What Type Of Learner Am I?

What Type of Learner am I?

We have put together some categories that fit the type of learner you might be which will help you and your instructor understand what resources and teaching techniques will be required to maximise your performance and progress when learning to drive.

Auditory Learner

If you are an Auditory learner then you will often learn better when you have the practical task or theory information explained and discussed with you.
You would much rather listen to instructions rather than read up on written notes beforehand. You will probably benefit from resources such as this podcast.
You will often want to speek out to reinforce your understanding and possible ideas. You like to explain the decisions you are making and tend to need to justify them. When you speak out, you are happy to question and criticise without much fear. You are the type of person who is fantastic at verbally explaining things. You may also like things repeated by the instructor to re-enforce the task or instructions.

Kinesthetic Learner

If you are a Kinesthetic learner then you tend to learn through experiencing or doing the task for real. You like to get right in the thick of things by having a go at the task as soon as possible and are happy to be learning from mistakes in order to understand the concepts and processes. You might struggle to sit still and listen to an instruction and prefer a more hands on demonstration. You tend to be a more hands on practical person.
You will develop a physical sense of what you are learning and develop your own concepts to adapt and modify to suit similar situations.

Reading and Writing Learner

If you are a Reading and Writing Learner then you prefer to learn through written words. While there is some overlap with visual learning, you are drawn to the written article through writing it down or reading what others have written, such as our blog. You will read up on the task before hand, research concepts and reflect back on what you have experienced and learnt through writing in diaries. You are keen to analyse criticism and find valid solutions to problems.

Visual learners

If you are a visual learner then you are someone with a preference for seeing demonstrations and observing what others do. Pictures, diagrams and written directions help you picture the task at hand. If you are a visual learner then you tend to understand information better when it’s presented in a visual way. You quite like to doodle, make lists and take notes to help you learn.

Sat Nav In Your Driving Test

Sat Nav In Your Driving Test This part of the test is your independent driving part and it’ll last around 20 minutes - roughly half of the test. Following directions from a sat nav During the independent driving part of the test, most candidates will be asked to follow directions from a sat nav. The examiner will provide the sat nav (a TomTom Start 52) and set it up. You won’t need to set the route - the examiner will do this for you. So, it doesn’t matter what make or model of sat nav you practise with. You can’t follow directions from your own sat nav during the test - you have to use the one supplied by the examiner. You’ll be able to ask the examiner for confirmation of where you’re going if you’re not sure. It won’t matter if you go the wrong way unless you nake a fault while doing it. One in 5 driving tests won’t use a sat nav. You’ll need to follow traffic signs instead. If you are interested in learning to drive then please call Simon at 4front Driving School on 0790565722...

crossings

Types of pedestrian crossings When learning to drive a focus of a lesson can be based around pedestrian crossings. During your driving test, the examiner will be looking at how you deal with or react to pedestrian crossings. They want to make sure that you are planning ahead, showing awareness and responding to them them in the safest possible way. Pedestrian crossings get put into two main categories – uncontrolled and traffic light controlled. For all crossings: -In queuing traffic, you should keep the crossing clear. On approach to a crossing there will be white zigzag lines on both sides of the road to highlight there is a pedestrian crossing ahead – these also prevent people parking at any time and is a place you make no attempt to overtake. You should take extra care where the view of either side of the crossing is blocked by queuing traffic or incorrectly parked vehicles. Pedestrians may be crossing between stationary vehicles. Allow pedestrians plenty of time to cross and ...

48 Hours Notice - Our Cancellation Policy

Like most reputable driving schools, we have a strict 48 hour cancellation policy that can be found via our website. https://www.4frontdrivingschool.co.uk/terms-and-conditions Lessons cancelled at short notice or missed for what ever reason (48hrs before lesson start time) will require payment in full. It is your responsibility to check times and dates of lessons. You will find that the driving test centre follows the same rule. We can't afford to be messed about for whatever reason. At the end of the day if you cancel why should we loose out? We could fill that slot with a paying student if you give us enough warning. Unfortunately some circumstances are unpredictable, but we have to be firm and present our policy like any other business. Please read our terms and conditions and ask any questions you may have. Please note: If we were to cancel last minute, you won't of course be ...
