Emile is an amazing instructor
Emile is an amazing instructor! Passed first time using all his toys and methods. I was taught to drive safely. There's not really the right way to drive but he taught me the best way. Thank you! Also the checklist/progress list was helpful on the LDC student website.

Emile was an excellent instructor, being patient and always explaining everything clearly. He had a lot of confidence in my abilities which helped my self esteem and enabled me to be much less nervous for the actual test. I thought that the LD workbook was a good addition to learning as it enabled me to know what was exactly examined on the test and allowed me to keep track of what a felt confident on. The theory test preparation quizzes were good for being able to do short amounts of revision anywhere. The hazard perception videos were useful to prepare for what exactly the test would count as a hazard. No hesitation

I think Emile, my driving instructor was very good. When calling him to book driving lessons, we spoke and I could tell how good of a teacher he was from that one conversation. Thus along with the driving lessons, u would tell myself constantly in my head 'thank God he is my instructor' because of how good of a teacher he is. I would definitely recommend him to anyone.

No hesitation in recommending Emile
Emile is a very good instructor. He is clear in his teaching and has great understanding of me/student. Using the LDC workbook and visual aids helped me a lot when I made mistakes. The use of reflections at the end of every lesson helped me to a self review and ways to improve. No hesitation in recommending Emile for those who want to pass first time round.

Emile is patient, calming, knowledgeable, and progressive. Very friendly and flexible. So understanding and makes the complicated simple. So patient, I couldn't ask for a better instructor.

Emile is a great instructor. He sets a very high standard for his students. Learning with him, I very quickly learned all the necessary skill for safe driving. But I also learnt the techniques for the exam. He kept you calm and cool in the lessons. Highly recommended for new students. On the LDC workbook / notes, we didn't need to use much as I preferred the learning to be through instruction.

Emile is a calm and collective man and he brings these traits to every lesson. He speaks calmly and respectfully taking time to deal with every issue. He endeavours to keep his students calm and reinforcing appropriate driving techniques. When we started, I was incredibly anxious behind the wheel. Now I'm calm and collective and that's thanks to Emile. I have already recommended him to all my friends and family. Thank you so much for what you have given me.

No hesitation recommending Emile
Emile, my instructor was very good in terms of explaining how to drive safely. I felt very comfortable and well prepared when coming to the test. The Driving Skills workbook was very helpful as it allowed me to reflect on what improvements I needed to make to drive safer. I really learned a lot from Emile. He would always take the time to explain things properly. I have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone learning to drive.

Passed 1st time with me :)
Emile was the best man for the job. As an experienced driver, I had been driving for over 10 years before migrating to the UK. But unfortunately I failed my first driving test. I met Emile and, I am here today, as happy as I can ever be with my pass certificate just after 5 lessons! It us a miracle and Emile did his magic. He was calm and cool during all lessons. He identified all my weaknesses and channelled them into great strengths. I was sceptical from my first performance, I was scared, but Emile eased all my worries. I couldn't have asked for a better instructor. He is my God sent. Thank you so much Emile for all your efforts. I will never take it for granted.

Emile is a very polite and friendly driving instructor. He has helped for many months on learning hours to be a safe driver with every lesson done. He is able to identify any fault that I may or may not have identified and through discussing them I can learn what needs to be done to overcome the problem(s). The LDC driving school has been a big help for me. I would highly recommend Emile as a driving instructor if you want to pass your driving test first time. I would highly recommend to make good use of the LDC workbook and student hub as they can help you learn well the lessons it has to offer. The videos on the student portal and the quiz questions on the workbook are very helpful to name a few. Thank you very much Emile for the many lessons we had!

Emile has been a great instructor to me from the beginning. I had different instructors before him so I can compare how good and different he is. He is very knowledgeable, extremely patient, friendly and always very helpful. Even though his main aim is to help us pass our practical test ,he actually teaches driving skills that will last for life. So, you can drive anywhere in any circumstances. This knowledge has changed everything about driving to me. I cannot thank him enough for this. I recommend him to anyone who wants to pass their exams and learning driving skills for life. He also supports us with resources, such as books and helpful links.

