Amanda was an excellent driving instructor and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the very start, she was incredibly patient and had a great sense of humour, which helped me relax and build confidence behind the wheel. At the same time, she was firm and fair when it mattered, always pushing me to improve without ever making me feel overwhelmed. What stood out most was how safe and secure she made me feel during lessons — I always felt like I was learning properly, not just going through the motions. Thanks to her guidance, I passed my test first time in Mulhuddart with only 2 marks, which says everything. I’d highly recommend Amanda to anyone learning to drive. Her expert knowledge and unique calmness are what make first time passes !
