I work as a driving instructor teaching learner drivers and I also occasionally teach people to be driving instructors. I’m doing both the teaching of learners and the teaching of new instructors. Many driving instructors work for driving schools through a franchise system. You pay the school a set weekly/monthly amount to be given a car and supplied with work. Driving can be fun and exciting, but it’s also one of the most dangerous things you’ll ever do nearly every day! Piers ensures all students are treated with care and respect, nurturing their confidence and burgeoning road skills to get results. The driving lessons start and finish at a location convenient to you. This is usually your home address but we can come to your school or office, just let us know. Your personal information gets managed in line with industry standards. We only use your contact details to contact you about your driver instructor authority and the industry. After the classes about theory knowledge, driving instructors help their driving students in practically learning how to drive a car individually. At the beginning, the driving instructor teaches the student how to use a steering wheel, how to reverse and how to park. We’re a professional body of working ADIs who have created a supportive space to train, represent, inform and protect driving instructors. Everyone has different needs when it comes to driving and therefore having the choice to meet your needs. Where possible, RED will offer you the flexibility that the majority of other schools cannot. If you’d like to discuss your training requirements, contact us on the number provided and speak to one of our advisers. RED offers a refreshing approach to driving tuition that will make you feel relaxed and eager to get on the road. Let’s see how many make it through based on official DVSA pass rates for April 2017 to April 2018. When I took my part 3 test I had done 60 hours with my trainer, spent 40 hours watching videos and had done 600 hours of lessons with real learners. After all that I just scraped through with the lowest grade. You may have to pay for fuel and tuition insurance while you’re doing parts 2 and 3. Track the performance of instructors on pass rates, cancellations and every pupils driving progress. At RED Driving School we can offer both automatic and manual driving lessons. When selecting an instructor, their schedule should work with yours—not the other way around. RED offers lessons that are flexible and can be customised to fit your schedule, whether you need weekly sessions or a more accelerated learning plan. Instructor trainers working at driving schools are not always bad, they’re just not the best. It will take a minimum of 40 hours of training for part 3 and it can easily be 60 to 100 hours of tuition. It won’t work because Google can detect when people are doing that and you can cap the daily amount. The potential downside is that you have to pay this amount no matter what. Despite the fact that they may not be supplying you with pupils and you have no money coming in you still have to pay the franchise fee. Lots of people didn’t start learning then which created a concertina effect where it now seems more people than ever are starting. People get provisional licences for all sorts of reasons such as wanting a form of ID or having it ready for when they want to learn to drive at a later date.

You draw the pupil’s attention to this and tell them to continue driving and not to brake at all when you reach the junction that is coming up. You explain that you’re going to do the braking because the other driver is too close and they must not touch the pedals at all. The number of driving instructors continues to fall year and year with more leaving the job now than ever before. A trial lesson provides a low-pressure environment to decide whether they’ll make your learning journey enjoyable, engaging, and ultimately successful. When I started 1stDrive back in 2005 it was cheap and easy to advertise online but things have changed. When you advertise online in search engines, your advert is displayed for free and you only pay when someone clicks on it. It works like a bidding system; you say how much you’re willing to pay per click and the people offering the highest have their adverts shown in the highest positions.
