London Driving School
Are you looking for affordable, cheap driving lessons in North West London with a highly professional knowledgable independent DSA approved driving instructor operating a school in the Mill Hill, Hendon, Colindale, Kingsbury, Burnt Oak, Edgware, Brent Cross, Kilburn, Golders Green and Willesden areas of NW London, then you've come to the right place.
My name is Shola, I'm an ex AA driving instructor who is very passionate about using driving lessons to not only teach learner drivers the necessary skills to pass the UK practical car test but also the importance of being a safe driver long after the DSA examiner has given you that coveted pass certificate.I am resident in Mill Hill, NW7 London from where my driving school provides affordable quality one on one lessons for pupils in the following post codes: NW2, NW3, NW4, NW6, NW9, NW10, NW11, HA8, N3 using the DSA structured learner record with all tuition suited to the individual's ability as shown by the driving lesson video below:
Apart from providing driving lessons in London, I also offer free advice, information and videos for learner drivers via my driving test tips UK driving school website, a service that has been running since 2005 and has proved to be a valuable resource to many in their quest to get a full british driving licence.
My driving school car has a video recording system that allows me to record a lesson on to DVD so the learner can review all tuition over and over again in the comfort of your home, a service that is free, all you need to do is provide the DVD, an option not available from any other North West London driving instructor and has proved useful to a lot of learner driver students of mine, especially some over 50 elderly ones and has saved them money at the same time.The system is very compact and does not obstruct your view, with the camera taking full view of the road ahead, while the microphone is able to pick up all of the instructors and students words so you able to fully understand what is going on.
A sample recording video clip from the additional/supplemental lessons help given to learner drivers from typical London streets is shown below:
Intensive Driving Lessons
If you are interested in passing your driving test in a week in London, then I'm able to offer you an intensive crash driving course over a period of 5 days, 1 week or 2 weeks. You need to have some previous driving experience, and as I mentioned in the learning to drive video, intensive crash courses are not for everyone, but if you have taken some time off work in London, and would like to attempt getting a full UK licence, then why not get in touch and see if we can arrange some intensive driving lessons.
The video below should give you an idea of what taking an intensive driving course entails, and whether it is something you should try, the video also includes the views of a learner driver who took intensive lessons before going on to pass his test at the Hendon Test centre in London. Be careful not to be sucked in by all those driving schools offering a guaranteed test pass with their crash courses, as not all things are as they seem, make sure you read the small print! I will do my ultmost best to give you all the knowledge and practise you require during your crash driving course, but I can't guarantee you will pass the DSA driving test, as that is up to you, what you do on the day, how much you can demonstrate that you have the skills required to be an independent driver!

Driving Test in Mill Hill, Hendon Aviation Sq and Borehamwood centres
If you are taking your practical driving car test at Mill Hill, Hendon DSA or Borehamwood WD6 centres, I would be willing to give you tuition and the use of my driving school car subject to availability and a 2hr assessment lesson, other centres I ocassional use include Barnet driving test centre, and I would advice you to give me at least a weeks notice if you want there to be any chance of me being available for your car test.
Your first London Driving Lesson
Many people don't know that there is a lot a learner driver can do before their first driving lesson that will not only help on the day, but could also save them some money.Once you've decided that you want to learn to drive a car, have applied for and received your provisional driving licence, you don't have to wait for your first appointment with a driving instructor to start the learning process.
The first thing you should do is get a copy of the official highway code, and start reading it, this will not only give you valuable information about driving in the UK, but it is also your first step to preparing for the DSA theory test which you need to pass before you can take the practical car assessment. If possible, read through the book completely before your first driving lesson in London, the knowledge you gain while all will not be used on the first day will help in subsequent lessons.
Learn the cockpit drill and car controls
If you've never driven a car before, then on your first lesson, the driving instructor is going to take you to a quiet and long road (these can be difficult to find in some areas of London) and teach you the cockpit drill (DSSSM) and the car controls before you actually do any driving at all. If you've only booked a 1 hour driving lesson, then you might not do any driving at all! You can give yourself a head start by either reading up on the cockpit drill or get a family member or friend to teach you. There is no reason why you should have to pay an instuctor (even if you are only paying £15 per hour) for this, you can also search on the internet to learn the car controls and their function or again a family member can come to the rescue.
All this homework of the learner driver means that the instructor should just check what previous knowledge they have by questions and Answers, and then move on to actual driving, beginning with moving off and stopping.
I would love to welcome you as a pupil, and look forward to offering you some high quality cheap driving lessons in North West London.
