Driver Education for Guam

betterdrivers@gmail.com - 14 years experience of Driver Education on Guam

Now you can take our class online or in the classroom. Or both. One price for unlimited access to any of our classes.

Guam DMV recognizes and approves our driver education course.

How our online driver education course works:

You can study online first, and then come into one of our offices to pay and take the test for certification, or you can register first, and then use our online material.

You can attend classroom sessions, or do the whole thing online, or you can do any combination of both.

Benefits of the online course delivery

PRICES

Class: $60 for unlimited classroom instruction (We will help you until you get a permit)

Driving:

$80/2 hours for private lessons for beginners or advanced defensive driving.

$60/2 hours for people who know how to drive. You must demonstrate the skill and knowledge to pass the driving test. This lesson prepares you for that.

So that means we can and do teach beginner drivers. But you can save a lot of money if you have family or friends teach you how to drive. (Just be sure you are not learning the teacher's bad habits!)
If you already know how to drive, we can get you up to speed for $60

V. Driving Help. Some of these articles are for beginners, some are about defensive driving and some are helpful for passing the test.


Parallel Park Video About 13 minutes. Filmed at DMV parallel park area. This is an actual driving lesson.

Parallel Park- with pictures! And how to fix your mistakes so you don't have to start over.
Parallel Park- Text-only version so you can print it and bring it with you when you practice.

Bored? This will keep you busy for a few minutes.
Parallel Park Game- Thanks, Charles!


How to Change Lanes For exp. drivers- a short description of the correct procedure. For beginners, a thorough explanation of how to learn this important skill.

Driving on Guam-- A Unique Place. If you're new here, please read.

VI. Study Helps- Plenty of useful handouts from our class.

Territory of Guam Driver Handbook (PDF, about 8MB) We typed the whole thing to make a smaller file size. There is no copyright, so it's OK. This book is developed by Guam Rev & Tax, Dept. of Motor Vehicles. Converted to PDF and hosted by Better Drivers Driving Education.

Survey of the Driver Handbook. Includes instructor's commentary, highlights on important facts and links to discussions. This is a valuable study aid.


Lanes, Lines, Signals and Signs. - Road markings, road signs and traffic lights are the questions most people get wrong. Even if you know what they mean, it is kind of tricky to figure out the question and the answer without seeing what the question is asking about. It's a good idea to memorize the facts contained in this handout.

Road Signs Presentation - Kind of like Power Point, not for printing.

Important Numbers. - On the test, there are number questions. If you know the number, you get it right. If you don't know it, you will guess and most likely get it wrong. It's not all common sense, so memorize the number facts.

Flash Cards - We use these as a game. The document is set up for 2-sided printing. You may want to just write the answers on the back of the questions by hand, or you can glue the answers to the questions. Figure it out; it's a good study aid.

VII. Other Stuff

I have other articles and sites that don't really fit anywhere.

Monster Doctor- My first book! For kids. Want your kids to read? Give them fun books.

AARP Driver Safety Program for retirees. We are not officially involved, but we proudly support this program to make our roads safer for aging drivers.
