Thanks for the fantastic review Merce! It’s been wonderful teaching you to drive and I’m so pleased you gained in confidence to pass the driving test so brilliantly. Enjoy your independence and keep learning from every single drive.
Fantastic experience: Both my sons had lessons with Matt and both passed their test first time. Matt clearly caters for individual needs, abilities and learning styles. His lessons are focused, and he follows up with a detailed written review giving advice for improvements. He develops student confidence, and he is really invested in success. He helped my eldest so to achieve his Duke of Ed Gold skill level. We are so pleased and grateful to have had Matt as our driving instructor.
Thanks for the awesome review Louise! Was an absolute pleasure to teach both your sons and they were great at acting upon feedback to not only pass the test but also be safe and confident drivers. Tell them to keep up the good habits! All the best - Matt
Fantastic experience: Matt Campbell was an amazing driving instructor! As someone who lives far away from a city, and has little to no experience with two-lane roads, traffic lights etc., Matt was extremely helpful, calm and patient while preparing me for my full license. It is thanks to him that I was able to pass my full with flying colours. Thank you so much, Matt!
Thank you for the lovely review Stella! It was a pleasure to help you prepare for your full licence. Keep up the excellent driving habits and enjoy every drive.
Fantastic experience: I passed my restricted test last month and I couldn't have succeeded without Matthew's help. Matthew is an excellent driving instructor. He taught me simple, safe teachings and he articulated all of my mistakes made, minor or major. He also taught me advanced driving skills in simple methods, like parallel parking and 3-point turns. He also conducted a mock restricted test three times and he provided me clear constructive feedback per mock test. He's not just a verbal instructor; he brings his iPad whenever he needed to provide visual explanations! I took a 2-year break from driving, but Matthew gave me a second chance. He wasn't concerned about my background, but \a brighter future. He's very friendly, and open-minded and transforms inexperienced drivers like me into experienced safe drivers. If you: are based in North Shore, are inexperienced (or experienced), have taken a break from driving, need to work on certain techniques (e.g. parallel parking) and/or need a mock driving test before your restricted/full license test, Matthew is your man!
Thank you for the awesome review Eric! It was a pleasure teaching you and I’m so pleased you have passed your test. Keep up the good driving habits and enjoy every drive!
Fantastic experience: excellent teaching style, very calm and encouraging and really helped me to pass my test.
Thank you for the review Caitlin and well done for the excellent progress you made to pass your test. Keep up the good habits and enjoy every drive.
Fantastic experience: Can highly recommend Matt Campbell! He is a very patient, calm & accommodating teacher who explains things in easy terms, has a laugh with his students and prepares them so well for their practical test. His driving school vehicle was well equipped with cameras and sensors to help with parking but even when we switched over to our private car which had none of those things, did he help our daughter to conquer parallel parking and driving a big 8 seater like a trouper! It was brilliant for the student and parent to receive a detailed progress report after each lesson, to be able to check in with Matt when there were questions and that he always catered to the students needs and ability. He provided our daughter with mock tests assessments and prepared her in great detail on what to expect. She passed on the first go and felt well prepared and was super grateful to Matt. 10 out of 10 experience!
Thanks for the awesome review and it was a pleasure to teach your daughter. I’m very proud of the progress she made and for passing her restricted licence practical test. I trust she will keep up the good habits to ensure she is a safe and courteous driver. Thanks again!
Fantastic experience: Great driving instructor! Calm throughout the entire drive and explains things clearly. Always on time and genuinely cares about your learning, making sure you can pass your test.
Thanks Jordan! Was a pleasure to assist you develop your driving skills and I’m so pleased you made such great progress and passed the test. Keep up the good habits and enjoy every drive.
Fantastic experience: Matthew is an excellent teacher, he is always calm, understanding and encouraging. I can’t recommend him enough. When I started with Matthew, I couldn’t even steer properly, after about 8 lessons with him I was already doing mock tests. Not only does he teach you how to pass your test, but also how to be a safe driver. He lets you develop your own judgement and gives constructive feedback when needed. I’m glad I picked him to teach me to drive.
Thanks Iqra! It has been my absolute pleasure to teach you from the basics to the advanced skills and everything in between! Keep up the good habits and enjoy every drive.
Fantastic experience: Matt has been really so patient with me. He is so calm, friendly and very encouraging. I found it so helpful when he used the Ipad animations and videos and sent me feedback emails with driving records to track progress. These helped me improve my driving skills and pass my practical exam. Giving my two thumbs up for him! He is a superstar! ☺️
Thanks Adona! Was a pleasure to help you perfect your driving skills. Keep up the good habits and enjoy every drive.
