Hi Linda,
Just wanted to say thank you for running such an interesting and greatly taught ground school last week! I think we all had great fun and I feel I learnt a lot from your expert methods and teachings. 
I will certainly be shouting your praises and making suggestions to anyone I meet to go and see you and I only wish I had heard of you earlier! 
Keep up the brilliant work, you’re a superstar! 
Best wishes, David

As a student already juggling piles of coursework and exams with my university, Linda’s five day course was the perfect solution. I had a really enjoyable week and left with all nine exams passed.

Linda presents a well prepared PPL Groundschool that evidently benefits from her considerable knowledge and experience. The course provides straightforward explanations that demystify some of the more complex aspects of the PPL theory, boasting the opportunity for successful exam completion. 2019

Perfect, very clear lessons. Great environment, partly due to small groups.
Thank you for a fine and instructive week.
Kind regards from the Netherlands. Dirk 2019

The instruction was clear and concise. Even the more abstract or complicated topics were explained in a simple and straight forward way. The environment is relaxed and comfortable…..a very pleasant experience.

Linda deserves the Nobel Prize for education!

This Lady Linda could teach Amelia Earhart a thing or two about flying! This was an amazing experience, I didn’t think I had it in me to learn all that I managed to but with Linda, I passed first time with flying colours. Don’t hesitate, just use her!

Fantastic, really enjoyed. Nice, no nonsense approach to it. I look forward to flying with the knowledge I’ve learnt.

A fantastic way to complete and pass all your ground school requirements for PPL. I recommend it to all PPL students.

A great week for me, very, very happy with the tuition in some very nice surroundings. Would definitely recommend you to teach others for their groundschool.

What a fantastic week. Linda has a unique capability of explaining complex ideas very clearly. I would highly recommend to anyone who struggles, to commit time to ground school. Linda and her team are true professionals

Excellent course and thoroughly recommended for anyone working full time who is finding it difficult to schedule time for ground school

An Excellent well presented course. Relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere helped to create a perfect learning environment. For a busy individual, this course is the only way to take the exams

I would advise any PPL student to do Linda Wheeler Ground school training. You learn a lot more than just reading the books. Also, it is great to be able to ask questions from someone with Linda’s experience

I did 4 exams in two days with Linda with 3 other students. The group was well managed and everyone got the time and attention they needed.
Right from the start Linda has a professional approach, to all she does and provides to students on her ground school days conveniently located in Gerrards Cross.
Her coaching is clear and concise explaining in practical terms the theory and concepts as well as giving the understanding one needs to be safe as a student pilot well beyond just passing the exam. Linda simplifies the subject and keeps it focussed but explains tricky bits by example and illustration until one masters the point. Good use of up to date facts and figures and current video clips and as well as sharing her aviation knowledge as former flight crew, Ops manager and current GA pilot.
I’d highly recommend Linda’s ground school days as very good value, effective and efficient way of learning the subject and passing the exams.
The bound notes provided for you to retain have a professional look and feel and are well thought out and to a consistent standard.
Based on this experience I am returning for my last 3 subjects shortly.

I am in full time work in London and have little spare time for after-work courses or tuition. Attempting to study on my own from the required text books proved to be a daunting task with limited results. Linda’s ground school provided me the perfect mix of theory and worked examples to enable me to get to grips with the most complicated of concept or calculation in a short space of time. So whether in full time work or simply looking for a refresher course, Linda’s ground school offers an extremely efficient and enjoyable way of learning and passing the exams required for PPL theory. By the end of the course you’ll never forget QDM, QDR, ….!

The course was perfect, exactly what I needed, not just in terms of knowledge and passing the exams but also for my confidence. Many thanks.

All aspects of the training was very well put together and all the exams were done in a week! CAN GET ON WITH FLYING! A great week, hard work but made easier by being in nice surroundings and Linda made the week very interesting and easy to digest

would recommend Linda Wheeler to anyone wishing to undergo PPL Groundschool

I have found the training very good, in depth but easy to follow. Breaks the information into small blocks with anecdotes for better recall

I approached the course being slightly daunted by the sheer amount of work to cover along with all the exam reading to be done. However, Linda provides professional calmness to the process, where the “daunting” is removed!

A quick and efficient method of learning and successfully passing the groundschool exams. Recommended!

Excellent and professional instruction in a friendly and comfortable environment. Content very well covered at a flexible time rate. Daily itinerary perfectly balanced for best performance (e.g. two subjects , one heavy and one light). Fantastic use of practical demonstrations.

