Special Needs

Learning difficulties such as Dyslexia, Dyspraxia, Autism, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, Deafness, and other similar difficulties, should not stop you from learning to drive.

It is however, very important you find the right driving instructor. My aim is to find a way that you learn, not the way that someone wants you to learn. Sometimes slight adjustments in the lesson plan can make a huge difference to your progress.

We offer both Manual and Automatic vehicles for tuition, which gives you a choice and flexibility.

At Target Tuition we can provide driving lessons to people with Special Needs:

Recently Keith Hepburn attended the Queen Elizabeth Foundation and undertook a 3 day course in 'Teaching People with Disabilities to Drive'.

The course is designed to give suitable driving instructors the confidence and skills needed to teach people with disabilities, you are then placed on the Register of Driving Instructor for Disabled People.

The course focuses on providing driving instructors with the following key skills:

• Disability Awareness

• Considering Physical Conditions

• Teaching Techniques

  • Physical Disabilities

  • Learning Difficulties

  • Hearing impairment

• Car Control Options

• Access & Wheelchair Stowage

• Driving Tests & Licences

• Car Adaptation

We believe that with our professional approach and suitable vehicles we can deliver a structured course of training for all abilities and give you the best possible advice when learning to drive.
