- +

Our 8-hour private driving program is the ideal foundation for any new driver. Across four personalized, 2-hour lessons with a state-certified Next Street instructor, you’ll gain the skills, confidence, and experience needed to drive safely and independently. 

With consistent practice between lessons, this package gives students the time and structure to develop and master every essential driving skill.

What You’ll Learn

AAcross the five driving lessons, students will cover:

  • Basic driving skills: accelerating, braking, steering
  • Traffic controls, signs, and right of way
  • Speed and space management
  • Parking Maneuvers 101: 3-point turns, pull-in parking
  • Parking Maneuvers 201: back-in parking, parallel parking, corrections
  • Multi-lane driving and intersection management
  • Highway training: entering, merging, lane discipline, safe exits
  • Defensive driving awareness and hazard anticipation
  • Final lesson: comprehensive review and pre-test preparation


Lesson 1 will focus on parking lot driving and quiet backroads to build basic control and confidence.

Lesson 2 will advance to main roads and introduce safe traffic navigation.

Lesson 3 focuses on multi-lane driving and navigating intersections.

Lesson 4 advances to highway driving, including merging, speed control, and safe exits.

Lesson 5 provides a comprehensive review, skill refinement, and test-readiness check.

Lessons progress at the student’s pace—faster if skills come quickly, and slower if more time is needed to ensure safety and confidence. 

Before You Book

Before booking your driving lesson, you’ll need:

  • A valid learner’s permit, driver’s license, or international license
  • Your physical permit—no pictures or copies
  • Glasses or contacts if your permit has a B restriction

Students with permits may take lessons before, during, or after their classroom course.

Know Before You Go

  • All lessons start and end at The Next Street—no home pickup/drop-off.
  • Lessons take place in The Next Street’s dual-controlled vehicles. We don’t conduct lessons in personal cars.
  • New lesson slots open every Thursday evening for the next 60 days. We don’t book out further than 60 days in advance. For the best availability, check the Student Portal on Thursday nights or join the Wait List.
  • Only one driving lesson per day is allowed.
  • All instruction is in English only.

All scheduling and progress tracking are managed online through your Student Portal.

Driving lessons are booked in 2-hour blocks. These private, one-on-one lessons are available 7 days a week from 8:00 AM to 9:00 PM at any Next Street location.

Connecticut requires new drivers to complete 40 hours of supervised driving practice before taking the license test. This 4-hour package counts toward that total, leaving 36 hours to complete independently.

To get the most value from your instruction, we recommend taking at least 2 weeks and practicing for 10 hours at home between lessons.

Once you have your learner’s permit, Connecticut requires a waiting period before you can take the Road Test:

  • Adults (18+): 90 days
  • Teens (16–17): 120 days (reduced from 180 days with this course)

Wait times are based on your permit issue date, not when you begin class.

Connecticut requires an electronic Driver Education Certificate (e-DEC) for all driver education programs.

We’ll issue your e-DEC once you have:

  • Completed all classes and driving lessons
  • Passed all quizzes
  • Signed all attendance forms

All requirements must be finished at least 5 days before your Road Test.

If you take your Road Test through The Next Street, we’ll automatically upload your e-DEC the night before your test date.

  • Single-lesson purchases: Refundable within 6 months, minus a 10% processing fee
  • Bundle purchases: Non-refundable once any service in the bundle has been started

Safety is at the center of everything we teach.

The Next Street’s state-certified instructors emphasize defensive driving, hazard awareness, and responsible decision-making. Whether in the classroom or behind the wheel, we create a calm, supportive environment at every turn.

Each lesson is conducted in a dual-controlled Next Street vehicle equipped with GPS tracking and video recording. Instructors can take control instantly, if needed.
