Mark Gay

Driving Instructor (Automatic)

Hi, I’m Mark.

I was employed for about for 20 years at a local FE college, working mainly with 16 to 20 year olds, and also designed and delivered an adult evening class for some of that time. Prior to that I worked in the entertainment industry, which has involved my driving around most of the UK and many parts of Europe.

Following the pandemic it was time for a change and I started teaching people to drive in 2022, and find watching students progress and achieve their goals an incredibly rewarding job.

Before choosing this career, I worked in education, and I understand people learn in different ways, which is why I tailor lessons to suit each pupil, ensuring that the lessons are stress-free and enjoyable.

I previously lived in Portsmouth for over 20 years, and now, for almost as long in the Emsworth area. I have good knowledge of the local roads, and both Portsmouth & Chichester test centres.
