Congratulations John!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p><strong><em>\u201cI\u2019ve been thinking about changing my career for the past few years and finally decided to go ahead and do it.<\/em>\u201d<\/strong>&nbsp; Going from a desk-based role in IT to driving instructor is quite a change, teaching is something else:<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p><strong><em>\u201cI\u2019d actually been looking into primary school teaching as it had always been something that interested me. This is one of the factors that really drew me to the idea of driving instruction \u2013 it seems to offer a balance of the key career points I was looking for; teaching, independence and flexibility.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>RED aren\u2019t the only company offering instructor training, though we like to think we\u2019re the best. There are a myriad of training options out there, meaning the search for the one which suits your needs is tricky \u2013 but is essential to your success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At RED, we believe we have the experience, skill set and the essential resources to suit any potential instructors needs, and we\u2019re confident that if you do the research, you\u2019ll quickly realise this too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p><strong><em>\u201cI did as lot of research, looking at websites and ordering brochures. It was obvious that only the big nationals were offering the kind of course and structure I was looking for. RED are a brand that I\u2019d heard of through magazines, advertising and the internet.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>John made enquiries with all the major brands, and like any sensible consumer, compared the offers before making his decision.&nbsp; After a face to face meeting, John realised there was only one company offering the flexibility and quality of training he wanted. He felt RED Driving School\u2019s post-training career options would offer him the best start in his new career.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p><strong><em>\u201cI decided to train part-time around my current role, which means I can still work whilst I\u2019m training. &nbsp;This is a huge bonus, especially when you consider that training to be a teacher would have required me to take a year out of paid employment, and that would just not be feasible. &nbsp;<\/em><\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p><strong><em>What\u2019s more, the course with RED means that if I put the work in, there is no reason why I can\u2019t be qualified and earning a living as an instructor in little more than six months.<\/em><\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p><strong><em>When you make such a big life decision, to change your career, you just want to get on with it and make a success of it \u2013 it\u2019s in my hands now. &nbsp;With the additional offer to become a driving instructor with RED as soon as I\u2019m qualified, it has made the whole prospect a lot less daunting, the process easier and the future a lot more exciting.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>John is just one of the hundreds of men and women, who have seized the opportunity to get in the driving seat of their own&nbsp;<a href=\/driving-instructor-training\/driving-jobs\/>driving careers<\/a>, take up a new challenge and drive ahead to a brighter future with RED.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The winner of the RED Driving School\u2019s Free Course Fees competition is John Moulding, currently working in IT with Leicester&#8230;<\/p>\n<div class=\"readmore\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddrivingschool.com\/2013\/02\/and-the-free-course-winner-is-john-moulding\/\"> Read more &raquo;<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":562,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[5],"tags":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v19.10 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>And the Free course winner is...
