Becoming a good driver takes time and practice. There are various routes to this.
1. The old way
This is preferred by most schools as it is traditional and people expect to spend many months learning to drive. You would probably take 1 or 2 hour long lessons per week. Doing this will make for slower progress as you forget each time a good proportion of what you did before. The action of driving is also a psychomotor skill which needs intensive practice in the early stages, in order to become programmed to perform. On an hour a week this can take a very long time. At some stage the traditional instructor may mention tests and eventually when you are ready they will apply for a test for you . You will need to keep paying for lessons to keep the skill level whilst you wait for your test date, adding to the overall expense.
2. Fast track method
With this you block book a course suited to your timetable and your needs. The whole course can take a week to a couple of months. All your training is planned and a driving test is arranged , which can be changed if needed. If you have the option of private practice it is recommended at an appropriate time and under the guidance of the instructor. You make rapid progress because of there being minimal gaps between sessions, however you get time to think, rest and read about what you’ve done on the lessons.
With this approach longer session lengths are adopted so you get a much greater range of driving experience and are even more ready to take the test when the time arrives.
We use mock testing regularly and from a quite early stage so that you are fully ready for the test situation.
This method has proven to be the most effective and economical way to teach driving. You will become a safe and confident driver quite quickly whilst enjoying the experience.
