Highly Recommended

I just passed my driving test today, with the help from Dee as my instructor for 10 months. Through difficult days and good days she has kept her good mood, positive attitude and knowledge at 100% each lesson and taught me to drive in an excellent way. She is a very realistic and fair instructor, she looks at her job as a service – a service she performs extremely well. She accommodates the lessons to suit your schedule and no time is a bad time for her it feels. I wouldn’t even dream of going through a crash-course, I now feel competent and secure on the roads much thanks to Dee. There is a reason why she has got sooo many professional qualifications; the lady sure knows how to teach people how to drive in a safe manner, but also with confidence. I am sure I will still hear her voice next to me reminding me to R.E.A.D T.H.E R.O.A.D and take my time whilst I am now moving out ont he roads on my own. Would highly recommend taking lessons with Dee! Thank you for 10 fun months! x

I Cant Recommend Dee Highly Enough

I have just passed my test with Dee and I can’t thank her enough. When I started driving with Dee I was very nervous and hated driving.Dee was patient, explained things so clearly and helped me believe in myself. She’s an amazing instructor and thanks to her I now feel confident and enjoy driving. Thank you so much Dee, I would recommend you and rookie to anyone!

Catherine is Amazing!

I started my driving lessons with Catherine in 2009 and she was absolutely fantastic. Even though I was extremely nervous, she made me feel relaxed and helped me gain confidence to pass my test… The amount of lessons I had with Catherine wasn’t any way near how many some of my friends had had with other driving schools and I just thought that they were just trying to make more money. Whereas Catherine always thought about every lesson making it worth my while!! I passed my test 2nd time not long after and was so happy!! I kept in touch with Catherine and recommended my friends to contact her cause she was so FAB! Unfortunately I lost my license because of insurance reasons (It wasn’t because of my driving!) and I was so gutted. I rang Catherine about 2months ago and asked for her great help once again to get my license back! Without hesitation we booked a lesson in that night and off we went. I had the minimal amount of lessons needed and we booked my test – she was always checking for cancelations for me as she knew I wanted to get it over with!! After 6 weeks of refreshing my memory with it all, she waited patiently at the test centre whilst I did my test. AND I PASSED! We were so happy and wrote my name in her book of ‘passed students’ with the date by it. You’d be mad not to go with Catherine at Rookie Red for whenever you need help with lessons or passing your test, she’s the best. I cannot thank her enough for her support and faith in me that I could do it again!!! Thankyou

7 Day driving course
Quick pass driving courses are all the rage currently, but Rookie must be brutally honest; it is rare that a new driver will be successful in such a course.
