Dan Goatham
Driving Instructor
Hi my name is Dan, I qualified as a driving instructor in 2007, so have been teaching for 13 years I cover the Canterbury, Herne Bay, Whitstable and Faversham areas of Kent. I live in the local area with my girlfriend Sam and love music, I play guitar in a local band called The Spoilers, often gigging away in several European countries.
I can offer a professional but relaxed and hopefully stress free teaching style, carefully tailoring the learning experience to the abilities of each individual pupil. I teach a whole range of pupils, from complete beginner’s right through to intensive courses and to those just wishing to brush-up on their driving skills. My main aim is to always encourage the overall confidence and road skills of all my pupils.
My teaching hours are flexible and I will always endeavour to fit your lessons into your own schedules whenever possible.
Dan has recently completed a train the trainer course so is now able to offer Driving Instructor Training for those wishing to become a driving instructor.
Hi my name is Caroline Dabiran from Canterbury Kent, I passed my Practical driving test with your driving instructor Dan at the Canterbury driving test Centre. I would like to say a massive thanks to Toplass driving school for providing me with such a great driving Instructor. Dan is a fantastic instructor he is patient and encouraging and very thorough. His teaching methods are gentle and very easy to understand. It’s been a pleasure to learn to drive with him 10 out of 10 would drive again!
"I came back from every driving lesson feeling both more confident than the last and that the progression I was making was well worth the money. Dan is friendly and easy to get along with, an essential quality in a driving instructor as feeling comfortable and calm is incredibly essential to first time driving. More importantly though Dan is honest about what you’re doing wrong and about how well you’re doing yet tells you in a polite way without making you feel stupid or negative about yourself, which in turn gives you the confidence you need to pass your test. With his instruction I passed my test first time and I’d honestly recommend him to anyone."
