Driving School in South Surrey, White Rock, Cloverdale, Langley
INSTRUCTOR — LIAM
It’s my goal to make you feel welcome and comfortable, by treating every person according to their individual needs.
I'm a skilled and experienced instructor, having taught students of various ages, nationalities, and language skills in Surrey and Langley. As a former overly-anxious person, I have insight into how anxiety/executive dysfunction can affect learning in new situations. This perspective allows me to communicate in a way that supports students through challenges due to anxiety and ADHD.

For Supervisors
Consult Page 3 in Tuning Up for Drivers to see 5 questions to help you determine your suitability as a supervisor. If you can’t answer “yes” to all 5 questions it’s worth considering finding a more suitable supervisor, at least for some of the practice time. Supervision is about more than just chaperoning the student to get hours. The student will do most of the actual skill building during practice and they deserve a supervisor who can provide them with supportive attention, guidance, and patient feedback.
