I’m in my mid-30s and had honestly accepted that I would never drive. I’d tried countless instructors since I was 18, and one even told me I shouldn’t drive because of how anxious I was. Then I found Kirsten.
When I started with her, I couldn’t even make it through a roundabout without panicking. Now I can navigate traffic without crying (a genuine milestone). Kirsten has the perfect balance of firmness and support, and she always knew how to push me just enough without overwhelming me.
She explained things in so many creative ways - whiteboards, analogies, little tricks -whatever it took to help it finally click. And she was endlessly patient, even when she had to repeat the same concepts more times than I’d like to admit without ever making me feel at all silly.
Her emphasis on safety was one of the things I valued most. She taught me how to read the road, anticipate other drivers, and keep myself calm in stressful situations. She didn’t just teach me to pass my test; she taught me to be a genuinely safe, confident driver.
Kirsten is the absolute reason I passed my practical test today. She’s supportive, skilled, and incredibly good at what she does. I’m so grateful I found her. Every nervous driver needs a Kirsten in their life!
ThankYOU sooo much!
