all i can say is diane truly is ballymena’s best driving instructor!! she got me through my theory and driving test both first time and within the space of just over 2 months. with each lesson she explained everything very well and ensured that i wasn’t nervous and understood everything she said. any questions i had diane gave me the best possible answers and solutions and made sure i wasn’t lost and was prepared for my driving test to the very best of standards. i really recommend diane as a driving instructor to everyone!!

I would highly recommend Diane, she is an amazing driving instructor. My daughter passed first time with the careful, calm and patient support of Diane. In each lesson everything was explained in great detail with lots of helpful hints and tips. Diane was very reassuring with my daughter which was great. Thanks again for everything Diane x

Had 1 lesson here, I had explained I was very nervous but she insisted that I drive on the busy roads 1st time round instead of quieter industrial estate or similar. This had the effect of making me even more nervous. I found her pushy and more concerned about her alloys staying clean than training a new driver. When I got out the car after the lesson, I was physically shaking and all in all this experience almost put me off learning to drive altogether. Luckily I found another local instructor who had a calming instructional style and helped my confidence grow.
If you're confident about your driving this may be your instructor, but if you are at all nervous about the process of learning to drive I would suggest that you consider a different instructor.
