Automatic Driving Lessons – Learn with Damien Cornes

Hello there, I’m Damien Cornes, a friendly and professional automatic driving instructor.

I’m here to help you achieve your driving goals in a relaxed and effective way. Learning to drive can be exciting – but it can also feel overwhelming. My calm, understanding teaching style helps learners overcome nerves and build lasting confidence behind the wheel.

Drive a Smooth and Quiet Hyundai Kona

You’ll be learning in a Hyundai Kona, a quiet and modern electric automatic car. The lack of engine noise helps you stay calm and focused, especially when tackling new or challenging driving tasks. Key features include:

• Fully automatic – no clutch or gear changes
• Quiet cabin – helps you stay relaxed and alert
• Clear driver aids – to support safe learning
• Regenerative braking – smooth and efficient stopping
• Comfortable and spacious interior

Patient Teaching – Tailored for You

Whether you’re a complete beginner or returning to lessons after a break, I tailor your learning journey to your needs. Many of my pupils have previously struggled with manual driving – but found renewed confidence in automatic lessons with me.

Local Knowledge of Stoke and Surrounding Areas

I cover ST3, ST4, and ST12 postcodes, with deep knowledge of local test routes and tricky junctions. My experience in the area means I can prepare you thoroughly for the driving test and real-world driving situations.

Confidence Starts with Feeling Safe

My goal isn’t just to get you through the test – it’s to help you become a confident, independent, and safe driver for life. I work at your pace and make sure every lesson feels like progress.
