I'm 60 years old full of nerves, didn't think I would do it but passed first time. Loana is so amazing with her teaching skills. she teaches to a high standard, made me a confident, safe driver. she encouraged me when I wanted to give up, was patient and kind, tailored the lesson to me as she does all her students. words can't express how grateful I am to her she had literally changed my life, given me freedom and independence. her heart and passion into her teaching.. I'm also disabled, she covered all my needs in learning, I wasn't an easy student with all my anxiety conditions but she stayed with me . I can't recommend her enough, she is so amazing . I'm happy for anyone to contact me and ask me personally about my experience with Loana she is that good. if anyone is thinking of driving lessons, she is a must go for

I highly recommend Ioana Brandusa! She is patient, friendly, and explains everything clearly, making learning to drive much easier. Her calm and supportive approach helped me feel more confident behind the wheel. She takes the time to go over mistakes and ensures you fully understand before moving on. If you’re looking for a professional and encouraging instructor, she’s the best choice!

Thank you ! An amazing driving instructor! I would 100% recommend to anyone 😀As someone who started off being very unconfident Ioana made me feel very comfortable and never put me in situations beyond what I felt ready for. She was so friendly and approachable and made me feel comfortable in asking any questions ( even if it was for the fifth time). She was also great in explaining things in a way which made them easy to understand. I can’t thank you enough for the time and support! 💕

Ioana is a wonderful instructor and I wholeheartedly recommend her. I returned to driving 15years adter passing my test having never built up any experience. (I know!) From my first lesson and throughout, Ioana was reassuringly calm and always encouraging. Her open and friendly personality, along with clear instructions and honest feedback, played a big part tin measuring my own progress and spurring me on. I may well be back for some motorway lessons before long... I am now out and about locally with confidence I never imagined I'd have. Big thanks Iona :)

I couldn't recommend Ioana enough. I needed a few lessons and live a little further than she usually goes. But she still went out of her way to help me as I was going to go for a test faster than I expected. I only had a few lessons with her but she was great. Always wording advice well and made sure to help me brush up on any tiny mistake I may have done but whilst keeping it friendly and professional. If you're someone who gets nervous with other instructors in the car, you won't be nervous with her. Definitely recommend 😁

Ioana is an absolute Hero! She helped my Sister Pass first time in Peterbrough. Extremely efficient and straight to the point, fixing issues and carefully building her knowledge and skills. My Friend had refresher lessons with Ioana when he first came in England. I couldn't believe how he drove after having lesson with Ioana, It was a changed driver, I now feel very comfortable with him in the car. On behalf of Mihai and Daniela, Ioana is the best Instructor they ever had. I absolutely recommend Ioana.

Awesome instructor. She was given the task of teaching my son to drive over a very short period of time because we were moving and he was starting University and needed to be able to drive to do hospital placements at Uni. She was patient and put my very nervous son at ease. He passed his test 1st time thanks to Ioana. We cannot recommend her highly enough!!
