Terry Cook is joined by Terry Lefteri to explore the difference between teaching for the driving test and preparing learners for real-life driving.

Drawing on years of experience and a background in coaching, Lefteri shares how his journey from instruction to coaching reshaped the way he works with learners. The discussion covers why focusing too much on the test can create pressure, how instructors can positively influence learners long after the test, and practical ways to bring coaching into everyday lessons.

Together, the two Terrys reflect on honesty, professional development, and how the language we use shapes outcomes. This episode challenges instructors to think beyond pass rates and towards creating safe, confident drivers for life.
