I looked into this a couple of years back, but decided no at the time, but, I may try again, as my job is no longer viable. Weekend nights with two kids errrr no!
Besides with the rise in folk doing bike courses as cars are too expensive.......

Yep busy busy busy:riding:

Re: 1st time as a trainee bike instructor

People are under the impression that you can just do it a few hrs a week, well up here they do, don't know down sarrf. The place I went to said it wasn't just for a few extra pennies at the weekend, like some people expect to do. Its damn hard work at times, all year, all weathers, and the pay isnt that good. BUT for someone like me, who is looking for a small income, to back up the other half and be a mum.....
TBH, its about time I got off my butt and went to see them again.

This blokes a one man band and just does it at the weekend, so perfect for me on my current work roster

The main schools are probably poorly paid, same as driving school instructors
