Stop stressing about Part 2, Part 3, or Standards Checks.

I’m Karen Henderson, and over the years I've conducted thousands of tests as a DVSA examiner.

 

I know exactly what’s required to get you passed and teaching to a high standard. With my support, you’ll be fully prepared to succeed.

Let's get you PASSED.

Are any of these sounding familiar?

You're feeling lost trying to figure out exactly what the examiners are looking for in Part 2 and Part 3?

Standards Checks are looming, and you're starting to panic about keeping up your grade?

Ongoing changes to driving conditions or the test environment making you confused, worried about falling behind?

It's tough out there. Becoming an Approved Driving Instructor is a big deal, and keeping your ADI status means staying sharp, but it doesn't have to be a constant uphill struggle.

You just need the right kind of guidance.

Need to pass your test? I can help.
