FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Everything learners usually ask before booking their first lesson.
What do driving lessons cost?
Single lessons start at £35 per hour, and block bookings of 6, 10, 20 or 30 hours bring the per-hour rate down. Current pricing for every option is shown on our courses page.
How many lessons will I need before my test?
There is no set number — it depends on your starting point, how often you take lessons and how much practice you get in between. Some learners build up steadily with weekly lessons, while others prefer an intensive block. Your instructor will give you an honest estimate after your first few lessons and keep it under review as you progress.
Should I learn in a manual or an automatic car?
We teach both. Passing your test in a manual gives you a licence that covers manual and automatic cars, while automatic lessons let you focus entirely on road sense without clutch and gear work. If you are unsure, start with whichever feels comfortable — you can switch at any point.
How do block bookings and intensive courses work?
Block bookings of 6 to 30 hours can be spread over days or weeks to suit your schedule, and are a cost-effective way to plan steady progress. Intensive options for both manual and automatic tuition concentrate your hours over a shorter period. Send an enquiry and we will help you build a schedule that works.
What if I need to cancel or reschedule a lesson?
Plans change, and we try to be as flexible as we can. Cancellation and rescheduling arrangements are confirmed with you when you book — if your plans change, get in touch as early as you can and we will do our best to rearrange.
Which driving test centre will I use?
You choose the test centre. We prepare learners across Leeds, Horsforth and Walton, and your instructor will make sure you are confident on the roads, routes and manoeuvres around your chosen centre before test day.
Can I request a male or female instructor?
Yes. We have male and female instructors, and you are welcome to request the instructor you feel most comfortable with when you book.
How do I pay for lessons?
We do not take online payments at the moment. Send an enquiry or call us and we will arrange your lessons and payment directly when you book.
