Driving Instructor for Folkestone - Andy Brown

Andy is the busiest and probably the hardest working driving instructor on our team.

He is our driving instructor for Folkestone, his hometown. As well as giving driving lessons in Folkestone, Andy gives driving lessons in Hythe, New Romney and the Marsh areas.

Year after year he gets more pupils through their driving test than any other instructor.

We think this is due to his great communication skills and competitive nature, as well as his patience. He says it's because he's a great driver and sets a good example.

You would never guess that in his spare time he is an orchid grower - a champion of course!

When asked by the nosy Big Red L office to tell us a secret, he mysteriously replied 'AJ the DJ!'. This, coupled with the fact that his chosen superhero name is Captain DJ, would imply that Andy had a bit of a cool life before he settled down to providing some of the best driving lessons in Kent. His favourite film is 'Die Hard', so if you're a Bruce Willis fan, Andy is certainly the instructor to chose!

He is also a registered instructor for KCC Pass Plus and the BTEC in Driving Science.

As yet he has somehow avoided providing us with a photo, so in the meantime we will sneakily follow him round with a camera until we get a decent pic. (Finally got this one of him in the office in March 2010)

We think Andy is a top instructor, but don't just take our word for it. Here's what one of his passed pupils had to say about him:
"I thought the service was excellent, the lessons with Andy were always enjoyable and I always left feeling more confident. I could not have done it without him."
- Lauren, Folkestone

"I was very pleased with Andy. He has a professional, friendly manner. I had been trying to pass my test for years, but lacked the confidence to take a test. I not only took my test but passed with very few faults. I attained this result because Andy's teaching skills were excellent." - Marya, Folkestone.
