About.
I am a fully qualified driving instructor based in Trowbridge and I am registered by the DVSA.
My goal is to get you to pass your driving test. Your driving lessons will take place in and around your town and Trowbridge Driving Test Centre, I will coach and teach you through all the skills you need to be an amazing learner driver and give you the confidence to be the best and safest driver you can be.
Lessons will be conducted in a dual controlled manual gear box car with myself, your driving lessons will be delivered in a professional manner, I use Total Drive to record your progress, this system also allows you to reflect on your performance allowing me to tailor your tuition to meet your needs.
My driving school is fully independent meaning from your first enquiry right though to your test you will speak directly with me, rather than a head office, I teach my lessons with a relaxed and enjoyable style, which has led to 5 star reviews across social media and google.
Feel free to contact me via the form at the bottom of this page or send me a message to 07706 487319, and we can hopefully get you on the road.

The Process.
Lets Begin.
Apply for a provisional license from the DVLA, follow the link below for all the information you need. https://www.gov.uk/apply-first-provisional-driving-licence Check you can read a number plate from 20m away. Contact me to chat about lessons and what is involved. Your 1st lesson, you will get used to the controls in my car and will get the car moving, change gear and learn how to stop the car, and depending on your progress look at junctions and everyones favourite... ' Hill starts'.
The Theory Test.
There are 2 sections to The Theory Test. Multiple Choice The Theory Test pass mark is 86%, so you'll need to answer 43 out of 50 multiple choice questions correctly to pass. The questions will cover topics that include, safety, road signs, attitude to driving and much more. Hazard perception section involves reacting (clicking) to video clips. In order to pass the hazard perception test, you must get at least 44 points out of a maximum of 75. Each hazard on the videos has a maximum of five points allocated to it, The amount of points you receive depends on the timing you spot the hazard, in the clip. . You need to pass both parts to pass the theory test. (Both must be passed at the same time/same test) There will need be some revision involved (which I will help you with). You can find books, mobile apps and websites that can help with your preparation.
