ADVANCED DRIVER TRAINING LESSONS

You've learned to drive. Now build the skills you want to master.

Learning to drive does not end when the Beginner Driver Education course does. Every driver has different strengths, goals and areas where a little more focused coaching can make a big difference. 

Drivewise Advanced Driver Training Lessons offer private, one-on-one instruction designed around specific skills. Some drivers use these sessions to prepare for their next road test. Others want to build stronger, more confident driving habits in areas like highway driving, city driving, or parking. 

Drivewise Advanced Driver Training Lessons are open to everyone, including Drivewise graduates and drivers simply looking for focused professional coaching.

Advanced Driver Training Lessons Includes:

  • 3 HOURS OF PRIVATE COACHING
  • TWO 90-MINUTE SESSIONS

Each package includes three hours of focused, private coaching covering a different set of skills. Drivers can choose a single program that matches their biggest priority, or combine more than one for a well-rounded approach.
