Driving instructor training designed just for you
DVSA ORDIT Trainer
Hello, I’m Howard Floyd, founder of How-2-Drive the independent driving school based in Norwich. You can find me listed as a driving instructor trainer on the DVSA’s Official Register of Driving Instructor Trainers (ORDIT).
Working as an Approved Driving Instructor (ADI) is a very rewarding career. Not only will you be your own boss who decides when or how often you work, but you’ll also get a great amount of job satisfaction. Imagine how fulfilling it is to take a pupil all the way from their first driving lesson through to passing their driving test.
Over the past 16 years, I have helped many people just like you to realise their dream of becoming a fully qualified ADI. Now’s your chance to let me do the same for you!
By training to become a driving instructor with me, this is what you can expect:
Local one-to-one ADI training services
You’ll get 40 hours of one-to-one in-car driving instructor training PLUS full, unlimited access to our DIT Kit online ADI training course so you can fully prepare before you get in-car with your instructor trainer.
All in-person training is delivered locally in Norwich.
Online study materials included
Included in your ADI training course are many hours of online study materials. You’ll get full access to DIT KIT – our online driving instructor training course, which covers all the SKILLS and SUBJECTS lessons using a mix of video tutorials and interactive quizzes. You’ll complete these online classes before you get into the car with your trainer to put into practice what you’ve learned.
Grade A / ORDIT trainer
Howard, our ADI trainer, is a DVSA-accredited ORDIT Trainer, so he comes highly recommended by the people who set the ADI tests. He is also a Grade A ADI, so you’ll be in good hands! You can find Howard listed on the DVSA’s Official Register of Driving Instructor Trainers (ORDIT) where he achieved the highest possible score of 51/51 on his latest standards check.
What’s included in your driving instructor training course?
- 40 hours of one-to-one in-car training with your ORDIT trainer.
- DIT Kit – our online driving instructor course. You’ll get an additional 40 hours of guided study to teach you the core concepts before you get out in-car.
- All three parts of the ADI qualification exams are covered.
ADI course modules
Your driving instructor training course consists of three parts:
- Part 1: Theory & Hazard Perception (2 hours)
- Part 2: Driving Ability (8 hours)
- Part 3: Instructional Ability (40 hours in-car training PLUS another 40 hours of guided training via our online driving instructor course)

Here are six great reasons to do your driving instructor training with us:
- 40 hours in-car, one-to-one training — get 40 hours of in-car training with our qualified instructor trainers who you’ll find listed on the DVSA’s Official Register of Driving Instructor Trainers (ORDIT)

- Earn as you learn — start teaching for reward by applying for a trainee PDI licence. Gain valuable experience by teaching real learners in preparation for your Part 3 exam.
- Be your own boss — when you join our driving school franchise, you choose when you want to work. Work either full or part-time and we’ll fill your diary accordingly.

- Flexible training plans — fit your training around your current work and family commitments. All your in-person training will be delivered locally in Norwich.
We’ll walk you through each part step by step. Each step will build upon your existing knowledge and prepare you to pass your ADI exams. We’ll explain everything to you and show you how to apply each new skill. You’ll then be given time to practice and develop your instructional techniques in preparation for your tests.
I am now a driving instructor! I’ve just passed my final exam with Howard and How-2-Drive. I can’t believe I have actually done it!
This is all possible thanks to Howard and his excellent training style. When I found things difficult, he just took a different approach and made it all sound so simple.
Thanks to Howard’s calm approach and endless patience, not to mention his training course — I managed to pass all three parts first time!

Flexible training plans
You can fit your training around your current work or family commitments.
Our ADI training course takes around 3 to 6 months to complete, depending on how much time you have spare each week to train.
After this point, you can choose to gain paid experience as a PDI instructor before you go on to take your final ADI exam.
Flexible payment plans
To keep our ADI training course fees within your reach, we are happy to offer flexible payment options.
You may either:
- Buy now – pay for all three parts of the course upfront for just £2600. This way, you’ll save £520 compared to the monthly plan.
- Pay monthly – spread the cost of your training with our monthly payment plan for £260 per month over 12 months. Total amount payable: £3,120.
- Pay-as-you-go and additional training is £75 per hour when you purchase either all three of our online courses* or you have completed our 40-hour in-person training course. For new customers, the rate is £100 per hour.
*Our online courses can be purchased separately: Part 1 is £50, Part 2 is £100 and Part 3 is £350, for a total investment of £500.
Our approach to driving instructor training works!
I passed all 3 ADI tests first time and qualified as an ADI after just four months of training!
Howard supported me through every stage, supplying me with the knowledge and resources I needed to succeed!
The process to become an ADI can seem daunting. You will need to be dedicated to succeed. Determination and hard work along with Howard’s teaching technique will make the process a lot simpler and enjoyable.
Six months on from starting the training, I have the great opportunity to work under the How 2 Drive colours, with my diary being filled with pupils and the flexibility of working when and where I wish.

Earn as you learn with the PDI trainee licence
You can choose to fast-track your training by applying for a trainee licence so you can earn while you learn. The trainee licence is issued by the DVSA and grants you the legal status of a Potential Driving Instructor (PDI). You will then be able to join our school of motoring and get paid to teach our pupils.
As a PDI, you will be able to work either full or part-time during this 6 month period, during which time we will continue to train and support you. This is a great way to gain valuable work experience whilst you prepare for your final Part 3 ADI exam.

Want to join our franchise?
Whether you have your PDI trainee licence or you’re a fully qualified ADI, you’ll have the chance to join our driving academy.
Take a look at our Driving School Franchise opportunities to learn more.
Have questions about our ADI training?
Yes – everything needed to support your learning is included. You’ll get 40 hours of one-to-one, in-car training – plus online access to our DIT Kit virtual study materials, which provide another 40 hours of tuition.
No. Sorry, but ADI qualifying test fees will be payable to the DVSA when you book your tests. It was almost too good to be true!
Yes! If you buy our course now for £2600 you’ll save £520 off the monthly payment plan investment of £3120.
It usually takes between three and six months to qualify as a driving instructor in the UK. Most of our students take one four-hour class every week so will typically complete the 40 hours of in-car training in around 3 to 4 months.
However, once you’ve passed your Part 2 test, you can start earning whilst you continue to learn. The PDI trainee licence gives you six months to gain important teaching experience before you take your final Part 3 exam to become an approved driving instructor.
This is subject to availability because Howard is the only driving instructor trainer at How-2-Drive. We think it’s important to make sure you’re trained by the very best ORDIT trainer rather than a stand-in.
Give us a call so we can discuss your availability and agree a plan to suit you.

Couldn’t be happier with the training I received from Howard.
From day one, even before meeting, Howard was friendly, understanding (having to arrange my training around a job and childcare) and professional! He has supported me every step of the way and provided me with top class training! I really couldn’t fault a single thing!
Lessons with Howard were fun, informative and tailored to my learning needs! Really can’t thank Howard enough for his support and I am now super excited to have passed my final test and to be joining his team in the new year!
