Driving Lessons Holycross Residents Love
Fear of driving is a very common and we understand it is very important to provide the right atmosphere for our students. We've seen time and time again nerves and fear holding back a students progress. Creating a learning environment like this starts with us and our instructors. Which is why our instructors get that little bit extra training above the standard you'll usually see out there. Driving instruction is about listening and responding to your needs. In the end that is what being a driving instructor is all about. Bridging the gap and turning a nervous beginner into a safe, confident driver.
WHY WE SAY WE ARE THE BEST DRIVING SCHOOL IN Holycross
In all our years teaching we have never seen a perfect driver because one doesn't exist. Being safe and confident is all you need to aim for. We want you to feel like you have made great progress after each lesson, both in practice and understanding which is why our ADI's are trained to home in on your weakest areas ensuring time isn't wasted on areas of your driving that are fine.
This level of driving instruction is fantastic but we also feel that gaps between lessons can often slow progress so all our pupils also get free access to our online training platform to help reinforce their learning.
When it comes to value no other driving school in Holycross can offer what we do to our pupils. We have seen pupils learn 3-4 times faster with our home study training. This material helps you grasp and understand those tricky areas of driving like roundabouts, night driving and your driving test maneuvers.

Congratulations Pavani Rynhart who chose us for their pretest driving lessons
I had 2-3 lessons with before my test. He came highly recommended and they were right! He is very patient, observant and his vast experience previously as a tester was helpful. I have driven for many years but failed a test once before. He was able to prep me to be the right mental view of the whole driving test experience. It comes to show that being mentally prepared is just as important and not many instructors can help with that! Thanks ! Dr. Punitha Rynhart

Pretest Driving Lessons Holycross
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 alone on Holycross roads is a right you will need to earn and the driving test is your chance to do it. And naturally, as with any test, if you understand the conditions and what to expect you can pass easily.
If you haven't done any preparation for your driving test the your are in the dark and being in the dark can cause a lot of fears to rise up. They so often get the best of even the most seasoned driver. So it makes perfect sense that we have to shine a light in the dark, remove the unknowns and the fear. And that is precisely what our pretest driving lessons will do.
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.
We're not in the business of gambling on your success. We simulate for you all 4 stages of the test, teach you all the test routes and focus on the areas of your driving that are most likely to get you the most marks or fail you.
Using this method we get our student past the test in half the time it takes other driving school. Passing fast means you save money.
