Chris Conway ADI
Former shipyard joiner with 20+ years' teaching experience, Chris started his driving school in 2001 after a career mentoring apprentices. His passion for both teaching and cars shines through in lessons at £40/hour, with a Ford Fiesta fitted with dual controls so he can demonstrate manoeuvres without swapping seats. A learner who hadn't driven in 22 years passed with no minor faults, gaining confidence and knowledge that exceeded previous instruction.
