Harald Leeuwenburgh      (Ph or txt: 027 226 4316)     Testimonials

Being the owner of A1 Driving School Ltd, I am certainly very proud to be working with such a great team of professional driving instructors. With the increase of petrol prices and all other costs, we try to keep our prices at a reasonable level. I still believe our charge out rate for professional driver training is very good value for money and something everyone requires.
Apart from the everyday running of the company, I keep myself busy with driver training in automatic cars. I do specialist training for disabled people and work with occupational therapists. I also do assessments for people after they have been off the road for while. I drive a car with personalised number plate “A1 FUN”. I believe learning should be fun and enjoyable. People should look forward to the next time they are behind the wheel. This is all done in a safe environment of course.
When I am not on the road, I run courses for learners licences, defensive driving (Streettalk) or various other courses involving Unit Standards at high schools.
I enjoy being outside if I am not working, rollerblading, motorbike riding, skiing or going for a pushbike ride with my family.
