Why Empathy Driving School is Different

With me you get:

  • Calm, friendly lessons (no shouting, ever!)

  • Support for anxiety, panic or nerves

  • Experience working with neurodivergent learners (ADHD, autism, dyslexia, processing differences)

  • A driving instructor who’s also a qualified counsellor

  • Lessons tailored to your learning style and pace

  • Real-world driving skills, not just test tricks

  • A positive, fun atmosphere so you actually enjoy learning

I regularly work with:

  • Nervous or anxious learners

  • People who’ve had bad past experiences

  • Complete beginners who need patience and clarity

  • Neurodivergent learners (ADHD, autism, dyslexia, etc)

  • Drivers returning after a long break

  • Learners who want to truly understand driving, not just pass

My Story (Why I teach Differently)

When I learned to drive, I was only taught how to pass the test. No one taught me how to use road signs, theory or honing the awareness to understand people, situations or wildlife on the road.

I passed… but I didn’t feel ready or safe.

I had to teach myself how to truly drive - and I did it while battling anxiety alone.

That experience shaped everything I do today.

I don’t wan’t my learners to struggle the way I did.
