Everyone learns in different ways and we strive to cater for all of our students’ individual needs on each driving lesson, to make sure your time and experience learning to drive is as positive and productive as possible. Being relaxed and at ease whilst learning to drive will help you to pass your test in good time and you’re more likely to develop good quality driving skills that you’ll carry with you throughout your time behind the wheel.
Making sure you are happy with your choice of driving instructor is so important to successfully passing your driving test and there are many reasons why some students feel more comfortable learning with a female driving instructor, so we want to give you the opportunity to have a female driving instructor if that is your preference.
The Female Driving Instructor directory reports that only 15% of the 30,000 driving instructors on the DVSA register are female, so female driving instructor’s can be hard to find. However, we’re delighted to have fantastic female driving instructors as part of our driving school in Portsmouth who you can learn to drive with.
We offer students a discount on driving lessons, plus we can pick you up and return you to college or university between studies or lectures, and depending on ability drive to or from home, which will maximise your time. We cover Portsmouth College, Highbury College, International College Portsmouth, University of Portsmouth, Havant & South Downs College.
Day to day life is getting more pressured, plus the roads are getting busier, so if you have not considered having automatic driving lessons then now maybe the time. Learning to drive in an automatic car is less stress, as there are no gears to negotiate your way through, leaving you more time to spend focusing on your general awareness and surroundings, plus the advantage of no stalling !! if you have sat at a roundabout or junction for a while trying to get out, automatic cars make life easier, when you decide to go, you go and no rolling back either.
If you have struggled in a manual car, or a person who is nervous or anxious, automatic driving lessons will be perfect for you. Automatic cars are top quality and you can buy the same car as you can if buying a manual, plus with the world being more environmentally friendly, cars are turning to electric gradually, and therefore will only be automatic. Just contact us to find out more.
The Portsmouth, Southsea and Waterlooville area’s are a wonderful place to learn how to drive. Quiet residential streets and large open roads along Southsea sea front are perfect for learning the basics and fundamental manoeuvers. Don’t get too distracted by the Spinnaker Tower, WW2 Soldier Memorial or wonderful views over the Solent whilst you’re driving though! Then, once you have the skills and confidence, drive into Portsmouth city’s narrow streets for lots of great urban driving practice. Navigate your way past the eclectic shops and artisan cafes of Albert Road or take on the speed humps along Fawcett Road.
Make your way around the busy A3 interchange by the Portsmouth University Student Union for some roundabout and traffic light experience, before taking in a bit of culture down the quaint roads of Old Portsmouth. Or why not head out of town to Portsdown Hill to practice your hill starts! Whatever the driving skills you need to learn or build on, there are plenty of places to go in and around Portsmouth and Southsea to keep your driving lessons interesting and most importantly of all, fun!
Surrounding areas, you have Waterlooville where you can take in the national parks such as Queen Elizabeths Countrypark and venture up Butser Hill, or visit Portchester Castle or Port Solent and its quaint harbour and wooden decks and walkways with restaurants where you can eat by the water.
During your driving lessons in Portsmouth, Southsea, Lee on the Solent, Portchester or Waterlooville, you will get to experience the busy driving of the dual carriageways, motorways, and busy city driving, which will prepare you for when you pass your driving test, and be exposed to driving all of these area’s to build your skill and awareness of varying road situations.
Once you pass your driving test, take a trip on Brittany Ferries from Portsmouth to France and drive the amazing French countryside.