Finding Emile was one of the best lucks I have had during my driving journey. The other one was PASSING THE TEST FIRST TIME!!! He is super helpful, patient, calm, and STRICT in a good way. The teaching approach is very comprehensive understandable. I'm sure if you stick to what he teaches and do your homework (reflections, etc.) you will pass in no time!!! 😀 You're rated 5+ stars. Thank you Emile 😀

No hesitation in recommending Emile to anyone learning to drive.

Emile is a patient, great teacher, takes his time to teach. He does not teach to pass but to produce a safe driver even after pass. Best teacher I have had who does not make me feel like I was asking stupid questions.

Passed 1st time with zero driving faults 😀
Great thanks to Emile for training me and helping me to pass and be a safe driver. I was provided with an LDC workbook and student hub which helped in my theory and practical tests. I was able to pass with zero faults and was congratulated by my examiner. He was very impressed. My practice lessons were very practical and comfortable. Emile is calm and collective. And as I am a nervous driver he has been able to support me throughout my driving journey. Despite being a nervous driver I still scored 10/10, a perfect score 👌 👍 😎 👏 🙌 😅

Emile has given me a great experience polishing my driving. The examiner commented on the smooth and safe driving experience when in the car with me. This is thanks to my instructor's persistent emphasis on following the correct routines all the time everytime. I got on very well with Emile. His patience and dedication to produce safe and competent new generation drivers clearly inspired me to work hard and achieve good result. I have never felt worried when driving with him. He allows me to make mistakes and ask me to analyse them and think of solutions. Then get me to repeat until comfortable with the outcome. He always discusses the plan with me and I'm always involved and given the responsibility for my own progress. Emile's aim was to develop my knowledge and driving experience of traffic rules and road safety so I'm well-prepared for my future driving on my own. He is so friendly and driving with him is really enjoyable. He is a good teacher who produce well taught and responsible drivers. I have no hesitation to recommend Emile as a driving instructor to anyone who wants to learn to drive. Many thanks Emile for helping me to pass first time in Erith.

I have really enjoyed my lessons
I would highly recommend Emile to anyone learning to drive. He has been so patient, kind, and supportive during my lessons. He has really stressed the importance on M.S.P.S.L. as well as safe and legal driving. Thus helped me to focus on these two things whilst driving. The student centred learning LD system has been helpful when learning to drive especially watching the videos before the lessons. The lessons reflection have been an excellent tool in order to determine my strengths and weaknesses, to improve and rectify the mistakes fir future lessons. Emile really taught me to take the reflections on board whilst driving which made me feel more of a confident driver. Thank you again for your patience. I have really enjoyed my lessons with my instructor and have gained confidence in the road with life long driving skills.

I’m very happy to pass first time with only 2 minors. Emile has provided me with many useful resources and driving tips which helped me a lot in my driving. He always pushed me to do my best with each lesson and always came up with solutions to any issues well before the lesson was over. He's a very observant individual and always picks up on issues and faults to brush them up before the tests which meant that on test day I wasn’t nearly as nervous and was able to pass with flying colours!! Overall, I would highly recommend Emile to anyone who want to learn on manual car. Thank you very much for teaching me how to analyse my driving moving forward.

Emile, my driving instructor, was really amazing. He knew his stuff, always acted professional, and made sure I was getting it right every step of the way. Emile spotted a few bad habits I had, the sort that could've easily made me fail my test. But thanks to him, I worked through them. The best part was that he didn't just train me for the usual routes, he trained me for all sorts of roads and situations. And guess what? I passed my test the first time around with just a few minors, even though the route was totally new to me. So, if you're looking for a top-notch driving instructor, Emile's your guy. He's not just good at his job, he goes the extra mile to make sure you're ready for whatever comes your way on the road. Thanks to him, I feel confident and safe driving anywhere. Trust me, you won't regret choosing him. 5 stars for you Emile.
