The cost depends on:

• Your current level: beginner, intermediate or test-ready learners may need different types of instruction.

Choosing between one-hour and two-hour lessons comes down to your stage of learning.

• Longer lessons: give you more time to practise manoeuvres, build confidence and cover longer routes.
• Shorter sessions: help you stay fully alert throughout the entire lesson without fatigue.
• Skill retention: as you advance, longer lessons let you simulate real driving conditions including longer journeys.
• Budget and timing: longer lessons reduce travel time for your instructor, which can lower the hourly rate.
