# Lesters Driving
Lesters Driving is an automatic driving instruction business based in Sittingbourne, Kent, run by Andrew 'Lester' Pidduck, a fully qualified ADI (Approved Driving Instructor). The business specializes in teaching learner drivers to become safe, confident and considerate road users through personalized, client-centred instruction.
Andrew brings three decades of professional experience as a Kent firefighter, including advanced driver training and emergency response driving qualifications. Combined with his teaching qualification (PTTLS), this background uniquely positions him to emphasize safety and responsibility alongside practical driving skills. He adopts a calm, patient and friendly approach, developing learners' abilities progressively from basic car controls through to motorway driving.
Lesters Driving serves learner drivers of all experience levels across the Sittingbourne area, with flexible lesson scheduling and complimentary pickup and dropoff within the locality. The business stands out for its philosophy that two-hour lessons provide superior learning outcomes compared to fragmented single-hour sessions, helping students reach test standard in significantly less time.
The instruction focuses on building independence and real-world driving competence across diverse road types—residential streets, junctions, roundabouts, rural roads and dual carriageways. Test day lessons include no additional charge; learners simply book a two-hour session in which Andrew provides transport to and from the test centre. Competitive pricing includes dedicated beginner and block lesson packages offering genuine savings for committed learners.
