Welcome to Hampshire Driving Lessons.

 

All possible precautions will be taken to ensure your safety regarding Covid19, in accordance with government guidelines.

This will remain on my site post Covid for future reference.

Please thoroughly read the page on Covid19 as listed in the menu.

 

I offer Basingstoke based Manual Driving Lessons in and around the local surrounding area.

I use a Manual Ford Puma Hybrid as my teaching vehicle, and I have over 30 years experience in Driving instruction and ADI instruction for both parts 2 and 3 Instructor Exams.

As a qualified driver, I hold the certificates from the four main different governing bodies.

I am also registered to conduct the Hampshire County Council Pass Plus Drivers Scheme.

I have previously conducted the on-road sessions for the Government Driver Awareness Course.

 

I offer a range of courses to suit everybody's needs.

It is my job to adapt to my students, and not their job to adapt to me.

I use "client based" teaching and coaching techniques to allow and encourage the student to develop their own judgements and abilities, while guiding them through each stage at their own pace.

Whether starting from scratch or developing existing skills, as a qualified Driving Instructor, I teach Driving as a skill for life, not just to pass a test.

I believe that everybody can learn to drive, you just need the right instructor.

 

If you are lucky enough to have access to a family car, or your own car, for additional private practice, this can improve your confidence and reduce your learning time.

With a little pre-planning by yourself, and with my guidance, we will make a good team, and as a result you can rapidly improve your progress.

Of course, the more time you allow for your theory study, the easier you should find the practical sessions.

 

Understanding the various aspects of driving is as important as being able to do it. Be prepared to allow time between lesons to reflect on your progress as this will help your development for next time.
