Xcel Driver Training

Rachel is a first class, client centred, trainer. Tasked with incredibly demanding deadlines, she provided superb coaching and training to help ensure that I passed all 3 parts of the ADI qualification, first time! I would highly recommend Rachel to anyone embarking on an ADI.

Rachel is a very experienced coach and possess excellent interpersonal skills meaning that she easily develops rapport with her clients that leads to trust and confidence. She believes in doing the very best for her clients which she does using client centered learning techniques. I would recommend Rachel to anyone who requires the services of a first class driver trainer.

Tried other recommended instructors and found it hard work and didn't reach my goal.Rachael's method of teaching is another level, it's enjoyable,rewarding, and sees the instruction from the pupils side.If you want to progress in driver training look no further she is brilliant. Rachael gave me confidence in myself and I passed with a positive attitude.

Rachel is a highly qualified trainer who takes time to ensure that her work fits with the requirements of the client and suits the needs of her customers. She takes time to ask the right questions and, due to her own breadth of knowledge and CPD she has the experience required to work across a broad field with confidence. Highly recommended!

After failing my first two attempts at the part 3 test, and closing in on the 2 years since passing part 1, the pressure was on and even though I had paid for a full course of training with the major driving school in this country I decided I needed help. After searching the internet for options I tried three others before I was recommended to try Xcel and from the first lesson I felt confident they could help me and more importantly the instructor gave me confidence about my ability and told me what needed to change. Part 3 is a hard test to pass as statistics prove so you need the skills and confidence to have a real chance of passing and Xcel managed this with a intense course which led to success at my 3rd and final attempt. I am fortunate and happy to recommend Xcel to anyone who is at any stage of their ADI training as I am sure without them I would have failed and if I had started with them from a fresh I would have saved a lot of time, money and pressure.

I would like express my sincere gratitude to you for helping me to pass the ADI final exam. Your patience with me was amaising, your ability in getting me to understand exactly what and how to deliver the correct content for each PST is superb. I have, and will continue to recommend you to any aspiring ADI's that wish to tread that path !. Good luck for the future and thank you again for helping me with mine.

Dear Rachel. Just a note to say my Standards Check was successful after struggiling to pass it twice before seeing you. I was in a desparate state and needed the extra help that you gave me. I can now relax until the next one when you will definitely see me again. Thanks for all your help.

I first met Rachel in Birmingham where I undertook training to be an A.D.I. Throughout my training I found her to be most professional and diligent in her training. As we all know it takes alot of training and competence to pass all 3 parts of the D.S.A tests to become a fully qualified driving instructor. I am both pleased and glad I met Rachel through my training. She has an approach which shows her determination to complete tasks. As I was one of the fortunate minority to pass all 3 parts of my A.D.I exams first time. Without her very informative and helpful training Im sure I wouldve struggled. Because of her hard work I have become a simular sort of A.D.I with a very good pass rate and most of all lots of referals of pupils who pass on my number. Rachel showed how training a pupil can be rewarding aswell as enjoyable. I have on several occasions recommend P.D.I's who were struggling after being trained by other training organisations to seek out Rachel for training with great success and they were rewarded with passes. After all these years of being an A.D.I & an D.S.A examiner I am glad to say we have kept in touch and have several conversations sorting out different eliments of training that arise. I would have no hesitation in recommeding Rachel in any form of training as she has a very professional and calm attitude towards her work.

Rachel came recommended by an influential ADI and, so although not ideally placed geographically for me, I decided to take some lessons with her. I must say that she didn’t disappoint! The ADI training process is very much a journey with highs and lows but Rachel played a great balance between support and a real task master! Her trainee characters and high standards pushed me hard and helped me achieve good first time passes for both parts 2 and 3 in an impressive timescale. Thank you Rachel!

When I decided that I would like to become an ADI my Father who has been an ADI for 10 years highly recommended Rachel whom he had met when undertaking his training to become a driving instructor. Out of all the instructor trainers he had come across he felt that I would benefit most by the one instructor that had made such a positive impression on him! After my first few lessons with Rachel I began to appreciate why she made such an impression on my father. My lessons were structured with new goals to work towards on each lesson; I found Rachel approachable, professional and a hard task master. I knew that I could call on Rachel in between lessons with any queries or questions and this helped me to pass my part two with NO faults whatsoever. My part three training really brought home to me how much I needed to learn to become an ADI, but with Rachel's structured approach to each part of the training I soon understood how part I, II & III come together. I passed my part three with goods grades. I am now a far more confidant person not only in my ability to teach safe driving for life, but also in my everyday life. Thank you Rachel...

From the moment I met Rachel I knew that Xcel Driver Training was the training providers I wanted to do my ADI training with, I have quite a unique learning style because of my Dyslexia and Rachel picked up this straight away. Rachel can alter her teaching style to suit the candidate’s needs and requirements. Rachel explained the whole ADI qualifying process to me not sugar coating any part of it, so I went into this process with my eyes wide open and knowing exactly what was expected of me. Rachel supported me through every stage of the ADI process and I believe because of the support and excellent instruction I received from Rachel is the reason I passed all parts of the process on the first attempt. Rachel also has a mass of knowledge about the Driver training industry and is very willing to share this knowledge with anyone who wants it. The instruction I received from Rachel was some of the best I ever received, the level of instruction was pitched perfectly I never once felt overwhelmed or dumbed down. My favourite part of Rachel’s instruction is the way she could swap between acting being a student to instructor; this has got to be seen to be believed. This made me laugh a lot. Rachel made the whole process not only informative but very enjoyable. Rachel has a fantastic sense of humour. I fully endorse Xcel Driver Training and recommend anyone who is thinking of doing their ADI to use Rachel, you’ll not regret it.

“Completing my ADI was much easier than I expected with Rachel at Xcel driver training. While always away racing I didn’t have much time, but yet Rachel made each lesson very informative and worth while to get me through my test in as little time as possible. I have since recommended Xcel Driver Training as the only way to go to complete your ADI”
