What the Smart Drive driver training programme in Balmedie entails

You are required to pass the DVSA Approved Driving Instructor exam before you can be a driving tutor in the UK. The exam is done in 3 parts. The first part tests your hazard perception via a multiple choice questions. This part of the test is a tougher version of the one new drivers take to get their license. The part two of the test is where you take a practical driving test similar to the one that those seeking driving license take but it is much tougher. The third part of the test assesses your ability to actually coach and tutor. Here, the examiner assesses the student after you have demonstrated your ability to demonstrate lesson planning, risk management and teaching and learning strategies. The exam is challenging, as you would expect.
