About Pete

Pete Davies is a DVSA-approved driving instructor based in Rugby, Warwickshire. He has over 27 years of experience, having set up Academy Driving Instruction in 1996. Since then he's taught more than 1,000 people to drive, with an excellent first-time pass rate and really strong local knowledge of the roads in and around Rugby. Pete is patient, friendly and professional, and learners often say his calm manner and clear explanations make lessons much less stressful. He's especially good with nervous learners and people who've struggled with test anxiety before. Pete focuses on building your confidence and keeping you safe on the road. He teaches in a 1.5 litre diesel Renault Clio and covers everything from the basics through to test prep and support with test retakes. Many of his pupils go on to recommend him to friends and family, which says a lot about why he's so trusted for driving lessons in Rugby and the surrounding areas.

RThis was one of the best decisions I made. The instructor was amazing and really patient because I'm not a native, I thought that would be a language barrier, but no, it was an incredible experience, they are really patient and caring for their pupils. This is why I really recommend it to anyone. It is never too late to accomplish your dreams, especially with these people who can help you.I'm always grateful. And I hope that they continue helping others the way they helped me. Pete is one of the best instructors that I have ever had.
