Why is Drivers Education Important?
It is crucial that new drivers have a good theoretical base of knowledge to draw on. Not all students learn at the same pace. We let students that can move through the classroom quickly do so. Some of those can complete their 30 hours and retain the material in a couple weeks. With our flexible schedule students that are motivated to finish quickly may be able to finish in 2 to 3 weeks WITHOUT tying up 4 Saturdays in a row! However some students cannot learn the material by “speeding” them through the classroom. If your student requires more time they can move at the pace that best suits their learning style. Your child is much more valuable to us than that. That is why we continue to strive to offer a more flexible classroom schedule. We work with students to make sure they learn and retain this knowledge. (click here to see our “Philosophy on Teen Drivers Education”)
30 Hours Classroom:
Orientations every 10 days. With our flexible classroom times you choose when you come to class. Students that can move through the classroom quickly do so, those that need more time can take their time. The cost is the same! We want your child to learn all they can about driving to be safe. While making it as easy on your schedule as possible. Call us and we can explain how we can accommodate your busy student’s schedule without tying up all their Saturdays, (865) 691-1813. The most flexible program in the area. All students move at their own pace. Special needs students as well as young adults are welcome.
Students may choose to wait to start the program after they have reached the age of 15. Remember you will be required to hold your permit for 180 days. Please factor this in as you plan, if you are targeting a specific date to get your license.
6 Hours Private Driving:
Students are driven after the classroom is completed, in the same order that they finish classes. Students are driven for 3 sessions 2-Hour each sessions, and the State Skills (Road) Test can be given on the last lesson. Remember you must hold you permit for 180 day and be 16 to apply for your license after testing with us. Test scores will be valid for 90 days from the date the test is administered. Free pick-up and return for driving lessons*.
