Driving Lessons Skibbereen People Love
No other driving school takes the same approach as us in Skibbereen. As our student we want you to have fun during your lessons and stay safe when you drive. Striking this balance is what we are best at. All our instructors are pushed to stay on top of their game so they can deliver driving lessons that bridge the gap between theory and practice and turn our students into thoughtful, safe drivers. That means no stress and no yelling.
Here is why students call us the best driving school in Skibbereen
We want you to develop as a driver as fast as you can and as safe as you can. Our instructors don't drill the same things into you over and over. They assess your driving and focus on fixing your bad habits and building your road craft.
This level of driving instruction is fantastic but we also feel that gaps between lessons can often slow progress so all our pupils also get free access to our online training platform to help reinforce their learning.
This supportive material is to help you progress faster and stay safe. You’ll find everything from tips to better handle your maneuvers to step by step material to support you through all of your EDT driving lessons. This additional free training material is not offered by any other driving school in Skibbereen.
A Driving School in Skibbereen you can trust
When we were in school we all had our favorite teachers, the ones that engaged us and made learning fun. And then we had the opposite, those teachers that had no place in the classroom. Not all teachers are made equal and that is certainly no less a fact with driving instructors. It is easy to Google 'Driving Lessons Skibbereen' and find driving instructors near you but which can you trust to best teach you.
Knowledge and professionalism is what you need from a driving school. A place where learners are regularly passing their driving test first time.
MEET ANDREA
Andrea passed her test with us after just a few pretest lessons. She was so nervous on the day that she even had a little cry but by the time her pretest was over she was well able for the test and she smashed it. Well done Andrea!
Andreas Review ★★★★★

"I recently passed my driving test. I did a pretest the morning of the test and RSA School of Motoring really helped me! Reminded me of key things to remember threw out the exam! I had had a rough morning with my car not turning on and the guys really settled my nerves and reminded me what I needed to do to pass! I would 100% recommended the guys to any of my friends who will take the driving test in the future to use RSA School of Motoring."

Essential Driver Training: The history?
EDT Driving Lessons Skibbereen
You may not know but many years ago Ireland had one of the worst road accident records in Europe. In an effort to control these statistics the Road Safety Authority introduced a new and compulsory training initiative for first time drivers. The Essential Driver Training or EDT.
The EDT syllabus requires that 12 structured driving lessons have to be completed, stamped and uploaded to the RSA website by a registered ADI.
This 12 lesson syllabus has been designed to ensure young drivers practice vital driving skills and develop a more comprehensive understanding of road safety.

The Test: Crucial preparation
Pretest Driving Lessons Skibbereen
First you must master the rules of the road, the road signs and skills involved to control a car safely. Then you must master the conditions of the driving test and understand what to expect. Being allowed to drive alone on Skibbereen roads is a freedom you will need to earn and the driving test is your opportunity to do it. Like any exam you have ever had to sit, 80% of passing the driving test is accomplished well before the day of the test with correct preparation.
If you haven't done any preparation for your driving test the your are in the dark and being in the dark can cause a lot of fears to rise up. They so often get the best of even the most seasoned driver. So it stands to reason that we have to shine a light in the dark, eliminate the unknowns and the fear. Which is precisely what our pretest driving lessons will do.
Most driving instructors will keep giving you lessons until they ‘think’ you are ready. They 'think' you are ready but they do not really 'know'. That is because of a total lack of understanding on how the tester thinks and marks you during the test. This is not how we do things. All our instructors have been trained by ex-testers so they fully understand the driving tester and what they are looking for from you on test day.
Complete your pretest training with is and not only will you understand all four stages of the driving test, you'll know the potential test routes you may be brought on and you'll know precisely how the tester will speak to you and what they specifically want you to demonstrate.
