Teaching and Learning Strategies – How to Help Pupils Learn Faster, Safer, and Smarter

1 hr 30 mins··£65

A 1½ hour Zoom workshop for PDIs and ADIs who want to expand the ways they help pupils understand, retain, and apply what they’re learning.

Effective teaching isn’t just about telling pupils what to do — it’s about helping them learn what to do, understand why it matters, and remember how to do it when you’re not there.

This session explores a wide range of practical, real-world teaching and learning strategies that help you work with different learning styles, break tasks down, and support deeper thinking. Whether you're prepping for Part 3 or improving your lesson delivery as an ADI, this workshop will give you new ideas you can use straight away.

You’ll learn how to adapt your approach, offer the right level of support, and make learning stick – all while meeting the DVSA standard.

We’ll cover:

What the DVSA wants to see in Competency 6

Practical techniques to help pupils learn and apply new skills

How to use visual, verbal, and practical approaches

When to demonstrate, question, prompt, or step back

How to structure a task to suit your pupil’s needs and pace

Confident Risk Management – What the DVSA Wants to See (and How to Show It)

1 hr 30 mins··£65

A 1½ hour Zoom workshop for PDIs and ADIs who want to build confident, effective risk management skills that meet the DVSA standard.

Whether you're preparing for your Part 3 or developing your skills as an ADI, risk management is one of the most important parts of your lesson — and often the one that causes the most uncertainty.

In this session, we'll break down what confident, safe, and effective risk management actually looks like in real lessons. You’ll learn how to support your pupil without taking over, how to share responsibility, and what to say (and avoid saying) when risk appears.

You’ll explore the balance between safety and independence, how to avoid stepping in too late or too soon, and how to demonstrate your risk management clearly in an assessment.

We’ll cover:

What the DVSA looks for in Competency 10

The 3 levels of instructor support (full support, prompting, independence)

How to agree responsibility and deal with errors safely

What good risk management sounds and looks like in real time

How to use feedback and reflection to reduce risk long-term

How to Plan a Lesson the DVSA Will Love (and Your Pupil Will Learn From)

1 hr 30 mins··£65

A 1½ hour Zoom workshop for PDIs and ADIs who want to develop confident, flexible and pupil-centred lesson planning skills.

Lesson planning isn’t about ticking boxes. It’s about creating a session that supports learning, manages risk, and reflects what the pupil really needs that day.

This workshop will help you plan lessons that work in the real world – for you, for your pupil, and for the DVSA. Whether you're preparing for your Part 3, a Standards Check, or simply want to improve how you structure your lessons, this session gives you clear, practical tools to plan with purpose and confidence.

You’ll explore how to use a simple 6-step structure, how to link your plan to pupil goals and risk, and how to adapt when things change – all while staying client-centred and meeting the standard.

We’ll cover:

Planning with purpose, not paperwork

A 6-step structure you can apply to any lesson

Connecting your plan to goals, learning and risk

How lesson planning links to the 17 competencies

Adapting your plan without losing structure

You’ll leave with a clear framework you can use right away – and the confidence to plan lessons that make a real difference.

A Practical Guide to Passing the Part 3 or Standards Check

1 hr 30 mins··£65

A 1½-hour Zoom workshop focused on the key teaching skills instructors need to deliver confident, structured, and effective lessons that meet the DVSA standard.

Whether you’re preparing for your Part 3 or developing as an ADI, this session will help you understand exactly what the DVSA is looking for — and how to apply it confidently in your everyday teaching.

We’ll focus on the skills you use in the car — from lesson planning and adapting support to risk management and coaching conversations. This is about practical techniques that help you support learning, manage risk, and show real progress.

Ideal for:

PDIs developing the skills needed for Part 3

ADIs sharpening their approach or preparing for a Standards Check

Instructors wanting more confidence, clarity, and consistency

We’ll cover:

The teaching behaviours examiners want to see

A 6-step structure for effective lesson delivery

Practical use of the 17 DVSA competencies

Risk management and coaching techniques

How to adapt your support in real time

Leave with:
✔️ Structure
✔️ Practical teaching skills
✔️ A clearer understanding of what success looks like

The session 121 with Ray was very detailed and has a lot of information! It gave me a lot of understanding about, lesson planning, risk management strategies and good communication with the pupils. Would take a class with Ray again. Actually I booked a 4 session with Ray as I want to be the best that I can be !!
Thank you Gio

A Two Day Workshop with Ray, provided a good balance of input, Q&A and Break-Out Groups. This meant that you could interact and make a good connection with both the course leader and the other participants. I went away with a full set of notes which will be a worthy resource for personal reflection.

Attended a two day zoom course on coaching questions and goal setting. I certainly achieved my goals that I wanted from the course. Efficient and professional delivery and good value for money.

Ray supported with a 121 zoom meeting, providing non judgemental advice & encouragement. As an ADI, I value his knowledge & experience in the field & value his support to help me in my efforts to raise my game. Thanks so much Ray.

These courses are brilliant for hardworking instructors. The times work well for me, the pace of the course is just right after a long day and Ray's voice is a nice tone so as not to be annoying or boring. Thoroughly enjoyed learning from Ray. Thank you!
