Mandy is a great teacher if you’re looking for someone to feel comfortable with and at ease from the get go!
I took refresher lessons with Mandy as I hadn’t really driven much in almost 8 years having not bought a car since I passed my test.
With patience and thorough teaching, I quickly built up my confidence again and learnt many new things along the way including motorway driving and rural roads. Thank-you again Madders!!!
