Biography

I’ve been driving for well over 40 years, a driving instructor since 2009, and I still love doing both! I strongly believe that driving should not be stressful, and I aim to get this across to my pupils on their lessons, and make it as relaxed an environment as possible.

Before becoming an Approved Driving Instructor I had several careers involving driving, including being a multi-drop driver and controller for a firm in central London, a private hire driver, and a stretched Limo driver on the Costa Del Sol. Away from driving I also used to work with horses.

When I’m not working most of my time is taken up by my kids and grandchildren, but I like to unwind in front of the TV catching up on the soaps, and of course Top Gear. Also I love taking photos (mainly of the family), and spending time on my PC.

Gemma Thorpe, Weybridge, Surrey

“I am a perfectionist to whom driving did not come easily— this could have sabotaged my progress if not for Kim’s extraordinary patience and carefully tailored tuition (to accommodate my many flaws), coupled with a scathing wit and delightful humour that made each moment thoroughly enjoyable and ensured I never took any criticism to heart, but instead could focus on applying it constructively! As such, bundle of nerves though I was (again, Kim was there on test day to reassure me that I was capable, despite my ‘ditsy’ moments), I was able to pass first try!! I couldn’t recommend Kim enough, she’s an absolute gem of an instructor and will be missed by me, as she is by all her previous students xx ;).”
