Driving Lessons in Irvine with Johnny Auld Driver Training
Are you looking for a driving instructor in Irvine, Ayrshire, then lucky for you, you’ve come to the right place.
Taking your driving lessons in Irvine can be challenging, students often find the roundabout just up from Tesco to be a bit tricky, this is mainly because it’s busy and quite often other road users don’t signal to let you know where they are going. However with a little bit of practice we always get there.
You’ll take your driving test in Irvine and during the practice lessons beforehand you may drive along the harbourside which can be really busy during the daytime.
With lots of cafes and bars on the roadside with limited car parking, this can result in many cars being parked on both sides of the street; this, in turn, brings the hazards of car doors opening, cars pulling out and pedestrians walking out between the parked cars which you really need to be alert to.
I think its fair to say that having driving lessons in Irvine prepares you well for when you pass your driving test and go out in your car by yourself.
Your first driving lesson
Once you have contacted me and arranged a time for your first lesson I will pick you up from an agreed location of your choice, in or around Irvine. We will have a brief discussion to gauge your level of driving experience, if you are a complete beginner we will start by giving you a demonstration of the controls and instruments and how they all work.
Once this is completed we will go for a drive in a suitable area where you will learn how to move off and stop safely.
I understand that you may be nervous about taking control of the car for the first time but there is no need to be. You will learn at your pace in bite size pieces and we will only move on through your learning syllabus when you feel ready.

Getting ready for your Theory Test
I will tend to focus on teaching you to drive, and will let you practice for your theory test in your own time. If however you would like to dedicate part of your lesson to the theory test preparation then please let me know.
There are a number of apps available to enable you to study for the theory test. Using the apps on your phone or tablet gives you the opportunity to study whilst you commute to and from school, college, uni or work.
If you dedicate a sufficent amount of time to studying the theory questions, viewing the hazard perception clips whilst applying the practical knowledge that you gain on your Irvine lessons, all of this will assist you in passing your theory and hazard perception test when the time comes.
Getting ready for your Practical Test
During your learning to drive process we will go through a structured lesson plan, which will cover your progress to date and areas that need to be improved upon. At the end of each driving lesson you have in Irvine, we will have a de-brief and your progress will be logged on my ipad app where a complete record of your learning is stored.
I will let you know when I think you are ready to sit your practical test. Once we have reached this point you will then be able to go online and book your test at a pre-determined date and time that we have agreed upon. When you have confirmation of the test booking I would ask that you send me a screenshot of the booking to enable me to enter the details in to your learner driver file.
