- By telephone or by post if you have actually lost part of your licence you require to change this; you can do this online.
- Sponsorship– before starting your lesson you will need to have a plan on how to spend for a complete driving course whether this is through cost savings, work or household. If you do not have routine lessons, it does not pay to have lessons and then stop due to no cash as it will take you longer to pass your test.
- Time– ensure you have sufficient time to commit to learning to drive– after all it is a new skill that you are getting that will require routine practice in order for you to progress.
- We suggest you have one, two hour lesson every week under the supervision of a professional driving instructor.
- Attitude– you require to be confident that you will find out how to have the capability but drive to make fun of yourself if you make errors, most of us do.

- Clothing– make sure that your clothes on your lesson is comfortable; you will be beinged in the car for at least an hour. Likewise make sure that you use ideal shoes that you can feel the pedals through– no walking boots, heels or flip flops.
- Sleep– ensure you have a good night’s sleep the night before your lesson. You want to make sure you are alert as there will be a lot to take in on your first lesson.
- Be prepared– on the day of your lesson ensure you have both parts of your licence, payment for your lesson and your glasses, if you need them.
BETWEEN YOUR LESSONS
When your driving lesson is over the knowing does not need to stop there. To boost your knowing you might:
- Complete a student driver journal or diary– when your lesson is over, complete the journal with what you have actually covered in the lesson, what went well and what didn’t. You can utilize this to review the lesson and get ready for your next lesson. You can use the journal as a guide on what needs practising if you have somebody to practice with between lessons.
- Theory and Hazard Perception practice– utilize the web and books to revise for your theory test and threat perception test. The faster your theory is passed the better.
Lastly, do not forget that if you have any concerns about your lessons, your driving ability or anything else then just ask your instructor.
