(LONG STORY SHORT..)

I was once asked what would I do if money didn't exist. 🤔 Long story short, my answer was in some form teaching or coaching others. As I was a football coach, this led me to embark on the journey to become a P.E. Teacher.

Between 2013 and 2016, I went to Nottingham Trent Uni and got a degree in Sport and Education.🎓However, finding a job teaching P.E. was quite the challenge. Whilst searching for a job, I ended up working at Tesco, and there I became a delivery driver. Whilst at Tesco, a colleague asked me, "If I can't be a PE teacher, is there anything else I'd like to teach?" And my response was, "the only other thing other than sport I love is driving." (💡). That's when it clicked that I could be a driving instructor and combine my love for teaching and driving.

Fast forward a few years, I start my training journey with Bill Plant Driving School, August 2018. Although covid hit which delayed the journey, I finished the first 2 parts of my training to become a Potential Driving Instructor (PDI) in November 2020 and started teaching my first pupils.

After a whirlwind of a journey with covid through 2020/21, in October 2021, I passed part 3 of the course and became an Approved Driving Instructor (ADI) 😁.

I'd continued teaching, and after building my experience, I've now decided to start a new chapter and journey and part ways with Bill Plant Driving School. At the end of this month (May 2023), I will be going fully independent with my own driving school, which some of you may have seen. I'd be so grateful if you would please like and share my page to support and help me continue to grow my business 🚘

Thank you 😇
