If you are shopping around for a driving instructor/driving school, you are doing the right thing.  The pupil will be in the car for a period of time with the instructor and trust is of utmost importance. 
Here are some of the key things to look for when calling around...

1) How long have they been working as a driving instructor?  Our instructors have a minimum 
    of 8 years experience.  They take their job seriously as this is their full time job, not fitting     around other things.

2) What is their pass rate?  We are proud to have an excellent pass rate with our pupils.

3) Are they fully qualified or are they a trainee instructor, charging you the full rates and using
    you as a 'guinea pig'.   All of our instructors are FULLY QUALIFIED, DSA Registered,
    Approved Driving Instructors who have been Criminal Record Bureau (enhanced) checked.
    This can be checked as all of our instructors display a GREEN badge on the windscreen.

4) Your instructor should be approachable.  You should be able to feel confident enough to
    ask questions and someone with whom you feel comfortable interacting with.  Our
   instructors have a professional approach, not just in their teaching but their all round
   mannerism.  We will always make you feel at ease. 

5) Communication skills is very important for the understanding of subjects. The depth of your
    knowledge relies on how well information is communicated from them to you.  Our
    instuctors are excellent communicators.  All coming from business backgrounds previously,
    they understand how important this is.  Communication is they key to success.

6) Tuition vehicle.  A driving school vehicle should be well maintained, have dual controls and
    should be changed often so its relatively new.  Comfort for both instructor and pupil should
    be considered as well as ease of use, especially for manouvers.   We use the brand new
   model "60 plate (2010 model) Citreon C3 VTR+ diesel as our tuition vehicle, which has been
   fitted with dual controls and air conditioning for comfort.

7)  Your instructor should be both polite and patient.   Ours are!

8) Preparation.  A good instructor should assist you with more than just practical lessons. 
    We  can assist with the Theory Test by giving all of our pupils free online access to practice
    their theory questionsand hazard perception test, free online access to the Highway Code
    and  and we will give you handouts and training aides to our pupils to assist with their
    lessons at NO additional cost.
