Do You Offer Lesson Packages?
Short answer: No.
Why not:
Specialised driving instruction timelines vary enormously. Some clients need 15 lessons. Some need 150 lessons. We don’t know upfront.
Package deals create pressure to “use up” lessons quickly rather than progressing at appropriate pace. They also create refund complications if funding changes or fewer hours are needed.
We charge per session so you only pay for what you need.
Discover What's Possible for You
You don’t have to commit to 20 lessons or permanent modifications. Just try one discovery session. See what vehicle modifications exist. Try different combinations. Understand what makes driving possible for your specific limitations.
No pressure. No obligation. Just genuine exploration.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can I negotiate the price?
A: No. Our pricing is standard across all clients. This ensures fairness and reflects the expertise provided.
Q: Do you offer concessions for low-income clients?
A: We can’t reduce rates below sustainable levels. BUT we can recommend ways you can save money by working hard on skill development between lessons. If you do not have access to a suitable vehicle or supervising driver between lessons, you can access our coaching videos. We can also suggest non-driving exercises and activities that help develop skills that can then be used on the road. Doing the work can significantly reduce your overall lesson costs.
Q: Are there any other costs I should know about?
A: No hidden costs. Lesson rate + booking fee + any extended travel fees = total cost.
