smog   10 #37 Posted May 27, 2015 I learnt with: http://www.rivelindrivingschool.co.uk/  He was very patient with a slightly batty, sleep deprived mum and very helpful when his car broke down days before my test. Reasonable prices and block booking discount, will be recommending him to my 17 yr old. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Elphi 24 Â Â 10 #42 Posted June 2, 2015 Hi Im looking for someone who can help coach my daughter through a theory test and at least a couple of lessons a week to get her test 'ready'. She's had an instructor but he's kept cancelling, often at last minute so we need someone who can commit some time. Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Thanks  Coaching your daughter through a theory test could be unnecessarily expensive - maybe expense is no barrier? - if it is, is your daughter a "reader"? If so, she should read the Highway Code and the DVSA's "Driving: the essential skills" before embarking on theory test and hazard perception app's and websites. (Google "DVSA theory" but avoid the out of date sites - a few years back they stopped publishing the question databank but then more recently (commercial pressures) launched a subscription theory revision and testing website ... but I can't locate the link right now ...)  Edit: Here goes: https://www.dvsalearningzone.co.uk/shop/car-theory Edited June 3, 2015 by DT Ralge Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Elphi 24 Â Â 10 #44 Posted June 3, 2015 Thanks for all your messages, now sorted. Re the theory test - she's good at knowledge its the hazard perception part. She sees them (well as far as I can see) but I don't know what's gone wrong. Apparently clicking too early or too many times can lead to a fail.

Â You can use the Library online for your Theory Test free of charge. I've used this and have recently passed my theory test no issues. The hazard perception video element of this software let's you review the clip and a red area in the timeline will show when scoring commences and ends. This should give her a bit of understanding of the length of time she has when an hazard commences and how long the scoring is. There's normally one hazard to score per clip, but two can also develop, as well as in the test! None of the clips were in my test, but I passed and have my didn't test booked! I recommend the software if yout daughter is not already using it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
