Paul Kinsella passed the test with RSA School of Motoring
I just passed my test today all thanks and credit goes to my instructor. I have been driving for some years and had failed my test on a couple of occasions. I decided to change test centers and contacted RSA School of Motoring a couple of weeks prior to my driving test and had 2 lessons and also a pre-test on the day of my driving test. you showed true professionalism in what you do I cant thank you enough. You Identified the grey areas were I was going wrong and I was put right at ease with your patience and understanding. Having that knowledge and experience sitting beside me advising me on what was required and expected of me just gave me great confidence on the day of the test. I certainly will recommend RSA to anyone I know and will highly recommend . Thanks again.

RSA School of Motoring have the precise reputation for student success we have been talking about and we have the verified reviews to show it. So if you need driving lessons you would be getting a head start choosing us. Let us show you why.
Generally pupils are one of the following. You are either starting or need to complete your 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.
Essential Driver Training: What is it?
EDT Driving Lessons Effin
You may not know but many years ago Ireland had one of the worst road accident records in Europe. To help control these stats the Road Safety Authority implemented a new and mandatory training initiative for first time drivers. The Essential Driver Training or EDT.
The EDT consists of 12 compulsory lessons that must be delivered by a RSA approved driving instructor to all learner drivers.
In an effort to lower crashes and fill the apparent driving skills gap that many new road users were lacking, the 12 lesson syllabus was developed.
That's the 'whats' and 'whys' of the EDT.
Getting yourself ready for the Test in Effin
Pretest Driving Lessons Effin
There is learning the vital driving skills and developing your knowledge of road signs and road safety. And then there is learning to pass the driving test. Being allowed to drive by yourself on Effin roads is a right you must earn and the driving test is your chance to do it. Like any exam you have ever had to sit, 80% of passing the driving test is accomplished long before the day of the test with correct preparation.
If the thoughts of sitting the driving test are overwhelming you then you are not the first to feel like this. We naturally fear what we don't understand and 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. That is because of a total lack of understanding on how the tester thinks and marks you during the test. This is not how we do things. 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.
