Instructor bio

Hi, my name is Rod. I began my career as a driving instructor in 2017. I am an independent business operator, when means that I have the flexibility to work where I want and when I want. This also helps when fitting in to a learner's schedule. I am a dynamic, friendly and professional driving instructor who is passionate about assisting students with learning and giving them all the necessary tools to become a successful driver. I draw on my previous experience when providing outstanding customer service and believe that is important in making the overall journey a smooth and enjoyable one.   As a ‘people person’, I thrive on the one-on-one interaction and enjoy being able to help others achieve their goals and get their licence. I look forward to assisting you. I will be overseas until mid May and look forward to resuming with my current and new students when I return.

Reviews

Rod is an absolutely amazing instructor. I felt so much more confident after only 1 lesson and it just kept improving after every lesson. He is incredibly supportive and knowledgeable and has a way of making you feel at ease while still maintaining his professional boundaries. He truly cares about your improvement and success. There was never a dull or awkward moment.

Rod is fantastic. Patient, kind. Not pushy and a great teacher. He keeps things simple and straightforward and doesn't overwhelm with info but keeps you focused on the task at hand. Honestly, I initially went with Rod because he was available in my area, but I couldn't be happier with his work!

Rex

Rod was very patient and supportive of me in our lesson. He encouraged me and pushed me through the lesson and helped me when I felt anxious during the lesson. Highly recommend Rod as his teaching methods are very effective whilst helping me to push further with driving. Will have again!

Olivia

Rod was a phenomenal instructor, just passed my test today after 3 lessons with him. Would definitely recommend him to any students willing to learn, great teacher, communicator and person. You will be well looked after.
