About This Role:

We are seeking a passionate and responsible Driving & Classroom Instructor to join our growing team. This unique position combines classroom teaching and behind-the-wheel instruction to give students a comprehensive, safe, and engaging driver education experience. You’ll play a vital role in both in-person classroom education and in-car training — helping students build confidence, learn the rules of the road, and practice real-world driving.

• Keep classroom clean and organized (wipe down surfaces, take out trash, etc.)

Behind-the-Wheel Instruction

• Conduct safe, one-on-one in-car driving lessons using a company-provided Coastline vehicle
• Teach practical driving skills and reinforce classroom concepts on the road
• Monitor and document student progress and provide clear, constructive feedback
• Take control of the vehicle in emergency situations, if needed

Other Responsibilities

• Maintain regular communication with your supervisor and support team
• Attend required team meetings and training sessions
• Ensure professionalism in all interactions with students, families, and staff

Training & Certification

Don’t worry — we’ll help you get certified! Our paid training program

includes:

• 30 hours of instructor training (mix of online modules and in-car practice)
• 12 hours of behind-the-wheel training with a Certified Trainer
• Support to obtain your state-required instructor license

What You Bring

• A genuine passion for teaching and helping others succeed
• Strong verbal communication and presentation skills
• Patience, calmness, and professionalism with students of all ages and backgrounds
• Basic automotive knowledge and a strong sense of safety
• Intermediate computer skills (Google Suite proficiency preferred)

Required Credentials

• Valid Texas State Driver’s License
• At least 10 years of legal driving experience
• High School Diploma or GED
• Willingness and eligibility to become a licensed driving instructor
• Ability to pass a background check, drug screen, and reference check
