“A proactive approach with peter using notes clearly developed in his own time to hone my skills”

I would thoroughly recommend Peter as a driving instructor. I was referred to him having had over two years of driving lessons, four different instructors and two failed tests. Peter has an excellent teaching style. He is both learned and thorough, supportive and positive, yet authoritative when the situation requires.  At the beginning of each lesson he would produce notes he had taken from my previous lesson in order to provide constructive criticism and objectives to achieve going forward.  I was very impressed by this proactive approach, as he had clearly made the effort to do this in his own time.  Peter is good at identifying areas requiring improvement, and encouraging practice in a positive manner, remaining patient and calm at all times. My driving skills and self confidence improved substantially and I put a lot of this down to Peter's way of teaching. I would not hesitate to recommend him as an instructor.
