LDC Driving School - Alex Hirst

Fantastic experience: Just like to say a massive thank you to the time and effort Alex put in to improve my driving and ultimately pass my test. Highly recommend him to anyone. Cheers Alex.

Fantastic experience: Alex taught my daughter to drive and from day one she developed her skills in a clear, methodical way with Alex providing support and training plus all the additional information she needed to be a good driver. Alex also helped Erin through a patch of low confidence by researching and reading ways he could help her feel better, going above and beyond to help her back to full confidence. She passed first time with few faults and is driving really well and confidently on her own. I would really recommend Alex for any new driver. Give him a call!

Fantastic experience: Alex is a fantastic driving instructor - friendly and kind; always clear and articulate with feedback; and a supportive teacher who knows when to push you and when to help you regain your confidence after a set back. I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone looking to learn!

He was always encouraging and helped me to perfect tricky manoeuvres like parallel parking with ease. I passed first time under Alex's instruction and would recommend him to everyone!

Fantastic experience: Alex taught my son to drive throughout the latter months of 2020, undoubtedly one of the most challenging of years! His flexibility, positivity and passion for high standards made learning to drive an enjoyable experience for Euan. Alongside lessons Alex communicated with me as a parent regularly, I trusted his opinion and valued his advice. I knew throughout Euan was in safe hands and he made good progress quickly. I learnt some things myself too! Alex has gone above and beyond throughout, with no exception to making himself available with less than 12 hours notice to attend Euans last minute test on Christmas Eve! Euan passed first time! I cannot recommend Alex highly enough.

Fantastic experience: I would highly recommend Alex as a driving instructor, He easily explains how to carry out all of the maneuvers and which techniques to use in a way which is easy to understand. Alex also gives tips which will help your driving for after you have passed your test. Alex is always friendly and really helpful. Passed my test first time with Alex! Many Thanks!!

There was a lot of set backs due to the corona virus and other things but I’ve really enjoyed the lesson I had and managed to pass first time!

Fantastic experience: I had been delaying driving because I was scared witless of doing so but having Alex as an instructor has been amazing! He gets the best out of me by pushing me but not so much that I'm shaking in fear, lol. His laid back but professional approach is beyond what I thought an instructor could possibly be. I can't praise him enough. Above a 5 star rating for sure! @:)

Fantastic experience: Alex provides a very professional service, is punctual, flexible and effective. He creates a comfortable environment for people to learn to drive at a pace that suits them. Alex's patient style has undoubtedly enhanced my progression towards obtaining my driving license.
