Why Teach-2-Drive
Pay as you go
Unlike a lot of instructor training companies, I operate a pay as you go training scheme so if you decide driving instruction isn't for you then you haven't
potentially lost lots of money.
WARNING
A lot of driving instructor training companies want big up front payments prior to training with no chance of you getting a refund if you decide after a few
sessions that driving instruction is not going to be the career for you. So buyer beware!
One to one training
Some of the larger instructor training colleges do two to one training. For some people two to one training can be good however, quite often you can be
paired up with a trainee who is at a different level or has different requirements. I personally think that one to one is better as the trainee gets undivided
attention and isn't under as much pressure when they are struggling. Another reason why I do one to one is that you are able to work at your pace and not the
trainer's.
Same trainer
You will have the same trainer so you will both know how you are progressing and where you need help. A lot of the larger organisations have 5 or 6 trainers
working out of one centre so you may end up being trained by 3 or 4 different trainers which often results in the trainee getting confused.
Experienced trainer
I am highly qualified with 25 years experience in driver and instructor training. A lot of the larger organisations use inexperienced instructors to deliver the
training. Many of whom have only just qualified themselves.
Flexible training
I appreciate that when embarking on a totally new career where you have to have thorough training and take exams then training has to be flexible. Therefore
every training programme is designed around your needs. Each session will be booked around you and your home and work commitments
An initial meeting
If you are interested, I will meet you to discuss in detail about being a driving instructor. I will talk about the legal requirements and the training. It is not a
sales presentation but an opportunity for you to ask as many questions as you wish. There is no contract to sign and I am not looking for any commitment.
Help and support all the way
Help and advice is always available.
Training locations
Depending on the duration of the training, will depend upon where the training will be carried out. If you only require 2 hours then the training is usually
carried out either in the York or Leeds area. However if you require half a day or a full day then we can meet you at a mutually convenient place. If you are from
outside the Yorkshire area and need hotel accommodation, then this can be arranged at an extra cost.
Career advice
I will you give you advice on starting up your own driving school, sales, marketing and customer care. If you are not wanting to run your own driving school
there are other options such as operating a franchise. Again I will give advice in what to look for in a franchise. As in anything there are always pros and cons.
Please note
I charge for training only. Examination fees are extra. Use of the car for the ADI part 2 and 3 practical tests are subject to conditions.
