🤎 A little update from Wheel Wise Driving School.
As some of you already know, I’ve recently experienced an unexpected medical issue which has unfortunately meant stepping away from teaching. As a result, Wheel Wise Driving School is now temporarily closed.
When I started this journey three and a half years ago, I never imagined finding myself in this position. Teaching people to drive has become so much more than just a job to me, and having to step away from something I’ve worked so hard for and feel so passionate about has been really challenging.
Unfortunately, I don’t currently have a clear timeline for when I’ll be able to return. I now know that it won’t be in 2026, and whilst I’m hopeful that it can be in 2027, there are still a lot of uncertainties to work through.
One thing I do know, though, is that I’m not planning for this to be the end of my journey as a driving instructor. I absolutely love what I do, and I have every intention of getting back into the passenger seat when I’m able to.
For now, it’s just an unexpected detour. 🤎
In the meantime, I intend to continue sharing educational content whenever I can. My circumstances may have changed, but my passion for road safety and driver education absolutely hasn’t.
To everyone who has sent kind messages and shown understanding over the past few weeks, thank you. It genuinely means more than you know. And to all my learners, past and present, thank you for trusting me to be part of your driving journeys. It’s been an absolute privilege, and I hope you’ll continue to keep me updated on your progress!
This certainly isn’t the direction I expected 2026 to take, but I’m hopeful that I’ll be back in the passenger seat somewhat soon. Until then, stay safe out there! 🚗🤎
Lots of love,
