Driving School NW London

Driving Lessons in Burnt OakWelcome to NW London driving school for affordable, cheap lessons in the North West post codes of London from a highly professional, knowledgable, independent department of transport/DSA approved instructor operating a school for residents and students of Mill Hill, Hendon, Colindale, Kingsbury, Burnt Oak, Edgware, Brent Cross, Kilburn, Golders Green and Willesden areas of NW London. 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:


In addition to the high quality one on one driving lessons in London, I also offer free advice, information and videos for learner drivers via my driving test tips 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, so even if you decide not to take practical car tuition with me or need an automatic car which I currently don't provide, do visit the blog and subscribe to get helpful tips that will help you to pass the UK DSA driving test.

My leased driving school Toyota Yaris car has a HD video recording system that allows me to record a lesson on to either a DVD or copied directly to a 4GB USB flash stick so the provisional licence holder can review all tuition over and over again in the comfort of your home, a free optional service, just let me know when you are booking your driving lessons, bring along a DVD (which you pick up the next time we mee) or your own USB drive (2GB minimum capacity) and you can take the video home the same day. You will not find this available from any other North West London driving school and has proved useful to many of my previous learner driver clients, some over the age of 50 saving them money and making the learning process much easier. The camera is very compact and does not obstruct your view, and provides full view of the road ahead in HD, 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:

Driving Test in Mill Hill, Hendon Aviation Sq and Borehamwood centres

Your first London Driving Lesson

Read Highway code before your first driving lessonIf you are an absolute beginner when it comes to learning to drive a car, then here is some valuable advice that will be very useful, as 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, so call me today on 07956233032.

Driving Lessons NW3

Driving School Hampstead


Would you like to start learning to drive a car in the Hampstead NW3 area of London, looking for a reliable, honest and experienced driving instructor who can patiently help you to gain the driving skills required to navigate the narrow streets of Lyndhurst Rd or the busy traffic Hampstead High St then you've come to the right place.

If you've never had any driving lessons before, I would suggest that you start with 2hr slots as this would offer you more practical tuition than 1hr sessions because until you can drive the school car from your NW3 home address, your driving instructor will have to take you to a beginners area with wide roads and little traffic. The 2 favorite places used for beginner learner drivers is Regents Park NW1 or Cricklewood NW2, and getting there will take around 15 minutes or more depending on traffic conditions and where you live in Hampstead, so you'll be losing about 30minutes to commuting leaving only half an hour for driving tuition. On the other hand a 2hr driving lesson will leave you with enough time to recap on the previous week's skills as well as learn new topics ensuring that you make good progress and can quickly get to the level where you are able to drive to and from home.

As an Ex-AA independent driving instructor, all NW3 driving lessons are conducted to the highest DSA standard, with the option of Video recording your tuition onto DVD to further help the learner driver as mistakes and remedial action can be reviewed in the comfort of your home ready for the next session with the driving instructor, a free service (you provide the DVDs) that no other driving school in Hampstead NW3, London is able to offer!

All NW3 cheap driving lessons currently cost £23 per hour, and I can pickup learner drivers in most NW postcode areas and drop them back in Hampstead (or you drive their yourself once you have reached the appropriate driving skills level). Give me a call on 07956233032 for manual tuition, I currently don't have an automatic car.
