Despite not hitting the triggers set by the DVSA, Phil requested a standards check and asked if he could join me on the podcast to share his experience. I was more than happy to oblige. It's definitely an episode that driving instructors as we discuss:

• Why you would book a SC if you don't need one.
• Was it beneficial?
• What resources Phil recommends. 

We also get Phil's ultimate driving song that helped him pass the standards check, can listen to The Instructor's Spotify playlist here.

You can watch Phil's breakdown video here.
