Car Tuition

Getting your drivers license is one of the most important decisions you will make. It is important that you receive excellent quality instruction and good value for your money.

Your progress during your driving lessons will be recorded in a driving lesson track record which will show your progress throughout your driving lessons. This will also help in between lessons when you are practising without the aid of your instructor. During your driving lessons you will receive regular, honest and constructive feedback.

We offer the highest grade lessons:

  • You can choose to use one of our cars or use your own car
  • Manual or Auto dual controlled
  • Friendly instructor
  • Door to door pick up
  • Free lesson if you fail
  • Mock tests
