Testimonials
Chris has helped many through the qualifying process to becoming an Approved Driving Instructor as well has helping others develop their skills further once qualified. Here is what one or two have kindly said about him by way of a testimonial.
First of all, I’d like to say that I feel extremely lucky and privileged to have Chris as my instructor. I’m training to become an ADI, and I must say that it’s been a challenging road so far, much more challenging than I imagined it would be. When I met Chris I didn’t quite expect that getting the qualifications to become a driving instructor would be so hard, but luckily after the first meeting with Chris and a conversation about it, not only did I find out exactly what to expect and what I had to learn, but also got…
Chris, when I came to you, I had already failed my first attempt at the dreaded part 3 test. I thought that I was strong enough to have passed the test, but the reality was that I had very little understanding of how a part 3 should be tackled. You initially assessed me on our first meeting, asking me to deliver the same PSTs that I just failed, and you asked me not to show you my result but to let you grade my attempt with you and then compare the two results.... It amazed me that they were identical. It…
Once I had signed up to my training and I had made the decision to become an ADI. I received a phone call from Chris to go over what the process entailed and what was expected from me. We arranged our first meeting and I remember being put at ease straight away. I really enjoyed my training sessions with Chris and he couldn't do enough for me. He always believed that I could do it and on the 1st may this year I successfully passed. I would highly recommend Chris to any one who is thinking of starting the same…
"So Chris has asked me to write a testimonial about my thoughts on him. He already knows I think he's great so it isn't for his benefit I write this but for the benefit of anyone considering doing their part 3 ADI training with him. However firstly I must thank him for all the excellent training tuition and support he has given me over the past few months - it goes without saying I could not have achieved ADI status without him. As a qualified secondary school science teacher I'm in a reasonably good position to assess the quality of…
After an interesting 8 month process, I passed my Part 3 test on the 11th April 2014 (2nd attempt.) I can't say it was 'straight sailing' as it certainly had its ups and downs. At times I wondered exactly what I had let myself in for, as I hadn't researched fully the structure of the training and tests required. All I knew is that I wanted to be a driving instructor and this was going to be my new career! I purchased a training package from the AA and was put in touch with Chris Deane. Chris had a tremendous…
"I've been so pleased with my training. Chris always listened to what I had to say each lesson and responded in a way which put me at ease and helped me to overcome my concerns. He has a really personal approach to training which meant that I felt the lessons suited me really well to develop my skills in a way I was happy with. Becoming a driving instructor is a journey which took me a year. This journey had ups and downs and Chris was excellent at helping me to navigate my path to success." All the…
Hi, my name is James, and I recently passed my Part 3 instructional ability test at Burton test centre. I started my course in 2011, just before Christmas, with the AA. I was assigned Chris as my trainer, and once I had my books and spoken to him on the phone, I met up with Chris to talk about the course and the revision I had been doing. Straight away, I found Chris to be a very friendly and helpful trainer. After going through the revision books and meeting Chris a few more times, I put in for my first…
Chris Deane, what can I say? He certainly hasn't paid me enough to flower up to my thoughts and blag about his ability and for that very reason, I don't see why I should & in fact I'm not going to. Chris, I'm sorry, I'm going to have to be honest and tell it as it is. If I embarrass you or cause you to have to answer some dodgy question then so be it. Anybody wanting a driving instructor to simply get them through a test had better look elsewhere. Believe me, when I say that this man is…
A big thanks to Chris for 12 months of quality training which culminated on Friday 27th April 2012 with me qualifying as an ADI. From our very first introductory meeting through to my part 3 test day; Chris has been thoroughly professional and a mine of top tips and useful information, supported by the impressive and inspiring demo's from both seats. I echo the sentiments of NICKY regarding Chris' generosity towards his PDI's and thank him for this and for making the whole experience enjoyable. Chris' knowledge and pride in his work and industry are commendable and I would recommend…
