Easy Lesson Plans for Driving Instructors by James Duggan Pdf

This 'Easy Lesson Plans' book has been prepared primarily with trainee driving instructors in mind who are preparing for their A.D.I. part three 'Test of Instructional Ability'. However, it will be of great value to those trainees who want to refine their driving skills for the 'Part Two Practical Test'. Fully qualified instructors will find it invaluable when preparing for and undergoing their 'Check Test' and an essential aid when giving tuition to learner drivers. It follows closely the requirements for A.D.I. training as laid down by the Driving Standards Agency who conduct all three relevant tests on the road to becoming a fully qualified driving instructor. In its various sections it includes the following. 1.Twelve complete and fully colour illustrated lesson plans covering the twelve elements which can be tested on the A.D.I. part three 'Test of Instructional Ability'. (They are also the basis for instruction for learner drivers). 2.How to get the best out of the Easy Lesson Plans book to ensure success in the various tests. 3.Over 150 fully detailed colour illustrations each of which focuses on a relevant issue and designed for ease of presentation to the learner driver. For conformity and clarification the blue car in each image is the learner vehicle. 4.Suggested phraseology which should be used by instructors to give clear and precise directions to their pupils thus avoiding incorrect responses and the dangers thereof. 5.A guide to the most commonly experienced driving faults committed by learners allowing instructors to be more aware of what to look out for. 6.A guide to signs of pupil nerves which when identified by the instructor allows a more sympathetic instructional approach when dealing with pupils who under achieve. 7.A lesson plan guide with a breakdown of all the diagrams included in each lesson plan to enable instructors to easily locate specific diagrams and illustrate various points. The lesson plans have been set out in a general logical order with a view to taking a pupil through from novice to test standard and beyond. However, the order in which the plans are presented and indeed the subject matter contained therein should be adapted to meet specific pupil needs whether they be novice, part trained or fully trained and ready for the practical test. This is a new and improved edition which costs considerably less than an instructor training course, but which will achieve the same results if used properly as directed. It is a tool which can be used at all stages of your training and can be particularly invaluable on the Test of Instructional Ability where the examiner will appreciate the fact that you are working from a structured lesson plan. This publication will save you money - LOTS OF IT. See also other related publications by this author, not the least of which is "The Driving Instructor Business" and "1001 Theory Test Questions for Trainee Instructors." Why pay out huge ADI course training fees when these three books will help you through the whole training process?
