Driving Lessons with Kev Drury
Hello and thank you for visiting my profile.
I am a highly experienced DVSA Approved Driving Instructor, providing both manual and automatic driving lessons throughout Maldon, South Woodham Ferrers and the surrounding Essex areas.
I trained with LDC before joining Supreme School of Motoring and have spent many years helping learners become safe, confident and independent drivers.
Every pupil learns differently, so I adapt each lesson to suit you, your confidence and the way you learn best.
My coaching style is calm, friendly and relaxed. Rather than simply telling you what to do, I help you understand why you are doing it.
This helps you make your own safe decisions, build confidence and develop the skills needed to become a safe driver for life.
Whether you are a complete beginner, returning to driving after a break or feeling nervous about learning, we will work together at a pace that suits you.
Lessons are kept positive, enjoyable and pressure-free. Many of my pupils tell me they actually look forward to their lessons because they feel relaxed, supported and comfortable in the car.
Alongside learner driver training, I also work closely with Essex Road Safety, delivering classroom and in-car training programmes designed to improve road safety and driver awareness.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you teach both manual and automatic lessons?
Yes. I offer manual driving lessons in a Ford Fiesta Active X and automatic driving lessons in a Volkswagen ID.3.

Absolutely. My calm and patient coaching style helps nervous drivers feel comfortable, build confidence and progress at their own pace.
Which areas do you cover?
I provide driving lessons throughout Maldon, South Woodham Ferrers and the surrounding Essex areas.
How many driving lessons will I need?
Every learner is different. The number of lessons you need will depend on your previous experience, confidence, ability and whether you can practise privately between lessons.
I will regularly review your progress with you and help you understand what you need to work on before taking your driving test.
Can I change from manual to automatic lessons?
Yes. Some pupils begin learning in a manual car and later decide that automatic lessons would suit them better.
As I teach in both manual and automatic cars, I can help you decide which option is best for you.
