Beginner Driver

This package is designed for students who have little or no driving experience. Start with lessons in our simulator to learn the basics and build your confidence and then after your fourth simulator lesson, you can schedule and start taking lessons in the car if you are ready and have your valid permit. If you need more lessons, you can always add more of either type. This package is ideal if you want to start practicing while you wait on your permit appointment or if you have your permit but want to start slowly.

Behind-the-Wheel Driving Lessons

Save by purchasing a package of lessons or pay as you go. Either way, you will receive quality instruction in a one-hour private driving lesson customized to your skills and experience. All driving lessons start and end at our location. Students who need a ride typically use Uber, Lyft, or other ride service.

Lesson packages complement parent-taught teen driver education only. All driving lessons are taught by highly trained and licensed instructors and provide skills needed for safe driving.

Practice in a safe environment before getting behind-the-wheel or refine your skills in different environments with simulator lessons.

A valid Texas permit is required to take behind-the-wheel lessons but not simulator lessons.

Simulator Lessons

Lessons guide the new driver from the very beginning, from how to drive a car, how to use the simulator in advanced driving situations, and how to avoid hazards and minimize risk. Although not exactly like driving an actual car, this system is excellent for building good habits and confidence that transfer well with the in-car lessons. The simulator reacts in real-time to the actions taken by students, and the computerized instructor, along with access to a human instructor, repeats lessons until students are proficient with driving skills.
