It’s certainly been a day for our local driving instructor community…

A post was published today which, sadly, has belittled independent driving instructors and driving schools, and it has understandably left many people feeling saddened and angry.

In my 14 years of doing this job, I’ve never seen such a public attempt to undermine our local independent instructors — many of whom have worked incredibly hard to build their businesses from the ground up.

I’m here to support my colleagues — independents AND driving schools alike. 🤝

There is room for all of us in this industry. We can all succeed without tearing someone else down to make ourselves look better.

No negativity.
No belittling.
No undermining.

Instead, let’s support one another, celebrate the great work happening within our local industry and show that we can stand together.

PLEASE, let’s flood Facebook with positivity, support and unity. ❤️

Different businesses. Different approaches. One profession.

Let’s stand together. 🚘🤝

Not done this for a while so here’s a little about me…

Hi, my name’s Phil 👋

I’m a patient, calm and friendly driving instructor who understands that everyone learns at their own pace. Whether you’re a complete beginner, feeling nervous behind the wheel, or looking to build your confidence, I’ll adapt my lessons to suit your individual needs.

My aim is to make every lesson relaxed, enjoyable and productive, while giving you the skills and confidence you need to become a safe and independent driver.

I’m proud to have a very good first-time pass rate at the moment and in the 4 years I have been doing instruction, and I put this down to taking the time to understand each learner and tailoring my teaching style to what works best for them.

If you’re looking for a patient, calm and adaptable instructor who will support you every step of the way, I’d love to help you get on the road! 🚗💨
