Frequently Asked Questions
Below are some of the common questions that I get asked. If you have any different questions, please contact me 07888 66 78 45
What areas do you teach?
Greenhithe, Bean, Dartford, Wilmington, Bexleyheath, Crayford, Erith, Belvedere. Please contact me if you are unsure, call 07888 66 78 45, pass@gowithneil.co.uk
Why do you only teach 2hour lessons?
For your benefit I will only teach two hour slots, this will maximise your tuition and help you to focus and retain what each lesson is looking to achieve. 2 hour lessons are the most cost effective way of learning, what you will learn in a two hour lesson will be the same in 3 or 4 single hour sessions.
What will I do on my first lesson?
If you have never driven a car before I will take you to a local area that has a minimal amount of traffic passing. From here you will learn the basic controls of the car. You will then learn how to move, stop and steer the vehicle. Once you are confident with these skills we will move on to turning left and right from junctions.
Do you have special introductory offers?
I do not offer any introductory offers. I feel that my pricing is fair on the benefits that I can deliver.
What test centres do you use?
I use Sidcup, Belvedere and Erith test centres. I have in depth knowledge of all these areas including the many test routes.
How many hours will it take me to pass?
The national average is 67 hours. My average is between 20 and 40 hours. (The time will depend on pupil progress during lessons).
How do I apply for my provisional Licence?
You can you the apply for the provisional licence using the official website. www.gov.uk/apply-first-provisional-driving-licence
How long have you been a driving instructor
I have been a fully qualified driving instructor for 11 years. I was awarded a Grade A in my standards check scoring a high 49/51. In that time I have built a high reputation and can be also known as Neil from Kinetic Driving School
Why is the test day charged more?
Driving practical tests are set at unusual times like 12:38. It takes 3 hours of my time to cater for these unusual times, so my fee for the test day is 3hrs = £125. (this does not include the DVSA Practical Driving Test fee)
