If you’re looking for a driving instructor who is thorough, calm, patient, understanding and someone who can have a laugh – book lessons with Sonal!
Sonal had the best tips and tricks to help me perfectly parallel park, forward bay park and reverse bay park, as these were manoeuvres that I struggled with, but I now have the confidence to do these on my own using her tricks.
Before my test, we covered many of the test routes, ensuring to cover one way roads, tight roads, double roundabouts, dual carriageways, turning right at junctions, approaching ‘STOP’ signs, etc. This enabled me to feel confident as I was ready for any ‘surprising’ situation that could have arose during my test.
Also, Sonal helped me to become more aware and observant whilst driving, which has ultimately made me become a safer driver. For example, simple (but important) things such as looking in the mirrors before changing lanes, looking around and over your shoulder before moving off or doing a manoeuvre, and stopping at zebra crossings if there is someone about to cross – are just a few examples of things that I didn’t really use to do before, but as Sonal had covered these things with me so many times, I now naturally ensure to do these things.
But driving lessons are a 2 way thing – you have to listen to what your instructor says, and then keep practicing until it’s naturally built into your own thought processes – this is what Sonal helps you to achieve, and that’s when you both know you’re ready for a test.
