Grade A instructor · 20+ years in Worcester
Patient, one-to-one driving lessons in Worcester with Lee Francis, a Grade A DVSA-approved instructor who has taught on Worcester's roads for more than 20 years.

I've been teaching people to drive in Worcester for more than 20 years. I know where learners get caught out: the lanes at Six Ways, the junctions around Warndon, and the busy roundabouts on the A4440. So we practise on the roads you'll actually drive on, and the roads you're likely to meet on your test.
All my lessons are one-to-one, and I teach in an automatic car. With no clutch or gears to think about, you can put all your attention on the road, which is why so many nervous and first-time learners find it suits them. If you're not sure whether automatic is right for you, my honest guide to manual or automatic will help you decide.
We begin somewhere quiet, away from traffic, so you can get a feel for the car at your own pace.
Steering, the two pedals and the gear selector, plus how to move off and stop smoothly.
When you're ready, and not before, we drive on quiet roads. Lots of learners are surprised how far they get in one lesson.
At the end, I'll tell you how it went and give you a realistic idea of what comes next.

Worcester's driving tests start and finish at the test centre on Stanier Road in Warndon, which is also the test centre for Droitwich and Pershore learners. These guides cover the roads that worry learners most:
"From the very first lesson, he made me feel comfortable and confident behind the wheel. Lee has a great sense of humour, which made every lesson enjoyable, even when I was nervous."
"I did automatic Driving Lessons with Lee after struggling with manual, he was really helpful and finally, after a lot struggles got me to pass my Driving test! Definitely recommend!"
"Thank you Lee for all your help! I really appreciate all your advice and the fact you took time to explain everything in detail even if you had to do it a few times for me!"
No. You need a provisional licence to start. The theory test can come alongside your lessons.
It depends on you, not on a number. After your first lesson or two, I'll give you a realistic estimate.
No. I teach in an automatic car only. An automatic pass covers automatic cars only; my manual or automatic guide explains what that means for you.
