Meet Your Instructor

I’m Kerry, a Hamilton dad and driving coach and youth employment facilitator. I'm somewhat old fashioned in that I'll tell you straight up what you do well and what you need to be doing better. I'll be honest about what it takes to get you road ready. No upsells, just genuine learning experiences that will get you to being a safe and confident driver.

Who Kerry's Teaching Style Works Best For

Novice / Nervous First Time Learners

With Kerry’s youth mentor experience, he understands teenage nerves. No judgment, no rushing just patient, supportive guidance until your confidence fully clicks. Begin your driving journey.

Budget Conscious Families Seeking Affordability

Lessons start from $69 per session. I prioritize safe driving which continues well past getting a licence, without pushing costly "driver trainer" packages. Your plan is your plan and if you need 3 lessons or 10 lessons you only pay per session.

Previously Unsuccessful in Driving Tests

Failed a practical before? In one assessment drive I can usually pinpoints exactly what went wrong and apply some remedies to fix those gaps. Just targeted tuition until you drive and pass with confidence

The Car You Will Get To Use!

What car will be driven?

I use a Holden Barina or if you want to use your own car that would be fine as well, just make sure it has a current WoF and Rego and preferably fully insured!
