Streets Ahead Driving School Plymouth was set up by Emma Downing, a fully qualified driving instructor based (ADI registered) in Plymouth, who gained her experience with a leading British motoring school, and has a very high first time pass rate.

Emma’s ambition is to offer a more flexible service to learner drivers, tailored to their needs and with extra support for nervous drivers and beginners.

As a working mother Emma knows the importance of flexible hours and competitive rates.

We all have to make the best use of our time and money.

She also has the patience and good humour to explain things in plain, simple terms that learners can easily understand with no jargon, or unnecessary technical terms.

“I love my job, says Emma. Driving is an essential life skill and I feel that by teaching someone to drive, I give them something that will last a lifetime. It’s a good thing to have on your c.v. And it gives you increased freedom and independence at any age.”

Emma is a great driving instructor, she's put up with me for many many years (my fault not hers)
Emma has always been really supportive of my driving & also my personal life. I not only felt comftable driving with emma, but being able to exspress my own worries about driving & the theory test. She helped me through a couple tests, which I sadly failed, but when I was ready to give up, she was able to keep me going!!! Finally I passed earlier this year, and I,000,000% no this is down to Emma’s dedication and supportive nature getting me through! Sophie (22)

I found Emma through her website after a couple failed attempts at my driving test with my previous instructor, I took a couple years off after feeling completely defeated. I found Emma through her website, she is a very patient instructor who helped me build back the confidence on the road. Emma has a way of making all your maneuvers easy to understand and capable of completing on your own, her calm attitude in the car puts you naturally at ease. I passed my test on the first attempt learning with Emma. I would highly recommend her to anyone she really is amazing at her job, she got me a pass after my fails after all. Claire (26)

My time learning to drive with Emma was great, I passed my theory test first time thanks to the help I got from Emma and soon after I put in for practical test, even though Emma didn't think I was ready I felt I was. I then failed my practical test which really knocked my confidence and I felt like giving up, but with the support and encouragement I got from Emma I soon regained my confidence and passed my test. Emma is a great instructor and always helps you to learn from you mistakes, she is very easy to get along with and she  makes you feel comfortable and confident when learning to drive. My brother and cousin have also passed their tests with Emma and she is now teaching my partner to drive as well. I would highly recommend her as an instructor to anyone. Emma (38)
