Reasons to Learn in an Automatic Car

Choosing between learning in a manual or automatic car is the first big decision you will make about your driving journey. Automatic cars are increasingly popular, and for good reason! Without the need for clutch control and gear changes, automatic driving can be a lot easier for learners to get to grips with. This can be particularly beneficial if you are a very nervous pupil, as you can dedicate more time to simply building your confidence. With no need to constantly change gears, automatic cars can also be a great choice for built-up areas where you will be navigating busy roads.

  Highly recommend! I had Sally as my instructor and I couldn’t have asked for anyone better to learn with. She’s unbelievable patient and understanding, and helps with any concern or worry I had.

  I have trained with Michael for my driving instructor qualification. With his help and support, I have passed all my exams first time and in the final exam has achieved grade A. Michael has many years of experience teaching people to pass their L tests and helping driving instructors to qualify. He is very patient and knowledgable. It's never a dull conversation with Michael. Thank you for your help and kindness!

From learning the basics of how an automatic car works to getting out there on dual carriageways and country lanes, your instructor will provide highly personalised tuition.

Developing Safe Driving Habits

We’re firm believers in that the focus shouldn’t be on you just passing the test, but ensuring you become a responsible and safe driver for life. That’s why we focus on setting you up with the skills you need right from the start and nipping any bad habits in the bud before they can become hard to break. This will not only give you the best possible chance of passing your test but will also leave you fully prepared for real-world driving.

Your instructor will also be available to answer any questions and provide tips.

Testimonials

I was taught by Geoff for about 2 months and I went to my test and passed the first time with this company and I would highly recommend Geoff and the company ad he teaches really well, he ensures that you end up being a driver and not a learner and i felt that is a really respectable quality when it comes to a teacher. I could not say any bad experience and was extremely happy

Alen Thomas

For any one wanting to learn to drive but not sure who to go with I definitely recommend Nayland, with his great help I passed first time and in just over three months, the lessons were great I always looked forward to them as Michael is a lovely guy and very down to earth, and up for a laugh 🙂 but he is also very patient for any one who is nervous about driving. 🙂

Harriet Osborn Davies

Thanks a lot to Dave, very calm and professional instructor. Passed after 20h, would definitely recommend.

Mikolaj Witkowski

I passed my test first time, I didn’t need to use any other instructor as Michael gave me all the advice I needed, down to earth, practical and easy to understand. While learning to drive can be stressful, Micheal made it so easy for me. I enjoyed learning and looked forward to the lessons as they were really enjoyable, if you want to learn to drive with someone that will make it enjoyable and practical Micheal is the guy! guy.

Peter Callaghan

Before having Michael as a driving instructor I was with someone else! I was given his number through a recommendation, and his lessons gave me the confidence to pass my test! Michael has great prices and deals, to suit anyone! I have now been driving a year, and I have recommended many people to go with him and they have gone on to pass very fast! 🙂

Amy Cowlin

Massive thanks to Suzanne! Amazing instructor! Helped to boost my confidence and pass my test quickly! Highly recommend!
