Seek recommendations from your friends, neighbors, child&#8217;s friends&#8217; parents and people you know at the local community center the schools they recommend.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li><strong> Visit a Few Driving Schools.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Request that you sit in the classrooms and observe the day. Check out the curriculum and if the classrooms are orderly and clean. Does each student have a desk?<\/p>\n<ol start=\"3\">\n<li><strong> Choose a School that has a Comprehensive, Paced Learning Process. <\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>An ideal course should be part classroom education and part behind-the-wheel training. And, since no teen driver is the same, some teens may require a little extra practice. Ensure the school accommodates these types of needs.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"4\">\n<li><strong> Find a School that Involves the Parents in the Driving Practice. <\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>It takes many hours of learning to drive at an adequate level of mastery. Ideally, the school should include a partnership between the parents\/adults and the school so the parents can supervise the practice and reinforce the training. Also important is two-way communication. Students and parents should let the school know about driving progress made and challenges and the school should provide parents and students with areas requiring deliberate practice.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"5\">\n<li><strong> Check behind-the-wheel vs. classroom sessions.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>The best course will integrate behind-the-wheel and classroom training. Classroom training should incorporate a structured lesson plan, including the fundamentals of defensive driving and risk prevention practices.<\/p>\n<p>The behind-the-wheel sessions should correlate with the classroom&#8217;s lesson plan to demonstrate and reinforce classroom concepts. Additionally:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Practice sessions should support behind-the-wheel and classroom sessions.<\/li>\n<li>Sessions should provide beginners with two in-car lessons every week.<\/li>\n<li>Schools should provide parents with interactive educational tools so they can provide their teen drivers a minimum of 50 hours of supplemental, supervised driving experience.<\/li>\n<li>Driving atmospheres should include city traffic, residential streets, rural roads, limited-access freeways and highways.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Your local Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) can provide you with state regulation information for driving schools, however, they can&#8217;t recommend an actual driving school. Each state&#8217;s standards vary and a state license doesn&#8217;t necessarily guarantee a driving school is of high-quality. Some AAA clubs might be able to suggest a school or offer their own driving instruction.
