see siaumun01:54 14 Sep 23Neil was an absolute angel and he helped me pass after failing two times from a terrible teacher at another driving school. He was so attentive the whole time during the lessons and was very patient when i made a mistake. He made sure to teach me what to do at each section and built up my confidence before my test. I cannot praise him enough🙏 If you are looking for a good driving teacher, he is the man 💯 (btw i got my test done at carlton vicroads)Katrina BARRETT09:07 11 Sep 23My son was lucky enough to been taught by Patricia in Melbourne's South Eastern Suburbs. She clearly likes teaching people to drive and is passionate and positve in her approach. He said that she was very clear in her instuctions and easy to understand. Highly recommended.Celine Rey09:33 25 Aug 23I took the test package in Broadmeadows. My instructor, Harri, was an amazing and friendly man who taught me how to parallel park perfectly just before the test. He also tried to support me to the best of his abilities, accompanying me inside the VicRoads facility when registering for the test and even made the atmosphere of the car friendlier with the examiner when the test was taking place. Highly reccommend this school.chantal portelli01:28 15 Aug 23I was lucky to have the best experience with two driving instructors from VIP driving school both Marvin and Con were amazing teachers and both taught me how to be confident and smart in my driving lessons, while keeping me calm. I Passed my driving test with Marvin on the first go after many years of being scared to even sit in a drivers chair, and now I can take my little girl out to the zoo and get to work on time,Thank you so much to both Con and Marvin I definitely could not have done it without you both teaching me how to be a good driverAdsheayanails V03:54 28 Jul 23Excellent teachers and excellent service.

So gratefulAlison10:31 05 Jun 23VIP driving school has been very helpful in teaching me to drive and pass my probationary license test.

I would definitely recommend VIP driving school.Andrea Corsini04:30 02 Jun 23Just got my Ps! I'm 23 and wasn't very confident getting started. My instructor George went above and beyond, was patient and freindly made for an enjoyable experience. Taught me three point turn and reverse parralel parking, giving really easy, clear and useful criticism. Went with me for the VicRoads test in Heatherton. Went over things that I wasn't confident in such as head checks, lane changes and speed management - the difference was night and day. Would highly recommend to anyone learning especially if you are nervous, George is fantastic.megan golby06:44 01 Jun 23I recently passed my driving test all thanks to my instructor Shane.

George Angel from VIP Driving was incredible. Not only was he always accommodating and wanting me to succeed, but he equipped me with all the skills needed to be a safe driver. At 27 years old, George helped me pass the first time. Would recommend to anyone.Vinayjit Singh05:45 11 May 23Had a very good experience with the instructors. George is an excellent teacher. He not only focused on teaching me how to drive but also on driving safely. He helped me get my drivers license. Had a great learning experience.sophie ryan05:39 11 May 23Con is the best driving teacher I have every come across. I had experienced 2 driving instructors prior to Con, who were rude, unprofessional and unorganised. Con gave me confidence with his calm, kind and professional attitude. He never once raised his voice at me, or made me feel stressed or overwhelmed on the road. He has a way of making you feel calm and in control behind the wheel, through his great humour and conversation. He is an outstanding driving teacher and a wonderful person. Con taught me to drive with CONfidence! 😊Anupa Alex06:12 09 May 23I was lucky I got Elmer as my instructor and I had an amazing experience learning with him. I have tried other Learning schools and have never got an instructor as good as Elmer. I haven't driven a lot and I was scared of getting on the road. He has a nice way of joking around to make you feel comfortable and not get worried or scared. He also makes sure you learn everything necessary for the test by making you practice multiple times. He also makes sure to take you through all test routes so you won't be surprised by anything during the test. I really recommend VIP Driving school especially Elmer. Thank you!Keely Dinh05:02 01 May 23I was very lucky to have George as my instructor. I started learning how to drive with so much anxiety but George said “don’t worry, you will be driving” and he made that come true! George is very helpful and experienced and he doesn’t just show you how to pass the test but teaches you to be a good driver on the road.I highly recommend George!Patrick Kingham00:53 29 Apr 23sophia camera01:04 24 Apr 23Awesome service, Carlo is amazing!!Bubble Pop06:19 31 Mar 23I just recently passed my license test, all thanks to my driving instructor Con.

I definitely recommend Con because he is patient and teaches me what I need to know for the test and how to drive safely on the road. Overall it was a great experienceElma Winda22:24 17 Mar 23George was my driving instructor for the past few weeks.

Would highly recommend Vip school of driving as well as Sam personally as an instructor!Elsea Tsui13:15 14 Jan 23Although being an relatively experienced driver with my own car, I still learned heaps from lessons with VIP driving school's tutor, Shan, who is not only good at road rules, but also very good at teaching (precisely timed, calm, easy to follow, fun).These lessons saved me a lot of time - without a good teacher like Shan, I would have spent months, or even years, to reach the same level.Besides, the test route was a part of my practice route.Highly recommended - from an engineer's point of view.Jayne Koth07:00 11 Jan 23I had Shane as my driving instructor and couldn't be more grateful for his patience, calm nature and encouragement throughout my driving lessons and test. I have always been an extremely nervous driver, yet he has helped build my confidence and knowledge to get my license! I can't thank him enough.Akasha walsh04:13 05 Jan 23Henry is a very patient instructor who made me feel calm and safe throughout our lessons and preparation for my driving test.

He was very professional and knowledgeable about test routes (In my warm-up, he took me on the same test route that I encountered on my drive test!). He was also very patient and supportive through all of my lessons even when I made mistakes. The same cannot be said for other driving schools I've had lessons with!Rick Preston23:56 02 Jan 23Just passed my test with Shane!

He was very knowledgeable about the Ringwood area and took me through several test routes, with pointers along the way for what to watch out for. Very educational but also very chill. I know some instructors can make you paranoid and nervous, but I felt very calm and not nervous at all during my driving test due to the preparation with Shane
