Congratulations Dan on passing your Part 3 first time. Welcome to Belt Up Driving School! You will become a valued member of the team....
Dan Ashley ADI
I´m a qualified ADI working under the Belt Up umbrella alongside Angie and the team.
I enjoy teaching pupils of all ages and abilities to drive, helping them to develop the skills they need to pass their driving test and have a safe and successful driving career.
I understand that learning to drive does not just require physical skills; it requires determination, dedication and confidence too. I am a calm and patient guy with a friendly and approachable manner, tailoring my lessons to meet the needs and expectations of all my students with the aim of getting the best out of everyone.
I teach in a blue Renault Captur 1.5 diesel; a modern SUV style car which is a pleasure to drive and teach in.
Due to Covid restrictions and to keep myself and my students safe, I use an antibacterial spray and wipes on all touch points inside the car. I also wear a mask at all times during lessons and expect students to do the same.
If you would like to book a lesson give me a call or send me a text on 07796147357.
A massive thank you to Dan Ashley and Belt Up for helping me pass first time! I really cannot recommend them enough!
I never felt any pressure with Dan as my instructor, he was always very calm and super easy to talk to. Any mistake that happened...
My instructor was Dan and omg. He was an absolute legend. Being an “older” 👀 learner I was nervous especially after having not the best of experiences with my previous instructor. Dan had to start from scratch with me and he was a dream! Kind,
caring,...
