Jawid is a very good instructor and thanks to his guidance, I passed my driving test on the first attempt. He teaches every single road rule carefully and always focuses on safety while driving. He is very professional. I also had one lesson with his wife, Suraya, and she is very sweet and a very good instructor too. Jawid can be a bit strict sometimes, but honestly, that’s what makes him one of the best driving instructors. He makes sure his students learn properly and become safe, confident drivers. Thank you, Jawid, for your excellent service and support! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

My instructor Jawid is very professional, he is strict but it will make you learn the right way that will prepare you to be a law-abiding driver. He will teach you to make yourself safe and everyone else around you. I'm lucky he is my driving teacher he helped me not only just by passing the test but by being careful on the road and putting trust in myself to build confidence in driving.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My experience with this driving school and Jawid was incredible. Jawid taught me how to drive a manual car from start to finish. He was always flexible with times and made sure that I had plenty of experience and practice before I even took my test. As well as this Jawid himself is a kind hearted individual who truely wants the best for his students. Couldn’t be happier with this driving school and Jawid, would 100% recommend for automatic or manual driving lessons.

Frequently Asked Questions

Got questions before you book your first lesson? Here’s what Sydney learners ask us most.

Can I learn manual with a friend or family member?

Yes, if they hold a valid licence and meet your state’s supervisor rules. Combine private practice with professional lessons for the best results.

Is it harder to pass in a manual car?

It takes longer to learn, but it is not harder to pass. Once you master the clutch, you drive the same way as in an automatic.

How long does it take to pass a manual driving test?

Most learners take between six and twelve weeks, depending on how often they practise and how quickly they build confidence.

Is 10 lessons enough to pass a manual driving test?

For some people, yes. If you already know the rules of the road and have good car control, 10 lessons can be enough. Complete beginners usually need more.

How many driving lessons do I need to pass a manual test?

Most beginners need 20 to 30 lessons. Learners with some experience often need 10 to 15 lessons, and confident drivers may need only 5 to 10 hours.
