Roadworks Driver Training: Reviews
Positive experience: Great learning experience. Helped me greatly in preparation for the test
Good work Pat.
Fantastic experience: Irene and Glen were absolutely fantastic in helping me upgrade to a manual license - they were able to fit me in for many last minute lessons prior to completing my test, and it was a very supportive learning environment. Would recommend to anyone learning to drive!
Fantastic experience: My twin boys learnt to drive a manual vehicle with Roadworks. They mainly learnt with Irene for majority of their lessons (They had 5 lesson each). The boys learnt lots and took on any advice Irene would give. They both have now successful passed their driving test first go. I have two very happy boys. Highly recommend Roadworks, especially if you are in the Camp Hill/Coorparoo Area.
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend plus Glenn’s a legend
Congrats Sam.
Fantastic experience: I would love to thank Glenn on his meticulous and very helpful driver training. Would definitely recommend.
Congratulations Adi
Fantastic experience: Our thanks and gratitude to Glenn for his patience and expertise in not only successfully guiding our number 3 child to driver success but all three of our children over the past few years. Thank you for teaching them to respect the roads and others on it as well as being great drivers themselves. Best wishes for your ongoing success in driver training.
Thank you Catherine. Happy to share the responsibility of training your children.
Fantastic experience: I successfully transferred my overseas licence. And I have to say if not Glenn I would have failed the test for sure. My advice for 'experienced' overseas drivers licence holders is to be humble and take a couple of lessons here. Great job!
Well done Tim

Fantastic experience: ✨Excellent Driving School with Amazing Instructor✨ Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I highly recommend this driving school to all learners! My experience with Glenn, the instructor, was absolutely fantastic. He displayed exceptional patience and a wealth of experience throughout my lessons. English is not my first language, but Glenn was incredibly understanding and took the time to help me understand various aspects of driving on the road. What I appreciated most about Glenn was his specificity in each lesson. He ensured that we made the most of our time together, focusing on the essential skills and techniques without any wasted effort. In fact, during my fourth lesson, he even accompanied me to the test on the day. His honesty and encouragement were instrumental in giving me the confidence to book the test. Thanks to Glenn's guidance and expertise, I successfully passed my manual car driving test on the first attempt! If you're preparing for a practical driving test, I highly recommend investing a little extra money to learn from experienced instructors like Glenn. It truly makes a difference in your confidence, skills, and overall success—not just for the test but for a lifetime of safe driving. Once again, a huge thank you to Glenn for his invaluable support and knowledge. I couldn't have done it without him!❤️❤️❤️

Fantastic experience: Thanks to Glenn who provided great instruction to both my girls.
Negative experience: I reached out to Glenn at Roadworks Driving on behalf of my fiancé who was recently given the medically all clear to get his Learners. I wanted him to have a really positive experience as it was such an exciting time to get his license after we thought it would never happen for him. After reading so many positive reviews I thought Glenn would be fantastic but after 2 lessons my fiancé feels incredibly deflated. He does not want another lesson as Glenn spent most of the lesson on his phone texting, spoke rudely and did not give one word of encouragement or positivity. I am so disappointed and wish we could have had the positive experience that the rest of these reviews seemed to have.
Fantastic experience: Great service and patience helping me to iron out many mistakes and errors, thanks again.
Great drive today.
Fantastic experience: I got my manual license on my first try and Glenn was very patient with me and honest. Highly recommend

Fantastic experience: I genuinely looked forward to my driving lessons with Glen as he is an incredibly down to earth individual. Without a doubt he never failed to make me laugh, which in turn assisted in the overthinking and nerves that can come with being on the road. It was a comfortable environment in which there was no judgement if I were to make an error, instead he uplifted my spirits and encouraged me to persevere until I mastered the set of skills and techniques that was required. Ultimately, cultivating the skills and the confidence to be able to drive without doubting myself. Forever grateful, as he is the reason as to why I passed my practical test in the first attempt.

Fantastic experience: Glenn is a great driving instructor who prepared me for my test excellently. I couldn't have asked for a better driving instructor!
Fantastic experience: I definitely recommend this driving school. I’m living in the CBD, didn’t have a car before getting my licence, got 15 lessons with Glenn (with no additional practice) and passed the driving test. Glenn explains very details when teaching you how to drive and answers all questions you have. I felt safe and confident learning to drive with him. The only thing I did not like about this school was...no lessons on Sunday and Public Holidays (to be fair, I think this is a good rule for staff working there!!)
Fantastic experience: Glenn was a great instructor who definitely helped me overcome my anxiety surrounding getting my drivers licence. He is very attentive, gives great feedback and tips. The mock tests were great at preparing for the test as well. Would not have passed without his great teaching!
Well done Megan. Stay safe.
Fantastic experience: Glenn gave me the confidence I needed in order to successfully complete my driving exam on the first attempt. Would highly recommend.
Fantastic experience: Got my QLD driving license on the first test!! Old habits are hard to break and to relearn driving in a different country at a senior age, is not an easy feat. Glenn was able to help me get over the hurdle and kuddos to him for being a very professional and patient teacher. Thanks Glenn!
Fantastic experience: Helped both me and my brother pass our driving tests. Managed to teach me all the tricks of driving plus including everything on the practical driving test which meant no surprises arose when it came to the test.

Thanks Tanita. Good luck and safe driving
Fantastic experience: Glenn shows you can teach an old dog new tricks by teaching me in my fifties to get my licence first go. Thanks Glenn for your patience and wisdom.
Fantastic experience: I have always been quite anxious about driving and not the most natural at it, but through his calm, patient and expert instruction, Glenn vastly improved my skills and knowledge the the point where I was able to pass my test on the first try!
Well done Rhiannon.
Fantastic experience: I was very anxious to start driving with a driving school but after hearing all the positive experiences others had encountered with Glenn, I decided to give Roadworks Driver Training a shot. It was so worth it! I went into the lessons with no intention of ever driving a manual car, but Glenn encouraged me to give it a try, now here I am with a manual licence! Glenn was always calm and pushed me outside my comfort zone in order to shape me into a better driver. Glenn always gave clear directions and taught all manoeuvres very effectively with little tricks to help you remember. Thank you for everything Glenn! I would definitely recommend Roadworks Driver Training to anyone learning to drive!
Glad you pushed yourself to succeed in the manual.
Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Roadworks Driving School! Great and really helpful instructors! Glenn is the best instructor!

Fantastic experience: I'm 50 years old and English is my second language. I began as an extremely nervous driver with a lack of confidence. However, this all changed when I met Glenn. I am so grateful to have been able to have such an understanding instructor like Glenn who encouraged me all the way. What I thought I could never achieve, Glenn helped make my dreams become a reality. Now with his help I have passed my driving test on my first time and have my P plates. He has guided my driving skills to aide me in becoming a safe and respectful road user. Thank you Glenn for all your support and believing I could do it all along!
Fantastic experience: Glenn is an excellent driving instructor. He is calm, patient and very adept at teaching the skills and understanding required to become a proficient driver. His driving lessons were always just challenging enough to push me outside my comfort zone and ensure that I was constantly developing as a driver but not so difficult that I felt frustrated or out of my depths. I could not have asked for a better instructor, and I feel the skills I learned with Glenn have set me up to be a safe and conscientious driver for life.
