Your Car or Mine - DrivingCoach Instructor Stories

Our driving lessons over the last 2 weeks went remarkably well and here’s a quick recap:

We finally got our 20km’s per hour girl up to 60km’s per hour, I know this is hard to believe but it’s true! You go girl! We managed to cover lots and lots of roadwork in all the busy cape town areas and parking is literally coming out of our ears. We did nearly lose some poles, but luckily no major damage was caused. As for our nerves I’d rather not say anything :P, but at least our NLP skills helped our clients…

That something magic I was hoping for the boys did finally happen and there was a massive improvement in both driving and parking skills of the guys. Ok, so boys and girls are even once more…

Lots of tension in the air with lots of tests coming up, but knowing my students, they’ll come out tops as always.

Keep those spirits up and see you all soon.

Such a beautifully succesful week. We’ve had 2 of our Learners pass their Driver’s tests and also one succesful Learner’s test. I can’t remember the last time I’ve felt so proud!… (see our website for photos of the student who’s passed)

For our lesson today it was so amazing once again to see our student listening to our guidelines oh so carefully to be sure she doesn’t miss a single bit of detail. This girl really surprised me as she could do all the parkings including the nightmarish K53 observations with no hassles. Well done girl!

Another jam packed week coming up for us. We are really not complaining, we are afterall busy “changing the world one driver at a time”…

See you guys again soon!

Ok, so I know I haven’t written in a while, but that’s because we have actually been incredibly busy over the last couple of weeks.

Here’s a quick recap; on Sun 27/07 we had 3 clients. One of them really amazed me, he went from “this is my first time behind the wheel” to “wow, this is awesome!”. It was an incredible sight to witness someone learning the basics so quickly, as you all know, for some it can take ages! For his next lesson, coming up this Sat, he is actually going onto the road, absolutely amazing! The rest of our clients have all been driving for a while, but it’s so nice to see how they improve with each lesson they take. Sometimes, you as the instructor also have to realise that these students can figure things out for themselves. We can guide them along the way, but eventually they have to get it right themselves, by themselves.

On Friday 01/08, I went along when one of the other instructors took one of our students for his test. He passed and let me tell you, it’s an incredibly proud moment to experience with them, knowing that you are partly responsible for their success.

This past weekend we had a number of students, and believe it or not, 3 of them were also brand new drivers. Seems like soon there will be a lot of new drivers on the road… Watch out for them :p

Until next time folks, keep coming back for more.

The Driving Coach was in action over the weekend taking 2 clients for a lesson. Boy what a day. Justice is due for his drivers test 08/08/2008 and seemed very relaxed. he is extremely positive and did very well. Samantha’s parking is exellent. Just need to get her more relaxed on the road. They booked with us again for 2 hours each next weekend. We have afterall a great special running till the end of July! Call us now on 0835787471 for details.
