Description:

Classroom & BTW

THIS IS A LEGAL PROCESS FOR TEENS (UNDER 18 YRS OLD) TO OBTAIN A DRIVER’S LICENSE. DO NOT SIGN UP UNLESS YOU ARE COMMITTED TO THIS PROGRAM. IF YOU ARE COMMITTED TO SPORTS, JOB, TRIPS, OR ANY ACTIVITIES THAT WILL PREVENT YOU FROM COMMITTING TO THE DATES AND TIMES OF THE PROGRAM, DO NOT SIGN UP. FROM THE FIRST CLASSROOM TO THE LAST BEHIND THE WHEEL SESSION, THE PROGRAM WILL NORMALLY COMPLETE IN 8-10 WEEKS. THE BEHIND THE WHEEL(BTW) INSTRUCTION SHALL BEGIN ANYTIME AFTER THE 3RD WEEK OF CLASSSROOM INSTRUCTION. THE IDEAL TEEN STUDENT SHOULD HAVE 3-7 HOURS OF DRIVING BEFORE THE FIRST BTW LESSON. IDEALLY, THEIR PEDAL TOUCHES SHOULD BE VERY DELICATE. IT IS ESSENTIAL TO ALL ASPECTS OF VEHICLE CONTROL.  WE WILL WORK HARD ON IT DURING THE FIRST LESSON, HOWEVER, PLEASE WORK WITH THEM ON THIS BEFORE AND AFTER THE FIRST BTW LESSON TO IMPROVE THEIR OVERALL PROGRESS. IT IS THE MOST IMPORTANT ASPECT TO SUCCESSFULLY CONTROL THE CAR IN PROGRESSIVELY HARDER BTW LESSONS.  THE STUDENTS WHO STUGGLE THE MOST AND A FEW WHO ARE NOT ABLE TO PASS BTW, DO NOT HAVE THE DELICATE TOUCH ON THEIR PEDALS. THE GOAL IS FOR THEM TO BECOME ROAD SAFE.
