✔️ Hybrid package available – Bundle the online course with our state-required behind-the-wheel training to check off everything your teen needs—all in one place.

Begin your Behind-the-Wheel Instruction with Your Designated Instructor
Before beginning a Parent Taught Driving Course, the Texas Department of Licensing & Regulation (TDLR), requires that the student’s “Designated Parent-Instructor” first complete the Parent-Taught Driver Education Instructor Designation Services Request and purchase the Parent Taught Driver Education (PTDE) Program Guide. TDLR charges a separate fee, for the PTDE Program Guide, that is not included in our course fee.
