These are things that may have changed since you learnt to drive:

A common problem I find is that parents’ of learners have been telling them to stop at every give-way line. This causes the problem of learners not looking until after they stop, so not developing a good sense of slowing to an appropriate approach speed based on visibility. Please ask your learner to try to keep moving at give-way lines if there’s no vehicle(s) to give way to.
You can take out a separate insurance policy for learner and shorter than a year if you like. Then if any claims arise when they are driving, it’s on their own policy, so doesn’t affect yours. Companies like Marmalade or similar specialise in this.
You must have one of these in the car you take your test in, and I would strongly recommend you get one or similar for practice: Suction interior mirror
