Beginner driving lessons

At ACM Driving School, I offer beginner driving lessons designed for those who are just starting their driving journey. My approach is to create a calm and supportive atmosphere allowing you to grasp the basics at your own pace. These lessons cover essential skills, including vehicle controls, road signs, and safe driving techniques. Each session builds your confidence and prepares you for the upcoming driving test. You will learn crucial manoeuvres and gain a strong foundation in road safety. Together, we’ll progress through the driving syllabus, ensuring you feel well-equipped to hit the road independently.

Mock driving tests

To ensure you are confident and ready for your real driving test, I provide mock driving tests that simulate the actual experience. These sessions allow you to familiarise yourself with the format and expectations of the DVSA driving test. During the mock test, I evaluate your performance and provide constructive feedback on areas for improvement. This practice will help alleviate any anxiety you may have about the test day. By undergoing a mock test, you’ll gain valuable insights into your strengths and weaknesses, giving you the preparation needed to pass with flying colours.

Defensive driving classes

My defensive driving classes focus on enhancing your skills to handle various driving scenarios safely. These lessons equip you with techniques to anticipate potential hazards and react appropriately. Understanding the importance of defensive driving can significantly reduce the risk of accidents and improve your overall responsiveness on the road. We will cover critical concepts such as safe following distances, situational awareness, and effective communication with other road users. These skills are invaluable not only for passing your driving test but also for becoming a responsible and skilled driver in your everyday life.

Night driving lessons

Night driving presents unique challenges, and I offer specialised night driving lessons to help you navigate them safely. In these sessions, you'll gain experience driving in low-light conditions, which can be significantly different from daytime driving. You'll learn techniques to improve visibility, manage glare from oncoming headlights, and respond to the heightened risks associated with night driving. With my guidance, you’ll build confidence and skills to drive safely and effectively after dark, preparing you for all driving conditions.

Automatic transmission lessons

For those who prefer a more relaxed driving experience, I offer automatic transmission lessons that focus on the unique handling of these vehicles. Automatic cars are becoming increasingly popular for learners due to their ease of use. In these lessons, I'll teach you how to operate an automatic vehicle, including accelerating, braking, and understanding how the transmission works without a clutch. This option allows you to concentrate more on developing safe driving habits without the added complexity of manual gear changes, making it an excellent choice for many learners.

Refresher driving courses

If you are returning to driving after a break, my refresher driving courses are tailored just for you. These lessons are designed to help you regain your confidence and adapt to any changes in road rules or vehicle technology that may have occurred during your absence. Together, we will review essential driving skills, assess your comfort level, and identify areas for improvement. By the end of the course, you will feel prepared and empowered to drive safely again, whether it’s for daily commutes or longer trips.

Parallel parking lessons

Parallel parking can be a daunting task for many new drivers, which is why I offer targeted lessons on this essential skill. These sessions focus on the techniques required to successfully park your vehicle in tight spaces. Through practical exercises, I'll guide you step-by-step through the process, helping you to develop your spatial awareness and confidence. With my expertise, you'll learn how to approach, position, and park your vehicle accurately. By the end of the lessons, parallel parking will feel far less intimidating, and you’ll be able to tackle it with ease.

Intensive driving courses

For those looking to accelerate their driving proficiency, I provide intensive driving courses designed to cover all necessary skills in a condensed timeframe. These courses are ideal for individuals who want to learn quickly, such as those preparing for an upcoming driving test or needing to gain confidence before long journeys. I tailor each intensive course to meet your specific requirements, ensuring that all key topics are covered thoroughly. By immersing yourself in driving lessons over a short period, you can quickly build the skills, knowledge, and confidence required for safe independent driving.
