Huge thanks to Jeremy 2 for 2 both kids polished and trained and first go drivers licence!
Cannot thank you enough for the help and support for both or our kids on their journey to becoming safe drivers.
I cannot recommend and thank Prue enough for being so encouraging and patient with me. After having not driven for 3 years, I was obviously keen to finally get my license but was extremely nervous. However, in only 5 lessons, Prue's calm and reassuring nature allowed me to be able to feel fully confident behind the wheel. I passed my P's today and can safely say I couldn't have done it without her!
Hey Andrew,
Thanks for the lessons and picking up on my weaknesses, I wouldn’t have passed the test without you
I Just wanted to say Thankyou to the team at Learn Drive Survive after having my sister and myself go through this company. I had four different drives due to circumstances of being ill. This driving school were very accomodating to my needs they always managed to find me time to get all 10 lesson in. My safety drivers course was also a very important and helpful day out.
Thankyou to Prue, Jeremy and especially Andrew for taking me on weeks before my test making sure I ready ready to past first time :) which I did.
This is for SDC in Ballina!
I participated in Learn Drive Survive Driving Course in Ballina and would recommend to any young person I know as it gave me all the tools I need to increase my safety and awareness while driving! I would love to thank the wonderful facilitator Nancy (SHE WAS AMAZING) who created an engaging, immersive and supportive environment for the Module 1 lessons allowing me to learn and retain crucial information in theory and practice/activites . I would also like to thank Ray for the Module 2 lessons who kept composed, professional and delivered very essential driving information clearly. It allowed me to understand the importance of driving safely. I highly encourage ALL YOUNG PEOPLE to use Learn Drive Survive for their future Safe Driving Course.
Our lad found the instructor to be exactly as described on the website, very professional, friendly, patient and someone who adapts to different people and their learning style. Thanks!
LDS was absolutely key to my success in passing the driving test in first try. I had attended only 3 lessons. He was able to give me confidence by teaching step-by-step techniques for parking, turning right at lights and using roundabouts. He also gave me plenty of preparation for the driving test itself so I knew exactly what to expect in the test, where I would be driving and the kinds of directions the tester would give me. Very professional, always on time and patient with my doubts too. Definitely Recommend Learn Drive Survive Services. Simone who scheduled my lessons was so polite and was very professional.
Such an amazing experience.
I was not confident about getting my license, but Chris and David quickly eased my fears and anxiety.
I only had three lessons and on the fourth, I got my license on the first try!
They really are so empathetic and know exactly how to help you get your license but also teach you how to be safe! Could not recommend them more!!!
My daughter had lessons with John and was nervous beforehand but he instantly put her at ease. He made her feel comfortable and was great at explaining and giving directions. She passed her driving test first go.
Would highly recommend John for lessons.
I had 3 driving lessons (including one on the test day) with John. I desperately needed to pass because my license was going to expire 4 days after the booked test date. Before doing any driving lesson with John, I have been trying to attempt driving tests and failed for 3 times. I was even going to give up driving.
Finally, John with his big smile and lots of words of encouragement, he helped me to pass the test! He was very encouraging and praised me for every excellent tasks that I completed - which made me felt good and boosted my confidence! Unlike other driver instructors who's being too critical, he praised for every improvement that I made (even small ones!) and he didn't make a big fuss on the mistake I made, but instead guiding me on how to correct it. He even told me to believe in myself (I had very low self-confidence and this motivation really touches my heart and changes the way I look at myself!). He really helped to make me feel confident and relaxed with his friendly chats and funny jokes :) He also encouraged me to understand the importance of safe driving.
I really command John on his effort on helping me to get my license!
Also, I command Learn Drive Survive Driving School for helping me throughout the booking and answering my enquiries. Dee is always very quick in responding through my enquiries through the website and the website is so easy to navigate to make the lesson bookings!
Overall, I highly recommend Learn Drive Survive Driving School, not only to help you get your license but also to understand safe driving! :) Great work!
Brett was amazing! He made me feel so comfortable in driving with him and has made me very confident to go for my licence, thankyou Brett!!
It really helped me move out of my comfort zone. The staff were nice and helpful and I didn’t feel pressured.
Great lesson, very friendly and professional instructor who gave awesome tips
Highly recommend. Thanks to my instructor Simone for not giving up on me. Felt so relax and calm in front of the steering wheel. And to Dee, whose very friendly and helpful.
Had a really good time and always learning new things
Simone is amazing, she’s really good at helping me reverse park. She helps me understand that I need to check over my shoulders when I turn a corner
Spud was an amazing teacher who helped me with getting my P’s. He was extremely friendly and patient and gave me the confidence I needed to pass the driving test. And Dee in the office made booking lessons easy and was super friendly.
