Mark Lambkin – Manual Driving Instructor
My name is Mark, ever since I learnt to drive I have always had an interest to improve my driving. I passed my Institute of Advanced Motorists exam at just 19 years old. I joined the Metropolitan police at 23 where I qualified as a Class 1 advanced pursuit driver by the age of 29 in 1992.
I strived to complete other courses, including armoured land rover, towing, off road and police driving assessor City and Guilds in 1995. I retired from police in January 2016 and qualified as a driving instructor in July. By February 2017, I qualified as an Education and Training teacher, where I deliver speed awareness courses for Essex County Council since July. I have also been a Bikeability trainer for children, for Essex Council since 2009. Finally my most recent achievement is the Royal society for prevention of accidents Gold Standard advanced driving qualification which I have completed in April 2018. I believe with all my qualifications it is apparent that I have a passion for teaching driving in a safe, competent and practical manner.
