DRIVING LESSONS IN FAREHAM, GOSPORT & SURROUNDING AREAS

I am a fully qualified DSA Approved Driving Instructor with over 34 years experience of driving both in the UK and abroad. I am a member of the Driving Instructors Association.

It doesn’t matter whether you’re a novice or a more advanced driver who may be wishing to take a refresher course, perhaps not having driven for some time. Teaching is varied to suit your individual requirements so that you get the most out of your time in the car.

For further details about my driving lesson prices you can either follow this link or use the menu above.

Intensive driving lessons, semi-intensive driving lessons and individual driving lessons are all catered for, and support is also given in your theory revision with a DVD available for purchase to assist with your studies.

I have particular success where pupils have failed a driving test with other Driving Instructors, and following a short course of driving lessons with me, they have successfully passed their driving test on their first attempt with me.

I teach on a one to one basis in the car. I will not ask you to car share, and am always punctual and reliable. I always allow 30 minutes between each of my lessons to ensure that I can always arrive and start the lessons on time.

To pass your practical driving test, you must be able to drive Independently for about 45 minutes and complete two manoeuvres with 15 or fewer driving faults. Over 75% of my pupils have passed their practical driving test on their first attempt, compared with the national pass rate for the practical test of 46%. The Recent Pupil Successes gives special mention to those of my pupils who have recently passed the practical test with six or fewer driving faults - Well done.

You can apply for your Provisional Driving Licence online via the direct.gov.uk website up to three months before your 17th Birthday but it will not come into force until you are 17 years old.

On your first driving lesson I will need to see sight of your driving licence, so that I can take some details and this will then ensure that you are fully insured to drive my car.

When you are ready to book your theory test or practical driving test, always use the direct.gov.uk website as this will make sure that you do not pay any unnecessary booking agency fees to third parties for booking your driving test on your behalf.

In the Pupil Area you will find out the current waiting times for practical driving tests at Lee-on-the-Solent MPTC, Portsmouth and Southampton, as well as copies of the Show & Tell questions, In addition you will find an online copy of the Highway Code, and two Online Theory Tests to try. Registered Users of this website are also able to gain further access to Pupil handouts and download the Show and Tell Questions.

For more information, please complete this form and I will be in touch asap.
