Sitting In With A Pupil
Monday, June 30th, 2008Today I had my first experience of a real driving lesson since I passed my test all those years ago!
I was allowed to sit in the back of a lesson, so I could get some experience of what really happens, and how to deal with different situations. This lesson involved performing the reversing around a corner to the left manoeuvre. After a drive to a quiet location, the procedure was explained before the pupil had a few attempts at the manoeuvre, each time needing less assistance from the instructor. Another drive back to the pupil’s house, followed by a recap on what was learned during the lesson, and two hours is surprisingly quickly over.
This lesson has confirmed my decision to become a driving instructor - this is DEFINATELY the right job for me
