Why?
A Love for Driving & Desire to Teach
I'm proud to be an award-winning driving instructor, born and based in Leeds who's passionate about helping people learn to drive for life. From a young age, I knew that this was my dream job, and I've dedicated my career to helping others achieve their own driving dreams. In fact, I'm thrilled to be ranked among the top 2 best driving instructors in Yorkshire & The Humber, as recognized by the Intelligent Instructor Awards.
But more than just receiving awards, what really drives me is my commitment to teaching safe and confident driving skills that last a lifetime. I believe that driving is a privilege, not just a test to pass, and I'm honored to guide learners through every step of the process. And if you're a fan of driving puns, you'll be glad to know that I share your sense of humor - so let's get revved up and start learning!
My Own Training & Development
My Commitment To Learning & Development
As a dedicated driving instructor, I know that staying on top of my game means keeping my skills sharp and my knowledge up-to-date. That's why I spend much of my free time pursuing a wide range of CPD courses and activities that can help me become an even better instructor. Recently, I'm proud to say that I completed my BTEC Level 4 in Coaching For Driving Development, which has given me new insights and techniques for helping learners achieve their full potential on the road.
