DRIVING TUITION
Welcome to DriveStanford an independent driving school based in Milton Keynes. Its run by Ben Stanford who's been a DVSA qualified driving instructor since March 2013.
DriveStanford tuition is educational and enjoyable meaning pupils look forward to their lessons.
We use simple instructions to achieve quick and easy learning also making sure you have the knowledge and skills to continue good driving practice after you've passed. Getting to know the pupil helps relate driving to skills or experiences they have in other parts of life. Being a local instructor means we know the tricky and busy areas that may need extra attention. We also practice in areas which you could be asked to drive in on your test, being familiar with your surroundings will put you at ease.

Since passing my driving test, becoming an instructor was always something I wanted to do. I became an instructor in March 2013, then started working under the name 'Learn With Ben' and was soon getting people through their test. 9 years on with great support from previous learners I've been able to help more and more people gain their licence each year.
I studied sport science at college which has given me the understanding of different learning techniques people have and how to deal with all types of personalities. I like to keep things light and fun between myself and the pupil so learning to drive doesn't become boring.
​
I've been very sporty since a young age playing football and cricket regularly whilst trying my hand at all different sports when the opportunity arose. I now take on a tough mudder course once a year, play squash, a bit of golf when the weathers nice and coach kids football. When I'm not instructing I love messing around with my little lad, letting him beat me playing computer games (wish I was letting him).
​
It's important for me learners enjoy their time whilst gaining and practicing skills during lessons.
Everybody is welcome at DriveStanford whether it will be your first time on the road or already hold a licence but having problems parking, visit the contacts page and let us know your situation.
