Finn Geddes10:58 09 Jul 20Great service which helped me pass my P’s. Gives excellent, precise advice, and is a very knowledgeable educator. Would highly recommend them !Hannahmt1906:45 23 Jun 20I had Betty as my instructor and she made me feel incredibly comfortable. She was always clear with instructions and what I needed to improve on.She helped me get my license even though I wasn’t able to have as smooth experience as my test was cancelled on the day due to COVID and then I was unable to have regular lessons.Betty was patient, friendly and helped me to feel confident to take my test.Cooper-lily Nikora09:36 19 Mar 20I had a fantastic instructor who was very supportive and quick to correct me in a calm manner. David Rakhlin had super easy methods for me to remember in preparation for my test - which I really appreciated! Best instructor I’ve had to date and would highly recommend for a smooth and easy pass on your drivers test. Thanks for everything David!Daniel Delaway00:51 18 Mar 20David Rakhlin was my instructor and I'm so glad that he was because I'm happily walking away with my new license! After only a few lessons due to a tight budget I learnt everything I needed to smash the test. Big thanks to the master driving school and David especially!Madeleine & Hong-Yang Lee22:37 12 Mar 20Alexandra Lee03:34 11 Mar 20George was my instructor and he was great. I passed the test on the first time. My confidence and skill levels between my first and last lesson grew so much faster compared to my first 100 hours of practice before I got lessons! Every lesson was worth it to unlearn my bad habits and remember the things that I would often make mistakes on. Thanks George!Jordan Dodds03:34 05 Mar 20Had great experience with George! after only 8 lesson I was able to pass my test THE FIRST TIME. George was really fun to drive with and was super flexible with times and appointments. thanks George!Aj Brown03:59 02 Mar 20I had Flavio as my instructor and I recommend him to others :)Aradhana Arora02:55 02 Mar 20Many thanks George for being a fantastic instructor. I would recommend George to learners.Francisco Zuccato Neto02:56 19 Feb 20Strongly recommended! David Rakhlin was my instructor and even I having my overseas driver license for more than 12 years he gave me some lifesaver tips that made me got approved on the Vic drive test. Worth each cent!Venuli03:34 11 Feb 20I had George as my driving instructor. He was very supportive. My driving experience with him was fun and very successful. He guided me through the test routes giving me great road tips. I passed my driving test on the first attempt. Highly recommend George and this driving school. Thank you George!Tim Tey00:34 25 Jan 20Words cannot even begin to describe how incredibly pleased I am with Dean after the very first driving lesson I had with him yesterday (so sorry BTW to him and you guys for not posting this yesterday, been meaning to)…based on how incredibly well it went, I could not recommend him highly enough to anyone seeking a driving instructor within Victoria’s South-Eastern suburbs. I am learning driving again from scratch, so I was nervous, but Dean put me at the utmost of ease with his incredibly nice, kind, positive and approachable yet exceptionally effective teaching methods.Dean is both a master (definitely puts the Master In Master Driving School) at driving and putting students like me at ease, going the extra mile (no pun intended) by also making friendly conversation to get to know me better and relate to me as a person, and for that and for all he did for me yesterday, I’m incredibly grateful! I’d give him 6 Stars Out of 5 Stars if possible, he was that awesome! Five more lessons to go, I’ll be sure to post for sure another super positive review after the final lesson, super looking forward to each one of them with Dean!James Frost06:41 24 Jan 20I had George as my instructor and what a legend he was! If your looking for an instructor look no further this is your man. I had 5 lessons with him and i had noticeable improvement each time. Passed my test first time with his help. Book now and get drivingJenny Cluning01:21 23 Jan 20My son Nick had done well over 120 hours of driving before we found MDS driving school. George did a number of lessons with Nick before his driving test and he was reliable, patient and so committed to helping Nick achieve a pass with confidence. My husband, Nick and I highly recommend George, he was the best driving school instructor Nick had ever had.Susie Ho12:11 21 Jan 20I had George for my driving instructor for 5 lessons and the driving test and he was super supportive and gave me very helpful tips and advice for the test. He made me feel good about driving and was able to pass on the first go! Would recommend him and this driving school very much!wonderland of paradise01:44 18 Jan 20I had Nancy for my instructor and she was absolutely lovely. Very accommodating, patient and knowledgeable. Passed my test first time. Couldn't recommend higher!Miranda Clarence10:19 08 Jan 20Nuwani Bandara07:57 08 Jan 20I have been guided exceptionally well by my instructor, Dean throughout my journey in getting my licence. He was such a patient, dedicated and a supportive instructor who always stood by