I had the luck to learn from one of your instructors,Phil, for my C license which i must say it was a rather difficult exam for me.
I was impressed by the professionalism and patience Phil had with me given the fact that English is not my first language and he had to repeat the same thing more than once and although I made foolish mistakes he never got upset or angry and he always encouraged me saying : "that's is why we are here,to learn,so don't worry about it".
I first met him at my CPC practical exam and i knew straight away that he is a great instructor by the way he was explaining, teaching
