Passed 1st time! Found Retro through the YouTube videos and so got a head start on learning some test route areas. By the time of my test, I think I had been round every route three times and learnt how best to navigate some tricky turns and roundabouts. Not just in these areas , I now feel confident about approaching tricky situations anywhere. For some lessons, I had Jack, a real nice bloke who helped me break some bad habits that the examiner would have picked up on. But I really have to give all the credit to Dave. First off is he's just a nice chilled old school instructor who really has a great skill in teaching. He calmly instructs every aspect of what I should be doing and how to do it. Breaks down roundabouts and tricky turns step by step and makes it all seem very easy. Some of these situations came up in my test, and I felt confident navigating them. On the morning of the test, we went over an area he thought would come up in the test and a certain corner I wanted to practice again, and they both came up. But the overall winner of the test was how calm and confident he made me, and that alone in the end was the deciding factor. It got to the point I was actually looking forward to the test, and we were waiting just generally chatting. The examiner I got wasn't particularly nice, quite abrupt and robotic, and very patronising, but nothing was phasing me. I had a few unusual situations on roundabouts, being flashed out with traffic still coming, people slingshotting around, and then cyclists turning up in awkward areas. Trucks and lorries coming opposite on corners, then dreaded temporary roadworks where they had left a cone too far across which if I had attempted to pass it was a sure fail. The message in this long story is from my eight days, theory Monday, to passing the next Tuesday is the Retro team gave me all the tools in which to deal with all the situations which arose in a calm confident manner so the grumpy examiner had no choice in which to pass me. I now feel I am a better driver by choosing Retro, to which I am grateful. I also feel confident in going forward into any assessment in the future. Thank you, Retro Commercial HGV Training . Drive Safe ????

Booked a refresher training course with Retro Commercial Training. I was offered a 4 or 6 hour course tailored to what I wanted to brush up on. I choose the 6 hour course option as I wanted to spend the day driving. I was offered lots of options as to what I wanted to achieve that day. I was offered to go through, tacho, drivers hours, coupling and un-coupling the trailer, reversing, motorway driving and narrow roads to name a few. But as I said you can tailor the course to suit your needs, this was for me was perfect. I had two instructors, both were fun to chat to and made me feel relaxed and confident from the minute I got behind the wheel great communication and clear instructions. I thoroughly enjoyed the day. Had a great time The best part of the day was when I realised that I was still a good confident driver and would like to get back  behind the wheel. I would definitely recommend booking a course with these guys if you wanted a refreshen up on your skills or confidence.

I done my class 2 category c training with retro over the Xmas period, which was very good. Spoke to Patrick the owner who set it all up for me. I had Dave who trained me in the lorry, he’s a very nice man, got my confidence up as I felt abit anxious as never drove a lorry before. Come test day on the 3rd January and I passed with 3 minors. Excellent company to do training with very reliable and efficient. Highly recommend

After failing my tests twice l started doubt myself and felt really sad about it, so decided to hear another opinion about my skills and contacted Patryk, what was great decision. He guided me through various places, repeated some aswell as l wanted to check those places twice. Working together we strengthened my driving weak points, also l have received useful tricks and other information which helps everytime while driving. Highly professional teacher! l have got my confidence back l passed my next test! ????????
