Constantly being told that 'I'm not a natural driver'... Really irritating me!

My instructor keeps telling me this, whenever I have a 'bad lesson'. Its really demoralising! Surely he should be encouraging and motivating me, not reminding me that I have natural ability, so can't expect to do well?

Has anyone found their instructors say similar things?

Nah, mine went more down the route of 'So, do you mind if I touch your leg'
or 'Tell me Louise, do you like sex?'

Next time reply with 'Well it would appear that you arnt a natural instructor'

Thats horrifying!
What did you do?

Thread Starter: Don't worry about it, my Driving Instructor tells me that every week, but she also says that passing your test isn't just about being a natural its more about starying calm and collected and remembering what you have learnt!

Ignored it. I was on an intensive driving course so it was only for 2 weeks & I wanted to pass my test. I knew if I told my mum, she would have gone nuts (and rightly so) id have had to stop the course and wouldnt have been able to do my test at the end of the 2 weeks, which I wasnt going to risk.

Thankfully nothing bad happended, but looking back I wonder how at 17 (and I was literally only 17 by a month or so) I managed to ignore it. If it were now id have kicked him in the balls and probably have accidently on purpose crashed his car

I dont think I could have put up with it!
My mates Driving Instuctor (for Red) was a complete creep. He used to get my friend to drive to a cafe instead of her house after each lesson and he would insist that she would sit with him and have a cup of coffee.
She always tried to protest but her dad was all chummy with the instructor and she was too scared to tell him.
After a few weeks of this sort of treatment she ended up packing it in, she was getting really intimidated because he tried to invite her to his birthday 35th party or something and he kept emailing her weird things!

omg i didnt think this stuff actually happened. why do girls just seem to go along with it though?? maybe they like it :P

if it were a boy im sure fists would fly straight away.

Lol mine did this too, made me drive to a burger van and insisted on buying me a cheese roll and a can of Dr pepper
What was worse is that he looked exactly like this

Same teeth and everything.
