How Do We Help You Pass The Driving Test in Kilrush?

THE
RSA
WAY

Resilient
Stoic
Attitude

What is The RSA Way?

The RSA Way is simple. Aiding our students in building a resilient stoic attitude towards the challenges of driving education. What do we mean by a resilient stoic attitude? Learning to drive with a resilient stoic attitude is like having a secret weapon - it's a combination of practical know-how and a can-do attitude that helps you navigate any challenge with confidence and control. With the RSA Way's practical approach, you'll learn to navigate the roads with confidence, pushing through any fears, mistakes, and ever-changing road conditions you might face on your driving test. Through The RSA Way's mental training, we learn to tame stress and emotions, cultivate a positive mindset and zero in on what we can control. Unlock your full potential as a driver with The RSA Way, a holistic approach that tackles the practical and mental aspects of driving and passing the test. But it's about more than learning to drive and passing the driving test. These techniques are easily transferable to any adversity you might face in your day to day life.

Practical Preparation

The RSA Way's practical component aims to empower learners with the necessary tools to pass their driving test on their initial attempt.

The approach includes a series of mock tests that simulate the real test environment, allowing learners to experience test nerves and learn how to handle them.

The mock test is a powerful tool that helps Kilrush instructors identify patterns in learners' mistakes, allowing them to provide you with targeted guidance and support.

The practical aspect of The RSA Way package is based on a step-by-step approach to passing the driving test in Kilrush, which simplifies the whole process and eliminates guesswork.

While our instructors will normally engage with you on a normal lesson, working with you to highlight and fix mistakes a driving test is completely different.

The tester will not speak unless giving an instruction, and the learner is on their own for roughly 30 minutes trying to deal with all situations as they arise with no one to help.

The driving test environment can be quite overwhelming if you're not properly prepared for it.

The practical aspect of The RSA Way package will help you to develop the abilities of an experienced driver by providing you with practical experience of the test environment, and helping you to understand how the tester will speak, think, and what precisely they want to see you demonstrate.

The practical aspect of The RSA Way is designed to help you pass the Kilrush driving test with confidence and ease.

Mindset Preparation

The RSA Way mindset course has been designed to complement and enhance the practical aspect of The RSA Way package, which focuses solely on passing the driving test.

Together, they provide you with a comprehensive program to ensure you feel prepared for both the technical and mental aspects of the driving test.

The RSA Way mindset course is the key to unlocking the benefits of a resilient stoic attitude while driving.

By honing in on mental fortitude and emotional control, the RSA Way mindset course equips learners with the skills necessary to handle the stress and unpredictability of the driving test and everyday driving.

Through a series of exercises and lessons, you will learn how to accept and deal with adversity, regulate emotions, focus on what can be controlled, and develop inner strength and self-discipline.

With the course, learners develop the capability to broaden their perspective and retain inner peace in difficult situations, resulting in a noticeable improvement in their mental and emotional well-being.

The RSA Way offers you more than just a driving test preparation, it provides a mindset that can be applied in various areas of your life for a more positive outcome.

Whether it's dealing with a difficult work situation, a personal setback, or a relationship challenge, the ability to accept and move forward can greatly benefit our overall well-being.

Some of our driving instructors in Kilrush are happy to simply hire the car to you for the driving test without the need of taking a pretest lesson.
  • There are plenty of reasons why that might be needed. You've done your pretest preparation but you don't have a car to use for the test.
  • You planned on using your own car but one of the following issues has come up:
    • Road Tax out of date
    • Warning light on dashboard
    • Tyres too soft or worn

    • No NCT
    • Brake light not working
    • Indicators flashing white instead of yellow
    • Broken mirror
