Why Street Wise?

We are one of the most known driving schools in Alberta! With thousands of students each year, there is plenty of opportunity to work. And since we service many locations, our instructors can chose to work in one area, or others as well for additional pay. Our instructors have full scheduling flexibility. If you only want to work 1-2 days a week, we're fine with that. On top of all that, we offer competitive wages!

About our program:

We are looking for instructors to help deliver the best Driver Education program we can offer, by inspiring our students to become safer drivers. You will be responsible for helping them develop the necessary skills to share the road safely with the rest of us.

This contract position is ideal for someone who is self-motivated and interested in a flexible schedule. You book the hours you want to work – with the realization that many of our students are in school so evening and weekend availability is a must!

A little about you:

- You stay calm under pressure! New drivers are stressed out. They will occasionally throw a wrench in the works and surprise you. Staying calm is key.
- You are positive! Constructive criticism and positive feedback are going to create a more positive learning experience, which means your student will be more likely to maintain those safe habits you are hoping to instill.
- You are patient! Everyone is different, and they come to us with a variety of backgrounds and skill levels. Some will get it right away,



and some will need a fair bit more work. Your patience and understanding are going to go a long way to helping them build confidence.

A little about the job:

- This is a contract position.
- You book your own hours.
- Your schedule is up to you, but this is a primarily evening/weekend heavy job. Summers are busiest.
- You will be responsible for providing top notch on the road instruction to students.

For non-qualified applicants: The candidate we are looking for will possess a clean criminal record, and drivers abstract. They will possess a valid Alberta Driving Instructor License - Minimum Class 5 Non-GDL held for 3 years. Must be fluent in English. Any other languages are a bonus!

Who makes a good instructor? Someone who is understanding and patient with teens, nervous people, and people with conditions such as ADHD and anxiety.

There is an in-depth written exam and driving exam to get your instructors license. So expect a lot of studying! Typical study time is a few months.

You will need a vehicle suitable for driver education. This can be almost any vehicle as long as it is in good mechanical and physical condition. We install a passenger brake and mirror at no cost to you.

If you meet all the above requirements, please submit your resume AND cover letter.

**Please note that while we appreciate all submissions, only those candidates being considered will be contacted.
