“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.

Learning to drive can be exciting but a little bit daunting at the same time. However, there is no need to worry unnecessarily about learning to drive. Learning to drive is probably going to be one of the most worthwhile things you will ever do. Once you have passed your driving test you will take for granted the ability to drive and it will become a second nature to you. However, before you start planning your first road trip, you will need to start having driving lessons with a qualified driving instructor in Putney. There is a huge number of driving instructors in Putney for you to choose from but you want to find the right one for you. Each driving instructor has a different teaching style and you may want to try out a couple of different instructors before you settle on one in particular. Some driving instructors offer a taster lesson before you decide to book in with them. This gives you the chance to see how they structure their driving lessons and how you get on with them. You want a driving instructor who you feel comfortable with and who you have a good rapport with.
