My old driving instructor use to shout at me all the times and made me dread driving lessons. He also use to be on on his phone the entire time! After 30 hours with him over a summer, I wasn’t test ready but didn’t want any more lessons with him so in the end my grandad did lots of practise with me and I passed a month later with 1 minor! Driving with my grandad made me realise that you shouldn’t dread driving lessons and I learnt to love driving again!
Same. Shouting, putting me down as a tactic to try and stop me from moving onto next skill, gaslighting me and telling me I needed her. It was so traumatic. I thought I was a terrible driver. I moved onto a great instructor. First lesson she took me onto a round about and motorway. She encouraged me to book my test. With the previous instructor I had never moved past stopping at junction and moving off, she wouldn’t let me do anything else said I wasn’t ready. After 5 lessons with the new instructor I passed. Now I’m training to be an instructor.
Driving instructor shouted across 38 hours I had with her, until I switched when I could find alternative instructor. It can really impact your wellbeing and self-confidence!
@@ProgWork138 hours of pure dread. No one learns effectively when the person teaching you is shouting at you, calling you names and belittling you. It's hard to retain information when, throughout the lesson, you've got your instructors words looping through your head, as it's filled with worry and self-doubt. Idiot.
Honestly it is a lottery what type of instructor you gonna get, I almost had to change twice, second type did not happen because it was getting close to the test and I voiced my complaints to the boss and instructor promised to do better (he was always on the phone dealing with his other job or home stuff while on the lesson - and I mean always). There are also lots of creeps out there 😢 people not being happy with their current instructor- don’t hesitate to search for better one, it is worth it. There’s just so many guys not taking this job seriously for some reason.
She can 200% pass. The only thing she needs to work on is not concentrating so hard on what she is going to do like on the roundabout or road ahead but more try to relax and scan around her more than tunnel vision with concentrating so hard and then misses something. The 2 fails I think where good fails as she has learned how to hopefully avoid them fails by relaxing and taking in more than just what she wants to do. Yeah they are terrible instructors and I like that James is teaching more than just enough. Once you've learned something like parking on the left , then on the right. Once you've passed you ain't going to drive past a space that you can use.
Hi Francis, I passed in Bristol yesterday and just wanted to give a huge thanks for making your videos. Your attitude really helped me in my lessons as my instructor was often very harsh and firm - watching your videos reminded me that learning to drive can be fun and that being enthusiastic about it is possible!! Thanks again and take care, keep being you. Also looking huge 💪
No way has Jade got her test on the exact same date and time as I have 😅 IT'S A SIGN 🙌🏻 I have only told a few people and now I'm telling the whole of YT 😂 but that is spooky.
Good luck with your driving test, you’ve got this! 🙃 I remember when I learnt to drive, my very first driving instructor was absolutely awful, he constantly shouted at me and he made me feel extremely uncomfortable nervous and anxious that it made me have diarrhoea before each driving lesson (sorry to sound so graphic), driving instructors have dual controls in their cars so I don’t understand why some of them have to be so mean, learning to drive with the right person is extremely important.
If any instructor shouts at you, point it so they can improve their behaviour. You are paying them to teach you, so they should be acting professionally. If they don’t change, then change instructors.
I had a driving instructor who shouted at me on my second lesson, completely knocked my confidence so stopped for 2 months, switched to another instructor and passed after 16hrs!
My instructor shouted at me constantly until the day before test day I snapped and pointed out that his shouting was making me make more mistakes. If I made a mistake he’d also tell me other drivers were laughing at me. Every small mistake he’d spend the rest of the lesson listing all the ways I could have killed someone if it had gone differently and at the end of the lesson he would tell me to think about that. He refused to do lessons on parking like I asked him to, I literally did each manoeuvre in his car once before test- had to practise them all on my own much bigger car. Absolutely awful! I’d have changed but the waiting lists are long and I had my test booked. Fortunately I didn’t need loads because I’d had a lot of private practise. After I passed he put his prices up which I thought was a bloody liberty given how awful he was. Test day he walked up to a young lad who had gone to test with his mate and criticised how he’d parked at the test centre telling him 3 mins before his test that he’d made it harder for himself forward parking. And when he saw which examiner I was going to have he told me how scary she was (she was actually lovely). Awful man. I want to complain to the dvsa but I don’t think he has many customers and I think he’ll know it was me- he knows where I live so I don’t even feel comfortable reporting him. I passed on Tuesday so I don’t have to see him again thank god!
@@WHRBERT He really was! Fortunately I’m 30 and pretty thick skinned but I really hate to think of the impact he’d have on a 17yo who maybe doesn’t realise that it’s not normal for that to happen in driving lessons
I still think that you should make a complaint to the DVSA as it may help potential clients of his in the future to not have to go through what you went through and because you’ve already passed your test who cares if he knows it was you who reported him his conduct and behaviour Seems so awful
Francis 21:29 is the differance between bare right and turn right (as with the video we did) this bare right was a sharpish bend but still following the main road and not turning off. this is sometimes incorrect on the TomTom and as you know can be confusing which is why the Examiner (like you did) SHOULD clarify any confusion
I have mine on the same day but at a busy time 8am lol My instructor was amazing and kind, he allways made changes to his teaching style for me because of motion sickness brain fog (weird ik) he was very encouraging and was very patient. If he had of shouted at me from the start I would of quit 70+ hours ago
My first instructor would get frustrated at my mistakes also. I changed and finally found an instructor who was younger but also very chilled like the good man of this channel. Through him my sister passed shortly after I did. Being kind and understanding pays dividends. I even managed to pass at the dreaded Erith test centre! Don't let any instructor make your driving experience something you don't look forward to. It's your time and money, spend both with someone who will be a help, not a hindrance.
