Highly recommend Mark Thomson. He has an old-school approach in the best way—kept consistent, professional,, friendly and always on top of safety. He challenged my daughter to reach a high standard, which helped her gain the confidence and skills needed to pass her manual driving test. We really appreciated his support. From a very grateful Dad

Mark was an incredible driving instructor! He was patient, supportive and always had helpful tips that made difficult situations feel easy to manage. He helped me stay calm and confident behind the wheel, which made a huge difference when it came to my driving test. Even on the morning of my test when my indicator wasn’t working, he helped me get it fixed just in time, which really showed how dedicated he is to his students. I’m so grateful for all his help and would highly recommend him to anyone learning to drive!

I had lessons with both Jody & Mark. They were both great teachers while I was learning manual to upgrade my licence. Both Jody & Mark were calm and never got frustrated when I stalled and they needed to take over controls. They explained manual transmission, clutch, and all the manoeuvres so I could easily understand and I passed the manual driving test on my first go! Thank you Jody & Mark!

I worked with Mark a few weeks before my manual test. He took the time to make sure I knew exactly what I was doing wrong and showed me how to fix it. A super nice guy who knew what he was doing. The price here was one of the cheapest I could find and overall was very much worth it as I think through the combination of mistakes I was making, I wouldn’t have passed on my first attempt. Really recommend.

Booked 10 lessons with Mark for my daughter and was really happy with the results. Mark's attention to detail and thorough explanation of things that needed to be worked on was excellent. My daughter was successful in obtaining her manual licence on her first attempt and a good part of her success can be attributed to Mark's lessons. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending his services to anyone else looking to learn to drive a manual. Will definitely be using him when my other child gets her learners.

There's a reason why someone is in a driving class, to learn to drive and i didn't learn driving, all i experienced was backseat driving and yelling from a typical boomer, and I've never driven such a shit car in my life, 100 percent would not recommend, not very affordable like the name says and not very driving school like since i wasn't schooled driving
