What to expect on your first lesson

So your lesson is booked!

The worry may be starting to set in. Feel free to contact me through Total Drive at any time before your lesson if you have any questions.

Forty-eight hours before your lesson, you will receive a reminder that will invite you to check in and confirm your booking.

On the day, I will send you a message to tell you I’ve arrived.

For the first lesson, regardless of your level of ability, I will drive us to a safe area. On the way, we’ll have a chat, and hopefully, you'll relax. 

Once we arrive at the chosen area, we'll conduct a quick eye test for safety, and then you can take your time to get accustomed to the car. This will ensure you feel secure and prepared for the lesson.

If you're new to driving, then you’ll learn how to use the controls to move off and stop safely. Everyone is different, and we’ll tailor the lesson to your comfort and safety. Your unique experience is valued and will guide our learning process.

If you’ve previous driving experience, we’ll conduct an assessment before we go out on the road.

Don't worry, your progress will be regularly reviewed during our lessons. You'll also be encouraged to set your own goals as you progress, providing a clear roadmap for your learning journey.

After each lesson, we'll take a few minutes to review your progress and plan for the next one. Please remember that I'm always available between lessons if you have any questions or concerns.
