About me: I’m the owner of Break The Scale Driving School. Before becoming a driving instructor, I worked as a bus driver, developing strong road awareness and safety skills that I now pass on to my pupils. I’m proud to be a member of the Institute of Advanced Motorists (IAM), having passed with a First, and I’ve completed ORDIT training to a high standard.
Teaching style: Calm, professional, and confidence-building. I want every pupil to feel that they’re not just learning to pass a test, but learning skills that will keep them safe on the road for life.
