Want To Be Your Own Boss?

Work/Life Balance

For most people, the ability to choose when and how much we work is very important. It will allow us to spend more time with our families and to be there when we are needed most.

As with any job,  the more you work the more you will earn but unlike most jobs, as a driving instructor you really do have the choice of when you work and for how long you work.

It means you can be there for the evening meals, attend your children’s school plays, take or pickup the children from school and in general be there for your partner and family when needed.

Being a driving instructor really is flexible and allows you to take control of your life.

Complete Job Satisfaction

Being a driving instructor is truly a rewarding career , now more than ever people from all ages and walks of life need to be able to drive, whether it’s the fact that having a driving licence will help them get a new job as most candidates are now asked if they have a driving licence, or perhaps it could be that they want the more freedom and don’t want to rely on family, friends or London transport, the fact is people choose to learn to drive for all types of reasons.

No matter what the reason, people choose to learn to drive every day, so if you would like to have the satisfaction of helping someone achieve their goal of getting a driving licence, read on.

You get more Training Hours for your money.

You will receive 40 hours of one to one in-car training with your dedicated instructor trainer plus ongoing support from our customer service team. In most cases, 40 hours of one to one training is more than the average training provider will give you, but we want to make sure you succeed and not just for you to qualify but also to become a great teacher as well.

There is also the opportunity to earn while you learn with our funded trainee licence, so you don’t need to delay getting your new career underway. Please ask our customer service team for more details on the trainee licence scheme.

With our driving school, you will find that our support doesn’t stop once you have qualified as a driving instructor. Our support team will help you become established in your local area and work with you every step of the way to develop your career as a fully qualified driving instructor.

Business Development

One of the biggest gripes driving instructors have is the lack of business support and training they receive from their training provider. This can leave them scratching their heads when it comes to running their business and doing things like accounting.

We provide all our trainees with one to one business training based at our Croydon offices once you have completed your required 40 hours of Part 3 training.

We Guarantee you a training position with our driving school once qualified. 

There are loads of benefits with joining DirectDrive Driving School, our local reputation is second to none. As well as being your own boss and having a more active role in the local community, you can choose the working hours that suit your lifestyle and needs. You can plan your weekly lessons around other commitments, such as spending time with your family.

On average most instructors take 6 – 9 months to fully qualify but this can be a lot less as we have seen many times before but of course, this will depend on your availability and the amount of work you put into the programme. You will be earning once  you’ve passed the 2nd exam which in-turn prepares you for the third exam.

Fast Track Training Courses

We may be able to fast track your training down to just a few weeks if required. This means you can be on the road and earning as quickly as possible.

Please ask our customer support team to see if this option could benefit you.
