Sam is a very good driving instructor. I had failed tests before with a previous instructor and then switched to Sam she was quick in ironing out issues in a friendly manor. She is fabulous at soothing any nerves. I couldn't thank Sam enough for her time and helping me to get my license and open the door to a whole new world of freedom.

Oliver Parsonage

With very few lessons, Samantha took me on from an instructor that didn't teach me the key parts, with only only 2 lessons before my test taught me absolutely everything I needed to know and managed to pass me after failing once before with my previous instructor. I would highly recommend Samantha to anyone, she is brilliant.

Josh Richardson
2nd time pass (1st with me)
During my lessons, I was given a variety of very useful materials. Having never driven near York before Sam was a key part in getting me familiar with the road, junctions, and roundabouts I had experienced on my test. Having a previous instructor before this, Sam helped me improve all aspects of my driving to help me pass my test.

I am so happy and thankful to have had Samantha as my instructor. She has been amazing for me, as my test was only weeks away when we started together, and I was so unprepared and had a huge lack of awareness. Samantha has completely changed my driving and made me so much more confident on the road. She is a fantastic instructor and I would not have been able to do it without her. I am so grateful for all the effort she has put in with me.

Sarah Maliko
2nd time pass
Sam is the best instructor I have ever had. After having experienced many different instructors, it's only when I started lessons with Sam I became confident in my driving skill. She has taught me so much and she been such a great encouragement to me. I would definitely recommend her she's an an amazing instructor and an even better friend - she makes driving fun. There are many instructors that are just out for money but with Sam she cares more about the progress of her students and you feel that in every lesson. That's what really boosted my confidence to drive and I can thank you enough! 😊

Katrina Coleman

Instructor was very patient with me and having failed my teat a few times previously with another instructor and so I wasn't very confident, but Sam had helped build my confidence and made sure I was happy with every manoeuvre before moving onto something.

A good instructor. Built my confidence. Made me feel comfortable and gave good corrections. The LDC system was useful because I could read about each skill before I did it and I knew what to practice. It was useful to have questions in the back of the book.

Leanne Burgess

My instructor was amazing from start to finish. She believed in me even when I doubted myself and questioned my ability as a driver. She never let me quit and I’m so glad she made me persevere because I passed first time. She was like an instructor and a friend. The LDC system worked to an extent but I found the YouTube videos much more helpful than the workbook as I am more a visual learner.

Jordon Todd

Sam is a very calm instructor who has filled me with confidence through the experience and I have been so grateful. Sam always pushed me to do better and would encourage me to go the extra mile. Sam has been one of the main driving forces for me to get my licence. I would recommend Sam to any one and everyone that wants to learn to drive.

Had an excellent time learning to drive with LDC. Thoroughly enjoyed my experience and I am pleased to have passed first. I would recommend LDC to anyone learning to drive as I feel confident on the roads.

Sam was the most amazing instructor you could possibly have. Being with Sam from the start of her career, I’ve seen the great progress in her teaching. Sam is calm, understandable and let’s you learn at your own pace. Every lesson was great and truly good memories. Sam believed in me when I had little confidence and all the way until I passed. I will miss lessons with Sam as every lesson was fun. When I went through the book with Sam she made everything clear and used help sheets when I was confused. I honestly recommend Sam to any other learner. I will never forget what she had taught me. Thank you for everything, all the best for the future.

Can’t even thank Samantha enough for how much she has helped me with my driving and my confidence. From day one she has always filled me with confidence and made me feel like I can do anything. Samantha always gives praise where it is due and always makes you aware when you are doing things correctly. I was encouraged to do new things but never made to do things I didn’t want to. I would recommend Samantha to anyone. Thank you so much.

Sam was an absolutely fantastic instructor, she knew where I needed extra help and knew how to boost my confidence when I felt as though I couldn’t do it ! She is so friendly and it makes learning to drive so much more relaxing and easy ! I have really enjoyed learning to drive with Sam. I was a very nervous driver and Sam has helped me so much ! Thank you so much ! The workbook is amazing, everything you need to know is in there and how to do it, it’s fantastic for the theory test as well as the online LDC questions and reading material! I would 1000% recommend Sam and LDC to friends and family. Thank you so much again! X

My driving instructor was amazing! After having a bad experience with my last driving instructor she was leaps and bounds better than what I had. She always made me feel safe and calm and I would fully recommend sam to anyone who wants to learn. She really cares and makes sure you work on your weakest points, so you go into test feeling confident. The workbook and videos were extremely useful and helped me correct all the mistakes. I can’t fault the company in anyway and will recommend the company to anyone who is ever looking to drive, especially to Sam!

Sam is great at going at your speed. She never rushes your progress and is great at giving the support that we need. Also Sam gives you all the information needed for test and gives you good time to practice. The workbook was a big help and clearly states what you need to know. The app for the theory test helped me understand what was expected.

Sam was very patient and understood how to make me feel comfortable and supported, throughout all my lessons. I was able to decide how to spend lessons and focus on topics that I wanted to. This made me feel much better as I was able to focus and be supported on less comfortable areas of driving. Overall Sam is a great teacher and would not have passed first time without her.

Samantha was very patient as I was learning. We looked through the LDC book before I learned something new and she pushed me in a good comfortable way to try things I was a bit scared to do. She kept taking me on test routes and places where things could be tricky.

Samantha was FANTASTIC! She kept with me through literal sweat and tears. This course was the best idea I could have done, could not recommend them enough. The LDC book they gave you is the bible of passing you test. Lovely instructor, great course, thank you LDC.
