“The most important criteria for me when searching for lessons was finding a Driving School that had good reviews!

I found that Drive Smart Motoring were able to accommodate lessons to fit around my busy schedule. The school were referred to me by a friend. My Driving Instructor Stuart Falconer gave very detailed instructions compared to lessons I had previously that I received abroad. I really liked that we discussed my objectives at the start of each lesson and then reviewed my driving at the end of the lesson. Stuart was very patient and listened to my concerns, addressing any questions I may have had.

Having lessons with Drive Smart Motoring means you’ll have a Driving Instructor who is always on time, with patience and a car that is easy to manoeuvre with lessons also being thorough.”

“The most important for choosing Drive Smart Motoring was because of the good reviews I read and through recommendations.

My learning experience was much better than I anticipated it would be. I was very nervous at the thought of driving before I actually tried it! My Driving Instructor Stuart Falconer had very good teaching methods and made sure we covered every manoeuvre thoroughly. He also gave me the freedom to practice them all at my own pace.

I will definitely be recommending Stuart to others as he was unbelievably patient and helped me put my nerves (and road rage ha ha) at ease!! He is friendly, patient and relaxed – a fantastic instructor. No improvements needed!!!!”

“The most important criteria for when choosing a Driving School was being able to see the latest customer reviews along with the date the students had passed.

In addition to this it was important to have clear interaction through the website and email. Personally having seen lots of customers smiling with their pass certificates along with the calm self confident picture of Stuart I knew who I’d choose!

Each lesson my instructor Stuart Falconer would make me aware of any bad habits I had or fears/ anxiety and would educate me on ways to improve for safe driving. His teaching methods were helpful and enjoyable. I would recommend Stuart to anyone looking for high quality driving lessons. He is very friendly and calm with his character and experience helping to grasp the driving skills easily.

You Ask – We Answer

Will I Drive On My 1st lesson?

Yes, you will definitely be driving on your first lesson.

If you are new to driving, your Instructor will drive you to a suitable location to get you started. It’s vital that your first few lessons are conducted in an area that will ensure your success and build your confidence.

Your Instructor will take a few minutes to record your licence details, test your eyesight and explain how to adjust your seat, head restraint and make sure you are comfortable.

He/she will then explain the controls that you will need to operate during your first lesson.

You will then be given a briefing on the move off and stop procedure with a short discussion to ensure you understand what is required. Your Instructor will then give you full talk through and guide you through your practical driving session. You will be able to learn at your own pace and your lesson will progress as and when you feel ready.

All your lessons will be structured using our unique ALS (Accelerated Learning System) to ensure you receive the maximum value for your money. Your early lessons will be in quiet areas, mainly on housing estates so you can build your confidence.

Full details on our unique Accelerated Learning System can be accessed by watching the main video on this page titled ‘Save Your Time and Money’.

Do You Offer A Block Booking Discount?

Yes, we do.

We suggest that if possible, you purchase a block of ten hours to benefit from the £10 discount. If for any reason you are not delighted with your instructor and your tuition, I will make a refund and any unused lessons purchased will also be refunded.

Full lesson pricing details can be found by clicking the ‘Lesson Prices’ button just above the four contact methods.

Do you offer 1 hour lessons?

No, we only offer 2 hour lessons as that represents the best value for your money.

Do you offer a money back guarantee?

Yes, we do.

In fact, we offer an industry leading 9 Star Guarantee and I will offer you a refund on EVERY lesson you take unless you are delighted with both the tuition and service you receive.

You can access full details of the 9 Start Guarantee by clicking the ‘Learn More’ Button at the top of this page.

How much are your lessons?

Please click the Yellow ‘Lesson Prices’ Button just above the four ways you can make contact for full lesson pricing details.

Do you offer lessons in an Automatic vehicle?

Yes we do

How many lessons a week do you recommend?

We find that taking a 2-hour lesson every week, proves to be the most successful strategy for most students. Two-hour lessons would be far more beneficial to you. You will learn far more for your money and you will also be test ready in half the time. You will have a decent amount of condensed learning in one go with time to digest and be focused for your next lesson. Sometimes students think that they would be unable to concentrate for a period of two hours, but this is why we would ‘chunk’ your lessons and break up the two hour slot to cover several topics, just as they do in the school curriculum to keep the learning fresh and focused.

