Course testimonials:

  • Olivia said: I found the class to provide lots of practical information. It was nice that the tutor provided a hands-on demonstration of how to change a tyre.

  • Kirsty said: Instructor very approachable, didn't make anyone feel stupid for not knowing or not having done something before. Was great to get hands on practical experience, especially changing a tyre in a relaxed atmosphere, and as we used my car as the practice car I feel even more prepared and confident I can handle the basic maintenance.

  • Elia said: The hands-on session in changing a wheel was great in terms of building confidence. Also learnt some brilliant tips about keeping the car maintained. The tutor offered his knowledge of the workings of cars and was very approachable.
