GoWise Driving School: Reviews
Fantastic experience: I passed my driving test (hoooraay) and a huge part of that is because of Tee. Tee's style of teaching is effective, he is able to identify the student's specific problem and resolves it with a step-by-step approach. He is not just a teacher that says, this and that, but he observes the student so he can provide valuable feedback to correct the issue. He has a very calm demeanor that will set you at ease. I already had a few instructors before and almost gave up on driving but when I found Tee, he is the right mentor. Now, I'm a confident driver all because of Tee. Thanks so much, Tee, if only I can triple the 5-stars here, I will because you are such a great mentor that I truly value.
Thank you Medelle for such lovely words. You are so amazing. Lots and lots of blessings and regards.
Fantastic experience: I recently arrived in New Zealand from Canada and wanted to gain confidence driving in another country. Tee is a very kind, patient and knowledgeable instructor. He took me on a variety of different roads to practice important skills, and provided lots of useful tips about driving in New Zealand. Very affordable, easy to book over the phone prior to my arrival, and picked me up right from my accommodation. Would definitely recommend!
You are such an amazing person with such a lovely feedback. All the best for your working holiday in NZ
Fantastic experience: Tee is an excellent driving instructor!! On top of that he is a really nice guy! He helped my son pass his restricted license and the examiners comments were "that was all pretty good!" Highly recommended you won't go wrong with Tee. Many thanks for passing on your skills to my son! Kind Regards Bruce
Congratulations Leo. And Thank you Bruce for your kind words and also for choosing GoWise Driving School. Kind regards

Drive safe. Keep an eye on idiots who disregard innocent road users. And thank you most kindly for choosing GoWise
Fantastic experience: Tee is an excellent instructor, he is calm and gives good clear feedback. Two lessons with him pre my daughter’s restricted test was so helpful to review her skills and get the feedback needed for a successful test. Thank you Tee
It's was a pleasure meeting Grace and catching up with you. And thank you kindly for your positive feedback.
Fantastic experience: I just passed my full driving license, and I couldn't have done it without taking a class with Go Wise. Although I had been driving for a while, the refresher course helped me focus on key points I needed to be aware of. I highly recommend Go Wise for their outstanding customer service and effective training!
Thanks Maria. Your feedback is so encouraging . Always drive safe
Fantastic experience: I just wanted to say Tee is a wonderful driving instructor. I really appreciate his positive and calm energy - it made me feel so much more at ease behind the wheel. His teaching style is unique and something I haven’t come across with past driving instructors . He has such a personable nature , he’s clear with his instructions and supportive. Thanks again for a great start to my driving journey! ☺️
Ohh TJ that's so sweet of you. Believe in yourself, things will fall in place.
Fantastic experience: Mr Tulsi is the BEST driving instructor, with so much patience and knowledge, he let's you drive with confidence, passed my drive test after a refresher training by him Highly recommend him
Fantastic experience: Amazing driving instructor he taught me how to drive with me having no pervious driving experience within one and a half months of one lesson per week. I passed my restricted test with 0 critical errors thanks to him.
Thank you for your kind words . You have been such a pleasant person. I will miss seeing you again.
Fantastic experience: Passed my practical test after a couple lessons with Tulsi. I probably could have achieved it self-taught, but having a knowledgeable instructor such as Tulsi accelerated the process massively.
Thank you Alex

Fantastic experience: Hello everyone Tulsi Nandan is a very good instructor. He is very kind and amazing person. His guidance really helped me a lot. I took only 4 classes and I cleared my practical driving test in my Ist attempt. Thank you so much Tulsi.
You were an amazing learner, Shagun. Thank you kindly
Fantastic experience: Wonderful instructor, very flexible. He managed to squeeze me in his schedule last minute. Passed my full licence last Friday with only 4 lessons. Highly recommend!
Thank you Ellen for your kind words and recommendation. Drive safe...
Fantastic experience: I booked one hour lesson with GoWise a few days before my Full Practical test (converting from an overseas license) and was given valuable information about the structure of the test and correcting my bad habits I’ve developed over the years of driving. I was shown the area where my test is conducted (Northwood) which helped me pass my practical test with no mistake.
Drive safe buddy. Always pay attention to the crash conditions
Fantastic experience: A calm, knowledgeable, and effective teacher. Very reasonable pricing as well. Helped me address bad habits, deal with my anxiety around driving, & practice important skills - was able to pass my full license test! Thanks Tee
Fantastic experience: Tulsi is an Incredible teacher. Professional, kind, caring and knows how to have a laugh. I learnt so much and I will be applying these skills moving forward. Will miss you Tee!! I also passed my full!! Thanks so much :D
Fantastic experience: I had Tulsi to teach me how to drive properly so that I could pass my restricted, he was a very good teacher and was very calm and taught well. Thanks to him I passed my restricted first try, highly recommend him
Thank you for your kind words. I sincerely appreciate your feedback. God bless
Fantastic experience: Tee help me passed my restricted license. I am very much grateful to Tulsi as my instructor. With his guidance and patience he taught me the skills to become a safe driver. He helped me build my confidence to overcome my nervousness. His lessons were very informative, well-structured and really appreciated the encouragement. Highly recommend Tee Nandan of Go Wise!
