# Claire's Auto
Claire's Auto is a driving instruction business based in Llanymynech, specialising in automatic driving tuition across Oswestry and surrounding areas including Whittington, West Felton, Morda, Llynclys, Pant, Four Crosses and Llansantffraid.
Claire Vaughan is a DVSA approved driving instructor with 16 years of experience, offering tailored lessons for complete beginners, part-trained drivers and full licence holders seeking to refresh or improve their skills. Her teaching philosophy centres on creating a calm, patient and supportive learning environment that prioritises road safety and builds driver confidence.
What sets Claire's Auto apart is its focus on automatic transmission training. The business addresses a significant market shift: automatic vehicles now represent 54% of new UK car sales and are set to dominate as manufacturers transition to electric and hydrogen-powered vehicles by 2030—all of which are automatic. By eliminating the complexity of manual gear changes and clutch control, automatic lessons allow learners to concentrate on essential road craft such as hazard awareness and speed management. This approach is particularly beneficial for learners who find manual transmission overwhelming, helping prevent stalling and roll-back incidents that damage confidence.
Claire maintains the highest professional standards as a DBS checked, child protection trained instructor holding current first aid certification and a BTec 4 qualification in Coaching for Driver Education. She actively pursues continued professional development and adheres to industry codes of practice, ensuring pupils receive expert, ethical instruction focused on achieving their driving goals with confidence.
