Testimonials

Pom

Highly recommend Glen, he is amazing!, professional, funny, calm and made sure I was confident and ready for my test.

Clare

Nev is an awesome instructor. As an older learner I had given driving more than a few goes over the years, all which contributed to driving anxiety. With Nevs calm and fun lessons and encouragement (and with a little help from Timmy, Tommy, Andy, Mike, and the MIB) I was able to get over my anxiety and pass my test first go. I cannot recommend him enough and will honestly miss our fun drives.

Kim

Vince helped me immensely in passing my test first time would highly recommend.

Leni

We tried another driving school before North Shore Driving School but the fit was just not right. Vince was recommended to us by a friend and my daughter was very happy after just one lesson. Vince is calm and kind and made my daughter feel at ease during her lessons - he even relaxed her before her driving test which she passed on her first attempt. I have already recommended Vince to three other learner drivers :)

Max

Glen is an amazing instructor, so patient (with me the mum!), and great at communicating positive feedback to my son so that he gains confidence with his driving in Sydney. My son looks forward to his lessons each week and I have no doubt he will be an excellent driver due to Glen's tuition rather than mine! Highly recommend.

Charlie

Glen was fantastic for the 2 hour prep lesson prior to the test, really understanding of the needs of our son and filling the gaps. Highly recommend- Thanks Glen!

Mimi

Nev helped me get my licence. I had previous instructors but Nev really encouraged me. Now I can reverse park which helps in Syd! Thanks Nev!

Benjamin

Absolutely brilliant. We are beyond grateful for Glen’s professional, thorough and exceptional lessons. Glen tailors his lessons to the children and understands teenagers. We are so appreciative of his time and encouragement. We look forward to seeing him next year when our next teenager is able to drive.

I HIGHLY recommend Vince as a driving instructor. He is professional, intelligent and has a lovely manner! Vince taught my daughter so well and she looked forward to lessons with him. He was very patient and knew what driving skills she had to work on. My daughter passed her driving test first go! Thank you so much Vince!!

Josh

As an older learner (32) I was nervous to begin learning to drive properly - but from day 1 Vince was the calming and reassuring voice I needed. He was patient and thorough in what he taught and was quick to identify what needed to be done in subsequent lessons to prepare me for my driving test. Today after a number of lessons with Vince I was able to pass my P's test on the first go - a testament to his incredible skill as an instructor (and being an all-round good guy). Thanks for the chats over the last few months Vince - can't wait to send my friends/kids your way in the near future! :)

Very friendly instructor. Was always on time and very informative. I was very calm under Glen's guidance.

Joanna

I was so thankful to have Holly as my driving instructor. I had been putting off driving practice because I didn’t enjoy driving and got very anxious about it. But Holly immediately put me at ease and helped me to grow in confidence. She is always calm, kind and clear and never made me feel stupid when I made a mistake. She really simplified things so I felt that it was manageable and that I could actually do this. I have now passed my driving test thanks to her help! I can’t recommend her highly enough, especially if you are someone who gets anxious about driving. Thank you so much Holly!!

Kenju

I had a last minute lesson before the test and found Glen was a wonderful teacher. His instructions and suggestions were very right and what I needed for improvement.

Liv

Nev is not only and exceptional driving instructor, but he's also an all-round incredible person. Every lesson, he brings not just valuable driving skills but also a great sense of humour and engaging conversations, which significantly boosted by confidence and ease on the road. If there was an option to rate him higher than 5 stars, I would definitely do so! He truly goes above and beyond.

Punctual, spot on and to the point as to what you need to pass, and I would suggest the 5 lesson package, as you can't do it in less, and I passed without losing any points! Totally recommend.

Chris was incredibly helpful with my driving and pointed out all the things i needed to pass my test. Really nice and easy to talk to. Thanks to Chris i passed my test first time.

Marinda

Hannah, my daughter, went for a 2 hour getting her ready for her test and she was very impressed with Michael, her response - "that was so good, he was amazing". Michael gave her the right tips and told her he does not see any reason why she should not pass on her first attempt and he was right, she passed on Friday.

Very calm, straightforward teaching, very efficient booking system. Highly recommended

Vin

Ben is an absolute legend of a driving teacher! Despite me being 30 years old and having a lifelong fear of driving (we're talking "panic attacks behind the wheel" level of anxiety here), Ben was still able to help me get to the point where I could pass my Driving Test on the first go around. His understanding of what it takes to overcome driving anxiety is amazing, and he introduced the process piece by piece to me so it became approachable to me. Highly recommended!

Scarlett

Thanks for all of your help and advice. Passed my test on the first attempt!

Bobby

Nev is a very patient and supportive instructor. Straightforward and simple directions & always a kind word to keep the nerves down. Thanks!!

Farhat

I would like to say Thanks to all team. North Shore Driving School was really helpful for me. Especially my instructor Adam. He did a great job. I passed my exam easily as I followed his directions. I appreciate his kindness and his patience, and he clearly and thoroughly explained to me all the rules and regulations.

Katherine

I passed my practical driving test on the first attempt and I owe a majority of that success to the time I spent with the North Shore driving school. Leila was a great help in preparing for the exam and a calming presence to have throughout such a tricky process. Five Stars all around

Matt

Glen was great with my son, getting him set with the basics just after he got his learners. We will use him again a few months in, and then again before his test.

