About Tim’s Driving Tuition
Driving Instructor in Winchester
I am a fully qualified Driving Instructor living in Winchester who has passed all parts of the Government controlled test for driving instructors in Great Britain and Northern Ireland. The DVSA is a government body and the people who run the driving tests in this Country. I have been check tested twice and successfully passed my Exams. The Check tests are exams that all qualified driving Instructors need to undertake to ensure they are continually providing good professional tuition. They are carried out every three to four years.
I have also passed the new standards check test and have become a Grade A instructor which is the highest grade you can achieve. I understand only around 30 % of professional driving instructors are A grade.
I specialise in a fully structured driving course to get pupils to test standard. I also offer mock tests, Intensive courses, motorway lessons and refresher lessons.
Driving Courses
Pass Rates
I qualified as an approved driving instructor (ADI) in August 2007 after attending a fully structured government-controlled training course.
On the 10th of June 2015, I passed my Approved Driving Instructor (ADI) standards Check test achieving the highest possible grade A.
All driving instructors are required by law to be retested every 3 to 4 years to ensure they continue to provide a good standard of driving instruction. I also passed two previous check tests which I have undertaken since qualifying as an approved driving instructor in August 2007.
My Pass Rate is continually between 60% and 75% which is way above the national average of 48%. Since qualifying as a driving instructor offering driving lessons in Winchester, every year I have exceeded the national average pass rate for driving tests in the U.K. My current pass rate as of June 15th 2023 is 68%.
I aim to get pupils through the driving test at a pace that suits them. I find that many pupils wish to pass as quickly as possible, hopefully with a first-time pass. I will not rush the pupil and I believe in providing a professional service offering a fully structured driving course and I will not cut corners. If the pupil’s wish is to complete the driving course over a longer period of time to suit them that’s fine by me.
