Why Choose Automatic?
Learning to drive shouldn't feel overwhelming. Without gears to manage, you can focus on what really matters - developing your road awareness and building natural confidence. Many of my students find automatic driving reduces their anxiety and helps them progress faster.

Why Learn With Me?
After helping many learners overcome their driving anxiety and become confident drivers, I've developed an approach that combines professional expertise with a genuine understanding of what you're going through.
Overcome Anxiety, Find Confidence.
Your journey to driving confidence starts with understanding that anxiety is a common challenge, not a barrier. My approach focuses on building your confidence gradually, ensuring you feel in control at every stage of your learning journey.
Patient, Professional, Personalised.
I pride myself on creating a calm, professional learning environment. Every lesson is tailored to your specific needs and learning style. My teaching methods are structured yet flexible, allowing you to progress at a pace that feels comfortable and achievable for you.
Comfortable, Learning Environment.
Learning in my modern, fully electric car offers a uniquely calm experience. The smooth, quiet operation helps reduce anxiety, while simple controls make driving less overwhelming. Plus, choosing electric means you're learning in an environmentally conscious way.

Learn in Ellesmere Port's varied driving environments - from residential areas to busy town routes. The area offers an excellent mix of road types, perfect for building your skills progressively. You'll experience everything from quiet suburban streets to busier commercial areas, helping you develop comprehensive driving abilities in familiar surroundings.

Frequently Asked Questions
Here, you’ll find answers to the questions we get asked the most.
Can I really learn in an automatic car?
Yes you can, and lots of people do. Whether you are starting from the beginning or switching from learning in a manual car, you can learn to drive and pass your driving test in an automatic car.
What do I need to do first?
Simple. If you don't already have one you'll just need to get yourself a provisional driving licence from The Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA). This costs £34 when you order online: https://www.gov.uk/apply-first-provisional-driving-licence
Do have I to pass the theory test first?
No, you can get started with driving lessons right away with your provisional driving licence. You don't have to pass a driving theory test first. I can help you to prepare for the theory and hazard perception test if you need help with that.
What car will I be learning in?
Your tuition vehicle will be the automatic, fully electric Hyundai Kona. It's safe, comfortable, smooth, quiet inside, easy to drive and better for the environment.
What areas do you cover?
I cover Ellesmere Port postcodes CH65 and CH66. I also cover most Chester postcodes from CH1 to CH4. I exclusively cover Chester Driving Test Centre for driving tests in this area.
Where do lessons start and finish?
You'll normally start your lessons from your home address. If you need to start and finish lessons from work, school, university or college, as long as it's in an area I cover, that's fine.
How long are lessons?
I offer and recommend a minimum lesson duration of 90 minutes. I also offer 2 hour lessons as well as half-day (3 hour) and full-day (6 hour) courses.
What are your prices?
Weekday lessons of 90 minutes: £75 each. Block of 4 x 90 minute weekday lessons: £285. Weekend lessons of 2 hours £135. Block of 4 x 2 hour weekend lessons £480.
