What sort of people become driving instructors?

People who like the idea of being their own boss and having control over their income and working hours.
People who want a career, not just a job.
People who don’t want to be tied to a desk all day long.
People with a natural desire to help others – It’s extremely rewarding meeting someone with absolutely no driving experience and then watching them grow in confidence and ability as you help them develop the skills that they need for a lifetime of safe driving.

GET THE WORK/LIFE BALANCE THAT YOU AND YOUR FAMILY DESERVE!
No previous experience is needed – It doesn’t matter what you’ve done before. Many driving instructors are women returning into work after bringing up the kids, people wanting a career change, or have maybe been made redundant.
