About me
Hello, my name is Andrew and thank you for visiting my website. I offer manual tuition in Bridgend and Pontyclun area of South Wales.
I decided to train to become a driving instructor because I wanted a job with real satisfaction and there is nothing better than seeing someone achieve success in their goals.
Prior to being a driving instructor, I spent 20 years working on the railway in a customer facing role as a train manager. During this time safety was my number one priority and I always followed procedures and was proud of my track record.
Another aspect of my previous career was that I was responsible for training new train managers ensuring they developed the essential skills to perform the role competently and to a high standard. Seeing my colleagues develop and succeed in their new role was a great feeling. This is where my love from teaching has come from and I genuinely want people to succeed.
Unfortunately the career didn't have much flexibility and I didn't have a great work / life balance. This is why I decided it was time for a change and to use my skills in another industry. I decided that driving instruction was a good fit and wanted to do my bit in giving back to the local community by teaching a life skill to my pupils.
I have lived in South Wales since 2006, and have enjoyed my time exploring new areas and meeting great people through my passion for motorcycles and music.
I chose to work with LDC because everybody learns differently and the LD systems allows for flexibility in lessons so that you learn to drive safely and at a pace that is right for you.
My aim is to make every lesson as enjoyable and productive as possible and the LD system helps me to achieve this more effectively.
My personality is calm, friendly and relaxed so you can rest assured that your lessons with me will be conducted in a fun and enjoyable manner putting you at ease quickly so that you can concentrate on learning to drive without stress.
Hopefully this gives you an insight to who I am so if you would like to know more or to schedule a lesson please feel free to "Contact me" I look forward to hearing from you soon.
