“I passed my test on the first attempt after driving lessons with Rod. He is a great instructor. I learned so much in a short time. He is patient and helpful. Lesson felt comfortable and I was able to progress in my own pace.”
Annette, Bletchley
Whether you are 17 or 70, it is always the right time to get mobile. So talk to us about how we can help you. It doesn't matter if you have never taken the wheel of a car before, or if you just need some final coaching before your test, we can help. And don't forget your theory. Plenty of apps can help you, but if you want 1 to 1 assistance, we can set up zoom calls to augment your independent learning.
The familiar cockpit of our cars could be very different from driving your own. For a start, every pedal, instrument, dial and button could vary slightly, putting you just a little bit out of your comfort zone. So, as long as you have a car that you are insured to drive, we can offer lessons in them to familiarise you with your environment so that you can safely and confidently hit the road. This would best work for those with a reasonable level of competence since there is no safety net of the dual controls in your car.
The price of fuel is on the up, and so is the cost of everything else too. So for those times that you need to take your car out, we can help get your miles-per-gallon down with a comprehensive package of hints, tips and driving practises, helping you cut costs at every turn!
If you have taken a break from driving for whatever reason, if you are nervous about a particular element of your driving - motorways or reverse parking for example, if you have only driven abroad, or simply want a gentle steer away from any bad habits you might have gotten over the years, we can help.
“I passed my test 3 years ago and haven’t driven since. I needed to drive for a new job so booked in 3 refresher lessons with Rod. I was extremely nervous about driving again and Rod immediately made me feel confident and comfortable. He was very patient and very informative. I have dyslexia (so find processing information difficult) and Rod was able to help me visualise and understand what I needed to know and do and adapted to my way of learning. I would highly recommend Rod as an instructor - he was amazing. Thank you Rod, I feel so much more confident and ready to take on the roads.”
Hatty, Deanshanger
It was either a moment of brilliance. Or a mid life crisis. After 20 years in film and television, I wanted a change, something rewarding, something that was different everyday, providing value to people's lives - and working with people face to face. What an amazing choice! I have had the privilege of enabling some wonderful students get to pass their tests. But I firmly believe that what I do is not just about passing the test. Obviously that is important, but what I want to do is to enable you to continue learning so that you continue improving past your test date, long after I am no longer sitting next to you. And we will do that at a pace and style suited to you. It's not a competition, it is all about you. So long as we are always safe, let's make it as fun as possible. So join us, learn with us, stay safe with us and enjoy the ride!
