Zoe Tovey12:29 20 Feb 21Just got my P-plates on my first attempt thanks to David Rakhlin, by far the best driving instructor I have ever had. David is an exceptional teacher, patient and a great communicator. I learnt so much driving with him. His knowledge of the road rules and drive test is second to none, and he is meticulous in teaching safe driving techniques. My skills and confidence improved with every lesson I had with him. I would highly recommend David to anyone wanting to learn how to drive safely.Ben Symons23:47 18 Feb 21Got my Ps on my first try, all due to George’s incredible tuition and advice on driving. His car was always very clean and sanitised making it very enjoyable to drive, and his charming nature made him very pleasant to drive with. George’s communication and willingness to try fit in lesson for you shows his commitment to his students. The lessons set you up with good driving habits and prepare you well for the test. I recommend MDS and especially George for anyone who wants to hone their driving skills and better themselves on the road.Mut Koor04:20 03 Feb 21I was lucky enough to have Chris as an instructor. Not only was Chris an extremely kind and welcoming instructor, he has easily been the most informative and efficient instructor I've had. Prior to recieving lessons from him, I recieved 5 lessons already, however, I learnt more in 1 lesson with Chris then 5 with the previous instructor. I ended up passing my test with 100% and although I do like to credit myself most of the time, I have to admit that Chris deserved most of the credit. Customer service at the head office was also great at MDS. Thank you guys so much :)Rushil Vaghani22:41 01 Feb 21Highly recommend Jason as a driving instructor, he was extremely patient and knowledgeable of what the testing officers look for. Jason helped me get familiar with the testing routes and made me feel confident for the test, which I passed on the first go!Dale Burkitt04:13 01 Feb 21My son had Jason as his instructor.

After not having driven for 7 months I was a bit nervous of hopping in the drivers seat again, however George made me comfortable and confident always giving genuine compliments when things are done right and calm criticism so I knew where I had to improve. I highly accredit George to me passing my test and would refer him to anybody! He made driving a calm experience as if it were with a qualified family member or friend! 5/5 :)))Finn Geddes10:58 09 Jul 20Great service which helped me pass my P’s.

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.

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!

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.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.
