Driving Lessons Monkstown People Love

When you start your driving lessons you need a nurturing environment. There most definitely should be no yelling involved. It's our responsibility to make sure you are comfortable behind the wheel. Which is why our instructors get that little bit extra training above the standard you'll usually see out there. Our instructors are passionate about teaching people to drive and work hard to give you the ultimate driving lesson experience. In the end that is what being a driving instructor is all about.

Pass your test in Monkstown

Here is why customers call us the top driving school in Monkstown

Our instructors have been trained to quickly recognise what level you are at, where your bad habits are and what remedial measures should be taken to guarantee you make the most progress possible from each lesson with us.

Taking one or two driving lessons a week in Monkstown is often not enough for some students. To help our students with this we have built our own training course to study between lessons to help reinforce what you learn in the car.

No other Monkstown Driving Schools offer free material like ours. With our free home study support material you'll be prepared for every lesson and develop faster as a driver than with any other driving school. Covering vital driving skills like driving at night, road positioning and traffic progression this training is like having your own driving instructor with you 24/7.

A Driving School in Monkstown you can rely on

We all remember the exciting engaging teacher in school that made learning easy and 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 real with approved driving instructors. It's not as straightforward as Googling 'Driving Lessons Monkstown' and picking the first driving school you stumble upon. Who can you have faith in to give you that enjoyable and engaging experience?

Knowledge and professionalism is what you need from a driving instructor. A place where learners are regularly passing their driving test first time.

RSA School of Motoring Review

niamh lalor

Another one passes the test. Well done niamh lalor

Passed first time! I just want to say a big thank you to my driving instructor and the RSA School of Motoring for helping me pass successfully on my first attempted... Was an amazing instructor who showed me how I should drive and spent a lot of time refining my techniques to the level required to pass. He also worked on making me a confident and calm driver which was a big advantage on the day of my test...I heard of the RSA School of Motoring through a work colleague who said they were extremely good and helped her pass successfully. I'm so glad she recommend them and I would definitely recommend them to anyone learning to drive. I can now say I feel confident enough to drive anywhere on my own :)

Most of our students fall under one of the following. You have an imminent driving test coming up or you want to start preparing for one before you book. Or you have never driven before and need to get your Essential Driver Training started.

Let us start there.

What exactly is Essential Driver Training?

EDT Driving Lessons Monkstown EDT Driving Lessons Monkstown

You may not know but many years ago Ireland had one of the worst road accident records in Europe. 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.

This EDT requires that all learners must complete a minimum of 12 hours of essential driver training by an RSA approved driving instructor.

These 12 lessons were created with the intention of filling in the vital driving skill gaps that young drivers had which were leading to the high level of road accidents occurring each year.

Getting ready for the Driving Test in Monkstown

Pretest Driving Lessons Monkstown Pretest Driving Lessons Monkstown

Training to pass the driving test is completely different from learning to drive. You should already have the vital driving skills and road safety knowledge before applying for the test. Our Monkstown pretest driving lessons are designed to show you how to beat the test by understanding the conditions you will be placed under.

If you have to prepare for the driving test then your head is probably a wash with different emotions. We naturally fear what we don't understand and the unknown. But with RSA School of Motoring you don't have to be afraid.

Most driving instructors will 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.

Complete your pretest training with is and not only will you understand all four stages of the driving test, you'll know the potential test routes you may be brought on and you'll know precisely how the tester will speak to you and what they specifically want you to demonstrate.
