Frequently Asked Questions

For your first lesson, please bring your learner's permit (L plates), comfortable shoes, and any glasses or contacts if you need them for driving. You don't need to bring anything else — the car and fuel are provided.

This varies based on your prior experience and confidence level. After your first few lessons, I can give you a personalised estimate based on your progress.

Prices are shown on the booking page before you confirm — a Single or a Casual lesson, charged by the hour, with a discount for consecutive hours. Payment is arranged directly with me, and there is no online payment. A lesson you have already booked keeps the price it was booked at.

Yes, you can reschedule or cancel up to 24 hours before your lesson. Just send me a message and we'll find a new time that works.

Please contact me by email if you're running late. I'll wait up to 15 minutes, but the lesson will still finish at the scheduled time. If you're more than 15 minutes late without contact, the lesson may be treated as a no-show.

I cover Western Sydney including Lidcombe, Parramatta, Auburn, Homebush, Strathfield, Granville, Burwood and Olympic Park. Pickup within my service area is free. Contact me if you're outside it — I may still be able to help.

Yes — pickup from your home, school or workplace within my service area is free. Just provide your address when booking and I'll meet you there at the scheduled time.

I teach in a modern Toyota Corolla (automatic) with dual controls, all safety features and a licence plate that other drivers recognise. The car is regularly serviced and cleaned.

I currently teach automatic transmission only. Most learners in Australia choose automatic as it's easier to learn and lets you focus on road skills rather than gear changes.

I have experience with students who have driving anxiety, special needs or learning differences. Let me know in advance so I can tailor my approach to support you best.

Yes, you can use my car for your driving test. This includes a pre-test warm-up, use of the car during the test, and waiting while you take it.
