Engaged Mr Akhilesh of Drive Local as the trainer in the initial days after my son acquired his L licence. He has a systematic and patient approach to teaching driving skills to beginners.

My son had a very good grounding in the fundamentals of driving and has grown in confidence. He has now obtained his P licence successfully, thanks to Akhilesh.

Even I have been able to correct certain shortcomings in my own driving (despite having close 30 years of driving experience) thanks to tips from Akhilesh.
