Driving Instructors in Derby

Behind every successful test is an instructor. We think ours are the best and so do our pupils.

Below are details of some of our instructors who concentrate on driving lessons in Derby. With local knowledge rivalling that of taxi drivers, experience and professionalism beyond doubt and a passion for getting your through your driving lessons with a sense of achievement rather than fear, you're in good hands.

Things to think about when choosing a driving instructor:

• Will I get on with them ? First impressions count - all the comments below are from the instructors which will give you an indication of what they are like.
• Do they share same views/interests as me ? Having common interests can help break down communication barriers
• Are they strict enough for what I need (or conversely laid back enough) ? Some people need pushing a bit more, and some a bit less. Everyone is different. Our driving instructors can play both ends of the pipe so be sure to tell them.

Our driving instructors in Derby:

• John McCabe

• David Higgins

• Gill Hepworth

John McCabe

John's comments :

"Hi, my name is John I cover the Derbyshire area.

After 28 years with one company, I decided to train and qualify as a "Driving Instructor". I have a lot of experience working with people, training and developing them to attain the essential skills they require.



I enjoy the interaction of working on a 1 2 1 basis, seeing them develop from their 1st lesson right through to passing their test gives me an enormous buzz and a great deal of satisfaction.



You will find me a very patient and friendly person when I'm working with my pupils. I endeavor to make all our lesson's as interesting and simple to understand. I also recognise the fact that all of us have different level's of learning.

So pick up the phone, I'm sure you won't be disappointed."

I love teaching people to drive, its very rewarding for both me and my pupils.
I teach SAFE DRIVING FOR LIFE and take pleasure in knowing that when my pupils pass they are amongst the safe drivers on the road in terms of skill and attitude.
Having fun whilst learning is my top priority, because at school I always learned more with the teachers who were fun to be around.
I am very patient, never shout and always try to help.

Hi, my name is Tracey and I cover the Derbyshire area.

After starting a family I decided I would like a career change which would be flexible around my young daughter so I trained to be a driving instructor.
I enjoy working with people on a one to one basis to build a rapport with each individual and be adaptable to their needs.
I am approachable, friendly and a patient person who always aims to give the best training, help, support and advice to my pupils in order to help them achieve their driving goal.
I am used to working with different age groups and endeavour to provide everyone with a relaxed knowledgeable interesting lesson each time you are in the car with me.

I drive a mini which all my pupils love.

I am friendly and have a relaxed manner. I have always enjoyed working with people and developing their skills. I get a real buzz from seeing my pupils progress and become confident, qualified drivers with the benefits that this can bring to their lives.
