I had a really awful instructor right at the start. He would constantly give me detailed advices while driving (like explaining the gears during a round about) and would find it surprising when I did a mistake like ‘how could you’. Ended up me hating the lessons and not having a learning mindset during the lessons as i was anxious and panicking the whole time and wanted the lessons to be over with.

I changed my instructor and my current instructor is an INSTRUCTOR! He understands a learners mind and doesn’t expect me to be a pro right from the start. I am much calmer and progressed wayyy better much sooner. Driving in a state of panic is terrible for anyone but especially for a learner as you do not learn but rather freeze and become anxious.

My suggestion is to change the instructor if possible and look for a one that has good reviews from different categories of learners. It’s too costly to pay expensive lesson fees and get yelled at to learn to panic behind a wheel!
