Teen Drivers ED & Summer Special
Teenage Drivers Education Course (Teen ED)
Ideal Driving School offers the Teenage Driver’s Education Course to help teenagers become responsible drivers. We offer hands-on courses to educate teenage drivers about road safety and responsibility properly. Our interactive course gives students the proper driver’s education, which consists of both classroom and driving time. Our licensed instructors (both in-class & in-car) are equipped with the appropriate knowledge, competencies, and special training vehicles to help teenagers understand the value and importance of road safety and traffic awareness.
Our TEEN ED courses are in two parts i.e., Classroom and Behind-the-Wheel Instruction.
CLASSROOM: Teens must complete 24 hours (a total of 12 days, Monday to Saturday, every day) for two weeks. Two hours a day after school, from 5 pm to 7 pm, in the classroom. If any student misses a class, he/she will have to make up for that by coming on a weekend. Books & stationery are at school. During the classroom portion, the teen will sit for the Permit exam and will receive the permit certificate. Parents will arrange an appointment with DPS and will take the teen to get his/her permit. We suggest that parents make an appointment with DPS as soon as they enroll their teens with us.
BEHIND-THE-WHEEL INSTRUCTION: Once they get their permit, teens must complete 14 hours (7 hours driving & 7 hours observation) of behind-the-wheel instruction. In other words, they take 7 lessons, 2 hours a day (1 hour driving & 1 hour observation). It’s our car, our gas & our instructor. Teens get 60 days to complete their 7 driving lessons. They schedule the driving lessons through a third-party web-based app at their own time and date. Driving slots are available as we are open 7 days a week. A DE-964 certificate is issued at the end of the course.
Our Cars: We have several cars dedicated only to the training purposes of the students. These are specially designed with added gears keeping in mind the safety and easy learning for the students. These vehicles have an extra pair of rear-view mirrors, gas, and brake paddles. This means that the vehicle control remains with the instructor.
Our Instructors: All our instructors are TDLR certified, mature, reliable, cool, and professionally experienced. They have excellent teaching, driving, and communication skills with sound technical knowledge. They teach students with patience and great care.
We offer the Teen Drivers Ed Course throughout the year. A calendar is available under the tab Teen Ed Calendar. Register your teen online to confirm a spot. You can call us at 214-884-5350 or 214-884-5288.

Registrations start in March. We offer different times for Special Summer Classes for Teens! A calendar is available under the tab Teen Ed Calendar.
We at Ideal Driving School grasp the importance of responsive and competent driver’s education. We are more than ready and prepared to take on the task of coaching and training teenagers to become responsible drivers. We firmly believe that risks, accidents, and dangers can be lessened or avoided altogether if future drivers comprehend the importance of road safety and traffic rules.
Teens who need to take only the 14 hours behind-the-wheel portion can call the office for further information.
