About ADIs
Only a registered ADI is legally allowed to charge for driving tuition.
A fully qualified ADI must have:
- Have held a full driving licence for at least four years.
- Have passed a theory exam.
- Have passed a driving test.
- Have passed a test demonstrating the ability to instruct.
- Display a green octagonal certificate in the car windscreen or a pink triangular certificate for a trainee instructor.
Looking for a good ADI
A good instructor is one that you get on with and communicate with, a relaxed atmosphere inside the car helps but make sure you are learning at the same time.
Don't just book a block of lessons, a trial lesson might be a better idea.
Choose a car that suits you.
Go for an instructor who conducts himself or herself in a professional manner and who is reliable and punctual.
Don't just look for the cheapest driving lessons, what you are looking for is value for money.
Ultimately you would need fewer good lessons, you'll enjoy yourself with an excellent teacher, which would probably be cheaper.
