Same-Day Booking

Booked the Lesson + Test package with Nazrul and passed first go at Bayswater. The pre-test warm-up made a huge difference and the car felt familiar on test day. Worth every dollar.
Why choose a package over single lessons
Booking a package locks in your accredited driving instructor in Mitcham across the weeks leading up to your VicRoads test and reserves time slots in advance, which matters in the busy lead-up to test day.
We recommend booking one lesson per week, with the package time blocks reserved across the next several weeks so you build steady, supervised practice between sessions.
Lesson + Test and Test Only packages remove the stress of organising a separate vehicle on the day, since you arrive in the car you have already learned in.
Free pickup is included in every package across Mitcham and adjacent suburbs.
Our Driving Instructors
The vehicle and your instructor
Lessons run in a modern dual-controlled automatic or manual transmission car. Every vehicle has a secondary brake and clutch for safe instructor intervention.
Your lessons are delivered by a VicRoads-accredited driving instructor with current Victorian Driving Instructors Association membership.
You can request a specific trainer subject to availability, and most learners book the same instructor across their entire package.
VicRoads test preparation
The Lesson + Test package directly prepares candidates for the VicRoads practical driving test with a 60-minute pre-test warm-up before the test begins.
We collect you an hour before your test start time, run through the manoeuvres and route knowledge you have practiced across your earlier lessons, then hand you the keys for the test itself.
Most of our learners book Lesson + Test at the Bayswater and Burwood East test centres. For a fuller breakdown of the driving lesson services we offer in Mitcham, see our services overview.

Who lesson packages are suitable for
Driving lesson packages suit new VicRoads learner permit holders building hours toward the VicRoads test, drivers with an automatic-only Victorian licence converting to manual, and licence holders returning to driving after a long break.

New Learner Permit Holders
You hold a Victorian learner permit and need structured tuition to build hours and skill toward your test.
Auto-to-Manual Converters
You already have an automatic-only Victorian licence and want a full unrestricted licence covering manual vehicles.
Refresher Drivers
You hold a full licence but have not driven for a while and want supervised practice before getting back on the road.
Common questions about our packages
Most learners need between fifteen and twenty driving lessons before booking the VicRoads test, with the exact number depending on prior experience and how much supervised practice you do between lessons.
