Instructor bio
I am not your usual driving instructor as I only instruct in a manual vehicle and have done so for over 10 years. I am a strong believer in learning to drive a manual car as this skill allows you to drive with confidence any vehicle manual or automatic. I have a background in finance and working with large organisations always in a role that required working with people and training people.
I taught my two sons to drive a manual car and am currently teaching my daughter. I think there is no greater test of your patience and skill as a driving instructor than to be able to teach your kids and for me this was and is a positive experience for both the kids and dad.
My objective when instructing is for the student to have fun. This is only possible if the student feels confident in the method of instruction, I am happy to say my students and I have fun 99% of the time.
Finally, I love seeing a students reaction when the logic of driving kicks in and they "get it,” and of course when they walk out of the RMS with their P plates.
Reviews
Lucky is a very good instructor. He is professional but in a friendly way. If I need extra classes in future I will be happy to learn from him.
I definitely would recommend him.

He is very good. Very patient and provide feedbacks at appropriate time. He gives encouragement and at the same time make me aware mistakes I have done.
If i am not that busy, I will keep taking his lessons regularly

Lucky is an excellent instructor. If you have to follow the rules he will explain every single detail with a logic why you need to follow. As a driver, you really need to know the blind spots around the car, to which lucky shows illustration which at least I was surprised how shot or far my blind spots were. He is very patient and does not shout at all. He is very soft spoken and jovial. He is very flexible with his timing and keeps his car very clean and tidy. He is very good at building confidence and would recommend him any day as an instructor.

Learn in your car
Learning in your own car can be a good idea if:
- You are a confident learner driver about to take a driving test
- You are on a provisional or unrestricted licence
- You have a new car to familiarise yourself with
Learning in your own car is not suitable for inexperienced or new learner drivers.
Our instructors are happy to offer lessons in your car if it is registered, roadworthy, comprehensively insured & clean. Our instructors reserve the right to refuse instruction in your car if they believe your driving skills or vehicle condition are a safety risk. The instructor may wish to conduct one or more lessons in their own vehicle prior.
To learn in your own car, simply add a lesson note upon booking.

Logbook 1 hr = 3 hrs
For every 1 hour structured driving lesson you complete with a licensed driving instructor, you can record 3 hours driving experience in your log book. A maximum of 10 hours of lessons will be accepted and recorded as 30 hours driving experience.
Driving lessons at night (between sunset and sunrise) count for only 1 hour of night driving. The other 2 hours are added to your day driving hours.
