MEET THE TEAM
Alan Taylor
I established Taylor’s Driving School back in 2018 with the vision to help others develop a vital skill of learning to drive with safety at the heart of the company and the aim of making roads a safer place for all.
I’m very welcoming, laid back and patient, creating a calm and reassuring environment for all my students. I even let my students select the music…sometimes. I’m very adaptable, altering my teaching style to suit each and every student.
Accreditations
ADI Code of Practice (ADI COP)
Brogan Smith
I’m a newly qualified driving instructor, bringing the latest training and a fresh perspective to help you become a safe and confident driver. Driving has always been something I’ve really enjoyed, and I love to be able to teach others the skills they need to succeed on the road.
I’m a very laid back and calm person, so you’ll always feel totally comfortable and at ease during lessons. I understand how daunting it can be getting behind the wheel, so I’m happy to go at whatever pace works best for you.
Available for anyone who prefers a female instructor, I’m here to help - you’ll find that we drive better anyway! I can also discuss covering areas outside of Dundee, including the PH12/PH13 areas.
