About David

Hi, I'm David Blackshaw. I'm a fully qualified Government Approved Driving Instructor running my own independent LDC driving school in Derby. I've been specially trained by LDC in their LD System and the latest student-centred learning techniques, which helps you learn quickly and enjoy every lesson. I offer a range of options to suit different needs, from pay-as-you-go lessons to intensive courses. My most popular is the 30-hour Semi-Intensive Course, which I spread over 2 to 10 weeks so you can pass at a comfortable pace. I also provide access to the LDC online learning hub and apps, so you can prepare for your theory test and review driving tasks anytime. I cover Derby and surrounding areas like Mickleover, Chaddesden, Breadsall, Horsley, Littleover, Barrowash, and Alveston. I'm patient and friendly, and I'm here to help you become a safe, confident driver. If you're not sure where to start, I can even arrange a free, no-obligation home visit to chat through your options.
