The Driving Teacher

Not a startup

We are a family-owned company that started as a driving school in the year 1927. That's almost 100 years ago! The Driving Teacher is our first full online training platform, and we are excited about being able to serve a wider international audience. With this reach we hope to save more lives by helping our clients in becoming better, safer drivers.

Frequently asked questions

Youโ€™ve got questions. We got answers.

What is your experience in online driver's training?

The company published its first e-book in 1995. It was published on CD-ROM for those of you who know what that is :D Since that we have published online e-books for moped, moped car, tractor, passenger car and motorcycle students. In the year 2017 we started to do online lessons that driving schools would sell to their students. Since then, our main business has been producing and selling these courses and e-books to driving schools. 

Once we even published a printed book for passenger car students. It was not a success :D So now we stick strictly in digital format.

Why did you choose to go full online?

 Two reasons: reach and quality. With online training we can reach more people and fulfill our goal to save more lives. Also, we can keep the quality constant as we have learned that the quality of an offline course can vary a lot depending on the teacher and their motivation level in the given day. 

Donโ€™t get us wrong, we still believe that an offline lesson with an experienced, well trained and motivated instructor is great way to learn, but again the reach is limited and tied to a location. 



What is your experience in motorcycling?

 Motorcycle is often not just a mean to get from A to B and people are enthusiastic about them. So are we ๐Ÿ˜Š

Sami has trained future motorcyclists and motorcycle trainers for 30+ years. He also used to be a professional road racing rider.

Tani has been riding from the age he could walk. He is an enthusiastic motorcycle traveler. His favorite trip was a 9-month solo motorcycle trip through South-America.
