Experience & About Me

After graduating with a manufacturing engineering and management degree, and a postgraduate diploma in management, I have had extensive experience of working in marketing and publishing. During the pandemic lockdown of 2020, I decided to make a career change and trained to become an Approved Driving Instructor. I have been with driveJohnson's since 2022, and am delighted to be able to help learners learn a valuable life skill every day. My experience allows me to teach learners of all abilities, from all walks of life, and help them become confident drivers.

My Favourite Quote

Two… "I cannot teach anybody anything, I can only make them think.” - Socrates “The young man might know the rules but the older man knows the exceptions.”

Memorable Moment

When I began teaching with driveJohnson's and took my teaching skills to another level.
