Manual driving instructors specialise in teaching learners how to drive cars with a manual transmission. While manual driving requires more practice and coordination, it offers greater control over the vehicle, which can be beneficial for performance and fuel efficiency.

Common Questions
FAQs
Here's a few of the questions we get on a regular basis. Can't find the answer you're looking for? Please check our full FAQ page.

Bonus: Save when you book a lesson package — perfect if you're planning ahead.
Can I Take Refresher Driving Lessons?
Of course! Many existing driver’s licence holders book driving lessons to refresh their skills or build up some more confidence, especially if they have spent some time not driving. We recommend about 3 to 5 hours of driving instruction in cases like this.
When should I book driving lessons?
You can book driving lessons as soon as soon as you’ve obtained your learner’s licence. You do not require any prior driving experience to undertake driving lessons.
The sooner you start learning with a professional driving instructor, the better your experience as a learner driver will be. Driving lessons can help you become a better driver at any stage and many learner drivers take driving lessons to help them prepare for the driving test.
Our driving instructors welcome the opportunity to assist anyone (all licence holder types) who feel their skills or confidence require a boost. Driving lessons are for anyone, not just holders of a learners licence.
If you are an international driver’s licence holder you should confirm with your local state/territory authority that you are currently allowed to drive on Australian roads before booking driving lessons. Our driving instructors are helping thousands of overseas driver's licence holders convert their licences each year.
Can I Change Instructors?
Absolutely. At EzLicence, we know that having a rapport with your driving instructor makes for a more comfortable – and therefore effective – learning experience. If you want to book a lesson with another driving instructor, just follow the same steps. From your dashboard select 'find another instructor' and then choose the instructor you'd like. Check their availability and book online. Take your driving lesson. It's that simple.
