Karen Scott is a fully qualified DVSA Approved Driving Instructor.
Gaining her ADI licence in November 2023, following successful and diverse careers as a teacher and a police officer, Karen's tuition in her manual control car is hugely successful for her clients.
Her individualised and adaptive teaching techniques mean that the majority of her students pass the practical test at their first attempt.
You can rest assured that you will be fully prepared to meet the challenge!
Learning to drive is not easy! There is a great deal of information to absorb and apply. Karen's previous career experience, knowledge and skill mean that she is fully equipped to provide you with the personalised learning provision that you need.
Explore your own capacity for learning an increasingly necessary life-skill. This particular skill will give you the freedom and independence you need to be able to work and explore anywhere you choose (even if, for now, that's just your local drive-through!)
You will soon come to appreciate the many benefits you will derive from learning to drive.
Driving is definitely not just a means to an end to 'getting around:' it is something that can give you great independence, freedom and opportunity. Once you've passed your practical test, you'll have the skill-set and the freedom to be able to appreciate planning journeys and driving to YOUR destinations.
There is nothing to compare to the anticipation of a trip to a new destination; appreciate the journeys you will be able to take yourself on.
A crucial part of your driver development is reflecting on your lessons; we will analyse your successes and areas for improvement together.
The practical driving test is a time when your driving is assessed for 'faults'; my aim for you 'on test', therefore, is to pass with as few driver faults as possible - if any at all!
Being able to accurately reflect on your performance in each lesson will help you to do this.
I thoroughly enjoy driving. This is why I've chosen to teach others to do it.
I nurture my driving students (just as I nurtured my primary school pupils when I was teaching - a great number of whom are now learning to drive and passing with me), to encourage them to share that enjoyment. I want my students to enjoy their driving, the learning process and, subsequently, driving independently, safely and with confidence.
My comprehensive driving curriculum covers everything you need to know and execute to become a safe, confident and progressive driver - for life.
In my previous professions, I thoroughly enjoyed my careers both as a police officer and as a teacher.
My police driver training and experience, alongside my teaching skills, are proving to be fantastically transferable. They are also proving hugely successful for my students!
I understand that everyone has different needs and learning styles; this is why I provide individualised driving lessons to fit your specific requirements. Whether you are learning on a provisional licence in preparation for your practical test or on a full licence to develop your confidence and skill, I can create a programme that will work for you.
I teach students from Great Dunmow to Saffron Walden and the villages in between, using the Bishop's Stortford DVSA Test Centre.
I will do my best to offer lesson times to suit your availability around work and study commitments.
NB: Due to high demand, I might not be able to schedule lessons with you straight away but I do operate a waiting list and things can change quickly when other students pass their tests...
My car is the perfect learning environment for students of all skill levels. It is a manual car, equipped with climate control air conditioning for the warmer weather and heated seats, heated steering wheel and heated windscreen for the winter months.
Karen is an excellent instructor, very patient and calm, knowledgeable and gets you driving right away. Would recommend to anyone wanting to learn how to drive 😊
Thank you Karen for your guidance over the last 6 months. Your calming and positive attitude inspired confidence in my driving and helped me go from an absolute beginner to passing my test first time in only 14 lessons.
Thank you Karen for getting both our children through their driving tests. Both have been very happy to learn with you and as parents we have been really impressed with the support you gave them, the communication with us and how you have got the best from both of them despite their different personalities. It is clear you have had the best interests of your students as your number one priority throughout.
Karen is a very encouraging and supportive driving instructor; my lessons are always adapted to suit my strengths and weaknesses! She is genuine and passionate about wanting to get you test ready as soon as possible. 100% recommend.
Hi Karen,
Six years ago I thanked you for being such an enthusiastic and inspirational teacher to our daughter - it's wonderful to be back repeating the same sentiment : she's thoroughly enjoying her lessons with you and we feel confident leaving her in your capable hands.
Well done Karen!!! You are a star ⭐️
Thank you so much. My son was over the moon to pass first time and you’ve been brilliant with him.
