“Passed 2nd Time”

★★★★★

written by tomhd1 on 16/01/2017

I started learning just a few days after my 17th birthday because, like most young people, I wanted to learn to drive as soon as possible. My first instructor was a woman and we got on well at first, then I started to enjoy driving less and less. She wouldn't let me do anything too advanced (like roundabouts/A roads/city driving) and she wanted to spend whole lessons doing things like hill starts and parallel parking. I began to think she was holding me back a bit and started to dread having lessons because she would get angry over the smallest thing. She eventually left RED Driving School to join another company in Lincoln and wanted me to transfer as well. I got a summer job at this point, after about 8 hours of driving and didn't really have much time for driving lessons anymore. I spent a while looking around for new instructors because I found her really creepy and odd, then after a while went back to RED to see if there were any other instructors available in the area. There was only one in Lincoln, called Alun Kurton. He was such an amazing instructor and I genuinely loved driving lessons. He was very open about everything and he's a great teacher. On my first lesson (having only ever been on one roundabout), he got me to drive in to Lincoln city centre and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I would recommend him to absolutely anyone. I passed my test the second time, I may or may not have pulled out in front of a van the first time :/.