Good to hear you passed ... actually I have test in erith and my instructor he started to put me down a lot ..he is so rude ..😢..today after lesson I was about to cry because of his behaviour ..I hope I passed but definitely I'm gonna find a new instructor after my test if I failed
@@shamsahennadesigns6279 I wish you good luck on your test. But if you're not happy and your instructor is putting you down and not encouraging you to learn in a calm and helpful environment then it is better you find a new instructor. Staying with this instructor when you're not happy will lose you money as well as time.
My 1st instructor spent the whole lesson’s telling me how his other students could do everything first time. Made me feel useless. The one I have now is more like a friend. I’ve helped him carry a big cupboard and picked up a bed taking it upstairs for him. He’s even after a lesson cut my grass 😂 He’s a really nice guy.
My driving instructor was an EDL member. Very uneasy vibe & made me drive in circles for hours (literally)for 3 months. I told him to eff off when the best instructor in my city became available, he made me a very confident driver & he was an ex boy racer so he taught me all the little tricks about car control & skills.
Good Luck Jade for your Test, I'll offer a tip OK chill on the hill! You can do a hill start, stay calm "I can do this" add a tiny bit more gas than a regular move off get that biting point and when it's safe let the handbrake off and go and don't worry about cars behind they should be giving Learner cars a bit more space. When I was learning an Instructor hit me across the head with an RAC handbook. That was a Christmas or 50 back, My Mother was not impressed and She didn't sugar the pill!
Honestly had the same issue with her. First started driving way back 2018 when it was still cheap than todays prices. I was on a motorbike L Plate 125cc at that moment as well since 2016 just for work commute all year long rain or shine. I was test ready but did not went through with it cause the instructor had some anger issues. So I remained on a motorbike for work commute for a while. New instructor 2023 was better albeit he also had his issues mostly car break down. But he was a bit more chill and he was of a younger age than my original instructor. But I did past with the new instructor March 2024, with 1 minor. Sold the bike and bought a car. I low key regret not getting the license earlier on but it really is nice, to have your own vehicle without having to wear full gear and getting wet and cold on a motorbike. Although it was also fun riding around on a motorbike. Specially on sunny days. But yeah, your experience with training to drive is very dependent on how good your instructor's attitude is when it comes to teaching.
My first instructor put me off driving as well. All he would do is shout and criticise. Never offered constructive feedback, tips or advise. Within my first few lessons, i had a bunch of kids bolt across the road leaving me in shock and my instructor angry (understandable). Then the instructor proceeded to chase after the kids leaving me in the car for 10 mins 😅
The amount it costs to pay for driving lessons nowadays theres no way i would accept someone shouting at me who is helping me to learn...luckily i have a brilliant instructor who has helped me to become and continue to be a competent driver 😊😊
My instructor use to talk about his sex life with his wife (or lack of) and ask me about mine. I was 18/19. 🤢 he was 65. As a young woman, I just put up with it. (I was recommended him as he taught my boyfriend and my boy friend later admitted he use to smack him on the head when he made mistakes).
My instructor is such a pain in the butt. They're always on their phone and I feel like they're holding me back. Don't think I can switch instructors now though, as I'm too invested with them so I'm stuck!!!
You never have to stay stuck with them! Your new instructor should assess your skill level on the first lesson or two and go from there! In March, I decided to start learning again after a 6 year hiatus. The instructor always got angry and would take phone calls, would tell me I’d probably pass in December or longer, and I’d paid for a block of 10 so I stayed until I’d used all the lessons. I just told her I wasn’t interested in learning anymore and went with the instructor that passed both my brothers. He built up my confidence, took my mistakes light-heartedly, had a laugh and answered every question. Next thing you know, I passed first time in August! That’s to say, staying with your current instructor is probably holding you back and will probably cost you more money in the end!
last summer my driving instructor pointed out my scars, then continued to ask if i was in the right headspace to be driving, then spoke about how he had an expensive car and he didnt want me to wreck it?? lets just say i havent had a driving lesson in over a year now
Not all instructors have the heart for the job, some of them just wamt the money without anywork. They just want you to do magic and get everything right without them helping and pass. I had to change instructor's 3 times. Thought it was so frustrating, its worth it. One of them said because they think I'm good and can drive, they get upset when I make a mistake. Said thats it? I am not paying to get abuse
Instructors shouldn't shout at their learners. If this happens get a new one, don't bother hanging around hoping it won't happen again. You're paying for them to instruct you to drive and they should behave professionally and be polite
Shouting and putting someone down when they’re simply asking for help can ruin someone’s confidence and cause them to have anxiety. You’re a learner driver and your old instructor should have controlled his temper better and acted more professionally, good on you for changing instructors. The old instructor’s behaviour was very unhealthy and unprofessional
@@DrivingSchoolTV 1) it’s never broke down🙄 my little green machine is very reliable and 2) better than a fast fiat 500 in a colour where people question if you’re having a mid life crisis 😉🤣
It's illegal and also it's not about trusting your driving are you able to deal with the unexpected like someone being on the wrongside of the road as you come around a corner or someone pulling out of a junction when they can't make it. It doesn't matter they shouldn't. It his job to deal with it as you won't have them skills at the moment fully.
I was gonna make an inappropriate joke then realised it might give people idea. Francis its probably not a good idea to reveal both the location of your guest's tests and the time and date they are having it.
10:10 that’s so true mate, when you’re a learner driver you look up to your driving instructor as a role model and for comfort, you have the power to absolutely destroy the learners confidence or to make them feel like the most confident person in the world, unfortunately most of us have a mean driving instructor, I still don’t know how I got through it all, it breaks my heart that Jade couldn’t drive for 3 years but I totally understand where she’s coming from, stick with Francis please Jade, he’s such a lovely nice good funny guy, he’ll never ever shout at you. 🙃
