I wanted to express my thanks to Damien for his help in enabling me to pass my Part 3, on my first attempt. I found Damien to be very calm, patient and thoughtful.  He was the right match as a trainer for me as he is a gentle soul and that definitely works when you are feeling the pressure! Thank you Damien.  I will be back for  ‘refreshers’ at some point I am sure. Kind regards Miranda Vero (ADI!) A Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency examiner will watch you give a client-centred driving lesson lasting about an hour to one of your pupils. During Covid times this will be reduced to just 40 minutes. The examiner will look for evidence that you meet the national standard for driver and rider training. Your pupil for your part 3 test Your pupil can be a learner or a full licence holder. They can’t be an approved driving instructor (ADI) or someone else who is preparing to take the ADI part 3 test. You can take your trainer or mentor with you, but they can’t take part in the lesson. What you’ll be marked on during your part 3 test You’ll be marked on 17 areas of competence that are grouped into 3 categories: lesson planning risk management teaching and learning strategies The 17 areas of competence are listed in the ADI part 3 test report form, which the examiner will fill in at the end of your test. You’ll get a score from 0 to 3 for each of the 17 competencies, which are added up to work out if you’ve passed the test, and what your grade will be.

Tony Cross from Ilminster, Somerset has passed his ADI Part 3 test of instructional ability First Time in Taunton, Somerset. My training to become an ADI with Blue School of Motoring was a great experience. The knowledge and structure supplied by Damien was perfect for me and his flexibility to work around my commitments was extremely helpful. Even during my second year of training which saw many months of lockdown we were still able to work on topics via Zoom which were a great help. The one to one training felt personal and I learnt a huge amount, not only about becoming a driving instructor but also about myself. After passing part 3 and qualifying as an ADI in a shorter time frame than usual due to Covid lockdowns was a true indication of the quality and professional coaching I received. Tony has achieved an amazing result, as his training was stopped several times over the lockdowns and when he finally managed to get his pink licence and start teaching clients in December of 2020, he only had a few weeks before the lockdown started. When we were allowed to teach again in April 2021 he only had 4 weeks to prepare for his part 3. All the best from Damien your trainer at Blue Tony Cross (ADI)Approved Driving Instructor Blue School of Motoring Tony Cross Passes Part 3 ADI Instructor Test

‘I was very pleased with the prompt and professional service offered by Damien at the Blue School of Motoring.  In a limited time frame , my goals and learning objectives were clearly defined by Damien. He also instilled some much needed confidence and belief , which as you see you can see ,by my green badge selfie , was a great help in enabling me to pass my ADI Part 3 exam recently. ‘ Duncan Ashman.   Part Three Rescue If you have just had a problem with your part 3 test and were not successful. Don’t worry there is always help at hand from one of our experienced ADI’s. There could be various reasons why the score you got was not higher enough to pass, such as: The method, clarity, adequacy and correctness of instruction given, or maybe it was the analysis and correction of faults committed by the pupil, your core competencies. Or it could just be nerves we all suffer from that and if your confidence has been a bit dented then maybe a few hours of rebuilding your basic skills will give you the drive to pass next time. All of these things can rectified with perhaps a different set of eyes, some of the area’s you failed on are basic core competencies, fault analysis and timing of intervention, and maybe its juts the ability to take control back in a situation where the examiner is now in control. It’s always best not to leave it until your third attempt before you try another trainer. At Blue our ORDIT Driving Instructor Trainers will provide a course based on your individual requirements, and we will go over with you first and build a strategy for your next successful part three attempt. Training courses are structured for you, you can either do a few hours or half a day or a complete days training, sometimes this dependant on how far away you live, when your next part 3 attempt is, so we are very flexible and always willing to help you the client. Part 3 ADI Test pass for Duncan Ashman  

