Driving Instructor

 

My name is Carol Crowther and I am an Approved Driving Instructor (ADI) based in Lewisham, South East London.


I trained to become an instructor with BSM driving school and was a franchised instructor with them till September 2011 when I then decided to go independent.


I am a patient, friendly person and I try to make driving lessons fun so it makes learning to drive easier. I believe in praising the good things rather than constantly being negative.


Although I live in Lewisham I cover a wide area of South London. I am also Pass Plus registered.


Customer testimonials

"I came to Carol after having bad experiences with two previous instructors; she put me at ease straight away and was not only friendly but very patient during my lessons. Carol is a great instructor and I would definitely recommend her to anyone who is learning to drive for the first time or like myself has come back to driving after almost 10 years. She is very punctual, professional and not only teaches you how to drive to pass your test but also teaches you how to be a good driver when you're out there on your own. Thank you Carol, you're great!"
Lauren, Dulwich

"After my first lesson with Carol, I knew I had the right instructor, her knowledge of the road is huge, but it's her patience, approach and ways of teaching that really makes her stand out from anyone else. She builds confidence and has a genuine passion in wanting to teach people to drive. I couldn't recommend her more highly!"
Patrick, Nunhead

"When I started learning how to drive I honestly never thought I would pass and I should just give up driving every time I made a mistake but then I changed to Carol.
Carol is the most amazing driving instructor anyone could ever have because she helped me build my confidence and believed in me when I needed it the most!
She is very friendly and really patient too. I enjoyed every lesson with her and enjoyed passing with her. I'm going to be taking pass plus with her too. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who wants to have happy driving lessons :)"

"I passed my test 1st time with Carol today. I had been learning with Carol for 5 months and started with her from scratch (I didn't even know where the indicators were lol). I found Carol to be reliable, patient and friendly and a fab instructor. Even though there were times I wanted to give up Carol encouraged me to carry on and gave me the reassurance I needed. A big thank you to Carol. I wouldn't have done it without her!!"
Amanda, Eltham

"I was so thrilled to pass first time thanks to Carol! If only every driving instructor was as patient, helpful and committed as her I would have passed 15 years ago. I cannot recommend Carol highly enough to ANYONE wanting to learn to drive".
Ruth, Brixton

" I contacted Carol following an online search of driving instructors in the area and her name was on the list of drivers to choose from. Following a pleasant telephone conversation where she reassured me (as I was apprehensive),  we arranged to meet.
Besides her pleasant manner, Carol is timely, reliable and flexible as well!. A great teacher who covers all aspects of driving and allowed me to share my concerns on areas where I wanted to keep practicing.
Thanks Carol for helping me PASS my driving test FIRST TIME!"
Sharonne, Hither Green


" Carol you are a star and not forgetting the best instructor in the world! Passing my test was one of the best things I achieved this year and it was thanks to you that it happened!! "

Dennis, Sydenham

 

"Carol has been my driving instructor for 3 months now and I could not ask for more!

I found her to be a reliable, well prepared and skilled driving instructor; She is a very friendly and enjoyable teacher that creates a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere.

She is teaching me how to drive safely and confidently and I have no hesitation in recommending her to any new learner drivers! Thank You!!"

Carmen, Sydenham

 
"After having my test moved three times due to bad weather, Carol managed to keep me motivated to carry on progressing. She's very knowledgable and could answer almost all of my questions regarding driving and the rules of the road. All in all, it was a very enjoyable experience, thanks Carol!"
Luke Keane, Streatham

 
"I passed my test this year with Carol and I must say she did a great job making learning to drive easy and safe. I couldn't have asked for a more competent, patient and caring instructor.
CaroI really went out of her way to make sure I passed within the time period i had set myself, even going as far as booking my test for me, and rearranging lessons to ensure that i was more than ready to pass
Carol was always prepared for lesson, often arriving early, so that I always got the most out of my lessons.
I highly recommend booking lessons with Carol if you want to pass your test."
Keiron Thompson, Dulwich


"I passed my driving test first time after learning for 4 months with Carol. She was absolutely brilliant from day one, easy to contact and arrange lessons with and a brilliant combination of challenging when things went well and reassuring when things didn't go so well. I feel like she taught me to drive, not just to pass my test.
Thanks Carol!"
Carris Jones, Penge

 
 
"I passed my driving test first time this year, having transferred to Carol from another instructor, and she provided exactly the kind of instruction I needed. She was enthusiastic and encouraging – a stark contrast to the previous instructor! – was always well prepared and spent time working out the best way to teach me to drive. She was flexible with booking lessons, knew the road rules inside out and by the time I took my test I felt very confident on the roads."
Tom Porter, Sydenham

 
“I started refresher lessons with Carol after having not driven for nearly 10 years, and after just two lessons she had given me the confidence and courage to start driving again on a regular basis on the busy streets of London.  She is patient and calm and I would recommend her to anyone.  I haven’t looked back since.”
Clare Wilson, Balham
