" I came to Richard with just 10 days until my test. In this time he developed my driving skills and awareness greatly so that I was able to pass my driving test with 1 just minor fault. His experience and knowledge means I would highly recommend his instruction to anyone in the Loughborough area looking to pass their practical test. "

" Hi Richard, Thank you so much for the comprehensive instructions, I would say guidance, with detailed notes/explanations and an eye for details. I commend your professionalism as an instructor and empathy for your student. Definitely recommend you to all my known circle. And yes I passed in my first attempt, that says it all how you influenced my driving. PS: I remember, it was at the last minute I got you as my Instructor. I still remember the effort you too to send a message to check out if you could squeeze in lessons for me. So glad you did send that message, a testament to your heart in order to help/reach out. "

Not only a brilliant mentor, but also somebody I would now consider a friend. Would highly recommend to anybody.

" Richard has been extremely helpful all through my short time with him, he picked me up when I had a bad experience with a previous instructor and gave me really good positive feedback every lesson which helped me improve a lot, and he didn?t mind going over any extra questions or queries when driving. Overall he?s really nice and made driving for me very comfortable and safe while learning, would definitely recommend to use him if you?re looking for driving lessons! "

" Having had a bad experience with my first instructors decided to find another....read through Richards previous customer reviews so gave him a call. What a difference he made to my driving abilities but more importantly my confidence grew stronger on every lesson. Richard was incredibly supportive and patience and if ever things didn't quite go correctly we would just try again to improve. Nothing was to much trouble. A truly excellent instructor with vast experience and knows exactly how to get the best out of his pupils. Highly recommended "

" I could not recommend Richard enough to any new learner. I joined Richard as a scared and anxious learner driver, who really lacked confidence in her ability. Immediately, Richard made me feel comfortable and I learnt very quickly under his instruction. I truly do not think I would have been able to pass first time with a different driving instructor. His belief in my ability was a massive motivation for my success. I will miss my lesson with Richard and our conversations. I could not recommend him more, especially if you are joining as an anxious learner! Thank you Richard for all your help! "

" My dad at double A motors looks after Richard’s car so it made sense to have driving lessons with him. I’m going to be honest I wasn’t very confident or co- ordinated during my early lessons so it took a very long time to master even the basics. But with Richard’s experience and incredible patience week by week I steadily improved. After a year of regular lessons I passed my driving test 1st time. Having my independence has completely changed my life. I feel confident and comfortable driving nowadays. Thanks to Richard expert guidance "

" Having already failed my 1st driving test I was obviously very apprehensive about my next attempt especially in a new location I was unfamiliar with. I found Richard on a Google search and having read all those really positive reviews decided to contact him and book lessons in preparation for my next driving test. That was probably the best decision of my life as he is quite simply brilliant. He immediately put me at ease and between us worked through various problems and techniques that my previous instructor simply didn’t pick up on. I could go on and on but sufficient to say I’ve just successfully passed my driving test. I can’t thank Richard enough. "
