Choose manual if you want to drive both manual and automatic cars after passing. You’ll learn clutch control and gear changes alongside road skills. Choose automatic if you prefer learning without a clutch pedal or manual gear changes. Passing in an automatic limits your licence to automatic cars; you must pass a manual practical test to drive manual cars independently.
Choose one-hour lessons if you concentrate better in shorter sessions or want a lower cost per booking. Two-hour lessons give you longer to practise and develop skills in each session. We advertise one-hour lessons and 90-minute and two-hour manual sessions. Discuss your experience, concentration and budget with your instructor before choosing a lesson length.
Your previous experience, learning pace and driving ability determines how many lessons you need. Neither 10 nor 20 lessons guarantees test readiness, and lesson lengths affect your total practice time. Your instructor can assess your starting point and review your progress. Take your test when you can drive safely and consistently without guidance.
Consider one or two lessons each week as a starting point, then adjust the schedule to your progress, availability and budget. Regular sessions help you build on previous practice, while time between lessons lets you reflect on feedback. Discuss a manageable routine with your instructor. If you prefer concentrated training, explore our intensive courses.

Call 07934 084683 or use our contact form to enquire. Tell us your location, availability and whether you want manual or automatic lessons.

Pay in advance through an agreed payment method.
Give your instructor at least 48 hours’ notice to cancel or reschedule a driving lesson. If you give less notice or miss the lesson, we charge the full lesson price. Read our terms, payments and cancellation policy before booking.
