Driving School in Aylesbury

I am a driving instructor in Aylesbury, running my own driving school called Mini Motoring. I have been a DSA Approved Driving Instructor since 1994 and have a very high success rate of test passes. I deliver Pass Plus courses, parking and manoeuvring courses and driver training for nervous and anxious people. Mini Motoring is an independent driving school in Aylesbury, delivering driving lessons, and with very successful test results.

I did work for a time as a driving instructor in Aylesbuy with the AA and BSM driving schools. However, since running Mini Motoring driving school in Aylesbury I have been accepted onto the Buckinghamshire County Council Get in Gear driver training team.

Develop my Skills As a Driving Instructor in Aylesbury

When you look on the Internet you will see many driving schools advertised for the Aylesbury area, but whilst I qualified with as a high grade ADI (Approved Driving Instructor), I continually look at my own driver development, aiming to become a driving instructor at a more advanced level.

In 2008 I was recruited to the Buckinghamshire County Council intensive driver training programme for young drivers, called Get in Gear, and this required that I took some futher driver training. The course helps young people, who have just passed their test, to become better equipped for the road. Having seen it in action, Get in Gear really is a very useful alternative to Pass Plus.

on the Get in Gear young driver training scheme

Out of 50 driving instructors in Aylesbury and surrounding areas applied and I was one out of only four driving instructors in Aylesbury who were accepted during my intake. I was and am very proud of my achievement to be part of this prestigeous young driver training scheme. Julian Smith, who was one of the interview panel for Get in Gear, wrote:

To get to the required standard I received advanced driver training from Ride Drive, a National company based in Aylesbury and working from an emergency services background. This has enabled me to improve the driver training I give, making Mini Motoring a better equipped Aylesbury driving school.

Using My Own Driver Training Experience

In 1984 it was my turn to learn to drive, but my experience was not good. One particular driving instructor was very abusive and used to waste my time; time that I was paying my hard earned money for. Needless to say, I didn’t keep him for long.

I tried a few different driving schools, but just seemed to pick the wrong people. However, eventually I found a driving instructor who inspired me. Instead of destroying me, and making me feel miserable, he gave me confidence and taught me skills that really helped me to learn to drive well, and I still use now a lot of the techniques now.

It is because of how I was treated when I wanted to learn to drive that has made me very understanding and sympathetic to any learner.

My experience has also taught me it’s not just a question of knowing facts, but understanding how to apply the knowledge, and in what context, that is most important. I therefore make sure I explain these aspects well, now that I am operating under the name of Mini Motoring Driving School in Aylesbury, that I deliver good
quality driver training.
