Car driving instructors: lesson blocks and pick-up points
How car driving instructors can book lesson blocks and pick-up points online: one service per pick-up area, lesson lengths, blocks from your list and notes.
5 min read
Driving lessons start where the learner is: home, school, work. Pick-ups scattered across town eat into your day, and learners who book lesson by lesson lose momentum. With Book, you create lesson services per pick-up area, book blocks of lessons from your list, and learners get every lesson in their calendar.
Lesson services per area
On Book, each service has a name, a price and an optional description, all shown on your public page. Each slot belongs to one service, sits within one day and has its own capacity.
| Service | Example slot | Places | Example price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Driving lesson – North pick-up | 1 h | 1 | €45 |
| Driving lesson – South pick-up | 1 h | 1 | €45 |
| Double lesson | 2 h | 1 | €85 |
| First lesson assessment | 1 h | 1 | €40 |
Durations and prices are examples: set your own.
Areas on set days
Slots repeat weekly on the weekdays you choose until an end date. Open each pick-up area on set days or times, and list the streets, schools or postcodes covered in the description. You create every slot, so leave gaps for driving between pick-ups; they never appear on your page.
Blocks of lessons
After the first lesson, agree a rhythm and book a block yourself from your bookings list, such as ten lessons at the same time each week. First and last name are enough; with their email, the learner gets a confirmation with a calendar file for each lesson. Book doesn't send reminders.
The pick-up address
The booking form takes first name, last name, email and phone, plus an optional note that reaches you in the new booking email. Ask for the exact pick-up address and, if it changes, to tell you in advance.
Keeping slots for new learners
Open a few public first-lesson slots each week and keep the rest for learners in blocks. See the guide on test day and mock test bookings for the final weeks.
Changes
Learners can't move or cancel online: they contact you, and you move the lesson from your list. Rescheduling works across services, so a lesson can move from one pick-up area to another. State your notice policy in the description.
What Book doesn't do
Book doesn't plan routes, take payments, sell lesson packs or send reminders. One booking page per business, no staff field: in a driving school, create services per instructor. Book costs €5/month, everything included: unlimited services and bookings, no commission, no contract.
