Our parent and instructor taught drivers ed courses are both great options for Texas teens getting their license, but what exactly is the difference between parent taught and instructor taught drivers ed? It comes down to who is going to be with you during the behind-the-wheel requirements. With both courses you’ll be able to complete the classroom phase online with Aceable. For our parent taught course, you will complete the 44 behind-the-wheel hours with a parent or legal guardian. For our instructor taught course, you can take your Certificate of Completion to a local driving school and practice with a professional instructor. If you want some more information check out our blog post in which we break down the difference even more.
