building solid parent driving instructors

​Most people associate driver's education as this turning point in a teenagers life.  The truth is, its a turning point in their parents lives as well as becoming a parent instructor comes with both challenges and rewards. 

Not all of us are natural educators.  Knowing how to do something doesn't necessarily mean you know how to teach someone what you know.  However your teen will spend 50-100 hours in the car with you so its important that you are properly trained on how to teach them.  At EDI we understand your hesitation, concern and anxiety during this phase and we are here to help.  

Our parent session is the final half of the last classroom session.  During this time we explain what the state requires of you but more importantly what EDI needs from you to help us build the safest teen drivers.  I have also included a few tips below to help prepare you for the next year of your new role as a "Parent Instructor".  

Here is an example of a good "first driving lesson with parents".  Starting in a parking lot with  few cars and her father is very encouraging. This is where ALL students should start regardless of experience.

EDI Parking Stations

Because most students say "parking" is their biggest concern for their road test, we found it very important to give them a space to build these skills.  We lease this parking lot so students can practice anytime, day or night.  Please take advantage of this.   Berean Community Church - 3157 Kenosha Dr NW, Rochester, MN 55901

If you'd like to park at home or somewhere else, parallel parking cones are 25' apart and 7' wide.
