Rick Dallaston

Driving Instructor - Harrogate & Knaresborough

Hello,​ ​I’m​ ​Rick​ ​and​ ​I​ ​am​ ​a​ ​recent​ ​member​ ​of​ ​Learn​ ​Driving​ ​UK​ ​team.​ ​

I​ ​am​ ​a​ ​married,​ ​father​ ​to​ ​2​ ​daughters​ ​and​ ​a​ ​son​ ​and​ ​have​ ​been​ ​driving​ ​for​ ​over​ ​30​ ​years.​ ​
I​ ​passed​ ​my​ ​car​ ​driving​ ​test​ ​aged​ ​18​ ​and​ ​my​ ​motorbike​ ​test​ ​aged​ ​26.​ ​I​ ​have​ ​also​ ​completed​ ​a​ ​motorbike​ ​safety​ ​course​ ​with​ ​North​ ​Yorkshire​ ​Police.​ ​

In​ ​my​ ​spare​ ​time​ ​I​ ​am​ ​restoring​ ​a​ ​motorbike,​ ​learning​ ​to​ ​play​ ​the​ ​drums​ ​and​ ​am​ ​a​ ​keen​ ​DIYer.​ ​I​ ​really​ ​enjoy​ ​just​ ​spending​ ​time​ ​with​ ​my​ ​family​ ​and​ ​our​ ​3​ ​dogs.​ ​

I​ ​have​ ​always​ ​enjoyed​ ​driving​ ​and​ ​the​ ​fantastic​ ​freedom​ ​it​ ​brings.​ ​People​ ​who​ ​know​ ​me​ ​say​ ​I​ ​am​ ​calm,​ ​patient​ ​and​ ​knowledgeable.​ ​

I​ ​am​ ​looking​ ​forward​ ​to​ ​helping​ ​you​ ​achieve​ ​your​ ​driving​ ​goals.

I easily give Rick Dallaston 5 Stars!
⁠I Found Learn Driving UK on Google. I passed first time and I now feel excited! A little nervous about the idea I can go anywhere I want by myself - but also that I have this whole new freedom to experience. Rick, you’ve been so patient and kind all the way through. I never felt like it was just about getting to the test, it’s always been about becoming a safe, confident driver. I feel like I’ve learnt so much over the time you’ve been teaching me - and we’ve had a laugh along the way too. It’s been fab. I’d recommend to anyone.

Rick was recommended to me by my family & friends. Rick was really great and I passed first time. Rick was friendly, understanding and gave clear instructions/ guidance.

My wife recommended me to Rick based on her experience with him. Pretty excited and relieved that I passed my test at the first attempt. Well, Rick has all it takes to teach. He is wonderful with his approach, helping you to gain confidence and providing the necessary help one needs to pass. Well, I could use Rick's kind of patience in my marriage 🤣. Still wonder how he stays so calm, even in difficult situations he helps you to maneuver it professionally. Wish he can teach manual too in case I decide to change to a manual some day😁.

I rate Rick 5 🎖🎖🎖🎖🎖
I found Learn Driving UK through Google. ⁠I am very happy
Rick is calm, he was very supportive, he was able to understand my weakness and he helped me turn it to strength. He never stopped encouraging me, he never judged me, he actually deserves more than 5 stars.

Rick is an excellent driving instructor. He was recommended from another manual driving instructor. I am so grateful and glad that I passed the test first time. Rick was very supportive, patient and also calm and he was one of the best driving instructors I ever had.
