Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n
\n
\n

What are the minimum requirements to start driving lessons?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

You must be at least 17 years of age before you can enrol on your driving course. You will also need a provisional driving licence.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

Are you an ADI (Approved Driving Instructor)?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

I am ADI approved by the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA). My badge is displayed on the windscreen as proof that I\u2019m a fully qualified driving instructor.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

What is a 1-2-1 session?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This means we won\u2019t be carrying other passengers, and your lesson is catering to only your needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How do I book my theory test?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

To book your theory test head over to the Gov.UK website and apply online. You will need your provisional licence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How do I study for the theory test?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

I recommend reading the Highway Code at least once to understand the rules. DVSA has produced a theory test handbook which is tailored to the 50 multiple choice questions. There is a range of computer and mobile apps to test your knowledge. Put in the hours and make the most of these accessories.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n
\n

How can I apply for a provisional driving licence?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

To get your provisional licence you can apply at the GOV.UK website or complete a D1 form at the post office and send it to the DVLA with your proof of identity and a passport-sized photo.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

What can I expect from you as an instructor?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

You will have a lesson with proper instructions, well-thought techniques which you will use for years after passing. Nervous beginners are well looked after, I will teach you how to gain full control of the car to help you pass your driving test with ease. At the end of each lesson, I will give you feedback on your strengths and areas to concentrate on.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

Do you teach manual or automatic?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Automatic at the moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How long is the theory test valid?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

It is valid for two years. If you do not pass your practical test within this period, you will need to re-take the theory test.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
