Choosing an instructor is a commitment of both time and money. A few checks at the outset can help you understand who will teach you, what their terms are and where to turn if something feels wrong.
1
Check the badge
Approved instructors display the appropriate DVSA badge when teaching for payment.
2
Ask about terms
Clear prices, cancellation rules and test-car arrangements should be available before you commit.
3
Use official channels
If something feels wrong, use GOV.UK guidance and DVSA complaint routes rather than relying on social media claims.
