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 13 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 online training course – DIT Kit so you can fully prepare before you get in-car with your trainer.
All in-car 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 via video tutorials and quizzes. You’ll complete these online classes before you get in the car with your trainer to practice what you’ve learned.

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!

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 with your trainee licence before you go on to take your final exam.

- Pay-as-you-go & Additional Training – is £60 per hour when you purchase all three of our three online courses* or you have completed either of our 40-hour training courses above. For non-How 2 Drive 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.
Frequently asked questions
No. Sorry, but ADI Qualifying Test Fees are payable to the DVSA when you book your tests. It was almost all too good to be true!
Yes! If you buy our course now for £2400 you’ll save £480 off the monthly payment plan investment of £2880.
Usually between 4 and 6 months. Most of our students take a 4 hour class each week and will complete the 40 hours of in-car, one-to-one training in around 3 to 4 months. Once you’ve passed the Part 2 test you can then start earning whilst you complete your studies on a Trainee Licence. The Trainee Licence gives you 6 months to gain teaching experience before you take the final Part 3 exam.
This is subject to availability as Howard is the only driving instructor trainer at How-2-Drive. No-one else will be asked to train you, so you’ll only be trained by the very best ORDIT trainer. 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!
