, patient, friendly and helpful. He was able to impart information really well. Very grateful to Andrew for his expertise in enabling me to be able to ride a bike after 40 years, Highly recommend Andrew! .

Excellent course, superb delivery! Great with the kids.

Andrew is a brilliant instructor, we’re so happy we booked with him. Our son had been struggling to get his confidence for awhile and we’d had difficulty bringing together all the techniques for riding his bike. Andrew was patient and thorough in his explanations, and he made the lesson fun so our son felt completely at ease. After only two lessons, he is safely and independently riding his bike around the neighbourhood, he’s keen to cycle now and his confidence has already grown massively! We were so pleased with Andrew’s instruction, and we’d happily recommend him to others. Thanks again Andrew, we’re grateful for your help!

Andrew was very patient and helpful an after only 3 lessons he provided the training for my anxious 9 year old and 6 year old to begin to cycle. Would highly recommend.

I thoroughly recommend Andrew’s bike training which covers all the important skills. Andrew is very patient and encouraging and the children readily relate to him. He makes the serious business of bike safety a fun learning experience.

Couldn't recommend enough! Andrew was amazing for both our kids from start to finish and after only a few lessons both of our kids are now not only cycling but excited to be on their bikes. Couldn't get a better service and the prices were very reasonable.

Andrew was so patient and encouraging in helping our 9 year old to cycle independently - working through safety steps and building up from balance to pedalling and on to starting from an incline. I was both relieved and very pleased to finally see our son pedalling and enjoying it. Thanks again, Andrew!

I can not thank Andrew enough my son was cycling his bike within 20min, day two he was learning skills and cycling through that park the patience and skill Andrew has to teach is amazing I would highly recommend any one who is thinking about booking to do so.

Highly recommended, my son was struggling to get off his stabilizers on his bike but after 15 minutes with Andrew he was zooming around. His confidence is through the roof with the skills Andrew has taught him.

Andrew is an excellent teacher! My daughter really struggled with her balance and with finding courage. It took Andrew less than an hour to teach her to cycle! I especially like that the class was focused on rode safety and understanding the cycling rules. I’ve already recommended Andrew to many of my friends.

Andrew was very encouraging and patient with our 7 year old son. My son was always keen to come to lessons with Andrew. He learned in only 3 lessons.

My daughter went from not being confident at all on a bike, to being able to ride it independently within one lesson with Andrew. He has a great way with kids and knows exactly how to encourage, motivate and support them in learning to ride, and in gaining confidence once they are riding. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to others in the future.

I’ll never be able to thank Andrew enough for teaching our 6 year old to ride his bike. From very nervous on stabilisers to riding independently with none in 5 lessons. Amazing.

I wanted my 11 year old to have some road safety knowledge and a bit of know how on the workings of her bike. The session with Andrew was absolutely fantastic and should be essential for all kids who are cycling on the roads - thank you.

Despite regularly commuting for 16years I had several great takeaways to act on relating to door zones, looking (life saver look), dynamically managing risk (might do same junction several different ways as circumstances change) as well as positive re-enforcement of the things I was getting right. Many thanks Andrew.

Andrew showed me how to ride my new bike, which is a much higher specification than anything I have owned before. Of course, like many adults, I kind of learned to ride a bike as a child, but I never fully got to grips with more than 5 gears …. The work with Andrew was incredibly confidence building, and simply fun too. I learned a lot, and I really appreciated Andrew's positive and encouraging teaching style.

I can’t speak highly enough of Andrew. He delivered a family cycle lesson for me and my daughter (who needed to build her confidence in riding a bike). The session was really good fun, super informative and has really brought my daughter on in terms of skills and confidence. Andrew was very calm and patient. I would recommend to anyone.

Andrew is incredibly helpful and a brilliant instructor. He was incredibly supportive with my wife who is new to road cycling, and even taught me who has been doing it for two decades a thing or two as well! He's an engaging and passionate instructor and we would not hesitate to recommend him to anybody else seeking a bit more advice.

Andrew is amazing! He has taken my son who was an 8 year old non cycler who is easily distracted to a confident cycler in 5 one hour lessons. In the new season we will be covering more complex options.