The mix of subjects each day worked well heavy/light subjects balanced and as far as practical subjects that build on each other, were sequenced. Demureness and approach of Linda meant a positive atmosphere prevailed throughout.

Very informative and delivered by a knowledgeable instructor in a relaxed atmosphere

Totally relaxed week without the associated pressures you would expect.

Linda’s ground school was a breath of fresh air. Having read through the pilots manuals, I did not just want to pass the exams but instead wanted to understand the subjects, as they say **one day it may save your life**. I can hardly believe I’ve passed all my exams in 5 days.

The course was excellent for me, spent weeks studying books but Linda makes it more understandable and interesting. Relaxed atmosphere, excellent teaching style and all subjects explained well. Had an excellent week and would recommend Linda’s Ground School to everyone

Teaching methods was good. Explained each subject in high levels of detail. Encouraged each student to answer questions. Fun and enjoyable

Excellent week overall. Very informative, in depth and interesting. Would definitely recommend

I cannot recommend Linda highly enough. While respecting the full curriculum, she focuses on what you need to be a safe PPL pilot and offers a wealth of helpful explanations and tips.

Training was at the highest standard, made all the exams easier and a brilliant way of teaching. I would strongly recommend Linda to anyone looking to complete their PPL exams

Very satisfied with course and it’s presentation. Linda is a gifted educator. Concepts that perplexed me were very lucidly and concisely explained by Linda using appropriate metaphors, examples and props

My busy schedule inhibits me from going to weekly PPL theory lessons. My flight instructor at Vliegschool-Hilversum (Netherlands) recommended Linda Wheeler’s Ground School training course. In one week you should be able to pass your theory examines! Linda’s school has a well-designed and structured unique one week teaching program, making difficult subjects accessible to all. I have just finished a great week in the UK and have passed all the PPL theory examines with high scores. Thanks to Linda

The course content was easy to follow and the presentation relevant to the topic. I now feel confident going forward and completing my PPL

Great teaching style- In depth theory notes- Good examples and demonstrations- Calm and concise- Friendly

I find it really good when you do the drawings on the board as I can visualise them in the exam, so keep doing them!

Just a massive thank you for getting me through my final 3 exams; Flight Planning, Meteorology & Navigation – who’d have thought that the Whizz Wheel is now my best friend! The relaxed and informal vibe from you teaching at home was perfect, whilst at the same time very professional – perfect for me. Anyone undertaking a PPL needs a dedicated Ground School and Linda is fab. I have been trying to juggle a full time job, 3 kids and 9 exams for years; exams now done, it’s onto the flying!

I have never in my life been taught so well! I went through university struggling, I barely passed. I am dyslexic, which makes it difficult, I understood everything. Linda had everything organised to perfection. She teaches so well, it is incredible! I am so happy! I passed all exams and I could no have done it without her. Linda, you are brilliant, thank you!

The course content was extremely well thought out and impeccably delivered at just the right pace. There were ample opportunities to discuss specific things in more detail, if needed. In addition to the course content, Linda sprinkles the sessions with relevant, useful and thought provoking insight gained from her teaching and flying experience.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Linda Wheeler Ground school. Thank you Linda.

Completed all my PPL Exams today thanks to Linda Wheeler’s Ground School. Fantastic week and a great teacher. Now to crack on with the remaining hours before the GFT.

Brilliant week- from finding it all so challenging to so much simpler. Made it all so much easier to understand and given me a huge amount of knowledge in all the topics- enough that I feel confident with them all. Thank you

Was absolutely fun and clear, even to me, as I am a foreigner. Thank you

Impressed how much you can learn in such a short period of time. So much more effective than self-study. Would highly recommend.

I’m very happy with how the training has been given. Easy to follow & understand. Very useful.

I honestly thought I would struggle to get to grips and not pass one or two subjects. However, I felt entirely comfortable when sitting the exams and was much more confident once Linda had explained each subject in detail.

Very glad I did this, it cut out weeks of revision. Only wish I did this months ago. Thanks very much.

I had been studying for my exams by reading text books and looking at endless pages online but I really wanted to actually understand the subject rather than just pass the exams, Linda was a breath of fresh air, her teaching style is perfect for learning and understanding, seemingly stupid questions from me were met with the answer re explained until I got it. With her knowledge and teaching style I am very happy that I met Linda and that she helped me achieve all the exams with results that I would not have got near on my own. I thoroughly recommend Linda to anyone.
