15-18 lessons plus a couple of hours out with my Dad just before my test (passed first time). If you find that you are still struggling after 20 lessons and are only taking one lesson a week move up to two lessons a week. Did wonders for my sister when she was learning.
Exactly what i found, it took me like 38 hours in the end. The problem was i was only doing 1 hour a week, then the bare minimum my parents had to take me out (roughly 10 miles a week
). Then as i neared my first test i did 2-3 lessons a week and my overall skill shot right up, i would suggest to others to do like 2-3 hours a week learning and try to get your parents to take you out 2-3 hours also a week. That way it will be much cheaper for you, unlike it was for me.
I fialed the first time, few minors just one major though.