Taking a regular weekly lesson has proven success as it provides continuity, the retention of knowledge and it will reduce your learning period. We will aim to offer you a regular lesson slot that you can book in advance and keep from the time you commence your lessons until you pass your test.

You will also be able to book more than one lesson slot per week should you wish to reduce your learning period and be test ready sooner. (Subject to instructor availability)

Do you offer lessons at weekends or just during the week?

No, unfortunately we are not able to offer lessons at weekends.

 

How many lessons do you think I will need?

It’s almost impossible to know until you begin your tuition.

 The DVSA suggest that the average is around 46 hours, but we find that most of our students are test ready much sooner. It really does depend on the individual, but our recommendation is to book ten hours of lessons and once completed, you will have a much better idea of the number of lessons you will need.

Where can I find payment options?

Bank Transfer:

Full details will be provided in the welcome letter.

Is it possible to pay the instructor on the day of my lesson?

We do not accept cash on the day of your lessons as all lessons require payment 48 hrs in advance.

Bank Transfer:

 

Do you come to me or do I have to come to you?

We will always pick you up at your preferred location. That could be from College, your home, work or anywhere else you choose. We will also drop you off at your preferred location.

Do you offer one-hour lessons?

Just to be clear and give you a balanced view, there is nothing wrong with 1-hour lessons, we just feel that they offer less value for your money as they prolong the learning period substantially. Another of the drawbacks is having to take time from your lesson to drive to a suitable location that is relevant to cover the topic and then having to drive back again.

We can offer 1, 1.5 and 2 hour lessons.

However, we can tailor the lessons to suit your needs?

Do you have female instructors?

No sorry, not at the moment.

What is your 1st time pass rate?

We are very proud of our 1st time pass rate and our instructors deserve a lot of credit for their hard work. It’s impossible to give the exact % as we have tests almost every day and it will continually change.

How long is the waiting list?

We prefer not to keep a waiting list. If you wish to take lessons with us check our availability on a regular basis.

How come you are more expensive than others?

I don’t think we are much more expensive than other schools. Not all lessons and instructors are the same. Quality and value are our main aims.

Do you teach people with learning difficulties?

Yes, we do but it will depend on the circumstances.

Our instructors do not pretend to be experts, or do they possess special training for certain disabilities. The best advice I can give is to contact us and discuss your requirements, so we can attempt to match a suitable instructor.

    Our instructors have a wide variety of levels of experience, however all bring the very latest techniques & methods to the table.

    Like many other instructors, we also provide discounts for beginners & new students & we offer a full money back guarantee if you are not entirely happy with our service. We also offer discounts for block bookings of 10 lessons or more.

    As mentioned in our opening paragraph we are particularly proud of our first time pass rate which is considerably above the national average. What is our secret? We have a proven system that ensures that our driving instructors follow our best practice guidelines & procedures.

    Our structured system will feature a complete plan of action broken down for you so you can see where you are up to with regard to your progress within the driving school syllabus & what you need to do to get to the level where you are ready to take your test.

    Our Instructors will issue you with a report card that will detail each step of your progress. It will demonstrate the areas that you might need more practice whilst also showing the things you are particularly strong with.

    We do encourage practice with family & friends provided it is used in a way that will assist & improve your driving abilities ready for your next lessons. Ideally you would practice the areas that have been highlighted for you on your report card so to reduce the length of time you need to cover them in your actual lessons.

    For example if you are struggling with a particular task then it would make sense to go somewhere to practice as often as you can whilst out with friends & family. Once you can demonstrate you are able to carry out the procedure confidently & error free then your instructor will then move you on to the next step of the syllabus.

    However if your instructor thinks you need more practice you will continue where you left off until you have mastered it. This example demonstrates the importance of using your practice time wisely.

    You should ensure that you complete your theory examination as quickly as possible. This will benefit you as it gives you a better understanding of the practical side. It will also allow for your instructor to book you in for your test as soon as you are ready without any unnecessary delays.
