Revell's School of Motoring -
Lowestoft
After more than 35 years as a driving instructor the time has come for me to retire.
It has been a huge privilege and a pleasure to have taught hundreds of people to drive and if you are someone who has learnt with me I want to thank you for letting me guide you through this important part of life.
It is a source of some pride that I never advertised my business - the vast majority of my pupils came via word of mouth recommendation. And while it made me feel a little old, it was a great compliment when people who I had taught at the start of my career brought their children to me for lessons when they became old enough to learn.
I am also proud that I ended my career as an instructor with a pass rate of over 75%, compared to the national average of 46%. While I always focused on teaching someone to drive rather than pass their test, this is still a very pleasing statistic.
So to everyone who gained their licence with me, recommended my name to someone or even just had a few lessons with me, thank you for helping me make the dream of running my own driving school a success - it was hugely appreciated.
