When speaking about this proud achievement, Martin said, “Even after teaching for just over 46 years, I feel quite humbled and honoured, particularly as the nominations come directly from our own pupils.
To have four of us in the local Thatcham and Newbury area is a great honour indeed. Although we are competitors, we are all very friendly with each other and I am personally always ready to help or advise my fellow instructors.”
As if being shortlisted as one of the top UK driving instructors wasn’t enough, Martin’s book, ‘Learn to Drive… An Easier Way’, has also been shortlisted in the Product of the Year category at the Intelligent Instructor Awards.
But this book hasn’t just been a useful tool for learner drivers to buy. Martin explains, “My book is not only being bought by learner drivers and their parents, but many instructors are buying it as a teaching tool as it simplifies driving and manoeuvre tasks.”
