Driving Instructor Radlett – “The Best Driving Instructor! :-)” Says Ema

Posted on July 4, 2019 by admin

Perseverance paid off last Tuesday, June 25th, when Loredana “Ema” Tudorache passed her driving test at Borehamwood DTC with just 4 driver faults.

“I have big emotions,” said Ema after passing her driving test. “Very happy moment.”

Ema finally achieved her test success on the fourth attempt.

“Ema is a good driver,” said Alec, her instructor with Driving Memories. “She only got four driver faults on this test. It was just nerves that stopped her passing the driving test before.

“You can see the relief on her face after passing the test.”

Ema works as a waitress at the popular Va Pensiero restaurant in Radlett, where her husband, Vasile, is the chef. It was Vasile who recommended Driving Memories to her after he learned to drive with Alec and passed his test in December of 2017.

“Now I’ve passed my test, I can drive to work,” said Ema.

“At least if the two of them start arguing about ‘Who taught you to drive?’ – they will both have the same answer – ‘The same person who taught YOU!” said Alec.

“Alec helped me with everything, I was very relaxed,” said Ema. ” He’s very friendly. I will always remember Alec’s voice from my driving lessons, constantly reminding me what to do. And I’ll remember the fun I had, learning to drive.”

Driving Instructor Borehamwood - Amy Impey

Today we’re congratulating Amy Impey for passing her driving test, at the first attempt, at Borehamwood DTC with only 8 minor driving faults. Job well done, Amy!

“It feels great to pass my driving test!” said Amy.

Amy owes her success to Alec, her instructor at Driving Memories, after dumping her previous driving instructor.

“Alec was a better instructor than my last one,” she said. “He has more patience.”

Now that Amy has passed her driving test, she will be able to drive herself to work in Watford.

“I will go everywhere in my new car,” she said.

Biggest Challenge

Amy’s biggest challenge with learning to drive, like many pupils, was roundabouts. “I found them very difficult,” she said. However, with Alec’s help, she conquered those dastardly traffic-circles and passed her test.

“Well done, Amy!” said Alec, her driving instructor.

So why does Amy think her friends should choose Alec as their driving instructor in Borehamwood? The answer is simple:

“Because they will pass,” said Amy.

Driving Instructor St. Albans – “Amazing! Enjoyable Experience!” says Jessica

Driving Instructor St Albans Herts - Jessica Culnane

After two unsuccessful attempts at passing her driving test with a different driving instructor, you wouldn’t blame Jessica Culnane from St. Albans, if she was frustrated and ready to give up.

Once the Hertfordshire resident switched to her new instructor, Alec with Driving Memories, she not only mastered the art and skill of being a safe and competent driver, she also enjoyed the experience of learning to drive – which is what Driving Memories aims to deliver for every pupil.

Promise of “Fun” Delivered. 100%.

“Alec was a very fun and kind instructor,” said Jessica. “He was very good at teaching driving, and made it an enjoyable experience.”

When you choose Driving Memories to help you learn how to drive, you don’t just get to learn an important skill – the driving school promises a unique and memorable experience too.

“Learning to drive is something you only do once – and it’s a vital skill to have if you live in St. Albans,” explained Alec from Driving Memories. “Everybody has the chance to enjoy that training and have fun while they learn.”

She impressively passed her driving test at Borehamwood DTC on the 25th of February, with only 3 driver faults – and on her first attempt after training with Alec.

“Jessica did brilliantly!” said Alec. “She was even complimented by the examiner who thanked her for such a ‘lovely drive’. That doesn’t often happen.

New Driving Instructor Was The Right Prescription

“She was such a pleasure to teach,” Alec continued. “She had a bad experience with her previous instructor, and I was more than happy to restore her confidence and help her pass the driving test.

“Every pupil has different strengths and weakness; everybody is different.” Alec explained. “Jessica just needed an instructor who understood what concerned her and then I taught her accordingly.

“Everybody can learn to drive,” said Alec. “Choosing the appropriate driving instructor is the right prescription.”

Jessica couldn’t be happier with the results she achieved with Alec. She’s also excited about getting to experience her new found freedom of having a license.

“It feels AMAZING to have passed my driving test! I can’t wait to finally be able to drive to see my friends that live far away.”

