Why Finding the Right Driving Instructor in Aldershot is so Important

Posted in: Driving Lesson Aldershot.

Learning to drive can be tough. Not only are there the nerves and high emotions of being out on the road for the first time, but the pressures of money and time meaning you want to learn quickly and pass on your first go.

And the key to being a good driver and passing with flying colours is to find the right driving instructor.

Many people believe they can pass their driving test easily by learning with family and friends. But this can be a big mistake. Not only would you be learning in a car ill-equipped to deal with a learner driver (and have to fork out for the high insurance premiums), but your friends may not be teaching you the correct procedures. We are often guilty of picking up bad habits after we have been driving for many years, and passing these on to a learner driver can be unsafe and a waste of time when it comes to taking the driving test.

By learning to drive with one of Aldershot’s qualified driving instructors, and as part of an authorised driving school, you will receive the expert tuition you need, the support to get you through your theory and practical tests, lessons focussed entirely on your needs and a dual control car designed to help you learn safely. You may even qualify for a discount on your motor insurance when you pass.

So how do you find the right driving instructor in Aldershot?

Here are a few things to look out for:

• It seems like an obvious thing to say, but you should like you’re driving instructor and get on well with them. After all, you will be spending many hours in an enclosed environment with them and it is the driving instructor’s job to build your confidence and help you through the ups and downs of learning to drive. In the unlikely event that you do have any concerns, you’re driving school should be on hand to assist.
• Choose a local driving instructor to where you live or work. For instance, a driving instructor in Aldershot should have an excellent knowledge of the roads in that area. Being able to choose a quiet Aldershot neighbourhood for those early lessons will really help your confidence grow quickly, and ideally you will be familiar with the roads where you will be taking your test by the time you are ready.
• Find a driving instructor with lesson times to suit you. Again, learning with a local driving instructor to Aldershot if you live in Aldershot makes a lot of sense. They will be conveniently placed to pick you up from home or work and fit around your schedule.
• Remember that all driving instructors who charge for lessons need to be approved by the Driving Standards Agency (DSA).

The right driving instructor is guaranteed to help you get that all important license quickly and with excellent driving skills that will stay with you for life.
