"made me feel completely at ease"

“Dear Sir or Madam

I am writing to thank the school for providing me with the skills to pass my driving test.

Having failed my driving test twice thirteen years ago and having not been behind the wheel since, I was quite wary about trying again. But my instructor, Martin, made me feel completely at ease. The course had more structure than my lessons years ago and, I have to say, the professionalism and manner in which Martin teaches had me wishing I'd been able to learn from someone like him from the start. I think he must be the most patient person I have met!”

Anne Chamberlain, Morden, Surrey.

Driving Lessons For Complete Beginners

Start at any age, start with confidence, start here

No two learners approach their first lesson in the same state of mind. Some are bristling with enthusiasm; some are rigid with fear. Most lie somewhere in between.

At Affinity, we take each learner driver as they come. If they're up to it, we let the eager ones push ahead. But we keep the pace slow and measured for those who prefer to build their confidence in stages. In the end, everyone should get to the same place: to a standard that's good enough to pass your driving test.

For us, driving tuition is about treating drivers as individuals and giving them confidence in their ability to read the road and control the vehicle. It's about trust and teamwork: you and your instructor working together towards a common goal.

Old or young, everyone's equal behind the wheel
Our learner drivers come from all age groups and all walks of life. We like that kind of variety: it makes our day more enjoyable. It doesn't matter whether you've just passed your 17th birthday or your 57th, we're ready to give you the time and tuition you need to move from complete beginner to qualified driver.

If you're a new learner driver, you'll have our undivided attention for as many hours as it takes to acquire the skills you need. Everyone is entitled to first-class new learner tuition at Affinity.

Cast off your preconceptions
Everyone has an idea of the type of driver they are. But we won't be influenced by your own opinion of your ability – or lack of it. We'll tailor your tuition to the real driver sitting next to us in the car. If you're over-confident, we'll calm you down; if you're filled with anxiety, we'll coax out the superhero that lies within.

For new learner driving tuition that's right for you, call us now on 0800 511 8800. Together, we'll take you a step nearer to passing your driving test.
