How it works
Three steps, from your family's details to the Texas requirements.
Tell us your state and your family
Five questions. Your state, your teen's age, parent-taught or online, and your timeline.
See the exact requirements
Course hours, behind-the-wheel, supervised and night hours, and every form the state wants — dated and sourced.
Take it to a TDLR-approved course
You get the checklist plus TDLR's own approved-provider list, so you can confirm any course's license number yourself.
What parents are trying to solve
We're new, so we won't invent testimonials. These are the three questions families ask most.
“Two official-looking pages disagree on Texas classroom hours. Which number is current?”
“Do the hours my teen drives with me count, and does anyone have to sign for them?”
“Which online course is actually TDLR-approved, and where is that license number?”
The state gives you hours. We help you with the rest.
Every requirement on this site is sourced from the state regulator. What we add is the part no DMV page covers: the promises you and your teen make before the first drive.
"Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and he will establish your plans."Proverbs 16:3
The First Drive Covenant
A one-page agreement between you and your teen — what they promise, what you promise, signed by both, plus a prayer for the first time they pull out of the driveway. Print it, sign it, put it on the fridge.

Where we operate
We show our work, or we don't say it.
Sourced, not scraped
Every figure comes from the state regulator's own material, with the source link shown next to it. Where sources disagree, we say so instead of picking one.
Dated, so you can check us
Each page shows when it was last reviewed, who reviewed it, and when the next review is due. Texas requirements were verified August 2, 2026.
Conflicts explained, not hidden
When two official sources give different numbers, we show both, tell you which one controls today, and link the rule that settles it.
