Professional experienceHi, I am Graham and I am a fully qualified, Grade A, Government Approved Driving Instructor I am also an ORDIT qualified Instructor Trainer, an Institute of Advanced Motorists Advanced and I have a Btec Award in Education and Training .
I was born in London but spent most of my adult life in Greater London before moving to Somerset in March *information hidden*I have been married to my wife; Romaine, for 26 years, and live with our two dogs in Ilminster. I have had a few jobs since leaving school at sixteen including 14years in the Royal Navy and 15years as a Partner in a building company. I have also been a Sales Trainer for a UK based international blue-chip company.
Having always been told by friends, family and work colleagues that I was a calm and relaxed type of person, and having had a lot of experience training colleagues, and subordinates in the Navy (and in my other jobs) when the last recession hit and the plug was pulled on the building industry a new career as a Driving Instructor was on the cards
I soon realised how much satisfaction the job could give me and that are few things better in life than helping learners to pass their driving test and become safe and competent drivers. Helping someone pass their test first time gives me a real buzz. As an Instructor trainer I also get a great deal of enjoyment helping those on a career change along the road to their own new careers as new Driving Instructors.
If you want to get the best out of lessons that are conducted in a calm, friendly and relaxed manner you have found the right Instructor.
