I would like to say a VERY BIG THANK YOU to Rachel for all the support she as gave me to reaching a new goal in my life PASSING MY PART 3, early this year. Having taking training with another school, spending lots of money and being told to watch YouTube and to buy books after books I did abit of research and found this amazing lady. If I could give her 10 stars, I would. She gave me the confident I needed but most of all she believed in me and fully dedicated her life to me “LOL” Even took time out to support me on the day of my test. I truly couldn’t thank her enough She also gave me my first pupil, who went on to pass her test, getting a clean sheet (big smile) Once again thank you very much for all your support Rachel

I just wanted to say thank you very much for organising the driver training that I had with Rachel yesterday and please pass this message and my sincere gratitude to Rachel also. It was brilliant! I found the experience interesting, enjoyable and rewarding and it was carried out in a professional manner without being intense. All in all a very worthwhile training exercise for anyone that drives on a daily basis. I will definitely be recommending your company to colleagues, family and friends.

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.

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.
Stuart ZiemelisADI
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.
Richard AttwoodADI, Le Mans winner
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!

“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”
