Courses
Courses drawn on the same twelve skills as your record.
Each course is drawn on the same twelve skills as your record, in the same order, so you can see what it works on before you book.

Example prices. Courses are paid lesson by lesson or up front; unused hours are refunded.
Every skill goes through five levels
After each lesson you and your instructor fill in the record together. A box is filled only when you both agree.
1
Introduced
Your instructor explains and shows you, then you try it with full help.
2
Talked through
You do it while your instructor talks you through each step.
3
Prompted
You do it yourself; your instructor reminds you at the right moment.
4
Seldom prompted
You get it right almost every time, with the odd reminder.
5
Independent
You do it safely without help, in any traffic. Your instructor sits quietly.
We suggest booking the practical test when most rows are at level 4, because test dates are often weeks away. You take it when every row is ticked. Nobody can tell you in advance how many hours that takes, and we will not guess.