Hi Yvonne I appreciate your feedback. You were such an amazing learner. Took all critiques on a positive. Looking forward to seeing you before your full license test. Be safe and drive safe.
Fantastic experience: Highly recommended Good to have gowise in Christchurch with such a reasonable price and a very professional and a calm instructor. If he says you will pass your test that means its a 100% pass, he knows were your weak points are and will help you towards it .Passed my restricted in the first attempt. Removing the L and driving like free bee is the best feeling all thanks to Gowise for all your guidance amd support . Thank you
Thanks for choosing GoWise Ritika. Your positive feedback is very encouraging. Drive safe
Fantastic experience: Best driving school ever! I had a driving lesson before the day I took my practice test for full license. Tee was very patient and listed all the assessable points. We practiced my weak points several times. Successfully passed the test!
Fantastic experience: A truly excellent instructor. Very knowledgeable and patient. My son passed his restricted first time and I'm greatful for the professional and polite manner. Would recommend in a heartbeat
Fantastic experience: Update: passed my restricted on the first attempt. (Another GoWise student had their test just after me and also passed.) Thank you, Tee! Currently learning with GoWise, as an older learner. Tee is a great instructor with years of experience in the driving industry. He is always very calm and takes the time to make sure you have understood him clearly. He is aware of people's needs to work towards the goal of passing tests but is also constantly spotting teaching opportunities to remind you how to be a better, safer driver for life. I'm looking forward to booking in my next lessons soon!
Fantastic experience: Tulsi is the most patient and softspoken instructor I have ever come across. He always stuck to his time, very flexible to book, sends reminder texts on arrival and ensures you feel safe behind the wheel. He taught me for my restricted and guided me for my full licence, which I passed in one go. He was always careful to provide kind feedback and whenever I'd make a driving error, he'd calmly tell me to park on the side of the road, then pull out a drawing paper (and a card as a makeshift ruler) to explain the road layouts and what my mistakes were. At the end of each lesson, he checks in with me to see if I ticked off the driving goal for the day and gives me a wee note of his comments. Amazing man, with inexpensive fees. Definitely recommend!
Fantastic experience: Thought I would get my daughter a couple of proper driving lessons before her restricted test and I’m glad I did. Tee was amazing and knowledgeable. He made her feel super comfortable and gave her so much useful guidance and tips in a short period of time. She couldn’t have done it without him! She said so herself. Taking off her L plates was a proud moment for both of us. Highly Recommend Go Wise
Fantastic experience: Tulsi gave my son driving lessons prior to him sitting his restricted driving test. His patient and calm demeanor along with his in-depth driving knowledge made a real difference and enabled my son to pass his restricted test on his first attempt. I would have no hesitation in recommending Tulsi to anyone looking to for a driving instructor.
Fantastic experience: Had a driving session with instructor Tee for my practical test which was really helpful for me to pass the test. He was calm and precise with the instructions during the session. Highly recommend.
Fantastic experience: Literally the best driving instructor I've had. He is really patient and very good at explaining with diagrams. He really helped me prepare for my restricted license. Thank you Uncle.
Fantastic experience: Tulsi is a super kind and accomodating driving instructor who will take your needs into account and will clearly explain what to do in certain driving situations by drawing diagrams. He helped me to pass both my restricted and full license test first try and I’m very grateful to have had him as my driving instructor. I was able to do the lessons in my own car which I found helpful for sitting my tests. Thank you Tulsi
Fantastic experience: Best driving instructor. Very helpful and learnt a lot.
Fantastic experience: Tulsi was my tutor for a defensive driving course (through AA). Tulsi is very calm, encouraging and respectful, and was always ready to answer any questions. The 5 lessons taught me many valuable skills, in fact I highly recommend this course to any road user - whether you are just starting to drive, or you’ve been driving for 30 years, this course will add to and sharpen your current driving skills. I now feel a lot more confident and prepared when I am driving - thank you, Tulsi!
Fantastic experience: Absolutely recommended, professional and calm instructor who knows what he's doing and your needs. I could pass my restricted with his help, I already recommended to the people around me who needs driving lessons. Thank you, Tulsi!
Fantastic experience: Tulsi is an amazing driving instructor! He is so kind and calm which helped me a lot with my confidence in driving! His feedback is always so helpful and the use of his diagrams really helped me to imagine my car on the road! Amazing advice and service that helped me pass my practical! Thank you Tulsi!
Fantastic experience: Absolutely the best Driving Instructor in Christchurch. Unlike the rest, Tulsi accommodates to your needs and how you learn (drawing diagrams if you need visual help etc) . I had a lot of fear and anxiety about driving due to past trauma of car crashes, however Tulsi helped me work through the anxiety. He never raises his voice or gives commands, he talks in a calm demeanor. I've described him to my peers as having a ''Tibetan monk presence'' just so much patience which is a huge relief. I was able to pass my restricted with his help and I highly recommend you use his services for anyone who is very anxious about driving! A+++
Negative experience: Very unprofessional and not well mannered. Don't waste your money with this guy. Wouldn't recommend.
Fantastic experience: This is soooo good and same time cheap driving school, probably the best choice in Christchurch. Thank you.
Fantastic experience: One of the best driving schools you’d go to. Very thorough with what you should know and be aware of. Tulsi is also an aa defensive driving course tutor. Definitely recommend!
