Choose a Pricing Option

Most instructors are not struggling because they don’t know enough.



They are struggling because they are:

  • seeing things too late
  • solving the wrong problem
  • reacting instead of influencing
  • correcting behaviour without understanding it

And over time, this creates a plateau.

Lessons feel repetitive.
The same issues keep appearing.
Standards Check performance becomes inconsistent.


This Programme Fixes That



What is Micro Refinement?

Micro Refinement is a structured 60-day development programme built around one simple principle:

Small, precise adjustments in your thinking create significant changes in your instruction.

You are not overloaded with content.

You are not given a theory to memorise.

You are given 30 focused refinements, released every 2 days, designed to change how you:

  • observe
  • interpret
  • time your input
  • influence your learners

This is not a course you rush through.

Each refinement is designed to be:

  • watched
  • applied in real lessons
  • reflected on
  • built upon

Because development does not come from watching.

It comes from seeing differently in your own lessons.

What You Will Develop

Through the 30 refinements, you will begin to:

  • recognise issues earlier
  • understand what is actually causing repeated faults
  • separate behaviour from underlying influence
  • improve timing of intervention
  • reduce over-instruction
  • allow learners to think and develop independently
  • make more accurate decisions in real time

What This Means in Practice

Lessons become:

  • calmer
  • more controlled
  • more focused
  • more effective

You stop reacting to situations…

and start influencing them earlier.

What’s Included

You will receive:

  • 30 short, focused video refinements
  • Structured PDF for each refinement
  • In-car task for immediate application
  • Reflection page to develop awareness

Everything is designed to be used in real lessons, not just understood in theory.

Who This Is For

This programme is built for:

  • PDIs preparing for Part 3
  • ADIs preparing for or repeating the Standards Check
  • Instructors who feel stuck at a plateau
  • Instructors who want to refine, not restart

Who This Is NOT For

This is not for you if:

  • you want quick tips without applying them
  • you prefer passive learning
  • you are looking for surface-level fixes

This programme requires you to:

  • think
  • apply
  • reflect

The Structure

  • 30 refinements
  • Released every 2 days
  • 60-day development process

Each refinement builds on the last.

The Outcome

By the end of this programme, you will not just “know more”.

You will:

  • see earlier
  • think more clearly
  • respond more accurately
  • influence more effectively

Final Point

Most instructors try to improve by adding more.

More techniques.
More routines.
More explanation.

This programme does the opposite.

It refines what is already happening.

One refinement at a time.

Enrol Now

Start the process.

Apply it properly.

And allow your instruction to change over time.

As co-founder and Managing Director of Knowledgeablee Instructor Training Ltd, I create resources for our subscription site, write for KIT MAG, and host The KIT Podcast—but my core passion is helping instructors truly understand their learners. I’ve been an ADI since 2011, ran a multi-car school from 2015, and have trained PDIs since 2016; joining the ORDIT register in 2020 strengthened my commitment to high-quality, learner-centred training.

My teaching is rooted in coaching and behaviour change. I hold the BTEC Level 4 in Coaching for Driver Education and am accredited by Cranfield University to deliver DriverMetrics psychometric profiling, which I use to tailor learning to each individual’s motivations, risks, and strengths.
