Smart Driving Tuition In Telford

Andrew’s Driving School provides patient, well-planned lessons in Telford, helping you gain confidence as you practise on the roads you’ll actually be driving every day.

Driving Lessons in Telford

Whether you’re brand new to driving or getting ready to book your test, our driving lessons in Telford follow a clear plan that keeps you moving forward. You’ll build confidence step by step, whilst practising the same road types and situations you’re likely to face on test day.

We cover most TF postcodes across Telford and the surrounding area, including Trench, Wellington, Oakengates, and Shifnal.

To help you progress faster, we plan lessons around the local challenges you’ll face as a driver:

  • Mastering Local Streets: We use the narrower roads in Wellington, Hadley, and Oakengates to perfect your clutch control, observations, and meeting traffic in tight spaces.
  • Conquering Roundabouts: Telford has many large, multi-lane roundabouts, especially near Southwater and the A442. We’ll teach you how to choose lanes early and read road markings with confidence.
  • High-Speed Confidence: We ensure you are comfortable on dual carriageways like the A442 (Queensway) and the A5.

Real On-Road Experience

At Andrew’s Driving School, we teach by driving, not by sitting at the roadside. From lesson one, you’ll spend more time behind the wheel and less time stopped and talking things through.

Learning in Telford gives you a real edge, because many lessons can be planned around the same roads used on local test routes, making the area feel far more familiar when your test comes around.

What you need to know about starting your driving lessons in Telford.

How long should I book for my first driving lesson?

How often should I have driving lessons?

For steady progress, many learners choose one or two lessons each week. Keeping lessons regular helps you retain what you’ve learned and avoids losing momentum between sessions.
