Completely at ease
“'I was extremely nervous about learning to drive, but Ricardo put me
completely at ease. Ricardo ensured that we made good progress in every
lesson, whilst still making sure I felt comfortable throughout my lessons. I
was confident going in to my test and have been every time I’ve driven since
as Ricardo doesn’t just teach you how to pass a test, he teaches you how to
drive! I would recommend Ricardo to everyone, and especially those who are
nervous like I was.”

to drive
an enjoyable experience. You make suprising amounts of progress in
lessons, making valuable use of the time. He is clearly a very experienced
instructor and I would highly recommend him to anyone. Thank-you Ricardo!”

Highly recommended. I passed first time

and I would definitely recommend to anyone thinking of learning to drive.”
Miriam S
Wholeheartedly recommend
"I was absolutely petrified at the thought of getting behind the wheel before I
signed up for some lessons with Ricardo. He was an excellent instructor,
always very calm and made sure to explain things thoroughly. I felt totally at
ease during the lessons and we also had a laugh too, which made the whole
process less daunting. I can't believe the transformation in my confidence on
the roads now! Would wholeheartedly recommend Ricardo. Thanks so much
for all of your encouragement and for getting me through the test."
Hannh T
Passed first time
"I was very nervous about learning to drive, but thanks to Ricardo's patient
tuition I passed first time. I would highly recommend him to anyone thinking
of learning as he teaches lifelong driving skills, rather than simply how to
pass the test. This gave me great confidence in my ability to deal with new
roads and situations after I passed."
Michael O

and knowledgeable in his fields. He was very helpful and willing to answer
questions and demonstrate. With his help I gained the confidence to take the
test and I have passed my test first time. He is a highly recommended
instructor and cannot fault anything at all.”

Matthew R
Worthwhile experience
"Learning to drive with Ricardo has been a really worthwhile experience.
From day one I could feel myself grow in confidence. Throughout my
experience Ricardo has been fantastic at organising lessons at a time that
best suits me. We've covered the technical skills needed to improve my
driving, and new techniques to help me pass the test. It paid off and I passed
first time! Thank you very much Ricardo!"
Daniel L
Thoroughly recommend
"I would thoroughly recommend Ricardo as a driving instructor- he got both
my dad and me through the test first time round and will soon be teaching my
sister! He is supportive, patient and made me feel relaxed (especially when I
first started and was incredibly nervous to be in control of a car). Thank you
so much Ricardo for your dedicated teaching!"
Beth E
Enjoyable lessons
"Hello Ricardo-- Just want to thank you again for being patient with me and
going the (no pun intended) extra mile! Whenever I made a mistake it was
always amended through clear explanation as to what went wrong and then
explained as to how I should perform the action properly/accordingly. I've
found the lessons enjoyable and very beneficial to my learning; so much so
that I passed first time :D So I thank you for your patience and time-- you've
been a great mentor"

"I want to thank Ricardo for his excellent and patient tuition which culminated
in me passing my driving test first time yesterday. I couldn't have wished for a
nicer or more competent driving instructor and would highly recommend him
to anyone thinking of taking lessons in the future..."
Martin S
Friendly and very skilled
" Having put off learning to drive for a long while due to nerves, I was so
pleased to choose an instructor who was calming, patient, friendly and very
skilled. Ricardo made learning to drive easier as he explained everything in
great detail and used driving theory. He has been extremely helpful for my
future solo driving beyond passing the test. I would definitely recommend him
to all ages, any level of experience and different levels of confidence."
Louise H
Helped me pass first time
" I would highly recommend and like to thank Ricardo for teaching me
how to drive. He's very calm, encouraging and reliable. The lessons are
very organised and well-structured which helped me pass first time. Great
teaching methods and after being on the road on my own, it shows me
that he done a great job teaching me!
Thanks again Ricardo"
Jack D
He is incredibly calm
" Having struggled with driving in the past, I was immediately put at ease
when learning with Ricardo. He is an incredibly calm, patient and
thorough driving instructor. He was extremely encouraging and made sure
I understood my mistakes through careful explanations and diagrams. I
would definitely recommend Ricardo to anyone learning to drive, no
matter what age or ability. Thank you so much Ricardo for helping me
pass my test!"
Beth B
He gave me the confidence
"Before I came to Ricardo for driving lessons I was scared of driving, scared
of my then-instructor, and stressed out by just the thought of getting back in
the driver's seat. A friend of mine then passed his test and recommended
Ricardo to me, and I decided to give driving one more try. Since my first
lesson with Ricardo I have not regretted that decision. He is calm, patient,
and explained everything clearly and made sure I understood before
progressing further. He gave me the confidence I needed to carry on driving,
put in for my test, and, now, to pass! I never thought it was possible, but
Ricardo patiently believed in me and I would not hesitate to recommend him
to anyone learning to drive."