me until I received my license today. Cannot express my gratitude to him in words and I’m so thankful to the MDS for providing me with the best driving instructor ever!Josie Rees04:54 08 Jan 20Just got my license with the help of George! He was so amazing in the lead up to the test, so supportive, patient and funny! So grateful for George’s help, I wouldn’t have been able to do it without him!Nathan Fox05:40 06 Jan 20Massive thankyou to Flavio for helping me pass my manual test, would highly recommend!Reilly Acabado01:39 28 Dec 19I am sadly disappointed with my driving instructor 'Soren' representing this driving school. Considering it has positive reviews. Unfortunately, after day 2, I complete did not want to contintue my lessons with that man anymore. His attitude was not up to par. He kept telling me to get an actual physical copy of a logbook despite I've told him many times you can use it on phones. He is completely clueless. He barely picks up my messages after 5 hours and I could not understand any word from him. He thinks I needed '2,000' more lessons to get it right which makes me infruriated in the inside. I did not want to critcise him because I want to do this with my own benefit but he makes it harder. It went well on day one but day two was just worse. Barely optimistic and yells at me when I did a minor mistake. I can recall one time he told me to stop in Swansea Road near Mt Evelyn and Lilydale like to a complete stop. He told me to go below the speed limit despite the fact I have been looking at the speedometer consistently by ensuring I don't go too slow or over the speed limit. His understanding is where it's at too. Honestly could not understand what he is saying. I pointed out the things he told me to point out but I didn't know what he meant in a way. I will still drone on about this driving instructor because this is unacceptable. He does not realise LogBooks are on phones now and didn't want to undergo a simple process where you can download the app and assess your Learner students. He just kept saying you need the actual physical copy! Never have I realised a driving instructor advising me 2,000 more lessons and telling me to stop in a middle of a busy road could make me confident in my driving. I even tried to learn how to park and Soreen says I'm doing it wrong. Then he just yells a lot. This man is not forgiving. Therefore I will never take lessons under a man who has a similar attitude to Soreen. Totally disappointed and totally happy I didn't pay the package because doing lessons under him is just making me stressed. Horrible!Mary Dong22:15 23 Dec 19Many Thanks to you Geroge!It Was lovely to have you as my driving coach !Thanks again !MaryRyan Yap04:30 18 Dec 19Thanks George, I passed on the first time through and I don't think I could have done it without your help, I would highly recommend him to anyone needing a driving instructorAdriana Mendieta02:46 10 Dec 19James Smith was my instructor and he was excellent. James was patient, friendly and transmitted a calm energy. He provided clear and very useful instructions. I highly recommend James.Max Simonson07:32 05 Dec 19Recently got my manual licence with James as my instructor.James always offered the perfect feedback and advice and was very supportive throughout the learning process. He’s also great at answering and explaining any questions you might have and I found him very easy to get along with.Would definitely recommend him and the Master Driving School team!Lee Ma03:56 29 Nov 19I had Kathy as my instructor. She was very patient with me all the time. I could not do reverse parallel parking before but her tips and instruction were very clear and I can easily park now. Kathy is incredible and helped me to build confidence in driving. She made me pass on the first go of the test. Thank you Kathy.Emily Xia06:49 14 Nov 19Big thank you to Nancy for helping me pass my drive test first time around. She was very clear in explaining directions, tips for parallel parking and three point turns and what will happen during the actual test. Highly recommend!Kimberley Mills11:05 13 Nov 19Have had 5 lessons with Dina and all I can say is she made me feel so comfortable and relaxed. I was terrified of driving but over the 5 lessons she has built my confidence up greatly and i couldn't be more thankful. So thank you Dina. I would highly recommend this driving school as well as Dina.joel lagastes22:37 10 Nov 19Thank you George, very helpful instructor as well as kind that helped me past my test. I would recommend for those about to do their test as their expertise will help pass your test.samplw geee22:19 30 Oct 19Cheers George, great instructorSonya Waerehu22:54 20 Oct 19Thanks George! I passed. Good communication and tips, 100% would recommend!Sarah Ameera23:20 18 Oct 19Thank you Nancy for helping me get through to the end! She has been very patient with me and I had to start learning from the basics. Cheers :)Evan Song03:20 11 Oct 19My instructor was David Rakhlin , he is very professional and patient. We were together a few months and he taught everything to be safe on the road, and to do in the test as well. I passed my drive test in the first shot!!! I recommend David to everyone who wants to get a license.Richard