Congratulations go to Simon from Ryde for an excellent driving test pass this morning, zero faults being recorded by the examiner.
Simon has been taking lessons with us over the past few months and passes the day before he heads off to UNI. He follows his Mum who took lessons with us some years ago now. I understand his twin sister will be next in line.
We have experienced some very good pass parks recently. Out of the past ten tests we have had one fail, one pass with 9 faults, a pass with 5 faults, three passes with 2 faults and 4 passes with zero faults.
Thank you and well done Simon for continuing this run of results.

Our fourth test pass in the last week or so was achieved by Vanessa Ewen this afternoon. Vanessa lives in London but has stayed on the Island with her family over the past fortnight during which time we have run an intensive batch of lessons in our manual Vauxhall Corsa.
This afternoon Vanessa demonstrated an excellent drive to the examiner and achieved a first time pass with just two driving faults.
We were delighted in being able to help Vanessa attain her goal. The sessions and test have been planned before the end of 2024 which does prove how invaluable early planning is.

A good start to the jew week with an outstanding test pass this morning. My student Vlad from Wi******er passed his practical test with zero faults, demonstrating an excellent drive to the examiner.

Vlad is originally from the Russian Federation close to Moscow and has previously taken a driving test in that country. It has been interesting to learn how the Russians go about learning to drive and how their driving tests are conducted.

Vlad had contacted us last month requesting a batch of driving lessons before his test. Approaching us in the correct way I was happy to oblige and in the event we did two extended pre test sessions. This is the way to plan, ensure the standard of driving is test ready and be able to practice in the test route area, brushing up on the various reversing exercises.

We will only consider students either on and off the Island who are prepared to make that commitment and have a good driving ability.

Well done Vlad. It will be a batch of lessons I will long remember and it was a privilege to work with you.

Sushil had come to us from another instructor having previously been unsuccessful in passing his test on that occasion.
We were able to work with Sushil over the past few weeks in our automatic car to obtain the desired result today.
Well done Sushil.
