How do I find a good driving instructor?
A DSA Approved Driving Instructor (ADI) must pass strict theory, driving and teaching tests to gain the green certificate that they are required, by law, to display. They're also checked regularly by a supervising examiner to ensure they maintain a good standard of instruction.
A Trainee Driving Instructor (PDI), has passed a strict theory test and driving test but not the test of teaching ability. They are required, by law, to display a pink certificate.
Of course, all that said, the best learning takes place when you enjoy your lessons and get on with your teacher.
Recommendations from friends and family can be useful. However, from experience, we can say that just because someone recommends an instructor, it doesn't necessarily mean the lessons are any good.
The best advice is - if you're not happy with your lessons, try a different school or instructor.
Remember - it's your money, it's your choice....
