What is Private Driving Lessons?
"Private Lessons" are what we call the lessons that teach you to drive (unlike Behind the Wheel lessons which are mainly for testing and licensing). At Colonial Driving School we have a proprietary program to teach you to drive quickly and painlessly. Many of our students can go from no experience to being ready for a license in 5 lessons.
Who can take the course?
If you have a learner’s permit or a driver’s license (from anywhere), you can take the course. The lessons are customizable, which means we can help you with whatever you want to learn. Are you good on main roads but afraid of the highway? No problem! Are you hopeless at parking? You will be teaching your friends how to park after learning it here.
I have special needs
At Colonial Driving School we have a long history of helping people learn who have failed before, and who never thought they would be able to drive independently. Anxiety, ADD, accident-related PTSD, autism/asberger’s, physical disabilities, cognitive impairments, lack of english language skills - we have successfully assisted students with all these conditions and they are safely driving today. Do not underestimate yourself! If you are capable of learning to drive, we can teach you. Special rates apply for Special Needs Private Lessons. Call the office to discuss your options.
