Before the lesson
Sleep well, wear comfortable flat shoes and bring the document requested by the school. You do not need to learn the entire technique from videos because every car responds slightly differently.
Setting your driving position
The seat must allow full pedal movement without straightening the leg. Adjust the backrest, head restraint and mirrors, then fasten the seat belt before touching the controls.
Moving and stopping
You begin in a place where coordination can be practised safely. The instructor explains the clutch point, gentle acceleration and controlled stopping, and has additional pedals if intervention is needed.
After the first drive
Write down two things that worked and one that you want to repeat. Regular practice and asking clear questions matter more than trying to make the first lesson perfect.
