Your path to becoming a Driving Instructor Now is probably the best time ever to become a Driving Instructor. With the driving tests becoming increasingly more involved and difficult to pass, it is becoming almost impossible for Mum & Dad to teach 'children' to drive to the high standard which examiners look for on a driving test. Therefore, the demand for driving instructors is continually on the increase. In order to become a driving instructor, three examinations must be taken. Part I is a Theory Test, Part II is a Driving Test and Part III is a test of Teaching Ability. Because of the complexity training to become a driving instructor is not possible without help from a professional trainer. Training courses can differ considerably from company to company, not only in the way that they are structured and where training is conducted but also in the method for payment. Most of the larger companies demand full payment in advance (often up to £3000). You may also find that you are 'sharing' your training sessions with other trainees. With '1-on-1' you choose how you wish to pay for your training. Either as an all inclusive course, or pay as you go. Whichever method of payment you choose, your training sessions are strictly 1-on-1 with you and your trainer. Also, your training will be conducted in the town nearest to where your ADI tests are carried out (no need to travel unreasonable distances. |
