“Ivan was more of a coach and mentor than an instructor”After having a bad experience with another instructor, I met Ivan Flanagan who was patient, understanding and methodical in his approach to instructing me. Having a full time job Ivan was always flexible with timings of lessons and on a number of occasions it was close on 19:30 when we completed. What I liked most about Ivan was his approach and teaching style; he was more of coach and mentor then an instructor. Always talking through manoeuvres, via the use of diagrams prior to doing them which was a massive help. And after every lesson Ivan wanted feedback from me on how I felt the lesson went and what I felt we needed to focus on at our next lessons ‘’after which Ivan would give his feedback’’, which built my confidence. Confidence is what you need to pass your test and that is what Ivan instills in you. Jay Carneiro, Kingston Upon Thames, Surrey |

Areas to do controls/Moving off & Stopping
Kerfield Square and Kerfield Crescent are very quiet roads on which to practice the basics of driving such as moving off, stopping and learning how to use the controls.
Left/Right turns and emerging at T-Junctions
Affinity Driving School recommends the following circuit for carrying out turns and emerging at T-junctions:
Begin on Camberwell Station Road heading away from Camberwell New Road. Drive to the end of the road where it meets Denmark Road at a T Junction. Turn right here onto Denmark Road and then take the first left onto Paulet Road. Follow this road and turn left at the T Junction where it meets Lilford Road. Driving along Lilford Road, take the first left onto Carew Street.This road brings you back to Denmark Road. Turn left here onto Denmark Road and then shortly afterwards turn right (the first turning on this road) which is Camberwell Station Road again.
This circuit provides a tried and tested method for allowing you to practice steering, MSPSL and peep and creep techniques.
Meeting Traffic
When two cars meet and yet there is only room for one to pass, this is known as meeting traffic. The body language of the other car is key to knowing how to proceed. Morna Road and Crawford Road are suitable for practicing this aspect of driving.
Roundabouts
Knatchbull Road, Denmark Road, Flodden Road and Calais Street meet at a roundabout where the student can practice and gain a good understanding of how to negotiate and cross them safely. Priorities, positioning and the appropriate signals to use can be practiced here.
Pedestrian Crossings and use of Signals
Camberwell New Road offers plenty of pedestrian crossings for students to practice handling.
Areas to do Maneuvers
