Emma I'm an instructor from skipton and I only teach manual box but if you give me a chance and let me explain things to you properly I know I can have you using the clutch properly and confidently within 3-4 lessons . Your other instructor sounds like a fool to me hurrying you onto the road and not giving you proper controls lessons . I see this a lot but always turn people around quickly and get them going , 07968 842099 give me a ring we'll have a chat