Lebusque04:45 03 Oct 19Can't recommend instructor David Rakhlin enough. He is not only focused on getting you to pass your test on the first attempt, but also in training you to be a vigilant and safe driver.Extremely calm and helpful, so great for anyone feeling particularly anxious about learning to drive and getting their licence.Dinika Roopani02:03 01 Oct 19David Rakhlin is a great instructor - calm and patient. He didn't just teach me how to pass the test but gave me the skills to drive confidently and safely. Highly recommend him and MDS!Natalia Fotina11:03 30 Sep 19I have passed my exam from the first time and I couldn't have been happier with the school and my driving instructor. George was patient and very helpful. Even though it was not easy for me, but he made this experience fun and successful. Thank you George!Dhan Gurung06:53 26 Sep 19I had this lady Ralene today for first ever trial class before I take package. What a disgusting class and behaviours I got from her. The way she spoke with me made me feel like I would never be able to drive. Getting fraustrated everytime I didn’t understand her instructions, made me scared on road and loose my confident level. Telling me the way I handled steering was disgusting was way too much and telling me I was too dangerous on the road. Well how am I suppose to be perfect and safe on my 1st day of lesson.i wouldn’t recommend this high tempered lady to anyone for driving lessons.Grabbing my hand when driving was very inappropriate and the smell of smoke was really disgusting.Sayaka Barter02:04 25 Sep 19Thanks George, I appreciate your help! Couldn’t have done it without you! Thanks for all the tips :DLuis Nekic23:18 23 Sep 19Thanks George for the perfect preparation. I highly recommend George as an instructor.Beth23:38 22 Sep 19I had George A and passed first time!! Thanks so much for your massive help and teaching skills Georgedingo trevillian04:31 18 Sep 19My instructor was David Rakhlin, great instructor good bloke, made me feel really confident. Just passed my test first go thanks to the lessons I did with him. He has great knowledge of the test routes and awesome tips on staying safe on the roadSweet asYu Hong03:14 16 Sep 19My experience preparing for my manual driving test with Kevin has been phenomenal and I enjoyed my lessons very much. In my short time with him he has helped me build my confidence on the road and calm my nerves very well considering the anxiety I was experiencing. He's taught me many techniques in parking and handling difficult traffic situations safely while building up my awareness on road rules. I have greatly benefited from the knowledge and insight he has imparted to me and his accommodative/understanding teaching styles makes the environment all the more conducive for learning. I would highly recommend his services to anyone looking to learn driving especially manual driving. Cheers Kevin you are the MVPLachie J13:07 15 Sep 19I would just like to thank you to Jimmy and advocate him as an instructor for anybody who is thinking about taking lessons. He is a calm and thoughtful person who makes you feel welcome from the moment you meet him. He is knowledgeable and patient and I would not have felt as comfortable as I was taking my test if not for him.Paul Collopy03:36 12 Sep 19Passed first time, great instructor and helped heaps. Thanks jimmy!Jennifer Bozhinova01:20 10 Sep 19Nancy is the best instructor. She makes sure you are perfectly prepared to take the test and pass on the first go.

He helped me become more confident driver, explained everything and I only have 5 lessons and I passed my test on the first attempt!Thank you so much Neil! I highly recommend!Celeste Marsh02:13 05 Sep 19My instructor was David Rakhlin! I had no driving history and from the very first lesson with him I felt so confident in my ability to drive on busy roads. Every lesson was Super comfortable and FUN! After 7 awesome lessons together, I have passed my drive test today!From his extensive knowledge of drive test routes and wisdom from years of driving, I can’t imagine anyone better to be teaching students. During the warm up before my test, he was very cool, calm and collected which was EXACTLY what I needed (and I’m sure others too) after the nerves caught up to me in the morning.A BIG thank you to Master Driving School and my AWESOME instructor David Rakhlin!Kristian Oberholzner04:41 03 Sep 19Thanks to Jimmy I passed first try for my license test!Ishaan Kotecha00:13 03 Sep 19I had Dean as my instructor leading up to my test. He was incredible, both patient and thorough and really took the time to properly help me feel confident driving. He properly tailored his teaching to help my driving become more fluent, building upon each lesson in a methodical way. Further, he was a really nice person to converse with which made the experience that much more personal and enjoyable! Thanks Dean ☺️Ellena Leona12:00 27 Aug 19I had a great experience with Neil! He is really professional, patient and a knowledgeable driving instructor. He explained the rules along the way and got me used to driving in different road conditions. I two lessons from him and I passed my test on the first attempt! I highly recommend him. Thank you Neil!
