How our Refresher Lessons work
Step-by-step back to confident driving
We start with a calm introduction lesson to understand your current comfort level and goals.
You can tell us what feels difficult – for example city traffic with bikes and trams, motorway
driving, parking or roundabouts. There is no judgement; we simply look at where you are now.
From there we create a personalised refresher plan that focuses only on the skills you want to improve. In each lesson you work with the same patient, certified instructor in a modern car, at a pace that feels comfortable for you. Step by step, you rebuild your confidence and driving becomes relaxed and familiar again.
