my driving instructor?

Question

my driving instructor shouts at me when i do wrong, he doesnt reassure me or anything - ive only had 1 lesson with him

should i drop him after my lesson tomorrow - 2nd one with him or should i give him a chance??

i just dont know, any input would be great! my boyfriend is saying driving instructors are not supposed to shout , whilst my dad thinks its great he is strict! cause i will learn properly

I am very comfortable in the driving seat, ive had lessons before, this isnt my 2nd ever lesson, ive had 25 others with a different guy but he had to stop doing it! and i was fine with him!
the only time he was nice to me was at the end of the lesson! when he said i had fantastic smooth steering and gear changing.

The extreme issues right here (which maximum replies have neglected) is:- a) have you ever had any injuries? the respond (in accordance to you) is 'No - you haven't any longer had an twist of destiny which you brought about. Eg. in case you're status nonetheless in a line at site visitors lighting fixtures and somebody rear ends you - you haven't any longer had an twist of destiny - the different motive force has. b) have you ever claimed on your coverage. No, you haven't any longer claimed on any coverage. C) you will get under 0 years no claims low value. in case you have 0 no claims low value, and you have an twist of destiny, you be replaced an more desirable top classification than a individual with 0 no claims low value and no injuries/claims. To be on the secure element - clarify which you have been 'in contact' in an incident the place criminal accountability replaced into admitted by potential of the different occasion's coverage and all expenses have been met by potential of the different occasion's coverage. (If genuine... of course). that's what coverage companies have an interest in. Did you reason an twist of destiny or make a declare that value your insurer money or do you have convictions that could recommend which you're an more desirable threat?. so a good distance as i can work out out of your question - the respond is not any.

Answer 3

My driving instructor used to get annoyed sometimes but never really shouted. The only reason i stuck with her was because even though she was a bit off hand sometimes, she was a pretty good instructor overall. I don't think though that your instructor should be shouting at you, especially after the first lesson. I would give him another go because it might have been a one off and then see how it goes. If it happens again then i would think about another instructor.

I really think you need to find another instructor. It's good that he's pushing you and you want someone who isn't scared to tell you when you have made a mistake but there are nicer ways and if he is constantly shouting at you for every mistake you make, then it doesn't sound as though he is the right instructor for you.

At the end of the day, it's your money and he is supposed to be encouraging you to improve, not shouting at you for doing something wrong. That may work for some people but it doesn't sound as though it will with you!

Answer 5

Hi,

I feel that if you don't feel comfortable in his presence then it best to go with another instructor.

You are paying him for a service and that is to teach you how to drive. There is no excuse for him disrespecting you by shouting. He is overstepping the mark.

This could be a safety issue because you may be unaware of what going on around you when driving car due to his mannerism towards you.

I would spend tomorrow looking for new instructor - someone you feel comfortable and safe with.

Answer 6

Shouting at someone nervous in control of a ton of metal is pretty stupid! Get another instructor.

(Unless you were doing something REALLY stupid, like your makeup in the mirror while driving? In which case the shout should have been a slap! ) lol

Answer 7

Get another one! You should get another one now, not even after the 2nd lesson. An instructor doesnt need to yell at you so that you learn.

Answer 8

Putting you under extra pressure by shouting at you shows he is not a very good instructor. I'd say go with an instructor with more patience.

Answer 9

Talk to him and say I dont really like it when you yell at me could you just not yell.

Everyone makes mistakes so he shouldnt yell at you! He should just say No, dont go or do that or something!

But you shouldnt drop out yet! After you talk to him if he keeps on yelling at you you should then say to him I dont want you to be my instructer any more because you yell at me and I hate when you do that!
And then just walk away! So, kind of like dumbing a guy!
Tell me how it goes if you do deside that your going to talk to him about it! Ok?

I hope my answer helped you!!!

Answer 10

i can almost agree with your dad, but you should tell the instructor that the shouting is unnerving to you, he should understand as a professional that driving is a stressful thing for a young person.

Answer 11

what did you do that he shouted at you for... if i'm in a car wiht you and you do something stupid.....that could kill me or others i might be yellin too drivign is nt a right it's a priveledge..maybe you should stay out of the drivers seat til your more comfortable... you didnt mention why he was shouting.. maybe it was something you should've known from drivers ed? very one sided...your boyfriend is saying what he thinks will get brownie points with you.. you need someone to get it into your head that you should be driving responsibly...not.... someone who is too non-chalant...:"oh my you punched the gas while reversing and ran over that little boy...hmm you werent looking...but its ok.. just dont do it next time....ok sweetie" please how is that going to be helpful


ok...so you got yelled at because you started doing things before he was finished telling you what to do and you forgot to do something important...oh yah he's a reall *** what is he thinking i mean goshh.. why would he think he has a right to get upset because you have listening problems and he's in the a potential death trap....hmmmm
