Darren is an amazing teacher and individual! He approaches his students with a great attitude and great patience! Unfortunately I had to discontinue our lessons but it certainly isn’t a reflection of his teaching, when things are better in life I’d love to return to Darren’s lessons 😌

I really liked Darren. He was the only "pro" who drove to my house to teach me and what a surprise he was. He was prepared,polite, and taught me quite alot in the hour we had together. I can't wait for another lesson and would highly recommend him.
