Find the Best Driving Instructor in Colchester
To get the best driving lessons in Colchester, you need to know what questions to ask when talking to a driving school. Most people are unsure what to ask, and that’s natural. You’ve probably thought about pass rate, price, and the car. However, there are other important questions you can ask.
Ask these questions when calling driving schools:
- Is the instructor fully qualified or still in training?
- What grade does the instructor have? (A, B, or fail)
- When was the instructor last graded?
- What extra training has the instructor done recently?
How to Pass Your Test First Time
The driving examiner wants to see you’re a safe driver. Here’s what that means:
- Be in control of the car at all times
- Spot hazards while driving
- Follow the Highway Code
- Show a safe driving attitude
We teach these skills from your very first lesson. This helps you become a natural driver who can pass the first time.
Save Over £500 on Getting Your License
You can save money in three ways:
1. Reduce Your Total Learning Hours
Most learners take one hour lessons each week. This wastes time on reviewing past lessons. The better option is to take two-hour lessons every 3-4 days. This could save you about 12 hours of lessons and a lot of money.
2. Skip Private Practice
Insurance and fuel for practice in a parent’s car costs about £30 per week. With our lesson plan, you won’t need this extra practice.
3. Pass Your Test First Time
Each failed test costs more money. Our four-step process prepares you properly:
- Control the car well
- Spot and avoid hazards
- Follow road rules
- Drive with a safe attitude

Recent Driving Test Changes
The driving test has changed to match today’s roads. Since December 4th of 2017, the test now has 20 minutes of driving on your own. You will often need to follow sat nav directions. This tests if you can make the right choices while doing many things at once during driving. This is a skill you need in real life driving. Our lessons now include these new changes including Sat nav. You will practice driving on your own and using a sat nav with us. Our driving instructors run mock tests that feel just like the real test.
This way, you will be fully prepared for the test, and nothing will surprise you on test day.
