Real reviews from learners who felt more comfortable with a female instructor.
I failed my first test in Blandford Forum because of rushed observations at junctions, especially around the tricky spots near the town centre. I was gutted. My instructor at Rated Driving didn't let me give up though. We went back to basics, practised the Salisbury Road roundabouts until I could do them in my sleep, and worked on slowing down to actually look properly. Second test, I passed with only three minors. So relieved and grateful for the patience shown.

Thanks to my instructor for getting me through first time. Really appreciated the calm approach, especially on tricky bits like the one-way system in town. Clear instructions made all the difference. Passed at Blandford Forum and wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

I always struggled with the big roundabout at Salisbury Road where it meets the A354. My instructor took me through it again and again until I could read the lanes properly and position myself right. We also spent time on Shaftesbury Road dealing with the parked cars and narrow bits. All that practice paid off and I passed first time at the Blandford Forum test centre. Really grateful for the patience.
