You pay securely online. Your money is held by the school and released to your instructor in stages as lessons are delivered — and fully refunded if we can't allocate an instructor within 14 days.

Lessons are available in 90-minute and 2-hour formats, and you can book blocks of 10, 20, 30, or 45 hours for a discounted rate. All lessons are taught by ADI-qualified instructors (not trainee PDIs), so you get professional, consistent teaching every time.

Manual vs Automatic — Which Should You Choose?

Manual lessons give you a full driving licence that lets you drive both manual and automatic cars. If you're planning to drive a manual car after passing — or you just want the flexibility — manual is the way to go.

Automatic lessons are easier to learn (no clutch or gear changes to worry about), which means you may need fewer hours to reach test standard. Many students at University of Lincoln choose automatic for a quicker, less stressful path to passing.
