A big part of becoming a Driving Instructor in Wimborne is the fact that Paul can remember the feeling of passing his driving test. He remembers the sense of freedom and independence that this provided him with. Since that time, he has always loved driving, whether for business or pleasure and he also recognises the career opportunities that achieving a test pass can offer students.
Having passed the Approved Driving Instructors Parts 1 and 2, this enabled him to undertake driver instructor training with Pete, YES! Driving School’s Director of Training. A key part of training is working with students under a trainee licence, whilst also continuing his own instructor training. Having passed the ADI Part 3 (Test of Instructional Ability), he is now an Approved Driving Instructor in Wimborne and feels privileged to be working in this sector.
Helping a student to develop a core driving skill, from basic clutch work to judgement when crossing traffic or ultimately achieving a test pass is immensely rewarding. Paul takes pride in the fact that his driver training is client centred and tailored to individual student needs. He uses coaching skills which he had experience with in a former career in the health service. The role requires both an understanding of a student’s practical driving skills but, more importantly, how students are feeling emotionally and how this can impact on them and whether they are driving safely.
Originally from Poole, Paul worked as a certified accountant and an operational manager in commercial firms and the health sector in Dorset and Wiltshire. Through this career, meeting people and building successful working relationships were integral to these jobs. This included being a trustee in a charity organisation that provided training and development for health workers in the Southwest.
