Hi! I'm Diane and I am a qualified driving instructor and therapist, I can help you overcome driving anxiety or test nerves, and at the same time boost your competence and confidence levels so you are able to take your test in fewer repetitive lessons. You can even use my techniques once you have passed for those times when you feel anxious in different situations, such as motorways or new places, or when you are perhaps feeling intimidated, or frustrated with other road users!

I’m really glad that this course has helped you to realise the importance of mirror checks, and acting on what you see. It can often seem like your instructor is ‘nagging’ you about mirrors. The issue is that everything else you do has a ‘physical’ consequence, like stalling if you lift your clutch too quickly, or try to move off in the wrong gear… but if you miss a mirror check there is no ‘physical’ consequence as your instructor isn’t going to let anything dangerous happen. Therefore, it’s really important to take responsibility, and it looks like you’re well on your way! Good luck!
