Driving Lessons

John's Driving School offers driving lessons for drivers of all levels of ability across southern Perth. From Fremantle to Coogee, across to Cockburn Central, Booragoon, Bicton and all surrounding suburbs.

We are also available to assist with mandatory age retests for those aged 70 or over, regaining a licence after a period of exclusion from driving, and even confidence boosting for anyone that feels that they would like a lesson or two.

For many, obtaining a provisional licence is a daunting prospect beset with many challenges. At John's Driving School we will assist you at every step of the way, from the first step of helping you acquire your learner's permit, to teaching you how to control and drive a car to pass the Hazard Perception Test, logging your 50 hours of supervised driving, and eventually passing the Practical Driving Assessment.

We understand exactly how nervous novice drivers can be, so our lessons are tailored to suit your particular needs, allowing you to grow in confidence on quiet streets before you find yourself in busy traffic situations.

Preparations for the PDA is thorough and we'll ensure that you are competent in the required field called, Left Something Behind, which will be explained when we begin.

Once you have acquired the necessary skills to demonstrate that you can identify and respond to driving hazards on the road, you will then be ready for the test.

When you need a driving school that can deliver success, give John's Driving School a call on 0417770230. With over 30 years’ experience, we can help.

I am a matured aged driver that had put off learning to drive. John gave me the confidence I needed and knew I was ready to pass the test even when I didn't think so. He is very familiar with the testing area and is thorough in teaching the tips and tricks needed to pass the PDA, but beyond that to be a safe and responsible driver. Thank you, John :)

“My son was in need of help to obtain his licence - 2nd attempt. He needed someone professional who was able to polish up his much needed driving skills.. He needed lots of work.
I found John, John’s Driving School. With a handful of lessons prior to his PDA building his skills to become a proficient & confident driver, he passed!
Thankyou so much John.
Lachie & I will always be grateful for your good guidance and professionalism.
Highly Recommend John. “

Couldn't recommend John enough! I've had 2 previous instructors for driving lessons and had multiple failed tests - but after taking lessons with John, I passed the PDA this morning with no faults at all. John has an impressive amount of knowledge and experience with the road, and teaches in a very effective manner. Thanks again John!

5 stars no doubt! Failed my test two times for a automatic license. Took lessons with John and passed my manual on the first!

I'm not the calmest or easiest to be patient with, I've had a lousy experience with a previous driving school & have used every excuse possible not to get my licence. I'm so grateful for the way that John adapted to my personality and pushed me to get it right. I'm mostly impressed that if you're not ready then he'll make you wait for your test. I don't know about you there but I prefer honest, fair feedback and clear guidance from a instructor. I wouldn't have gained this confidence without him.

John was the first instructor i learnt from and i wasn't too sure what to expect. However, he quickly developed my driving skills and i felt competent after having a few lessons. He was very patient and really knows what to expect from a driving test. Everything we covered was in my test and he knows the areas he drives in well. I have even recommended him to several of my friends in the area. Cheap rates, good times and very flexible. All i have left to say is thanks! it was a pleasure learning from you. -JB
