Refreshingly Good Driving Lessons in Ballyclerahan
When we were in school we all had our favorite teachers, the ones that engaged us and made learning fun. And then we had the opposite, those teachers that had no place in the classroom. Not all teachers are made equal and that is certainly no less true with approved driving instructors. It's not as straightforward as Googling 'Driving Lessons Ballyclerahan' and picking the first driving school you see. Who can you believe in to give you that fun and engaging experience?
Obviously you want to choose a driving school that has a great track record. A driving school that gets pupils past the test.

Just passed my test this morning all thanks to the help from ! I had taken the test twice over the last few years and failed and wasn't thrilled about trying it a 3rd time because of the previous results, but got recommended to by a friend so after only 3 hours in total of pre tests I passed, delighted! knows what he is talking about and guides you through the testing routes very calmly,professionally and puts you at ease with the overall test and what is expected of you. I can't recommend him enough as an instructor and I wouldn't have passed without him. Thanks a mill :)

What is Essential Driver Training?
EDT Driving Lessons Ballyclerahan
You may not know but many years ago Ireland had one of the worst road accident records in Europe. To help stem these statistics the Road Safety Authority introduced a new and compulsory training initiative for first time drivers. The Essential Driver Training or EDT.
The EDT syllabus requires that 12 structured driving lessons have to be completed, stamped and uploaded to the RSA website by a registered ADI.
Learning to drive safely means knowing and practicing particular driving skills and these 12 EDT lessons have been designed to accomplish that.

Pretest Driving Lessons Ballyclerahan
The art of driving safely and the art of passing the test should not be confused as the same. Long before sitting the driving test you should have the necessary skills and understanding to drive without putting your life or the lives of others in danger. Pretest training is about understanding the driving test itself and how you can beat it.
If you have to prepare for the driving test then your head is probably a wash with different emotions. Fear of failing, fear of nerves getting the better of you or just fear of the unknown. Well fear not.
It is standard practice by many driving instructors to keep giving you lessons until they 'think' you are ready. Often they will send you to do the test not really knowing if you will pass or not. And they do this because they do not truly understand the driving test, how you will be graded or what areas of your driving will cause you to fail. Luckily this is not how we operate. All our instructors have been trained by ex-testers so they fully understand the driving tester and what they are looking for from you on test day.
By the end you’ll understand fully the four stages of the test and understand exactly what the driving tester is looking for from you, how they will speak to you on the day and why and when the tester will mark the sheet.
