The Job – A Career with Real Opportunities
Becoming a driving instructor offers the opportunity to enjoy a rewarding career, flexible working hours and greater independence.
Across Great Britain, tens of thousands of Approved Driving Instructors (ADIs) provide professional driving tuition. With new learners entering the market every year and existing instructors retiring, there is an ongoing demand for skilled driving instructors.
Learners typically require around 45 hours of professional driving tuition, although individual requirements vary.
With driving lessons commonly costing around £40–£50 per hour, a learner completing 45 hours at £45 per hour would spend approximately £2,025 on professional tuition.
For qualified driving instructors, this represents an opportunity to build a business, manage their own working hours and enjoy a career helping others achieve their independence.
