Elliot helped me a lot learning to drive. Not only he teaches you to pass a test but also teaches you to be a good driver and make the roads a safer place

Before I switched to elliot I had failed 3 tests and decided to switch , in 2 months I passed first time with elliot I would recommend him to everyone

Honestly the bets driving instructor ever , knew exactly what I needed too do and where too help me , super down to earth and positive all the time , made me feel really comfortable .

smashing instructor, always super friendly and calm when driving.very genuine and an amazing help when driving. couldn’t recommend more, thankyou elliot !!

Elliot is a brilliant driving instructor. He was patient, friendly, answered any questions that I had and I ended up passing first time! Make sure you book in with him!!

Learning with Elliott was simple, easy and helped me to get onto the road, would highly recommend.

Quality instructor and amazing guy!

elliot is a great instructor he made me feel really relaxed on the roads and helped me pass first time. he was so understanding and funny and i recommend him.

I could not recommend Elliott enough. I have only had one lesson with him but in that hour he has made me feel much more confident and comfortable driving after being put off by previous instructors.

Elliott helped build my confidence and helped me understand important things that helped me pass my test. Was always calm what helped me stay calm on the road.

Test Tip Of The Month For Bury

When you approach junctions, keep checking until you've decided to go. If the junction is blind, try leaning forward and moving your head as if watching a tennis match. If it's blind, don't be afraid to wind the window down to try and hear anything while you are creeping out to improve your view.

Useful Driving Test Tip For Bury

If you ever forget what direction you should be going, always ask the examiner in plenty of time. You will never fail your driving test for going in the wrong direction, but you can fail for not driving safely. If in doubt, ask as soon as possible.

Frequently asked questions...

Yes, if you wish to finish your lesson in a different area where you started your lesson, we can pair you with one of our driving instructors in Bury who can accommodate this. Just let your instructor know in advance of the lesson where you would like to be picked up from/dropped off to. We ask this so it helps them to plan out their day more easily and to make sure they can be more efficient in both your route and in getting to their other pupils.

For example, if you wanted to begin at home and be dropped off at Bury College, that would be completely fine. Whatever your request is, our driving school in Bury is very agile and can be flexible with requests like this.

Depending on your driving experience, you will very likely start your driving lessons by learning in a quiet residential area, such as Grasmere Drive. Here you will start to build up confidence driving away from the distractions and pressure of other traffic, practising moving off and stopping, and getting familiar with the car controls.

Once you have mastered these basics, you will be driving around the quieter suburbs of Bury, on roads such as Mile Lane off the A58, where you can practice turning left and right off from a major to minor road. You will gradually build up to the busier A and B roads in and around the town, until you are confident enough to tackle the busy town centre. Your driving instructor will have you practising test routes and help you to navigate the tricky areas you might face on your driving test, such as the intersection between Peel Way, the A56, The Rock and the B6222.

As you approach your driving test, your driving instructor will teach you motorway driving on the M66 and give you mock tests so that you can see what the real experience will be like before the big day.

For convenience, as it is closest to you, it is likely you will take your test at the local test centre in town. Of course, it is your choice where you want to take your test and your instructor will teach you the test routes of your chosen centre.

The easiest centre for you to learn in would be DVSA Bury. However, you do have test centres in Manchester that you could choose from. You may also want to choose a test centre based on the waiting time, especially if you cannot get one in the area you were after.

Yes, if you need to learn in an area outside of town, then we can help. We have over hundreds of instructors all over the country, all of who are Grade A-rated and handpicked by us.

We are proud to offer driving lessons in Heywood, driving lessons in Ramsbottom and driving lessons in Rossendale. To check if we cover your postcode, see the postcode checker on our Areas We Cover page.

Yes, we can confirm that our driving school in Bury provides driving lessons using only top-quality, DVSA-approved driving instructors. Not only are all of our instructors approved by the DVSA, they are also personally approved by us to ensure they meet our very high teaching standards.
