Why does the right instructor matter?

Many neurodiverse learners  have already lived their lives through challenges and trying to fit into a world that does not fit. For many of us on the spectrum  we have had rejection, anxiety, depression and the not belonging.  So it is no surprise when it comes to driving, a complex, social skill we doubt ourselves.  The majority of drivers  on the neurodiverse spectrum have gone through 4 - 6 instructors searching for the right fit. Each instructor may chip away at the very little confidence we had. I have had students tell me  stories of being called derogatory terms and that they are not capable of driving or should never drive. 
There is a wonderful quote  we love to use here at Neurodiverse driver training :“If a child can't learn the way we teach, maybe we should teach the way they learn.”― Ignacio Estrada

This is true for children and adults and especially those on the spectrum.  Not all instructors are trained in neurodiversity , inclusion or educational methods.  You need to seek out those that are trained , have experience, and  are able to be flexible to your training needs. Dynamic instructors that can bend and change the way they deliver  skills to you so you can learn the best way for you and how your brain processes. Don't give up, neurodiverse people are amazing when taught the way that suits them.