Alec’s unique method of teaching was very different from what Jessica was used to with her previous instructor.

Built Confidence To Overcome Challenges – Like Roundabouts!

“Alec gave me a much more in-depth teaching of the road. He explained what to do and gave me confidence,” Jessica said. “My biggest challenges to driving was overcoming roundabouts, hesitation and learning how to better observe and pay attention.

“Alec’s teaching method helped me overcome all of my problems that my previous instructor couldn’t help me with.”

“Congratulations on passing your test, Jessica!” Alec said. “Stay safe on the road.”

Posted on February 8, 2019 by admin

Dr. Sonal Sharma achieved one more qualification today – by passing her driving test on the second attempt at Borehamwood DTC with only 8 driver faults.

“It feels amazing,” said Dr. Sharma after passing her driving test. “It’s fabulous!”

Dr. Sharma already had a full drivers licence from India, however she needed a UK driving licence to help further her career here.

“Now I can drive around – and get a new car!!” said Dr. Sharma.

It wasn’t all plain sailing though.

Parallel Parking Nightmare

With help from Alec, her driving instructor at Driving Memories, the stuff of nightmares was replaced with a great and enjoyable experience.

“Alec is simply fantastic,” said Dr. Sharma. “He made me feel confident and taught me how to drive safely, adding lots of fun!!”

Driving Instructor in Friern Barnet – “Brilliant! Moved me from mental block to first time driving test pass!” says Andrew

Posted on January 3, 2019 by admin

Andrew Layton from Friern Barnet started his 2019 New Year off by accomplishing a major milestone – passing his driving test on the first attempt, with only 8 driver faults – on 3rd of January 2019 at Borehamwood Driving Test Centre. Well done Andrew!

With the newly acquired freedom and independence that comes with having a driver’s license, the Friern Barnet resident’s life has not only become much easier and convenient, but more exciting too.

“I can now travel to work easier and share driving with my girlfriend. I’ll also be driving around New Zealand on an upcoming trip,” said Andrew.

“And, as the head of P.E. at Yavneh College in Borehamwood,” explained Andrew’s driving instructor, Alec, “he won’t have to run to work any more!”

After putting off learning to drive for years, like many others, Andrew began to believe he would never be able to drive.

Overcoming a Mental Block

“I had built a bit of a mental block. However, my driving instructor, Alec, was so supportive and instantly made me feel comfortable at the wheel. He was able to relate the situations that appeared on the road to my profession to make it easier for me to understand.”

Learning to drive does not come without its challenges and hurdles. But, the key is having the right guidance to help you succeed.

“My biggest challenge was gear changes and approach speed,” said Andrew. “Alec helped me to calm down when I made mistakes. He gave honest and constructive feedback on a regular basis which aided my progress. He built my confidence up, which enabled me to go out and drive in all weathers, even recent snow.”

Seeing Andrew as a happy and confident driver – especially considering his mental block when he first started – demonstrates a massive transformation in his ability and his confidence.

Thanks and Recommendation

“Alec is brilliant. For someone like me who has put off driving for years, Alec made me extremely comfortable and relaxed when driving and communicated with me effectively. I can’t thank him enough for getting me to pass my driving test!

“I highly recommend him to anyone who wants to learn to drive – and drive well!”

Aaron did really well, with only 1 driver fault on his first test attempt at Borehamwood Driving Test Centre (DTC).

Posted on February 10, 2017 by admin

Congratulations to Taz Peltz from Borehamwood, who passed his driving test today at the Borehamwood Driving Test Centre (DTC) with only 8 driver faults.

Taz passed with a lot help from his instructor, Alec, who went the extra mile to help him because of one fundamental problem: Taz is too short to reach the pedals! Alec solved this by building a false floor for the driver’s side of the car.

“My biggest challenge was my height,” says Taz. “False floors really helped, although arm length is still a slight issue!”

“It feels absolutely brilliant to have passed my test,” explains Taz. “Passing my driving test has opened up my social life and I will be able to help my parents with school runs.”

Taz is happy to recommend friends to choose Alec and Driving Memories to get their driving licenses. “He stays calm and collected, even in the worst situations.”
