Lynne Barrie came to the driving instructor industry 15 years ago after many successful years as a secondary school teacher. She initially worked on a part time basis after having a family but her enthusiasm and expertise have meant that she is now one of the industry’s leading ADIs.
Of 46,000 driving instructors, Lynne is one of a handful that have gained a Masters Degree in Driver Training from Middlesex University. She is currently the only working female ADI to hold this qualification. A grade 6 instructor, driving instructor trainer and advanced motorist, Lynne is based in the West Midlands but people come from all over the country for her highly successful training.
Lynne believes her past teaching experience was invaluable to helping her train all her pupils from learners to PDIs and ADIS needing check test help and continuing professional development. She has always used coaching techniques in her sessions and has herself attended Master classes on the subject of coaching run by Sir John Whitmore and Dr Jonathan Passmore.
She has gained a Post Graduate Certificate in Coaching for Driver Development from the East London University. This was a five day course which just 12 ADIs in the country completed in 2010.
She is author of the 'Pass Part 3' Book and 'Pass Part 3' Prompt Cards and the 'Check Test Success' Book used by a vast number of PDIs and ADIs. She is a regular contributor to the popular adiNEWS magazine.
Currently, Lynne is Chairman of the Approved Driving Instructors National Joint Council (ADINJC). She represents them on the DSA steering group for CPD and MDT (modernising driver training) and is on the newly resumed Pass Plus Board. She helps to organise the ADINJC annual conference and often talks to local associations around the country on behalf of the ADINJC on a voluntary basis. Lynne believes all ADIs need to belong to an association and that unity amongst ADIs is essential.
Recently, Lynne has been running a series of very successful seminars on driving industry related topics together with Neil Peek, the ADINJC President. She has always taken her own continuous professional development very seriously and now wants to help others in the industry with theirs.
Lynne is a member of the Institute of Master Tutors of Driving (IMTD), Association of Industrial Road Safety Officers (AIRSO), The Federation of Small Businesses (FSB) and Institute of Advanced Motorists (IAM).
