How Much Are Driving Lessons In Edinburgh?

The cost of driving lessons in the UK varies depending on the area. Currently, in Edinburgh, the price range for driving lessons is between £35-£55 per hour. A large franchise like RED, BSM, or Bill Plant usually charges a lot more money so would be at the higher end of the scale as a percentage of the money goes to the company so this has to be built into the cost. Driving lessons are usually charged at an hourly rate, you want to check that your driving instructor in Edinburgh is fully qualified and not a trainee. Usually, independent Edinburgh driving instructors will be fully qualified. However,  with the big franchises, a huge percentage of their instructors are not yet fully qualified but charging top prices.

Unhappy? Change Driving Instructor!

Learning to drive is an expensive and extremely important skill. Not only do you want to feel safe and become a confident driver, but you also want to enjoy the learning experience. I personally don’t think it is wise signing up for a big block of 10 driving lessons before you have met and been out with a driving instructor.

I would recommend Angus as a driving instructor to anybody. He was brilliant at making sure I was comfortable and his teaching method made it easy for me to quickly learn all the necessary driving skills. He was really flexible and worked around my timetable and availability. I found it really easy to chat to him during the lessons. Thanks Angus for helping me pass!

Angus is an absolutely brilliant driving instructor!! A very calm and practical teacher who never stressed me out but knew how to push me and make me feel confident in my ability to drive. Would recommend learning with him to anyone and he is perfect at explaining why to do certain things and how to fix others. Honestly just brilliant and really easy to talk to and ask any questions - thanks again!!

I can’t recommend Angus enough! After a 5 year break in driving I was anxious to get back in the car but Angus made it a positive and productive experience. His helpful YouTube videos helped me practice between lessons and he made me feel confident when I got a cancellation with 3 weeks notice and got my pass - 10/10 choice!! Thank you Angus 🙂

I just passed my test two weeks ago with Angus!I had a couple of previous instructors prior to Angus and I found him the best. Down to earth, practical and a nice guy. For sure we had our difficult days here and there, but on the whole he was patient, and is extremely professional and made me, most importantly, a good driver! I will continue to remain in contact with Angus for the odd brush up lesson and recommend him to anyone wishing to prepare for their practical test!

I would definitely recommend Angus as a driving Instructor. I found out about him through one of my friends who had been a previous student of his and had a great experience. From the beginning I felt comfortable, and he explained things in a clear and understandable way. Thanks to his help I passed first time just in time to start my first year at university, thank you Angus!

Angus was very helpful and informative when I was learning to drive. He is very knowledgeable about driving tests especially the currie test centre which proved very useful when it came to my test. I would recommend him to anyone looking for an instructor.

Angus is an amazing driving instructor and I would thoroughly recommend him to anyone learning to drive! After switching from a previous instructor, Angus clearly identified some errors which I was making and we worked to fix them in time for my test. He teaches easy ways of remembering things specifically manoeuvres which I had previously found very difficult. He is also very calm and patient and I found my confidence while driving grew massively while learning with him. As a bonus he also has very helpful resources on his website and YouTube which were great to look over just before my test. Would not recommended anyone more!!!

I can’t recommend Angus highly enough. His clear communication, patience and guidance meant I always felt safe and comfortable behind the wheel. Angus’s knowledge and encouragement helped build my confidence- not only enabling me to pass my test, but also to genuinely enjoy driving. Thanks Angus!

I would absolutely recommend Angus for anyone looking for driving lessons. He is very calm and patient and an excellent communicator when it comes to explaining issues and how to correct them. I’ve always been quite nervous learning to drive but Angus was able to help me develop the ability and confidence to pass my test.

After being recommended by friends, I found he was very positive and knew the best ways to teach new concepts of driving, while still making it enjoyable

Rory Donnelly, West Linton

I would highly recommend Angus as an instructor if you are searching for someone to learn to drive with. He is a top quality instructor and is clearly passionate about his work.

Emma Winning, Penicuik

Learning with Angus was amazing. He is enthusiastic, positive and has an approach that other schools don't have simply by caring about his students. I passed on my first attempt thanks to Angus.
