LEARN AT YOUR PACE

Driving Lessons for Beginners

That very first time behind the wheel is a little scary – for the new driver AND whoever is sitting next to them, especially with the first child in the family to get their Learners License. I know from experience that I took for granted that my daughter would know how to steer at least! I got my first grey hairs with that one haha!

Some beginner drivers are a natural behind the wheel, others not so good. Let a professional be the first person to sit beside a learner driver if you are prone to anxiety yourself, or the thought of not having control makes you ill.

A “Fully Comprehensive, all you need to know” course turning the absolute beginner into a confident driver ready to go with a parent/ supervisor for driving lessons to fill up your logbook.

Driving Lessons for Partly Trained Learner Drivers

Already had driving lessons before? Maybe a bit of experience with mum and dad? No need to start from the beginning! I’ll pick up your where you left off. I’ll have a little char with you to find out what you know and what you would like to do next. No time wasting at all. This saves heaps of money that you can put towards your first car!

Driving Test Rescue

Failed your test when you went in on your own or with another Driving School? Perhaps it was not entirely your own fault. You just may not have been 100% ready to have your P’s. Let me evaluate you and see if together we can get your licence this time around. You may not need too many driving lessons, just a little confidence boosting!

Why Learners and their parents choose me

WHY LEARNERS AND THEIR PARENTS CHOOSE ME

Selecting a Driving Instructor is an important process. You want Learning to Drive to be fun, interesting and of course, Educational.

Finding out through your friends is one great way to find an instructor as you will have had feedback about them from your friends. Your parents may even put you in touch with who taught them! Yes, there are some older instructors out there who have taught two and maybe three generations from the one family. That is just how committed we are once we get going!

Another way to find an awesome instructor is to read reviews on social media. It is important to also take into account that some reviews may have been pre written by the Driving Instructor for copying and pasting by their students. Not an entirely honest practise but if the student agrees, then either they couldn’t think of what to write themselves, or perhaps they received some sort of compensation to do so.

Every review on my social pages has been written by either my students or their parents. None were ‘paid for’.

You can see what others have written about me HERE

The nicest feedback that I get is often from parents who don’t always put it in writing for me – and it’s when they state what a difference that they have noticed in their Childs’ driving after a lesson with me.

CONFIDENCE – a professional lesson boosts a new drivers confidence as they are in a calm, relaxed environment. Parents are fantastic supervisors, but conflicts can sometimes arise when a parent/ supervisor may over react to a situation, shout out or grab the wheel (or handbrake! I used to as a parent!)

It is the role of a professional to prepare a new Learner Driver for driving supervised with their parents! Not the other way around. A few professional lessons could put you both at ease.

SAFETY – Having your first few lessons in a car with dual controls and a professional who knows how to handle any situation on the road is a lot safer for a beginner driver.

Gentle, step by step coaching on when to check mirrors, shoulder checking, moving at speed relevant to the conditions and much more. There are layers of learning that are better retained if done in order rather than expecting a learner driver to know it all as soon as they get behind the wheel.
Here is what some parents and students have to say about their experience:

I passed my test first try yesterday and can honestly say a large part of my success was because of Sonia and her help. Before Sonia, I was using another driving school who were cheaper, but incredibly unreliable. They were constantly late, or would cancel my lesson without warning, or just didn’t show up. Trust me when I say you’re better off investing in Sonia. She has never once let me down or changed a lesson without plenty of notice. She’s completely worth the money. She’s incredibly friendly, patient, and calm. Perfect for anxious learners. She explains mistakes clearly, then helps you to correct them. Could not recommend her enough!

Sonia was an absolute pleasure to learn all the necessities of driving with. She was not only super helpful and knowledgeable but she was also extremely kind, reassuring and you can tell how much of a passion Sonia has for safe driving and teaching learners to be the best they can be. I am so grateful to have had Sonia help me and give me very useful tips which I wouldn’t of passed without! Thank you Sonia

As a parent i couldn’t recommend Sonia highly enough as a Driving Instructor for your learner child. She is so very knowledgeable & understanding of both the very nervous parent & the learner driver. And is by your side every step of the way. Her passion shines through her very successful results. My son passed his test first go, and he was a driver who was so very nervous to even get behind the wheel at all in the beginning. Thank you so much Sonia. You are awesome!!!

Sonia is so encouraging and supportive. She never push for buying her class and support individual goal. She wrote me two email listing my weakness and strategy to overcome them. She sent me google image for tricky Canadian roundabout and strategy to go through the roundabout. I give Sonia full credit for my driving license. Her driving school is highly recommended and I consider myself lucky to get a a driving teacher like her.

Sonia is calm, friendly and professional, putting your child at ease as they learn how to drive. The feedback given to us at the completion of each lesson has helped us to know what level he is travelling at which we have found to be extremely helpful. We would highly recommend Sonia.
