Frequently asked Questions.

Q: Are you a qualified instructor ?
A: Yes – I am fully ADI/DIR registered and have over 20-years adult training experience
Q: What is an A.D.I./D.I.R. registered instructor ?
A: The A.D.I. register is a register of Road Safety Authority approved instructors. It is now a minimum legal requirement for instructors. To be registered, instructors must pass an advanced three-part assessment, be tax compliant and be vetted by the Gardai.
Q: Do you train absolute beginners ?
A: Of course.
Q: Can I use my own car?
A: Yes – providing the car is suitable to your ability and fulfils all the legal requirements. I will not take a block booking from you in your own car until we are satisfied it is safe and in both our interests to do so.
Q: Can I book the school car for my test ?
A: Yes – providing you have taken a course of lessons with us and we are satisfied that you have achieved a safe standard of driving.
Q: What is Pass Plus and why should I consider it ?
A; Even though you have passed your test you are still relatively inexperienced- you may never have driven on a motorway for example. You may be an experienced driver who has never undergone formal training – perhaps never even passed a driving test. Ask yourself – are you really comfortable in your car – are you anxious reverse parking or in a car park, driving on indoor carpark ramps, driving onto ferries, would you drive on the Continent- "Pass Plus" will help address these and many other issues.
Q: How much does a lesson cost?
A: A standard one hour lesson in our car currently costs €35. Course booking, theory lessons, and use of your car etc will cost less. For a full price list please phone or Email me with your requirements.

Q: What Is Your Sucess Rate.

A: Before answering this I would ask you to query carefully any claims you may recieve from other schools. At the very least - please be sceptical. Claims such as "xxx% test pass rates" or "YYY's most sucessful school" should at the very least be able to show how such claims are verified or arrived at. Personally I know of no basis for such comparisons, ask for the figures and ask to see how they were calculated, ask to see the overall data. Ask if the test sucess rate figures include all trainees including trainees taking one or two lessons- and always remember - its your experience that counts.

My sucess rate is 100% - guaranteed. I guarantee that every trainee will get my best and absolute attention on every lesson. I guarantee that the information I provide is correct and accurate. I guarantee that every lesson will be structured to your needs and abilities - I guarantee that you will be satisfied with my efforts on your behalf - 100% of the time.

 

Remember on all your lessons - bring your drivers licence, your glasses if needed and wear flat soled comfortable shoes.
