I used to panic at the roundabout where the High Street meets Malling Road. My instructor took me through it over and over, explaining the lanes properly each time until it clicked. We also practised the Holborough Road junction loads, which came up in my test. Really patient approach and it paid off when I passed first time at the local test centre. Grateful for the help.

Honestly can't fault the communication at Rated Driving. My instructor replied to my messages so quickly, even when I panicked about manoeuvres two days before my test. Booking was dead easy and any questions I had between lessons were answered properly, not just brushed off. Had a minor issue sorting out my test time near the day and they helped me through it without stress. Passed first time at the Gillingham centre and I'm certain that support made all the difference.

I was honestly terrified at the start. Even the thought of getting behind the wheel had me in knots. My instructor was so calm and patient, never rushed me, and that made all the difference. I was absolutely dreading the roundabout at the top of Holmesdale Road, but we practised it over and over until I felt comfortable. Passed first time at the Gillingham test centre last week and I still can't quite believe it. So grateful for the steady reassurance throughout.
