Do driving instructors work weekends?
I am considering working as a driving instructor, but I love having free weekends to lounge around and do nothing. Do driving instructors have to work on the weekend?

Teaching people how to drive can be such a rewarding experience—as can lounging around. Unfortunately, if weekends are totally off-limits for you, you may not enjoy being a driving instructor. Driving instructors may have to work weekends and weekday evenings to accommodate the schedules of
high school students
. Even adults learning to drive may be very busy Monday through Friday going to their jobs and being involved in family activities during the week.
That being said, you could start your own driving school and maintain your own hours, but you’ll need to be licensed by the state DMV or a similar agency. And keep in mind that your limited business hours will likely not bring too many students around on a Tuesday morning during the school year.
