Instructor bio
Hi, my name is Arthur. Prior to being an instructor, I was a truck driver. I have always been self-employed, contracting to larger companies. Truck drivers are highly skilled professionals who can manoeuvre large vehicles with precision. In addition to this, we are exposed to all kinds of traffic, road conditions and weather. I also am a fork-lift driver, working part-time in this role. The extensive driving experience I gained has been invaluable when teaching my learners.
Over the years, I have trained many family and friends to drive as it was something I enjoyed doing and found very rewarding. I take teaching very seriously, emphasising the importance of your own safety as well as of others on roads. Teaching safe driving skills to learners and consequently send safer and sensible drivers on roads is my passion. We will focus on road safety, the different strategies and techniques you can use to reduce the risk of incidents.
I have experience with people from all walks of life, and across all different ages. I enjoy meeting new people and helping them to achieve their independence. The most rewarding part is the joy my students have when they pass their test.

Learn in your car
Learning in your own car can be a good idea if:
- You are a confident learner driver about to take a driving test
- You are on a provisional or unrestricted licence
- You have a new car to familiarise yourself with
Learning in your own car is not suitable for inexperienced or new learner drivers.
Our instructors are happy to offer lessons in your car if it is registered, roadworthy, comprehensively insured & clean. Our instructors reserve the right to refuse instruction in your car if they believe your driving skills or vehicle condition are a safety risk. The instructor may wish to conduct one or more lessons in their own vehicle prior.
To learn in your own car, simply add a lesson note upon booking.

Driving lessons at night (between sunset and sunrise) count for only 1 hour of night driving. The other 2 hours are added to your day driving hours.