Becoming a driving instructor is a wonderful, rewarding way to make good money helping impart your knowledge and skills to a new generation of responsible drivers. If you’ve recently joined our ranks, welcome! 2020 is sure to be an exciting year as more and more people of all ages and backgrounds decide that this is the year where they’ll take control of their on-the-road autonomy and learn to drive. Being a driving instructor is a great career for those who crave variety and independence. No two days will ever be the same, and you’ll get to make a lasting difference to people’s lives as you imbue them with the skills to navigate our nation’s highways in safety and self-confidence. But, as any veteran driving instructor will tell you, there will also be times when you’re unsure whether to double up with laughter or weep for the future of humanity. You may have numerous moments where your life flashes before your eyes even if you find yourself laughing heartily about them 24 hours later. Image by Manfred Richer via Pixabay As the year draws to a close, let’s look at some hilarious (and scary) things that could happen to you while giving driving lessons in 2020. Hopefully, you won’t encounter them all in your first year… Autocorrect mishaps Many of your cool young students will likely prefer to communicate via text when arranging their lessons rather than over the phone. And this can often result in unintentional hilarity. From dubious “xxx”s sent at the end of a message from students who’ve just been texting their loved ones to autocorrect mishaps that make you fear for your life. Or at the very least, your marriage! Warning light misinterpretations A comprehensive knowledge of warning lights is both an essential part of vehicle maintenance and integral to safe driving. But… sometimes the symbology on warning lights isn’t as straightforward as you’d imagine. It’s possible that your students may misinterpret the radiator warning light as “someone’s thrown the keys in the river” or ESP warning light means “Spanish”. Or that the seatbelt warning sign means that they should take their hands off the steering wheel and place them by their sides. Which could have terrifying consequences. Footwear fails Today’s teenagers are as socially active and fashion conscious as they’ve always been. And in their diligence to attend your lesson on time, they may step into your car wearing their last night out’s footwear. While driving in heels isn’t illegal, it can seriously compromise a driver’s control of the brakes and result in some dashboard-grippingly close encounters at roundabouts. Wardrobe miscalculations Finally… No matter how improbable it may seem, no matter how many times they are given prior notice of a lesson, it’s extremely likely that at least one of your students will race up to your car to attend their lesson in a onesie. Or their pyjamas. Or some equally bizarre wardrobe miscalculation. Whether they’ve overslept or taken your advice on dressing comfortably for lessons a little bit too literally, it’s sure to result in some chucklesome moments throughout the year.  

Part Three Driving Instructor Test Driving Instructor Trainers will provide a course based on the following guidelines – Part 3 Test of Instructional Ability. Part Three Driving Instructor Test We will provide a complete training programme When you join Blue for a training course we first meet up for an informal chat, discuss your requirements and timescale that you would like to complete the course by. The Training The training starts with one to one in car, so all the attention is focused on you the trainee, every session is recorded and you are given a signed copy of all course material for that day, and of course the training is spread over several weeks or months, depending on your availability. What you’ll be marked on in your Part 3 Test You’ll be marked on 17 areas of competence that are grouped into 3 categories: lesson planning risk management teaching and learning strategies Conducting the Part Three Test The test must be conducted in either English or Welsh. Interpreters for the purpose of translating any other language are not allowed. If a PDI requires a Welsh-speaking examiner, they should request this on their application. Examiners will observe the PDI delivering a normal lesson with a pupil for about an hour. They will assess the PDI’s delivery of instruction to their pupil based on the criteria set out on ADI Part 3/SC and the National Standards for driver and rider training. An increasing number of instructors provide training to the emergency services. This training can include taking advantage of legal exemptions such as exceeding speed limits or not complying with traffic signs. The examiner should tell the PDI that they cannot accompany the lesson for health and safety reasons if they are told that the proposed lesson plan includes elements, which require the trainee to take advantage of the exemptions. The examiner must stop the test if the PDI refuses to change the lesson plan to take out these elements. Before the lesson starts, the examiner will ask the PDI some questions about their pupil. They should be able to state: • roughly how many hours of tuition their pupil has had • whether their pupil is getting any other practice, e.g. from parents or others  • their pupil’s strengths and areas for development The PDI should show the examiner the pupil’s driver’s record (if they have one) before the start of the lesson to help explain their current progress in their agreed training programme. To fully satisfy this requirement the PDI must: • actively recognise the need to understand the pupil’s experience and background • ask suitable questions  • encourage the pupil to talk about their goals, concerns etc. and actively listen to what the pupil has to say  • understand the significance of what they say • recognise other indications, e.g. body language, that the pupil is trying to express something but perhaps cannot find the right words These are what we mean by the elements. Another way to express it would be to think of these as the building blocks, which go to make up the lower level competence, which is being assessed.