The team at Learn Drive Survive are all amazing and I would recommend them to everyone.
Thanks Spud and Dee
Enjoyable and helpful lesson, the instructor (Spud) made me feel comfortable and gave me useful information regarding my Driving test. Thanks.
Good teaching
Prue was excellent and has helped me develop leaps and bounds , she is calm collected and precise while also being a bubbly and outgoing personality , a wonder to be my driving instructor and I would recommend to anyone who may be struggling with reverse or parallel parking as she walks you through the process in a way that anyone can grasp and have fun with ,she also explains road languages in a way that is easy to grasp aswell as providing a thorough walkthrough of how to handle tricky situations that may catch some drivers , in conclusion she is excellent and I look forward to my next lesson with her , five stars
What a wonderful team of enthusiastic and friendly instructors. I am extremely grateful to the team at LDS for helping my daughter strengthen her skills and experience to gain her P plate license.
All lessons were conducted professionally and instructors turned up on time, every time.
I would like to thank Roz and Tracy for their lessons.
A massive shout out to Chad but !
My daughter found Chad very supportive, friendly and an overall top instructor.
Chad was an excellent mentor for my daughter , he went above and beyond been flexible and present the day of the P test , was just another sign of his dedication to his students.

Fantastic driving school, big help in getting my sons license.
Thank you so much for giving me the confidence to get my licence finally, especially to Chad, because of Chad I was able to after a very very long time find my freedom, not have to wait hours for buses and not have to rely on anyone else for once.
I am turning 50 this year, so its a big achievement for me,
Chads very patient, great at explaining, and even got out in the rain to show me where the blind spots were, so again Thank you from the bottom of my heart Thanks Dale Brown
A huge thank you to Chad and Dee for your professionalism and patience on helping my daughter Emma get her Ps first attempt and teaching her safe driving habits! Thank you Rachel Haskins
I used LDS at the very beginning of my learners license to get all the basics in place before being taught by my parents, then I had 4 more lessons with LDS the week before my P test and also the hour before the test, I am so glad that I did as it sharpened my skills and I learned a lot from the guys at LDS..
Could not have asked for a better driving instructor. Prue was calm and very professional and helped me relax enough to drive confidently and safely .and most of all she didn't let me give up no matter how much I wanted to
Also Dee is so amazing,she is very supportive and helped so much when I was doubting myself.
Thank you learn drive survive ???
Ryan is so helpful! Very patient and explains everything you're doing, I feel im a naturally panicked driver but Ryan has eased that extremely!! Thanks again Ryan!
Both Gabby and I would sincerely like to thank Ros for her help and kindness towards Gabby. A couple of months ago Gabby had no confidence in driving and Ros help her with her confidence. As such she achieved obtaining her P's within her first go at trying. We were both so thrilled.
I would personally like to thank Ros for helping Gabby. She was wonderful and patient.
My youngest Daughter Elena will be driving in 2 years, and I would not hesitate reach out for Ros' help in 2 years time. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend your company and Ros as an instructor to anyone.
Kind regards
Tina and Gabby Hammond.
Ros was very friendly and extremely helpful, looking forward to my next lesson
Thank you.
Simone is the best teacher ever)enjoyed our lessons a lot!
Thank you guys for you expertise Caleb got his license on his first attempt. A big thank you to both Spud and Dee as they were wonderful in making the whole process easy and delightful.
Thank you
Hayley
Instructors were insightful and very friendly. Loved my experience and definitely reccomended
We couldn’t have chosen a better driving school! Brooke loved Spud and said he was the best!! Brookes knowledge of driving and rules is far more than I expected! Brooke teaches me things! Thank you so much we are forever grateful
Many thanks
Rachael Baxter
My daughter thoroughly enjoyed her first driving lesson and came back feeling much more confident. This has then given me confidence to take her for short easy trips around local streets. She thought her instructor was fantastic after being apprehensive about it before going. We plan to book a package of lessons to really give us both the confidence to tackle busier streets and longer distances and start the long process of gaining her drivers license.
Thank you for your professional service. I really enjoyed my lessons. Also, I’d like to thank Chad for being a great instructor.
Thanks again.
My name is Lauren (Lochlans Mum) and I hope its ok that I take this survey to express how impressed we are with the quality of teaching that Lochlan received. With each lesson he received, we found that he improved out of sight. His concentration, focus, consideration, maturity and growth with his driving was amazing to witness. We are so thankful to Spud for being such a great instructor and for engaging Lochlan on so many levels with his driving.
Thank you!
Fantastic driver instructor and excellent lessons for our son. Cannot praise this driving school enough or speak more highly of them. Will be booking in our two other children when the time comes as well.
it was great
Great instructors
Learnt so much and had fun doing it .
