Texas Parent-Taught Drivers Ed

We Make It Easy to Teach Your Teen to Drive

Do you have a teen who is ready to get their license? Learning to drive is a big step towards independence and adulthood, but it can also be a little bit nerve-wracking! We take the worry out of teaching your teen to drive by giving you both all of the information and guidance you’ll need to ensure your new driver is ready for the road.

Our course is state-approved by the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) and the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR). The parent-taught driver education course teaches the “classroom” portion of driver education, but instead of going to a classroom, all your teen has to do is go online. The course curriculum also prepares you and your teen to successfully complete the behind-the-wheel driving requirements.

Who is Parent-Taught Drivers Ed for?

• Teens who are between the ages of 14 and 17. This age group is required to take some sort of driver education course in order to get a driver's license. If your teen is 18 or older, they can take our 6-hour adult driver education course.
• Parents who want to play a more hands-on role in ensuring their kids are excellent drivers.
• Parents and teens who prefer the convenience and flexibility of an online course.

We Bring Driver Education to You

With our parent-taught online course you’ll get:

• 24/7 online access on any device
• A comprehensive behind-the-wheel training guide
• Your Certificate of Completion emailed for free
• Access to the DPS permit test is included in the course – skip a trip to the DPS!
• Friendly customer service is available 7 days a week

We Make Learning to Drive Convenient

Our parent-taught course is perfect for busy families. There’s no fighting traffic just to go sit in a boring classroom. Your teen can take the online course from anywhere using their phone, laptop, or tablet. Also, our bookmarking feature allows students to pick up where they left off and switch between devices.

When it's time to get behind the wheel to practice driving, our course gives you the freedom and flexibility to do your driving practice when it works for your schedule.

We Make Your Teen a Defensive Driver for Life

Anxious about your teen getting behind the wheel for the first time? They might be nervous too! We can help you prepare them for a lifetime of safe driving.

Our driver education course teaches critical defensive driving skills, so you can rest assured knowing that your teen will be ready to handle all the unexpected risks of the road. And once your teen has completed the course, they can continue with our defensive driving course. Having your teen take our defensive driving course may even help you save on car insurance!

We Take the Stress Out of Learning to Drive

Our course is specifically designed to help your teen learn. Each lesson includes interactive elements that keep our students engaged and focused. We even offer 3-D animated scenarios to simulate real-life situations your teen might encounter while driving.

We’ve also designed the course with parents in mind. With checklists and special sections of the course just for parents, you'll know exactly what you need to teach when you take your teen out for driving practice.

We understand that teaching your teen to drive can feel a little overwhelming. You may be wondering: What do I do first? or How will I know when my teen is ready to get their license?

Our course walks you through every step of the process and helps you track your teen's hours and progress. We help your family meet all the state's driver education requirements in a simple, easy-to-understand way.

Best of all, our program lets your teen learn from someone they know and trust: YOU!

We put you in the driver’s seat (or really the passenger’s seat), so you can monitor your teen's progress and safety at every turn.
