Meet our Instructors

Melvyn is the proprietor of Awards Driving School in the Leicester, Loughborough, Coalville, and Hinckley areas, and has been a fully qualified driving instructor for 18 years.

Dirk gets a great kick out of seeing his pupils graduate from extremely nervous, to the point of a safe and confident driver. He also gets pleasure from seeing every one of his pupils pass their test.

Mark gets a great deal of satisfaction from seeing new pupils gain confidence, and he also enjoys taking on pupils that have not succeeded in passing the Leicester driving test after instruction from other driving schools.

Graeme says that one of the most important things that a new driver has to come to terms with is the ability to look ahead and too often, a learner driver is concerned only with what is happening directly in front of the car, rather than anticipating problems further on.

Lee is a great believer in letting pupils proceed at their own pace, rather than trying to rush them forward. She finds that by doing this, her pupils are ready for the Leicester driving test sooner rather than later.

Another born and bred Leicester lad, Phil has been a driving instructor in the city for ten years. He also covers Hinckley, Coalville, and Loughborough.
