Driving lessons with Alex
Whatever stage you're at, it's the same calm approach. Every lesson is just you and Alex, in a dual-controlled car.
Learner lessons
From your very first time behind the wheel to test day.
One-to-one lessons, at a pace that suits you. Each lesson builds on the last, and you always know what you're working on next.
Already had a few lessons with someone else? That's fine. Alex picks up from where you are.
“Great instructor. Pushes you to learn and develop as a driver. Focused on getting you passed quickly and safely in as few lessons as possible. Lots of handy hints to help you along the way. Good value. Top guy as well. Would highly recommend”
Nervous drivers, and second chances
Failed before, had a bad instructor, or lost your nerve.
Alex teaches in a calm, patient way, so mistakes get talked through, not shouted about.
A lot of his reviews are from people who came to him after it went wrong somewhere else, and passed.
“I started my driving journey in 2017 and failed a couple of times and then covid hit. After this I took a very long break and felt very deflated but this year 2024 I decided to start up again and change my instructor, that's when I found Alex Cross. Best decision I ever made I passed on the 18/12 and I couldn't of done it without his help made me feel at ease and if I made a mistake he made sure we calmly corrected them. I would 100% recommend him to anyone who is confident or like me very nervous and deflated from previous issues.”
Refresher lessons
Full licence, but it's been a while.
For licence holders who want their confidence back, or help with the parts that worry them most, like manoeuvres, busy roundabouts or town traffic.
“After previous experience driving i needed extra help with techniques for manoeuvres and help getting over my nerves. Alex was great with keeping me calm and gave me the confidence to pass. I would definitely recommend him and will be using him for my son to get through his test.”
Motorway lessons
Newly passed, or never been on one.
Joining, lane discipline and leaving, with a dual-controlled car and someone calm in the passenger seat.
Theory and hazard perception help
Alongside your driving lessons.
Help and advice for the theory test and the hazard perception clips, so the practical side and the theory side join up.
Pass Plus
For newly qualified drivers.
Extra training after your test to build experience on the kind of roads and conditions the test doesn't cover. Some insurers offer a discount for it, so check with yours.
