How to Explain & Demonstrate Skills and Techniques

As part of ADI Network's partnership with Intelligent Instructor+, we bring you free driving instructor training and continued professional development each month.

This month, we've got a brilliant video from industry expert and regular contributor Ray Seagrave. It delves into key aspects such as ensuring learners have ample practice opportunities, providing constructive and specific feedback, and encouraging self-assessment to build independence.

What you'll take away

This video will equip you with the skills and confidence to:

1. Introduce different methods of teaching learners to practice skills, including repetition, gradual complexity and adapting pace.
2. Know how you can turn giving feedback to learners into a positive experience that encourages growth and self-reflection.
3. Encourage learners to practice outside of driving lessons with a structured plan and an ongoing feedback loop.
4. Guide a learner to develop key skills for independent driving through self-reflection and a growth mindset.
5. Improve your les structure and goal setting, allowing you to identify when to introduce new skills and when to keep working on existing ones.
