Busy Schedule? Tips On How To Fit Driving Lessons Into Your Hectic Schedule
We get it, teens these days have very hectic lives. Between school, studying, sports and part-time jobs, how do you fit driving school and driving lessons into that already jam-packed schedule? You definitely want to though, as you want to earn your driver's license and gain the freedom that comes with it. So, how do you fit driving lessons into your busy schedule? Coastline Academy shares some tips below!
Change Your Pick Up And Drop Off Points
Did you know Coastline Academy will pick you up and drop you off for your driving lessons? We can come to your house, school or work and can even drop you off at a convenient location within 5-10 minutes from your pickup address. By doing this, it can save you time in your day of having to get home from school before heading out to your lesson. A few minutes saved here and there adds up throughout the day!
Get Up Early
Yeah, we know you don't want to hear this one, but waking up early can help you get more things done throughout the day. Waking up early and working on some homework or getting your workout in would then save you time from having to do it after school or after work. By waking up early, you are giving yourself more hours in the day to get work done and get your driving lessons completed!
Take Advantage Of Weekends
Another one you probably don't want to hear, as the weekends are for you to relax and we agree. We all need that time to unwind and relax from a busy week. However, it might be the perfect time to fit in some driving lessons also, as usually more instructors and timeslots available on the weekends.
Coastline Academy Offers Flexibility
With your busy schedule, you need to find a driving school that offers you some flexibility. Coastline Academy can do that for you, as we have a variety of instructors for you to work with. With that variety comes a good mixture of times for you to schedule your lessons, so it can work around your work or school schedule.
Make Time For Breaks
You can't wear yourself down, so make sure to work time in for breaks into your daily routine. You need to be on top of your game, so overdoing it will not cut it. Make sure to take some time every day to relax, whether it be 15 minutes to talk with friends or 30 minutes getting lost in TikTok videos. Just make sure you take that time to wind down!
Don’t Forget To Eat And Stay Hydrated
One of the biggest things you can do is to make sure you are maintaining a good sleep schedule, even in your busy times. You need to maintain a good sleep schedule, as well as eating properly and staying hydrated. This will all help with your mental clarity, which is key when driving.
