+You can also wrap your own driver with zipkin instrumentation as follows:
+
+```go
+
+import (
+    mysql "github.com/go-sql-driver/mysql"
+    "github.com/opencensus-integrations/zipkinsql"
+)
+
+var (
+    driver driver.Driver
+    err    error
+    db     *sql.DB
+    tracer *zipkin.Tracer
+)
+
+// Explicitly wrap the MySQL driver with zipkinsql
+driver = zipkinsql.Wrap(&mysql.MySQLDriver{}, tracer)
+
+// Register our zipkinsql wrapper as a database driver
+sql.Register("zipkinsql-mysql", driver)
+
+// Connect to a MySQL database using the zipkinsql driver wrapper
+db, err = sql.Open("zipkinsql-mysql", "myDSN")
+```
+
+## Usage of *Context methods
+
+Instrumentation is possible if the context is being passed downstream in methods.
+This is not only for instrumentation purposes but also a [good practice](https://medium.com/@cep21/how-to-correctly-use-context-context-in-go-1-7-8f2c0fafdf39) in go programming. `database/sql` package exposes already a set of methods that receive the context as first paramenter:
+
+- `*DB.Begin` -> `*DB.BeginTx`
+- `*DB.Exec` -> `*DB.ExecContext`
+- `*DB.Ping` -> `*DB.PingContext`
+- `*DB.Prepare` -> `*DB.PrepareContext`
+- `*DB.Query` -> `*DB.QueryContext`
+- `*DB.QueryRow` -> `*DB.QueryRowContext`
+- `*Stmt.Exec` -> `*Stmt.ExecContext`
+- `*Stmt.Query` -> `*Stmt.QueryContext`
+- `*Stmt.QueryRow` -> `*Stmt.QueryRowContext`
+- `*Tx.Exec` -> `*Tx.ExecContext`
+- `*Tx.Prepare` -> `*Tx.PrepareContext`
+- `*Tx.Query` -> `*Tx.QueryContext`
+- `*Tx.QueryRow` -> `*Tx.QueryRowContext`
