This is a bit tricky, but we wanted to clarify our policy regarding students who do not yet have a learner's permit. While we are able to conduct "Behind the Wheel" (BTW) lessons with students who do not have a permit, the subsequent practice is crucial.
After each BTW session, we strongly encourage parents or guardians to practice with their student for the following week, or until their next scheduled lesson. If a student does not have a learner's permit, they are legally unable to practice on their own. This lack of repetition can unfortunately lead to them losing much of what they learned during our lesson.
We highly recommend obtaining a learner's permit as early as possible to ensure consistent practice and maximize the effectiveness of our lessons.

This is a common and somewhat complex question. The State of Tennessee generally requires students to complete 30 hours of classroom instruction before beginning behind-the-wheel lessons, though there are some exceptions.
