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 Lessons Borehamwood – “Simply Fantastic Driving Instructor, Lots of Fun!” Says Dr Sharma

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

“I was not confident and hesitated to drive,” explained Dr. Sharma. “I thought parallel parking was a 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!!”

Recommendation

And she’s very enthusiastic about recommending Driving Memories to anyone looking for a great driving instructor.

“Alec has excellent teaching ability, he’s very patient. He understands your weaknesses and acts on them, tweaking them accordingly.”

“Thanks Sonal,” said Alec. “You did great, and you were a pleasure to teach. I wish you many years of safe and happy driving.”

Driving Lessons in Hatfield – “Amazing Driving Instructor!” Says Temi

Posted on November 14, 2018 by admin

After passing his practical driving test today at Borehamwood DTC, Temi Ariyo from Hatfield is now looking forward to a new career as an emergency paramedic ambulance driver – thanks to his driving lessons with Driving Memories.

Moving From Automatic To Manual

Temi already had an automatic-only driving licence, and came to Driving Memories for lessons to re-train on a manual, so that he could get a fully unrestricted driving licence and join the emergency services.

“It feels very amazing to have passed my driving test,” said Temi outside the driving test centre. “As an ambulance driver, I need to drive carefully and safely on the road.”

“Temi was a pleasure to re-train,” said Alec, his driving instructor with Driving Memories. “Temi could not drive an ambulance with a restricted, automatic-only driving licence.

“Temi passed his test on the second attempt with me, getting just 2 driver faults. Well done Temi!”

A big chunk of those 20 hours of driving lessons for Temi focused on getting comfortable with the clutch and gears, after years only driving automatic vehicles.

Losing Bad Driving Habits

“But some of that time,” explained Alec, “was spent teaching Temi new habits, and getting rid of some old ones.”

“My biggest challenge was taking away my had habits when driving, but Alec helped me get there,” said Temi.

Praise & Recommendation

Temi has nothing but praise for Alec’s training during his driving lessons.

“Alec is a very amazing driving instructor,” said Temi. “He’s very chatty but very good at getting you right to where you need to be with good driving on the road.

“I would recommend him to my friends and family. He’s the best driving instructor. Very funny and amazing sense of humour.”

“Thank you, Temi,” said Alec. “I wish you every success in your new career, and many years of safe and happy motoring.”

Well done to Aaron O’Hagan from Borehamwood, who passed his driving test yesterday, Tuesday October 9th 2018.

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

“My driving licence will enable me to get to work much easier,” said Aaron.

Aaron’s biggest challenge was going slowly and taking his time, which his driving instructor, Alec, helped him overcome.

“He came to me as his local instructor,” said Alec. “After assessing his needs, I devised a programme for him and worked strictly to it”

Aaron recommends that his friends should also choose Alec and Driving Memories to help them pass the test. Why? “Alec is a nice guy,” said Aaron.

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.”
