We also offer a beginners offer for the first two hours for £37 plus FREE study material for your theory test! Call us on 0800 211 8717 to book your driving lesson or book online.

When should I book my theory test?

You can take your theory test before lessons or during, it’s up to you. When you learn with us, you get free access to our theory study programme. We recommend doing plenty of revision before you take your test and you will need to pass your theory before you can book the practical.

It depends on the individual and their ability and confidence, we will aim to get you to test level as soon as possible. We teach you to be a safe and considerate driver and work on areas of driving you may find difficult. The DVSA says it usually takes 45 hours of lessons to learn and 22 hours of practise.

Ideally you should have 1-2 hours on a weekly basis, but it’s not essential and you can tailor them at a pace that suits you. You could have more hours in a week or do alternate weeks, it will depend on how quickly you want to progress to test level. We are able to work around your lifestyle and availability to work out a schedule that works for you. We suggest pre-booking your lessons, so you can guarantee a spot with your instructor. If you book in a block of ten hours, you’ll save £15 on the usual price, a great way to get your lessons locked in and save money!

We are based in Clacton and as your test will be in Clacton, we will spend time driving around Clacton and getting you used to the common test routes. Depending on the length of your lessons and what we will be covering – we may drive around the surrounding areas, so you are able to experience both town and village traffic and roads. This will also help to prepare you for driving around your hometown when you pass your test and familiarise you with the roads.

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
