I would highly recommend Susan! She is an amazing driving instructor and makes you feel confident behind the wheel. As a very shy and quiet person having an instructor like Susan hugely benefited me as she is very outgoing and friendly. Susan teachers in a very calm and relaxed manner, she always makes you feel comfortable even when you make a mistake. Susan made learning to drive a very pleasant experience!  .

Susan was a great driving instructor, so calm and patient throughout my time learning to drive. Always really reliable and the lessons were productive. Susan really helped me prepare to pass my test with only 2 minors. A really great driving instructor and I’ll miss the Monday afternoons!
Response : Hello Scarlett! Thank you for your lovely review, I will miss our Monday sessions too! Take care out there ? Xx.

Susan is an amazing driving instructor who helped me pass first time. Great time is spent assessing your weaknesses but also recognising your strengths which creates an excellent learning environment. 100% recommend.

I would highly recommend Susan as a driving instructor. Her patience and calming presence creates a relaxed learning environment where you can learn from your mistakes without getting worried about them. Particularly for me, as a nervous driver, I made incredible progress with Susan and most importantly I am confident that additionally to just learning how to pass a driving test I have learnt how to always drive safely on the road. Throughout my whole experience with her, Susan boosted my confidence within my skills and tailored my lessons well to suit my needs alongside being a warm, friendly person who was lovely to chat to every week.

Couldn’t have asked for a better instructor! Very patient and explained things well, and I didn’t feel scared to make mistakes. I was quite a nervous driver and she knew how to best do my lessons around that. Would highly recommend!
Lydia Hare

Susan is an excellent driving instructor! She is friendly and kind, making you feel comfortable and at ease from the first lesson. Susan is patient and gives clear instructions and advice. When you are getting close to the test, Susan is extremely flexible. She put me first, giving me extra hours that fitted around my other commitments. Susan gave me a huge amount of reassurance and confidence that I needed and after 6 months with Susan I passed first time!

Harrison Cousins
Rackheath
Susan is an exceptional instructor! She is professional and has an extensive knowledge of the Highway Code and how to drive safely; not just how to pass a test. She is always patient and tailors lessons to suit individual needs. She is always on time and ensures that students gain the most out of the hours they pay for, depositing any unused time into a ‘time bank’. Would 100% recommend!

Susan is an amazing driving instructor. She’s extremely patient and calm. What I loved about learning with Susan was that it wasn’t just learning to pass, but leaning to drive safely and confidently. I would thoroughly recommend Susan to anyone who wants to learn to drive, she was absolutely fantastic.

Susan is a fabulous instructor, she’s kind and patient. She didn’t mind when I was stressing, she just told me to stay calm and encouraged me to carry on. She taught me very well and went over anything I didn’t understand, she lead me to passing first time. Would recommend her to anyone wanting to learn to drive.

Susan is a wonderful driving instructor; extremely patient, knowledgeable and supportive. I wasn't looking forward to learning to drive and certainly didn't expect to pass first time. A very thoughtful, positive person which was exactly what I needed. Highly recommended.
Catherine Matthews

I started with a different instructor I loved but she sadly had a bad injury which meant she could drive for a long period of time. My friend recommended Susan to me and she picked me up right where I left off and made me feel even more confident. I passed swiftly in my first try and honestly don’t think it would have happened if it wasn’t for Susan! Thank you so much! I will miss you a lot.

Jade Rose Syer
Norwich
Absolutely brilliant driving instructor and a lovely lady! Susan has given me so much confidence with driving and I honestly wouldn’t have passed my test without someone like her. She takes everything at your pace and is so good at explaining manoeuvres etc. As you get more experienced, she gives you little tips along the way and helps with the “show me, tell me” part of the driving test. Susan is so calm, caring understanding and I cannot recommend her enough!
Ethan Hackett
Norwich
I would thoroughly recommend Susan as a driving instructor, no matter your level of experience. She is so positive and friendly, and always managed to help me relax and get out of situations that were a little stressful on the road! Her lessons prepare you not only for the test, but for driving beyond, and that is invaluable. Thank you for being so patient with me and I will certainly miss our driving lessons and chats together!
