Instructor bio
I have been a driving instructor for over 12 years. I am one of only a few driving instructors in Sydney’s South West who instructs full-time in a manual vehicle. I am a strong believer in learning to drive in a manual vehicle as this skill allows you to drive any vehicle with confidence. I have a career background as a diesel motor mechanic and then worked in the print industry for 15 years as a independent print broker.
I am truly passionate about road safety and my job makes me feel I am making a tangible difference in people's lives. I feel as if I am contributing to the objective of a zero road toll and that makes me proud to be a driving instructor.
I enjoy connecting with young people and also people from all walks of life. It’s interesting and enjoyable and keeps me on my toes!
I come from a large family and have a son who is only 2 years away from the learning to drive journey. Cars and motor sport are my hobbies, so driving instructing was a natural fit for me. Doing what you enjoy never feels like work.
My Qualifications:
Certificate 4 in Driving Instruction
Working With Children Checked
Fully insured

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.
