Instructors

I am great with people and extremely helpful and passionate about what I do.

After teaching and coaching varying levels of swimming for seven years, I decided to combine my teaching skills with my passion for driving and being on the roads! My aim is to help make roads safer by teaching the new generation of drivers to a high standard!

I'm Ariette (they/them), and I have over 10 years of teaching experience, from the drum kit to essay editing to driving, so I have a lot of experience in helping people learn new skills as well as polishing their old skills.

I have taught several friends to drive over the years and, after being in a variety of careers, chose to become a driving instructor after my friends told me I have the skills and mindset to help people learn how to drive.

Following a successful career as a Primary School Teacher for over 20 years, including 10 years as a senior leader, I decided to transfer my teaching skills to driving instruction.

I'm Corrinne and I'm based on the South Coast near Brighton. My journey to becoming a driving instructor began when family members wanted to learn to drive. Combining years of driving experience and having worked in a school, it was a natural progression. 

Before becoming an instructor, I spent nearly 10 years in the automotive industry and have a wide range of driving experience. I have a very relaxed approach to teaching, and love having a bit of fun with it at the same time!

I am based in Flimwell living in the close proximity of picturesque Bewl Water and Bedgebury. I have a partner of 20 years, 1 child, 2 dogs and 1 cat.
 

A consummate professional driver for over 25 years with the bulk being in central London as a qualified traditional "Black Cab" driver. For many years Jim was an instructor for the IAM and RoSPA as an Advanced Motorcycle and Car Instructor. With the experience gained with the Advanced Driving Jim is in an excellent position to provide refresher training as well as advanced driving skills to existing drivers.

I have been a qualified instructor for over 15 years and have held the top grade possible for a driving instructor since qualifying and setting up my driving school. I’m very proud to say that my pass mark on my most recent standards check was a whopping 51 out of 51!

I qualified as an instructor with BSM in 1982. I am an IAM a ROSPA Gold and qualified to teach Fleet, LGV,PCV & B+E and trained pupils to drive lorries, buses and cars for 30 years.

In my role I aim to remove anxiety around driving by teaching my students how to be safe on the road.

Hi, I’m Mark! With 20 years of experience in the training industries I’ve had the privilege of guiding learners from car to lorry drivers.

Half of a husband and wife duo who both joined the driving school a couple of years ago.

It all started sometime ago, a work colleague in a previous job was very apprehensive about driving in snow. I offered to give her some advice on this. Afterwards she said "that was really good you should become a driving instructor". The rest is history!

Meet Rob. When he's not turning miles into smiles behind the wheel, you might catch him zipping (at a safe speed, of course!) on his bicycle through the scenic South Downs.

I get a kick out of teaching others new tricks, which is why I was thrilled to begin my journey with Jody Thomas in Summer 2022.

Combining my passion for high performance driving with a focus on safety, I bring a unique perspective to teaching.

My name is Shahin. I have lived in Brighton for 14 years. 

I love teaching pupils to drive confidently and watching them make progress is my passion. I’ve had many nervous pupils who have said I’ve made them feel at ease and comfortable and confident going into their test.
