Your Driving lessons....

Working with the complete novice in mind with no driving experience, 1-2-1  will train you beyond the standard required for passing the practical driving test. From the controls lesson through to driving on dual carriageways and motorways, you will be getting the best professional training available in the U.K.

No two pupils are the same so at 1-2-1 we listen to  what you want.

Every lesson taken with us is customised to meet your individual and specific needs. 

Your lessons are designed and developed to enhance your driving skills without making a compromise in quality or value for your money.
  • Do you have a deadline to meet?
  • Want to pass quickly? 
  • Do you want to take it one step at a time?
  • Our instructors are here to help you.
Lessons can be taken in either 1, 1.5 or 2 hour sessions and are structured according to your requirements, from an hour per week to an intensive course. We however recommend that the pupil attends 2 hour lessons, in this way substantial savings can be made in training time.

With 1-2-1 our aim is for you to reach the driving test standard as soon as possible. 

As a rough guideline, it would take a complete novice with no experience of driving around 40 hours of training from a qualified A.D.I. (Approved Driving Instructor) plus additional practice from family and friends to achieve the required level. 
  • Failed your practical test?
  • Given up on passing your driving test? 
  • Not driven for a while? 
  • Lost your confidence?
Our instructors will will get you back into the driving seat and onto the open road sooner than you think!

We will bring your confidence level back and improve your driving technique and performance in order to help you pass your practical driving test.
