Lucy passed 1st time 🥳!!!!! A really confident, great drive from Lucy today despite a fairly tricky route, plus it started raining - and Lucy couldn't remember how to put the wipers on though, so gave them the odd wash with screen wash 😂😂😂😂 busy fort kinnaird, road works, bus lanes- some of which you can use, some the new 7/7/7 ones you can't, stop sign on a ginormous hill - and Lucy just sailed through it like a boss;) Her comment on the way home did make me smile - "that was easy! Especially after all that hard stuff you made me do, today was easy!" - couldn't describe the learning to drive journey better. Lucy worked hard and learned to drive, not just pass a test, to drive safely and navigate different road types, making driver decisions - that is why today was 'easy'.
Well done Lucy, you did yourself and me proud today! And a 1st time pass for the new car too 😉.
Happy driving 🚗

Holly passed 1st time 🥳🥳!!! A simply top-class drive from Holly today, who's test route included all the things she didn't want it to - bikes 🚴‍♀️, buses 🚌, 'that roundabout' 😂, even a tractor 🚜 on the A1. All the things she didn't want on her test lol, that makes her pass today all the more earned - the worst happened and yet Holly navigated each one gracefully and safely. That's a real pass right there 👏.
Holly, thank you for putting 110% into learning to drive. You've been the perfect student:) Working hard on your theory having booked it before your first lesson, passing that 1st time too:) practicing between lessons with your lovely supportive mum, every single lesson you could tell me what you wanted to work on, you put time and practice into really learning the skills of driving. Today you showed yourself how good a driver you are, that's where the confidence starts to grow:) Holly, you have the world at your feet, can't wait to see what you achieve in the future 😊. Beep and wave when you see me on the roads....Happy driving Holly 🚗

Joshua passed 1st time!!!!!! 🥳 Brilliant result this morning in sunny Musselburgh from a driver who could not deserve his result more - he worked hard learning to drive, benefiting from lots of private practice from his supportive partner too:) Joshua wasn't ready to commit to driving at 17 and has became an accomplished cyclist and bus passenger- as a driver he certainly likes to get past those kinda vehicles as fast as he can (😂IYkYk) but with both mirrors intact he drove like a pro today and showed his examiner the type of driver he is - a safe and confident one. It's been a blast teaching you Joshua, enjoy the best summer ever - with a car!!!!! Happy driving 🚗

Guess who's is having the BEST Tuesday ever👇................Raynie PAAAAAAASSSSSSSSED!!! And what a stunning pass this was, planning ahead, commentary driving to keep her focus on the road and not her passenger, not just using mirrors - SEEING mirrors, not just looking left to right - ACTIVELY scanning left to right. Raynie has been a real dream to teach, hardworking on every lesson, knowing what she wanted to improve on each drive. As a fellow mum of 2, I realise the immediate and immeasurable difference the freedom of a car will make to Raynie's life, school runs in the rain no more, and a summer full of new adventures ahead. Proud of you Raynie, you wanted this, you worked your arse off for this - and today - you DID this 🥳 Congratulations - Happy driving 🚗

Lily passed 1st time!!!!!!!!!!! Cracking drive today from a driver who had to work extra hard on the theory, picked up the physical control side of driving impressively quickly - and worked hard again on her planning and awareness (wee scare with a dodgy van on the dual carrigeway sorted this one out lol) Sometimes it takes a wee scare to really understand what you're planning for and need to be aware of 🤷‍♀️😉 To Lily's credit her mirrors are now excellent, helping her deal with other road users today - and more importantly, every time she drives! Lily put the work in, benefiting from private practice with her lovely mum too:) Incredibly proud of you today Lily - and thank you for such an awesome 1st day back from holiday for me! Congratulations Lily, happy driving 🚗

Guess who's passed 1st time today.........LANAH!!!!!!! Behind those (very nessesary today) sunglasses is a fully qualified new driver who absolutely sailed through her test at sunny Musselburgh earlier today 🥳 Lanah was very nervous on our early lessons, scared of anything new (going left for example 😂) and full of self doubt that she somehow wouldn't be able to do this.....then 'the click' happened, she started thinking about driving, what she'd done last lesson, what she wanted to improve on - from there on there was no stopping her! Genuinely nervous again today on test day - as soon as she started the engine though, there was that 'click' again and the real Lanah took over, driving with poise, elegance and confidence - even commented to her examiner "you'll no die today while I'm driving" 😂😂😂😂😂 Her clearly impressed examiner was delighted to give her her pass certificate and feedback on a great drive (no doubt happy to be alive, of course 🤣) Lanah - you have the world at your feet today, cant wait to see what you achieve next! Happy driving 🚗

KAYTLYN PASSED 1ST TIME!!!!!!! 🍾🥳. Not only did Kaytlyn pass, she only got 1 teeny driving fault!!!! I am proud of every single one of my drivers on test day, but once in a while you see a drive like I did today - knowing the blood sweat and tears that went into this journey and it makes you just think *WOW* that was incredible- that is how I felt today 😊
Bit of a stressful start as Kaytlyn 's test was nearly cancelled at the test centre as her examiner was unwell (hope they are better soon) however the excellent team at Musselburgh managed to get another examiner in at the last minute the save the day for Kaytlyn - thank you DVSA team Musselburgh from us both:) Well done Kaytlyn, despite your best efforts of being "scared" of everything, putting off your theory....and your test.., and redesigning every road and speed limit in your head 😉😂 - you absolutely nailed it today - impressive 😊Congratulations again - Happy driving 🚗

Carly passed first time!!!!! (Yes, it has been a busy Friday:) Carly has been a dream to teach, bubbly and positive on every lesson. Benefiting from lots of practice with Dad, Carly has worked hard on her driving skills and most importantly her planning and awareness, making drivers decisions and the ability to keep herself safe. To see the girl who got into my car on her first lesson develop into the confident and assured driver I watched today has been quite incredible 😊 an easy and very well deserved pass which clearly impressed your examiner - and me:) Congratulations Carly, happy driving 🚗
