This autumn I have had an increase in the number of requests for refresher lessons, which is lovely for me as it’s always nice to have a varied diary. If you’ve been wondering about getting refresher lessons yourself, I hope that you’ll find this blog post useful.

Many people don’t drive immediately after passing their test. Perhaps they went to university or changed jobs and it was no longer necessary to drive. Public transport is often easier in big cities. Some people find driving by themselves after passing their test daunting and as a result never get going by themselves due to fear or anxiety. Perhaps you were involved in a car accident and just didn’t feel you could face driving again afterwards. If any of these situations sound familiar then a few refresher lessons may be just the thing to help you gain confidence again.

If you decide to contact me for refresher lessons we will discuss your reasons for wanting some extra tuition and look at your personal goals. This may be done over the phone or in person (which is preferable if possible) during your, free, meet and greet session. Once I have a good understanding of your needs, we will arrange an assessment lesson. This will give me the chance to see what your current ability is and help us to structure the following lessons to achieve your aims. Some people only need one or two refresher sessions, but others may wish to have a short course of sessions until they feel happy with their driving ability again. Everyone is unique so we will make sure that the lessons are tailored to meet your specific needs and we will continue the lessons for as long as you would like, until you feel happy again behind the wheel.

I also offer one off refresher sessions, these are usually just 1 or 2 hours and cover one specific topic. Perhaps you haven’t had to parallel park since your test but now you live somewhere where you need to do it every day. Or perhaps you just want some reassurance on how to manage slip roads? If we are focusing on one skill then we will start the lesson with a recap on the topic and then practice it until you are able to achieve your aim without any guidance.

If you think that you might benefit from some refresher sessions then please give me a call on 07891679196 or send me an email at ruthblytheadi@outlook.com and we can discuss things further.
