If you are part trained, then your assessment will have set the level that your training to date has achieved

It has to be stressed at this point that being ready for the driving test is a pre-requisite for use of the car on the day. If, in our opinion either the examiner, the general public, or the car would be put at any risk, then the test appointment would be re-arranged
No-one wants to be in this position. You have taken one, or more, driving tests and you have yet to succeed. You're not sure what is wrong, and worse still, how to put it right
Well one thing is for sure, keep doing the same thing and you're likely to keep getting the same result. This is why we have our test rescue package available Cost £345.00p inc 5 x 2hr remedial lessons + 1 x 2hr test day appointment. It could be just what you need (does not include DVSA test fee)

Let's get your automatic driving lessons in Grimsby started with a 1/2 price assessment
If you've had a few lessons but not got very far, or have had a break in your lessons, the assessment would have given us both the chance to check out your skills, and how much has been retained. It's worth pointing out that we see this all the time and are very experienced in bringing you back to your previous level very quickly
If you are part trained, then your assessment will have set the level that your training to date has achieved.

Here at 21st Century Driving, we like to help our customers learn to drive as quickly as they are able, and to pass their driving test at the first attempt, and as soon as possible, however that does not mean were do things in a rush
At the end of that first session, we can discuss, how many driving lessons will be needed to pass your driving test and gain your driving licence. In 2017/18, our 36hr training programme pupils took on average 35 hours of training to test with two-thirds of them passing first time
Driving lessons should be geared to suit the customer, not the instructor, so if you are spending time on your lessons looking at books and pre-printed diagrams, you may be on the receiving end of a tired and lazy training programme
A well structured, dynamic lesson should develop around it's topics to meet the capabilities displayed by the learner during each lesson, recapping where necessary, and pushing on when circumstances permit. Too many driving instructors "only do 1 hour lessons". or hide behind the old fashioned concept that it takes 47 hours of lessons and 20 hours of practice to be ready for the driving test, and arrange training programmes to this timescale suit themselves rather than the needs of their customers
You may be tempted by driving schools advertising silly prices to get you hooked, but these are a false economy. If you take 13+ hours longer to train, you will end up paying more in the long run. Becoming a motorist is expensive enough without paying a premium for your driving lessons. You might wonder how motivated the instructor is when earning less than half his normal rate because of a "snare" offer
Consider taking a longer view on your driving lessons and their overall cost. £££ per hour against total cost of gaining your driving licence. 6 hours for £50 sounds great as a stand alone deal, but how much does the rest of your training cost. The "loss leader " is usually recovered somewhere along the line with increased lesson pricing or over-complicated terms and conditions
That is why we stick to our principles of providing quality driving lessons at a reasonable price throughout the training programme, and use the minimum number of hours to get you to your goal
We offer our half price assessment/1st lesson - 2 hours for £35 to get you started and then all our lessons are competitively priced (further details on our shop page)
