Driving Lessons Crookhaven Residents Love
At RSA School of Motoring we take a refreshingly different approach to driver training. As our student we want you to have fun during your lessons and stay safe when you drive. Which is why we continually train and upskill our instructors to not only give you the best driving lesson experience there is to be had in Crookhaven but also to give you a calm relaxed environment to learn in. You will never see our instructors lose their cool.
Here is why students call us the top driving school in Crookhaven
Being a good driving instructor means listening to the needs of the pupil, asking the right questions and responding with the correct remedial action and advice to turn you into an excellent thoughtful driver. Something our instructors are true experts at.
Another thing we see a lot is students coming back for a follow up lesson having forgotten much of what was covered in the lesson before. Which is why we created our own unique training guides and tutorials to support you throughout your driver training.
No other Crookhaven Driving Schools offer free material like ours. Many of our pupils have even attributed it to their fast progress and development. Lessons come and go fast and it is easy to forget what you have learned. Our extra lesson material means you can follow up on what was covered before the next lesson ensuring you don't waste time and money going over the same things.
Refreshingly Good Driving Lessons in Crookhaven
When we were in school we all had our favorite teachers, the ones that engaged us and made learning fun. And we can recall the poor teachers that had no business teaching anyone. Not all teachers are made equal and that is no less a fact with driving instructors. It's not as simple as Googling 'Driving Lessons Crookhaven' and choosing the first driving school you find. Who can you have faith in to give you that enjoyable and engaging driving lesson experience?
Naturally you want to pick a driving school that has a great record. A place where learners are regularly passing their driving test first time.

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 :)

Just Passed My Test With RSA. My Wife Passed Aswell And We Couldnt Praise The Professionalism Enough And It Was First Time For Both Of Us Sitting The Test. Anyone Looking To Pass Call The RSA School Of Motoring Now...Top CLASS.
We now have helped countless pupils pass the test so before you continue your search we urge you to consider RSA School of Motoring for your driving lessons in Crookhaven. Let us explain to you why.
More than likely you fall into one of two categories. You need to complete or start your 12 EDT driving lessons. Or you have completed your EDT and have a driving test to prepare for.
So here is a little information on our approach.
What is Essential Driver Training?
EDT Driving Lessons Crookhaven
It is an depressing fact that Ireland is one of the worst countries in Europe for road deaths and accidents. The Road Safety Authority had to do something so they designed a new training syllabus that all new drivers had to complete. 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.
This 12 lesson syllabus has been designed to ensure young drivers practice vital driving skills and develop a more comprehensive understanding of road safety.

The Driving Test: Crucial preparation
Pretest Driving Lessons Crookhaven
There is learning the vital driving skills and developing your knowledge of road signs and road safety. Then you must master the conditions of the driving test and understand what to expect. Being allowed to drive by yourself on Crookhaven roads is a freedom you must earn and the driving test is your opportunity to do it. And naturally, as with any test, if you understand the conditions and what to expect you can pass easily.
If the thoughts of sitting the driving test are overwhelming you then you are not the first to feel like this. Fear of failing, fear of nerves getting the better of you or just fear of the unknown. But with RSA School of Motoring you don't have to be afraid.
Our tried and tested pretest training packages have been developed to specifically help you overcome your nerves and come out with a deep understanding on what will happen 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.
