Des O’ Neill qualified as a driving instructor with the Irish School of Motoring in 2004 and set up Top Gear School of Motoring in 2005.
He became one of the first driving instructors in Cork to attain the ADI ( Approved Driving Instructor ) standard in 2006 – ADI 34330.
He has since been hugely successful in providing category B ( car ) lessons in Cork City and surrounding areas, from beginner, through EDT, to PreTest level with accurate and professional tuition.
In 2012, Des qualified as a Practitioner of NLP ( Nuero Linguistic Programming ) with a view to helping students with fears or phobias relating to driving and driving tests. Incorporating these additional skills Des has managed to overcome these issues for many students and his high test pass rate is a testament to this.
