First Route Driving School was the more affordable driving course in Cornwall, but the positive reviews on Steve sealed the deal for me.The virtual portion of coursework was lengthy, but necessary and doable. I passed my G1 knowledge exam on first attempt.My anxiety was mostly with driving because I had never been behind the wheel before. Steve was a stellar driving teacher. His instructions were clear and and concise. His critique was fair and constructive, frequently offering helpful tips throughout the in-car lessons. And mostly, Steve was just a humorous and kind teacher. My nerves melted away with each lesson because I felt confident and just overall happy behind the wheel with him guiding me by my side. 🙂

The course I took, approaches the same topics of the driver's handbook, but with way more simple and easier and with the help of the Cornwall instructor Steve. He was an amazing instructor and help me loads, can’t wait for him to help my brother learn the rules of the road. Amazing guy helpful and patient, would highly recommend.

Steven Daniel

My name is Steven Daniel, and I am a driving instructor for First Route Driving School.

During the pandemic, I decided I wanted to make a career change after 15 years as a chef. I’ve always loved driving and have always been a good driver. I started looking into potential careers where I could make a living doing something that I love.

I’ve been an instructor since March 2022 and I can honestly say that I really, really enjoy it. I’ve always been in a leadership role or teaching role in my previous jobs and I am a very detail-oriented and patient person. I love the freedom of the job, making my own schedule and meeting all of the new students who I am fortunate enough to get to train/work with.

Although safety must always come first in our industry, I am a firm believer in making sure we have fun along the way. First Route is a great company to work for and also to be a student with, as my students are always telling me how much they enjoyed their experience with us.

To all my future students I look forward to meeting you and teaching you a valuable skill that you will use for the rest of your lives.
