Instructor bio
Hi! I am Sam, a professional and certified Driving Instructor with years of experience. I began my career in 2016 and have instructed thousands of students during one-on-one practical driving lessons and helped them acquire the skill to become proficient drivers.
I am friendly, organised, punctual and courteous. I excel at establishing rapport with a diverse range of people from many different backgrounds. I am patient and dedicated to helping students prepare for their driving test by providing tips for safe, effective driving and parking techniques. I do keep a record of each lesson and your progress so we can improve on areas of weakness during our next lesson.
At the start of each lesson, I briefly explain the traffic rules and the lesson plan for the day; ensuring safety of the students at all the times. I enjoy what I do. In particular, I like meeting new people and help them improve driving skills, as it is a skill for life. I am familiar with local testing requirements, so before you go for your P’s you can do a refresher lesson to check if you are ready for test or not.
Apart from my work, I love doing volunteer work, photography and visiting new places during my spare time.
Reviews
Sam was my instructor and was the best.
Always cool! Every practice session with Sam was very informative and I learnt a lot.
Sam not only taught great methods but also let me improvise my existing methods. Really appreciate that.
I would recommend Sam to any one who have never drove before and want to learn driving and also to someone who have some prior experience and want to improvise their skills.
Thanks mate!

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.
