Tracey Ratcliffe

Local Automatic Driving Instructor

Welcome to StokeDrivingSchool.com

Hi, I’m Tracey Ratcliffe. I’m a local automatic driving instructor, and my goal is simple – to help you become a calm, safe, and confident driver. Whether you’re a nervous beginner or switching from manual, I’m here to guide you every step of the way.

Why Choose Automatic Driving Lessons?

Automatic cars are easier to learn in – no gears, no clutch, no stalling. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by manual controls, automatic lessons may be the perfect solution. They’re ideal for learners who want simplicity, confidence, and results.

Learn in a Fully Electric Vauxhall Corsa

I teach in a fully electric Vauxhall Corsa – a quiet, comfortable, and easy-to-drive vehicle that’s perfect for learners. With no clutch, no gears, and no chance of stalling, you can focus on building your road skills and confidence without added stress. It’s smooth, modern, and eco-friendly.
