Liz Holding

Since the very beginning BDS have been great to work with, prompt in helping with queries and getting things arranged. I did a 30-hour intensive course with Liz and passed first time with 7 minors. While the title of the course ‘intensive’ does give away the fact it’s intense, I still underestimated how intense and tiring it would be - however, very much worth it. The progress I made just on the first day alone outweighed any of the previous experience I had through other instructors when doing weekly lessons. I think you rebound so much faster when making mistakes on this course as opposed to just doing weekly courses, and for this reason think it makes it a much more effective way to learn - given that you’re prepared for the intensity. Liz was wonderful throughout! She always arrived on time each morning and was chatty and friendly through all the sessions. I found the app she used on her iPad to explain certain roads and roundabouts helpful as I was able to visualise certain things before attempting them. I felt very comfortable with Liz and would definitely recommend her! Thanks so much to Liz & BDS!

I would definitely recommend BDS to anybody who is looking to learn to drive. Thanks to the team who have sorted everything out from the start to finish. Liz is a fantastic instructor who has got me to a first time pass on a 15 hour course. Thanks again to you all.

I did 20 hour manual course with Liz Mckenzie, would recommend to anyone who is in need of passing quickly and also wants to learn properly, I passed first attempt. So the proof is in the pudding!

Over the moon to have passed my test earlier in the week. I’d like to thank BDS Driving school and in particular my excellent instructor liz who I now regard as my friend. Liz is fantastic very patient, and her experience and knowledge and calming influence were major factors in getting me to pass. Once again heartfelt thanks to BDS and the wonderful liz, I couldn’t have wished for a better instructor she is amazing. 😀

BDS were really fabulous, I should of had my course at the start of lockdown, throughout the whole time they kept me informed of everything that they could. My instructor Liz was really patient with me, I don’t always follow the normal way of thinking and Liz adapted to my way of thinking which made my experience so much better, Liz always stayed calm during each session. Liz made the experience very pleasant and enjoyable I am very much looking forward to getting myself a car. Thanks you BDS and thank you so much Liz

100% recommend BDS driving school and my instructor Liz McKenzie she's such a lovely person and i felt really comfortable with her I wouldn't of been able to pass without her was just like driving with a friend. thank you so much for everything!!! I'm over the moon I passed 1st time

Would 100% recommend BDS for anyone wanting to learn to drive. Had Liz as my instructor and can honestly say I don’t think I would’ve passed without her. Massive thank you to all of the members at BDS especially Donna for arranging the course and test which fit around me.

Would highly recommend BDS, I done a 25 hour course in 5 days and Liz my instructor was really good, I did start with another driving school but after so many lessons I wasn’t getting anywhere, so it’s definitely worth it thank you Liz and everyone at BDS

I would like to say a huge thank you to Liz, she has been absolutely brilliant with me, I would definitely 100% recommend BDS to anybody, Thank you again Liz see you around

I had Liz as a driving instructor and found that she is really good with everything, made me feel comfortable from the second I got into her car and thought me some new skills for driving and good tips. I managed to pass my driving test on my first attempt thanks to Liz and I appreciate everything she has done for me, I wish Liz all the best in the future and hope to see her again sometime.

Passed my test today and all thanks to BDS, 10 hour driving course I did with them ! highly recommend Liz my driving instructor was amazing gave me all the support I needed ! So happy thankyou BDS

Liz was amazing she was so patient and help me so much with my nervous and anxiety and help me stay calm and relax and she really made me feel like I could pass and told me what I was good at and gave me confidence she’s amazing Instructor definitely recommend

I would 110% recommend BDS Driving School. my instructor Liz Mckenzie was by far the best. Me and my fiancée have passed first time, within a month of each other. I booked in for a 20 hour intense week course and passed first time. Liz made me feel so confident from the moment I sat behind the wheel and she really helped me find my confidence ( something I’ve always struggled with) Also felt like I’ve known her for years and felt more like a friend was teaching me. Thank you so so so much , I couldn’t have done it without you. Best money I’ve ever spent ☺️

My driving instructor Liz was absolutely amazing, helped me fix every single bad habit i had effectively, highly recommend

I started driving lessons with BDS back in August 2020 but due to the pandemic it made it take longer for me to be ready for a test. Liz taught me the whole way through and I couldn’t thank her enough for all of the support she offered throughout! I definitely wouldn’t have passed or gained the confidence I did without Liz! Also a massive thank you to Donna for constantly trying to find a cancellation for me! Amazing customer service! Would 10000% recommend.

Did a ten hour driving course with Liz and passed after having licence revoked very friendly and useful tips couldn’t rate her enough

I highly recommend the instructor Liz Holding for any intensive courses!! I've LOVED learning in her brand new Mazda 3 too with all the cool features😍 (auto handbrake, windscreen HUD, parking camera, etc) I had a 20hr intensive course over one week, and Liz gave me the confidence, skills, and knowledge to pass first time, having only ridden motorbikes before. If anyone is thinking about an intensive course, look no further. Get yourself booked in with Liz ASAP!!

Liz was a great driving instructor. Made the process enjoyable and provided great insight and advice to help me progress my skills ready for the test. B.D.S. made the process prior to starting lessons really easy. Great experience!

I passed first time with BDS with 0 faults after a 25 hour course. Thoroughly enjoyed the lessons; massive thanks to Liz and the rest of the team at BDS for their hard work!

Couldn’t fault Liz at all, she kept me calm, had me laughing and was a really good teacher. I passed first time today after a 20 hour course and owe it all to Liz! Thank you so much! Xx

I passed my test with BDS, my instructor was Liz and she was fantastic from the second I sat in the drivers seat, although I had plenty of past experience I was no where near the standard required and thanks to Liz’s knowledge and patience I was ready in time for my test and I successfully passed. For anyone that is nearly test ready I highly recommend an intense course with Liz
