ANOTHER FIRST TIME PASS!! ✅️ This time it's the amazing Maisie 👏🏻. Congratulations on your drive up in Stafford on Friday morning this week. You put in huge quantities of effort and turned up consistently to lessons, which as we know, is the least original hack to passing but the one that works best. Consistency is key. I'm really proud that regardless of nerves, you used that performance spirit of yours from college to put on a brilliant display. All with the chief examiner in the back as well as your allocated examiner. I can't wait to see you out on the roads. A big thank you to your parents and grandad for all their support, and for trusting me to get you there. Keep believing in yourself, you can do marvellous things when you persist.

✅️ ZERO MINORS! AND ANOTHER FIRST TIME PASS! The biggest of congratulations goes to Amelia today. I am so proud of you for your drive up in Stafford. A tricky town route but you displayed such exceptional control. Your examiner even gave you a fist bump... infact... he gave you two!!
Thank you for allowing me to help you get your full licence, and a big well done to Mum and Dad for the extra time practicing. You've no idea how rare it is these days to have someone committed to turning up each week and giving it their all. I was rooting for you the whole time I waited. You deserved that result. Well earned 👏🏻. I'll genuinely miss our chats and talking about music too. You've been a dream pupil, go and enjoy the freedom of driving solo. Please always remember how good you are at doing new things, keep that confidence up. See you around 👋🏻🚗🚦

✅️🚗 YAAASSSSS ANOTHER FIRST TIME PASS! Grace Matthews you were superb today up in Stafford. There's no hiding how nervous you felt... but look at what you achieved! No more of the self doubt required in life, not only have you smashed Uni with a first, you've gone and done it today with your driving too. Facts are facts, you're actually a MASSIVE overachiever and I am so proud of you. Thank you for your perseverance, time, effort, and bravery to do brilliant things for yourself. Best of luck for your future, remember who you are and how fantastic you can be. It's been such a pleasure. 4 minors and a laugh with the examiner to end things, there really was nothing to fear. You deserved it!

✅️🚗 ANOTHER FIRST TIME PASS! A huge congratulations Molly Fletcher on a fantastic drive with only 3 minors. It's only taken 2 MONTHS! You've done so many miles in your own car and displayed such a fantastic work ethic. A big well done to your parents for all the extra effort. I am definitely going to miss your company on the road. Your car is so lovely you've tempted me down the electric route! Thank you for giving ME a driving lesson on the way home in it. It was really fun. Thank you for being a star student. See you out on the road soon 😁🙌🏻. Good things happen to good people.

✅️ ANOTHER TEST PASSED!! YASSSSS!! Huge congratulations goes to the brilliant Josh Booth. Where to start?! What a young gentleman, I have found getting to know you a pleasure and I am so pleased you passed in Newcastle this morning with only 3 minors with what your examiner called "A pretty flawless drive". Josh didn't have the privilege of any private practice, however, what he did have was lots of moral love and support at home and a great attitude he's been raised with. It's rare to watch a pupil take so much accountability for their actions, and hit such consistency in lesson attendance. The result is down to his hard work, and I love being witness to a succesful test rather than responsible for it. This was all you Josh. Always remember how your effort brought you success. Thank you for the company on the road, and I wish you all the best for University. You'll smash it bud.

ANOTHER FIRST TIME PASS ✅️🙌🏼 ZERO MINORS!!!
I present you the perfect driver 😁. Phoebe Curtis you were amazing with your effort level. I know you wouldn't mind me mentioning you were nervous on the run up, but you did it!!! Especially as your sis had passed with me just earlier this week with 4 minors! The sibling rivalry came to the surface and I'm so proud of the pair of you. You've both been a pleasure to teach and I'll miss you as company on the road. I hope you've enjoyed the gig tonight, see you on the road!

Keep safe out there, it's been lovely helping you along the way 😁.

✅️ YAASSSS ANOTHER FIRST TIME DRIVING TEST PASS! Beth Curtis you did fab up in Stafford this afternoon!
Only 4 minors as well. I'm going to miss having you in the car, it's been such fun and a complete pleasure. I hope you enjoy the freedom that comes with driving and I can't wait to see you out on the roads solo. A huge thank you to your parents for so much extra time, you've all done a brilliant job. It was lovely hearing them celebrating down the phone 🤣🚗👏🏻

✅️ ANOTHER DRIVING TEST PASS 🚗🙌🏻.
Reece Nixon you did a great job up in Stafford yesterday afternoon in the awful windy weather. After just a handful of refresher lessons on your return from Uni for test you managed to really zone in and concentrate for a short notice date that could have overwhelmed most. Really pleased for you, it's been a pleasure teaching both you and your sister. I wish you both the best for the remainder of your Uni courses and can't wait to see you driving solo when you're home again. Take care mate, proud of you 🙌🏻
