Some tips to help you: try to put yourself in his shoes. Teaching someone to drive can be scary, your life is in their hands! Don’t take his yelling to heart, he may be taking out some frustration in his life on you. I took a class and they gave a hint that might work for you. When he starts yelling just imagine he has a monkey head. Don’t laugh out loud! But that may help you relax a bit. What he says doesn’t determine your self worth.

You may hate him being picky, especially if he is a jerk. There aren’t much more annoying people as jerks who can tell you what to do. Try to reinterpret him, and take his criticism as “hot tips.” In the short run, it will be annoying, but in the long run, it may help save your life!

You may also want to practice driving with someone else who is more relaxed, maybe a friend, your parents, or a friends parents. They can help you understand tricks on how to drive better, sometimes without being as critical as people who don’t know you.

Best of luck!

My instructor was the exactly the same, she was rude and nothing ever seemed right in her eyes, no matter how hard i tried at the time. Even though she was a bit of a cow, I’m glad now she was picky because i passed first time.

Either way, good luck.

You cannot afford to make ANY errors when driving. It can be literally a matter of life and death.
