For driving instructors

Teach someone who is already looking after somebody else

We fund lessons for neighbourhood heroes. We need approved instructors to teach them, and we publish the workbooks a lot of instructors already use.

Work with us

How it works, start to finish.

01

We match

We find a learner near you who gives their own time to look after somebody else.

02

You teach

Your normal lessons, your normal way of working.

03

We pay

Lessons are paid for up front, at your rate.

What we can and cannot promise

We are a small not-for-profit. We cannot promise a steady stream of pupils, and we will not ask you to teach for free. If we fund a learner, the lesson is paid.

Why we publish them

The books fund the lessons. An instructor buying a workbook is paying for someone's driving lesson.
