Any Driving Instructors on here
Discussion
Thinking of becoming a driving instructor, I'm pretty much semi-retired and don't need to pay a mortgage etc so I don't need a set regular income .
I'm helping to teach my son to drive at the moment, its something I have dabbled in as when I was in the forces I would teach people to drive unfamiliar vehicles and there is a real shortage of driving instructors in my area, we pay £38 per lesson. With the local school getting outstanding Ofsteds and expanding its 6th form it looks like there might be a fair bit of work going forward.
When you google you see plenty of companies that do driving instructor courses but has anyone on here gone that route and can offer any advice?

If however it's more of a hobby and you're not reliant on the income, then clearly the risks are much lower.
Good luck!
Yes its very much a "hobby" as said in the first post, something I can do for the next 5 years, the business side I'm less worried about but the training is clearly the minefield which was my first thoughtGood luck!
I already hold an LGV C+E, PCV + E as well as car and motorcycle, I was also trained for blue light jobs, but I have no interest in either the haulage or passenger transport industry anymore , its just too much of a grind.
