Teenager 16 and 17 year old
Thank you for your interest in Tom’s Driving School. Our family-owned and operated school has been serving the community for over 65 years and has trained thousands of new drivers. 

We believe that experience is the best teacher. Our staff of state-certified and licensed driving instructors has the knowledge and experience to help your teen to develop knowledge and awareness of safe driving techniques and rules of the road.

Tom’s Driving School provides an array of options to help you choose the best program to fit your student’s needs. Regardless of which option you may choose, our ultimate goal is to help and guide your teen into becoming a safe and confident driver.

OPTION #1: Full Drivers Education Program

Our Full Driver Education Program consists of 30 hours of classroom training and 8 hours of private behind-the-wheel instruction. During classroom hours, the student will gain an in-depth understanding of the rules of the road, safe driving techniques and everything in between. Our staff of classroom teachers are licensed and certified by the State of Connecticut and have a vast amount of knowledge and experience to share. Classes are held online. The hours of on-the-road instruction are then scheduled by the student or parent based on the student’s availability. With this program, the student may apply for his/her license four months from his/her permit date and may also be recognized for an insurance discount.

OPTION #2: 6/8 Driver Mini Program
For those students who are unable to enroll in the Full Course, Tom’s now offers the 6/8 Program. With this option, students will attend the mandatory Eight-Hour Driving Safety Course and receive six hours of private behind-the-wheel instruction with one of our highly trained and state-certified instructors. This course is perfect for those students who have busy after school schedules. With this option, the student must wait six months from the date of his/her permit before applying for a license.
