Regular Lessons
Steady, flexible learning around your life.
The relaxed way to learn. Two to four hours of lessons each week, scheduled flexibly around work, study and family, so you build skills and confidence steadily at your own pace with no rush. Instructors are available seven days a week, and you can add extra hours at any point if you need more time than expected.

Why Zola
What every Regular Lessons lesson includes.
Checked driving instructors
We check each instructor's credentials and DBS status before introducing them to learners. You are welcome to ask to see your instructor's badge in the windscreen.
One instructor, start to finish
You are matched with one local instructor and stay with them. No rotating pool, no relearning someone else's way of teaching halfway through.
Manual or automatic, your choice
Dual-controlled cars in both, with fuel and full insurance cover included in the price of every lesson.

Regular Lessons, answered
How many hours do I need for the Regular course?+
Blocks run from 5 to 20 hours at 2 to 4 hours a week. Which one suits you depends on how much driving you have already done — each package above says who it is for, and your instructor will confirm the right starting point before you commit to anything. You can add hours later if you need them.
Is the practical test included in Regular Lessons?+
Use of the car on test day is included in every Regular Lessons package. The DVSA test fee itself is not — that is paid directly to the DVSA when you book your test.
Can I take Regular in an automatic car?+
Yes — every course is available in both. Automatic lessons cost a little more per package than manual, reflecting the higher running cost of an automatic car. A manual licence lets you drive both manual and automatic cars afterwards, while an automatic licence covers automatic cars only.
Do I have to pay for everything upfront?+
Nothing is taken when you enquire. You pay your instructor directly, and they will set out their prices, payment terms and refund terms before you commit to anything. Instructors we work with have agreed not to take advance payment for more than 10 hours of tuition at a time, so you are never far out of pocket.