Jacqui

Ben is a great teacher! The lessons had a comfortable atmosphere and I wasn't stressed because Ben is so lovely and funny. I passed first try after only a couple of lessons with Ben. Couldn't be happier.

Elanor

Amazing instructor, very knowledgable on the driving test around the Hornsby area and a great teacher who gives clear instructions on how to drive properly.

Sean

Nev has the patience of a saint! He was so supportive and constantly encouraged me to stay positive when my nerves and anxiety were making things difficult. The way he teaches is so seamless and creates a no pressure environment in which driving lessons are fun. His reverse parking instructions are so simple and fail safe that the manoeuvres part of the test becomes a non issue. I genuinely don't think I'd have passed without him. Thank you Nev for being an absolute legend.

Alastair

I passed first go and was very happy with the wonderful lessons I received. Great explanations and tips from Michael

Pablo

Glenn is simply fantastic. He is a great instructor and gives very valuable tips not only for passing the test but for driving safely and confidently in Australia. I highly recommend him!

Aria

Micheal was so supportive and helpful. I could not recommend more, He genuinely cares and it was an amazing experience having lessons with him

Penelope

Amazing instructor! Highly recommended.

Leo

He was great, very thorough, experienced, efficient and is good at staying calm while being firm, never late and has a nice car.

Noah

This was our third child that has learnt to drive with North Shore Driving School, but the first one to have Nev as his instructor. From the first drive, to the final drive (test day package), Nev was fabulous. Nev has a calm, reassuring and friendly manner, that instantly made our son feel comfortable and engaged to learn, and happy to continue doing lessons. He learnt all the basics (I mean, he literally hadn't driven a car) from Nev, and then had lessons here and there over the 12 month period to keep him on the right path and to pick up any bad habits he may have acquired. In the final weeks leading up to him going for his "P"'s, he did more lessons with Nev, each one valuable, and again, Nev's guidance and instructions on the necessary requirements to pass the test, as well as being a great driver, was greatly appreciated. If we had another child in need of driving lessons, we would definitely book them in with Nev again, and think that anyone looking for a great instructor for their child, you need look no further, Nev is a gem.

Stanley

Vince gave me a pre-test lesson that I found really useful. Highly recommend.

Mitchell

Nev is an outstanding instructor - kind, and patient in his teaching style. My son passed his test with flying colours and felt confident that Nev had taught him everything he needed to know. Nev also provided his car for my son to do his 'P's' test and went out of his way to pick him up after school to do this. Nev was recommended to me and I would have no hesitation in recommending him as a great instructor.

Arseny

Great advice

Tokka

Excellent, passed first time.

Stanley

I had a pre-test lesson with Chris which was very useful as he highlighted a couple of things I hadn't been aware of or had forgotten to do. I would highly recommend Chris.

Charlie

Passed my driving test :)

Charles

Both me and my sister booked lessons with Adam and we can both safely say he was exceptional! We went from semi-competent drivers to test ready in the matter of 5 lessons, and we both passed our P's first go! Adam knew all of the testing routes and specifics for the Hornsby RTA, and he took every effort to ensure we were ready and prepared for whatever the test could be. I know many other driving instructors provide sub-par lessons in the hope you'll fail and pay more however Adam is the opposite! Thanks so much and HIGHLY recommend!

Aldrina

I had a great experience learning to drive with Ben and Nev. They were patient, knowledgeable, and provided clear instructions throughout each lesson. Their teaching approach helped me build confidence behind the wheel and prepare for my driving test. I highly recommend both for anyone looking for an excellent driving instructor.

Corin

Corin really liked Vince and found him very helpful and engaging

Ryan

Chris is a great instructor! You would do well to book with Chris! He is very thorough and treats every lesson as if it was the test itself. Never missed a beat and was always willing to provide knowledge on road rules & other driving skills. I would recommend Chris to anyone who wants to pass their test on the first go!

Sophie

Neville was an awesome driving instructor. I had lessons with him in the beginning and then later on, we had lessons to prepare for my driving test. I passed first go. He made the lessons fun. He was just great!!!!

Adam has been wonderful with my son and was very accommodating regarding time and pick up location etc. My son passed the test in his first go and got very good score. Many thanks Adam! Really appreciate your guidance!

Marcus

Passed my P’s first try the other day, all thanks to Nev. Nev is an absolute legend, not only does he teach driving to be methodical, for example his method for parallel parking, which was in my P’s. But, also he teaches how to drive safely to conditions and be a more responsible driver. Nev has also taught my sister and several of her and my friends, they all praise his teaching methods and achieves similar results. Thanks Nev, for making lessons fun and extremely valuable for my P’s test and my future driving. Cheers again Nev. Many Thanks, Marcus

Imogen

Nev was so helpful and integral to me getting my licence. As someone who was very anxious about starting to drive and then sitting my test he was constructive, patient and encouraging. I couldn't recommend him more highly to anyone learning to drive at any age.

Nev is a skilled driving instructor. I've had 2 daughters drive with him and he's about to teach my third daughter too. Explains things well and the girls feel very comfortable around him too!
