My experience
Experience that becomes calm, practical guidance
After earning my instructor certificate in 2002, I spent almost eleven years teaching at a driving school in Utrecht. I later started Autorijschool Durmus Dag so I could teach every student personally.
Today I still teach every lesson myself. That means you do not have to get used to a different instructor and I can follow your development closely from the first lesson to the exam.
My role is not only to explain the rules. I want you to understand traffic, anticipate independently and feel responsible for the choices you make behind the wheel.
My lesson philosophy
Clear expectations and room to learn
A good driving lesson is focused and relaxed at the same time. You may make mistakes, as long as we use them to understand what you can do differently next time.
Personal
I adapt explanations, exercises and lesson pace to what helps you learn.
Structured
The RIS method provides a clear sequence and makes your progress understandable.
Independent
The goal is that you learn to observe, decide and drive safely without help.
Specialized Guidance
Calm guidance when driving lessons feel like a bigger step
Driving anxiety, performance anxiety, ADHD or autism can influence how you process information in the car. We discuss what you need and adapt the lessons together.
The focus remains on learning to drive safely, with clear instructions, predictable steps and enough time to build confidence.
ADHD
Short instructions, clear priorities and varied exercises help maintain focus.
Performance Anxiety
We reduce unnecessary pressure and practise exam situations in a familiar way.
Driving Anxiety
We prepare difficult situations and approach them gradually, without forcing the pace.
Autism
A predictable lesson structure, concrete language and repetition provide clarity.