Thank you!
My lesson was very good and helpful that make me capable to pass in my exam with only one class
The Crew at learndrivesurvive provide an excellent experience and will have you feeling confident in the roads and driving safely in no time at all, I can't recommend them enough, the teachers are friendly and helpful, booking a lesson is easy and rewarding and with package deals available there is no reason not to book now
Ryan was fabulous thank you. On time, kind, patient and knowledgeable. We will book again. Thank you Ryan and Learn Drive Survive
Its really helpful and professional, Simone...
I can not thank Simone enough for her help with getting my P’s! From last minute changes to supporting me through my nerves there was nothing Simone wouldn’t help with. She is kind, caring and professional, everything you would want an instructor to be. I can not recommend Simone highly enough if you’re looking for an instructor for yourself!
Dee is the most amazing person ever!
She has helped me with my driving so much and i would never of been able to get my p’s without her help!
She’s so understanding and makes you feel so comfortable the whole time.
I would recommend the whole team to anyone that wants to book in lessons.
Love these guys!! Thanks so much Dee.
Amazing staff, so calm, helpful and nice. I felt comfortable as soon as I met all three drivers on different occasions. I recommend learn drive survive to everyone I meet.
I felt really comfortable driving with Ros. She has helped build my confidence with just 1 lesson. I will be having all my future lessons with her. Fantastic!
100% recommend learn drive survive. They did amazing job to get me confident behind the wheel. I didn’t think I could of done it without them.
Ryan is an excellent instructor he is a patient knowledgeable instructor who inspires confidence. I have recommended him to several other people. Charlotte
I am so grateful for the lessons as they got me across the line and I was successful in gaining my licence. This has changed my life and given me the freedom of doing anything and not having to rely on anyone. Thank you so much.
Both Spud and Jason were great!
Could not fault them, plenty of little things they taught me that got me my license on Wednesday.
Hi Grant, thanks for walking Mum through her aged drivers assessment. You helped restore her confidence after Service NSW had her convinced she shouldn't drive, although their comments to her were that they were nitpicking. She is much happier back on the road and your little reminders while she drove have helped her overcome some little bad habits that had snuck into her driving. Thanks again. Cheryl Cooper
I really enjoyed my lesson with Spud, he knew what he was doing and communicated clearly, definitely a good experience and a good way to learn how to park properly and other important things before my Ps test. He's a good guy and I would recommend him because he has made me feel confident I can perform well in my test.
Amazing service and communication, thank you so much
Today I had my first ever driving lesson with Spud. Really amazing guy and instructor. He helped me with everything I needed and was easy to talk to about areas of improvement. I would highly recommend Spud to any learner driver.
This is hands down the best driving school ever and this is from a non bias view. I have had different instructors teach me, but this driving school gave me the best instructor of them all Simone. She was great, patient, easy going and dedicated to teach and mentor her students to be able to drive safely.
This driving school is the best to learn how to drive and i guarantee that if you are taught by them and you listen, you will pass on the first try of your driving test. And the driving lessons packages are wonderful cheap and effective as well as they are willing to arrange a pick and drop driving test and also do your driving test in their car. They are wonderful and would hundred percent recommend anyone to them.
Ryan is a patient experienced teacher. I could be happier with him as an instructor and I have recommended him to others who have booked in to learn to drive. Charlotte
Chad was an excellent teacher.
Very courteous!
Thank you so much to Ryan for the amazing driving lessons and helping me pass my p's test! He is a great and patient instructor who helped me with all the things I needed to learn including my reverse parallel park and head checks. I would definitely recommend Ryan, he is an awesome instructor!!
Ryan was an excellent instructor; who was very kind, patient and informative. Thanks to my lessons with Ryan I was able to pass my driving test on my first attempt. I would highly recommend Ryan as an Instructor.
Rachel got her license on 23/9 with the help from Prue.
I recently gained my licence and wanted to say a big thank you to Grant for his excellent advice on helping me achieve my P's. He was friendly and made me feel comfortable when driving with him. He gave me some great tips that I'll be able to use to ensure that I remember the importance of safe driving. Would highly recommend Grant to other learner drivers.
Thanks again Grant, really appreciated your expertise.

Chad was really helpful! After one lesson I felt more confident with my driving.
Super helpful and straight forward in the driving lesson. I was able to learn more about being a safe driver through one lesson with Learn Drive Survive. Loads of fun and is definitely worth it.
My son enjoyed his lesson. Thanks
I was very nervous about starting lessons with someone I didn't know. I did the Keys to Drive lesson with Simone and instantly felt comfortable.