Do You Think You Could Teach Someone To Drive? Teaching someone to drive is a commitment a lot of people underestimate; you’re going to have to attend weekly lessons for multiple people, you’ll have to make sure every student is test ready in both skill and confidence, and you’ll have to make sure you’re always using an open and friendly tone with anyone in the driver’s seat. And those are just the implicit skills! So if you already feel able to cross all of those off your list, and now you’re seriously looking into how to become a driving instructor, this is the post to double check yourself with. You want your career to be a success, and you want to be the best teacher you ever could be; here’s a few questions to ask yourself. Being able to ready people for gaining one of the most important life skills out there can be a real high, as long as you’re the type of person for it! (Source) Do You Have the Patience? Seeing as you’re someone who already knows how to drive, sitting in the passenger seat and watching someone fail at something that might seem so simple to you can be hard to handle. You might get annoyed, you might get frustrated, and you might just let all that go in the way you speak to your learner. But that’s not going to do you or them any good! So you need to make sure you’ve got plenty of patience to help someone out, as there’s a good chance they’re going to be very stressed sitting behind the driver’s wheel for the first, second, and third times. You need to take your own time in return, and always be a reliable and patient teacher to turn to when even ‘obvious’ questions need to be answered. Are You Responsible Enough? That seems like a question with an obvious answer, but you need to be someone who has the right amount of responsibility on your side. And that involves having all the right paperwork constantly to hand (a.k.a any licenses and registrations, your ID as a qualified teacher etc.), which can often be simply forgotten back at home. You’re also going to need the right insurance on your side, and there’s no guarantee the school you’re working for has the type that can over you as well. Use sites like that of Insurance4MotorTrade to help your career here, as they have plenty of details for you to follow up on Could it Work for Your Schedule? Being a driver instructor means your schedule is often going to revolve around other people’s availabilities, and that can be very frustrating. You’re constantly going to have to date lessons based on your learners needs, and sometimes that just won’t be possible according to your own diary. So you need to be as open and available as you can be, and that can be very energy sucking! Teaching someone to drive is a very big commitment; you’ve got to be incredibly prepared.

Part Three The Ability to instruct The main object of this test is to assess the quality and ability of you the PDI(Potential Driving Instructor) to ask a series of questions about a candidate’s previous knowledge of driving or car controls. You may ask yourself what would someone who has never driven a car before know about driving, well you would be surprised what a 17 year old knows, and if you don’t ask, you won’t find out. But you may also be asked to role play with a FLH(Full Licence Holder) someone who has driven for a number of years. So you need to be prepared for any type of driver. When you arrive at the test centre you will be asked to sign a declaration form, this is the marking sheet that also shows what PST’s(Pre Ste Tests) you will be getting for your part three, always take your time when signing your name so you see what you are getting. part 3 training car The part 3 exercises For each of the Part 3 Test of Instructional Ability the examiner will choose one of the exercises given below as the basis of the instruction: – safety precautions on entering the car and explanation of the controls – moving off and making normal stops – reversing and reversing into limited openings to the right or left – turning the vehicle round in the road to face the opposite direction, using forward and reverse gears – parking close to the kerb, using forward and reverse gears – how to make an emergency stop and practical instruction in the use of mirrors – approaching and turning corners – judgement of speed, making progress and general road positioning – dealing with road junctions – dealing with crossroads – dealing with pedestrian crossings and giving correct signals in a clear and unmistakable manner – overtaking, meeting and crossing the path of other road users, allowing adequate clearance. The instruction you give should be tailored to the time available and to the standard of the pupil being role-played by the DSA examiner. You will probably find it helpful to establish the depth of the pupils knowledge in each phase, by asking questions and observing the pupils performance as you would with a real pupil you had not taught before. How will I be assessed for the part 3? In assessing your performance, the DSA examiner will take into account: the method, clarity, adequacy and correctness of instruction given the observation, analysis and correction of faults committed by the pupil your general manner the way you deal with the two different roles played by the examiner, beginner, partly trained, trained, or FLH(Full Licence Holder. You will be expected to maintain control of the lesson, be patient and tactful and give encouragement to the pupil at all times. What is assessed is the relevance of the instruction for the ability of the pupil and to the particular conditions on the road on the day of the test. Blue Instructor Training will provide the most appropriate and up to date training to help you prepare the Part 3 examination

If you are fed up with working for a company where you get no recognition for your hard work, or your just fed up with working 9-5 then maybe a career as a driving instructor would suit you.

Driving instructors teach people of all ages how to operate a vehicle on the road and therefore need to be extremely patient and have excellent communication skills. There’s plenty of work in this sector, with many jobs advertised so if you’re up for the challenge here are 10 simple steps on how to become a fully-qualified instructor.

Ever wanted to work for yourself and have your own business to run, but with the safety net of an established brand behind you giving you the training and support required when you need it.

What is the ADI theory test like? The theory test is made up of two parts; the multiple choice part and the hazard perception part. The multiple choice part is delivered using a touch screen computer and mouse and the hazard perception part records your responses through the use of a computer mouse button. You need to pass both parts to pass the theory test. If you pass one part and fail the other you will fail the whole test, and you will need to take both parts again.

I would like to thank Damien, Mark and the rest of the team at Blue School of Motoring for the training and support I received to become an ADI. The fact that I was able to pass both parts 2 and 3 first time is a true reflection of Blue’s high standard of driving and instructor tuition.
