“Steve makes lessons something to look forward to.”
Learn to drive with confidence.
Enjoy the journey.
Friendly, patient and professional driving lessons tailored to you. Learn at your own pace, build confidence behind the wheel and develop the skills to become a safe, independent driver for life.
A supportive approach to learning
Everyone learns differently, and I believe driving lessons should reflect that. I take time to understand how you learn best, adapting my coaching to suit your pace, confidence and experience.
My lessons are relaxed, positive and encouraging. We'll celebrate what you're doing well, work together on areas for improvement and develop the skills you need to drive safely and independently.
Passing your driving test is an important milestone, but becoming a confident, responsible driver for life is the real goal.
Driving lessons tailored to you
Whether you're a complete beginner, returning to driving after a break or looking for a fresh approach after previous lessons, I'll tailor our sessions to your experience and confidence.
Lessons are 90 minutes long, in a modern manual Peugeot 208, giving us enough time to practise, reflect and make meaningful progress without feeling overwhelmed.
My focus is on helping you become a confident, safe and independent driver — not simply preparing you to pass a test.

From your first time behind the wheel to preparing for independent driving, we'll focus on what matters most to your progress.
No pressure. No one-size-fits-all teaching. Just supportive coaching that helps you move forward.
Hi, I'm Steve!
Based in Liversedge, I love helping people develop their skills and discover what they're capable of.
Hi, I'm Steve!
I'm a DVSA Approved Driving Instructor based in Liversedge, offering friendly, relaxed and supportive driving lessons across the surrounding areas.
Before becoming a driving instructor, I spent many years leading, coaching and developing people. That experience has shaped how I teach today. I understand that everyone learns differently, and I enjoy helping people build confidence, overcome challenges and achieve things they might not have thought possible.
I want you to feel comfortable, enjoy your lessons and look forward to getting behind the wheel. We'll work at a pace that suits you, with plenty of encouragement and a few laughs along the way.
For me, there's nothing better than seeing someone grow in confidence and become a safe, independent driver.

The best part of teaching is seeing confidence grow. Here's what learners have said about their experience.
“I feel 100% more confident with driving now thanks to you.”

In their own words
A little more about what learning to drive together was like.
“Steve Herd is the best driving instructor I could have of ever asked for and I could not recommend him enough. He is patient, kind and just an amazing person in general. The way in which is he teaches is just amazing he really understands how each and every person learns and takes the into consideration. He got me to pass and I will forever be grateful. He is also amazing at showing you how to fix your mistakes in a kind and positive way. Steve makes lessons something to look forward to. Monday morning will not be the same thank you for putting up with me!”
“Couldn’t have asked for a better instructor! Thank you for putting up with me! Best part was your positive reinforcement on our lessons and highlighting the great points of my driving while visiting on issues I need to focus on more. I feel 100% more confident with driving now thanks to you (even if I did keep saying I dislike your car lol) so thank you so very much for all your help and getting me to pass first time! Here’s to seeing me on the road!”
“Had a very short time with Steve as I had already had quite a lot of driving experience. I had previously failed 3 tests and after just 4 lessons Steve has managed to get me passed today! A very patience and thorough driving instructor, by far the best I have had. Made me feel so comfortable and boosted my confidence massively in the little time I have spent with him. I would recommend Steve to anyone who is looking for a driving instructor whether you are a brand new learner or just simply wanting to find someone new to learn with. Absolutely 10/10 for his teaching techniques and the way he explains things to you. So pleased I chose him and forever grateful that he helped me gain the outcome I got today!! ❤️”
