Watch and learn how EASY it can be (with the right training) to get a brand new student starting to learn the BASICS of how to drive from the passenger seat.

To be a GREAT instructor, you need to ask 'open' and 'searching' questions, and use what we call ACTIVE listening, to try to understand where your students are coming from and to see the world through their eyes. Our training will teach you how to do that.

I've seen videos of driving instructors going into great depth and detail about the emergency stop which would take an hour or more to teach to a student.
Whilst I'm not criticising those instructors or suggesting the theory isn't important - let's GET REAL!
If a student has to listen to you explaining ALL of the theoretical aspects of doing an emergency stop, covering almost every possible scenario, I promise, they'll remember virtually none of it. PLUS, they'll be bored witless and may decide to change instructors.
Alternatively, you can simply focus on getting them confident with being able to stop rapidly, correctly, and then move away safely.

Abbie practices the emergency stop
As you will see from this video, if you get your students practicing the emergency stop techniques whilst the car is stationary first, they can then usually do it quite simply on the move.
The main faults to look out for are.....
- Braking too slowly or gently
- Closing their eyes or looking down at their feet as they brake
- Not applying the handbrake once stopped
- Applying the handbrake as the car is stopping (risking a skid)
- Forgetting to release the handbrake or selecting first gear before pulling away
- Not checking both blind spots before moving off again
Gabby says 'Hi' and tells me she can't parallel park (Part 1)
Students come in all shapes and sizes; different ages; genders; backgrounds; ethnicities; personalities etc. They can be serious, quiet, nervous, confident, OR in Gabby's case a bit BONKERS (in a lovely way). Regardless though, they'll often doubt their ability to achieve certain goals. With training from AAT, you'll be able to help them realise what they think is hard can actually be quite simple.

In my experience, most ADI training courses teach novice instructors to give very 'technical' lessons packed with often unnecessary theory, and get students to practice subjects over and over again in a single lesson until they reach near perfection. That's MADNESS; is incredibly frustrating for both the student and instructor; and simply DOESN'T WORK! With AAT training, you'll learn how to EASILY get students to test standard and beyond by making things SIMPLE to understand and do.
