Everyone loves driving so why should learning to drive be any different?

Driving made simple

I'll make learning to drive as easy and satisfying for you as possible. So your driving lessons will always feature clear explanations and demonstrations, followed by careful practice and constructive feedback.

Your driving lessons will be planned to meet your individual needs and delivered in accordance your natural learning style. Carefully chosen routes will best allow you to gain skills and confidence quickly.

Patient, professional, driving instructor

I'm an instructor who really wants you to succeed, whatever you are looking to achieve in driving. I thrive on seeing my students develop into safe and competent drivers and passing their driving test.

And you can go on to take further training later on if you want to, such as motorway driving or a Pass Plus course.

Local door-to-door service

I offer a punctual, reliable and flexible door-to-door service within the Chester and Ellesmere Port areas. Choose from home, work, school, college or university.

So, for example, you can start your driving lesson from work or school and finish at home, at no extra cost.

1-to-1 tuition guarantee

All tuition is 1-to-1. You will always receive your full allocated tuition as I would never dream of using your time to drop off the last student. Routes will be selected for your needs and according to your progress. Guaranteed.

Lessons that meet your needs

Everyone's needs are different. I'll discuss your aims with you and help you to achieve the right balance between budget and progress. Driving lessons of 2 hours, 90 minutes or one hour in length are the most popular.

Or you can choose to take a semi-intensive course of 6 to 8 hours per week if you want to pass even faster. it's entirely up to you.

Competitive prices and flexible payments

Prices are competitive and discounts are available for students, under 21s and NHS staff. You can pay by cash, cheque, credit or debit card.

You can choose to pay monthly in advance or on a lesson-by-lesson basis. By paying monthly in advance for six or eight hours of tuition you will save 10% on the cost of your driving lessons.

Here you will get full access to all the official DSA questions, all DSA practice videos, unlimited randomly generated mock tests, easy to use ways to monitor your progress and so much more. I will cover the cost of this subscription for you.

Testimonial

"Both myself and my brother passed first time with Steve. Before having lessons with Steve, I had had a number of driving instructors, with whom I never felt I was making any progress. When I discovered Steve my driving skills developed quickly and so did my confidence behind the wheel. Steve was able to iron out my major problem areas quickly, such as observations. So if your committed to passing your driving test and looking for a first time pass, Steve's your man."

Driving instructor, Chester and Ellesmere Port

As someone who is interested in getting paid driving tuition you should be aware that not all those who advertise themselves as driving instructors are fully qualified.

A fully qualified driving instructor (called an Approved Driving Instructor or ADI for short) has passed all the relevant examinations set by the Driving Standards Agency (DSA) and will display a green certificate in the windscreen of the car whilst teaching.

A part qualified driving instructor, known as a PDI, who has yet to pass their final examination, known as the test of instructional ability, will display a pink certificate which is valid for only six months.

The DSA regularly assesses all driving instructors. Chester Multi-Purpose Driving Test Centre, located at Saighton Camp, Huntington is where these assessments, known as check tests, take place locally. Based on their performance on the check test each driving instructor is awarded a grade between 1 and 6, grade 6 being the highest possible.

Cheap Driving Lessons. When taking driving lessons you are investing in your future. Don't be fooled by overly cheap driving lessons.

All driving schools need to make a profit. You won't get something for nothing.

Driving schools, Chester and Ellesmere Port

Citidrive is a local independent driving school, established in 2006 by a BSM trained DSA approved driving instructor, who has previously held a franchise with the AA Driving School. We understand that you want to pass your driving test in the most cost effective way possible and are committed to help you achieve your goal.

Because the Driving Standards Agency no longer publishes test routes for driving tests it is more important than ever to choose a good local driving school that use instructors with an excellent local knowledge of the areas in which they teach.
