    The Best Driving School!

    Laurel is amazing. When starting my Ls I was extremely nervous. However, every lesson with Laurel she made sure I was calm and comfortable. Every lesson through every success but also your mistakes she won’t let you leave the lesson until you get it! Through drawing diagrams, her showing you through the movements of the wheel, and continuous practice even after a perfect run through. I couldn’t recommend Tricia’s Driving School Enough! I have just passed my Ps thank to Laurel!

    Highly recommend Laurel!

    Laurel is an amazing driving instructor! I was quite a nervous driver when I first started driving and was on my Ls for quite a few years. After each lesson with Laurel I felt I had learnt so much from her, from the teaching methods she used and her calmness and guidance throughout each lesson. Laurel got me where I needed to be and I have now passed my P1 test and also feel confident and enjoy driving. So I highly recommend Laurel if you are looking for lessons or to do a test!

    Laurel is a fantastic teacher and so calm

    Both my sons have learnt with Laurel with the youngest getting his licence after lessons and assessment with her in Dec 23 . They have both raved about her teaching skills, what they learnt, and amazing relaxed calmness when she was teaching them to drive. Laurel is equally great with both highly confident or more tentative drivers.

    Shockingly good.

    You will be surprised at how much you learn from each lesson or assessment. Every minute you spend with Laurel improves you as a driver.

    Highly recommend!

    Laurel is the epitome of professional, knowledgeable and kind teaching. She taught both of my kids (who have very different personalities and learning styles) and they both flourished and are much better drivers for it. Thanks Laurel!

    Amazing!

    Laurel taught me so many things while I was learning to drive with her. She made me feel comfortable and confident and when I made mistakes she explained how to correct them clearly and kindly. I would recommend Laurel and Tricia’s Driving School as they did such a good job teaching me and getting me ready for my test. Thank you!

    Couldn’t have asked for a better learning experience!

    So lucky to have found Laurel and Tricia’s driving school! Learning with Laurel has been a whole lot of fun and her knowledge and patience has made each lesson such a pleasure. Being an anxious driver, i was instantly more confidant on the road having Laurel in the passenger seat, showing me the ins and outs of road rules and manoeuvres. Couldn’t have passed my Ps without her, and looking forward to her guidance in the future!

    Laurel has taught 2 of our daughters to drive. We have been so grateful for her expertise getting them safely on the road. Her communication and professionalism are fantastic. Thanks Laurel Amanda and Frazer
