ABOUT ME
Hello, my name is Claire Hall, I am a fully qualified female Government Approved Driving Instructor (ADI) operating my own driving school.
I can provide semi-intensive driving courses, refresher lessons and weekly driving lessons in Wantage, Grove and the surrounding areas.
Why learn with me?
I have been specially trained in the use of the latest student-centred learning techniques. This combined with my caring, friendly personality will help to ensure you learn to drive quickly, at a pace to best suit your needs and in such a way that you will look forward to and enjoy every lesson.
Having been told many times that I'm a very calm person, I now pride myself on being and remaining calm in all situations, which in turn helps the training to progress quickly and safely.
Coming from a teaching/instructing background, working with children and adults of varying abilities and with various needs, I thrive on building confidence whilst seeing the 'light bulb moments'.
I have a very high first time pass rate and every student who has started their training with me have gone on to pass their test, often with great comments from the examiners.
In addition to the enhanced DBS check we have to undergo, I am also Security Cleared by the MoD, have undergone Safeguarding training, PREVENT awareness, Health and Safety training, Risk Assessor training and Fire training. I am also a qualified First Aider/Trainer and Mental Health Trainer so I hope this reassures you that you're in safe hands.

PRICING
I prepare students for a lifetime of safe driving, not just to pass a test.
The theory test must have been passed before starting lessons with me due to the huge backlog of driving tests. This will save you money on unnecessary lessons whilst waiting for your driving test.
Once you have a driving test booked (as instructors are no longer able to book them for you), I am happy to look for cancellations or arrange a swap with other driving instructors to get you a driving test date as soon as you are ready for test.
Considering there is currently a 5.5 month wait for tests, I will work hard to get your waiting time down.
I charge no extra for this service as I am invested in your learning and want you to pass your test as soon as you are ready.

Niamh
“I highly recommend Claire, I passed my test first time with her today. She’s so patient & easy to talk too. I was super nervous with not much confidence but Claire believed in me. Thank you so much"
Emily
"Calm and helpful instructor.
I did a semi intensive course with Claire which was 20 hours over 3 weeks. I only had basic driving skills before and within the third 2 hour lesson we were already going to Newbury! It helps a lot that she was so calm and easy to talk to. When you’d make a mistake there was no panic or anything, she just talks you through calmly how to fix it."

“You really helped me with my worries and I passed my test after a lot less lessons than I thought I would need. Thanks."
