Take the Wheel Driving School, an owner/operator company based in Noranda, are here to help you reach your goal of passing your Manual Practical Driving Assessment (PDA). Take the Wheel is operated by Michael Brittain, a Certificate IV & Keys 2 Drive Qualified Driving Instructor. This is the highest level of instruction currently available. Michael believes that students should be encouraged to learn to drive a manual car as this will give them a far greater scope to drive all types of vehicles in years to come. He also believes this discourages the practice of "Texting & Driving", a real problem in our society now. Learning to drive a manual car allows you to really be "in tune" or at one with your car. Dual control provides confidence.

Take the Wheel Driving School: Reviews
Fantastic experience: Best driving instructor in all of perth. He’s mad good. Make sure u use him!
Fantastic experience: Michael got me through my license upgrade with no fuss at all. A professional teacher full of patience who clearly cares about his students and wants to instill in them true confidence as well as skill.
Positive experience: Michael was patient with me too - the learner’s parent. Always happy to spend 5 minutes talking to me about my son’s progress & giving tips on what to practice with him. Thx!
Fantastic experience: Micheal was really nice and a great instructor and I passed my test first go I highly recommend him
Fantastic experience: My sister's partner recommended me and was so happy with the results. he made things easy got me confident behind the wheel after the first lesson and found a test for me quickly! wish i could give more stars already recommending him to friends and family.
Fantastic experience: We cannot recommend Michael highly enough! He is a fantastic instructor with such a calm nature and professional manner. Passed on the first attempt!! Thanks Michael.
Fantastic experience: Take the wheel driving school i would highly recommend! Great instructor teaching you the basics on how to drive in many situations and very friendly. When it came to test day, it was a great success with acing it! Can’t wait to get behind the wheel and drive myself. Thanks Mike.
Negative experience: Reply update: Golly! That is a lot of words to say you can't take responsibility for your own actions. Excellent driving instructor for Perth conditions. If you need someone to teach you: How to do 10 under in the right lane How to brake check a car when they high beam you for going slow And how to speed up to the limit when someone tries to overtake Then take the wheel driving is the school for you!
Hello Ray, thank you for your incredibly one sided & unfactual review, Keyboard Warriors like you are always quick to back up their stupid actions with BS. You forgot to mention that the reason I was driving at 50 kilometres per hour in a 60 zone was the fact that I was slowing down in eavy traffic to allow the car in front of me to make a right hand turn into their driveway. The fact that you almost ran into the back of my car was down to you wanting to speed through this section of road. Then you decided it would be a great idea to honk & flash your headlights repeatedly to try & force me to speed. I continued to travel at 60 kms per hour in the 60 zone & then slowed down to 40 in the 40 zone, much to your disgust when you flashed & honked me again. You may think it's ok to drive above the speed limit & tailgate other drivers, I don't. Maybe you should look at your own driving habits & actions before you criticise others, on several occasions you nearly ran into the back of my car due to your aggresive driving. Not sure if you had your family in the car when you nearly hit me but if you did it would have been a bad situation for you. Have a nice night & continue having fun writing BS reviews for people you don't know, I think the 160 or so students who have written reviews before you will vouch for the fact that you are full of BS!

Fantastic experience: Michael from Take The Wheel Driving School has been hands down one of the best instructors I had ever had. Not only he makes you feel comfortable in pressuring times but can really be someone you can also call a friend. I had recently passed my manual PDA and without Michael's help I would not be able to get my license at all. Prices are 100% worth paying to have him.

Well done Hamish. You did a great job with your driving test & passing first go in a manual car was a fantastic result. Enjoy driving your car now.
Fantastic experience: I wanted to let other parents of teenagers learning to drive know, how fantastic Michael is. My daughter was confident heading up to her Driving Test but would not have passed without Michael's instruction on the finer points that the Instructors would be looking out for. This required her to have a few lessons. Michael is easy to talk to and has a protective and caring manner towards his clients, which made my daughter feel relaxed and at ease. Thank you Michael! We passed first go! :)
Thanks Monique, it was great working with Tia & it was no surprise that she passed her manual licence first go. Congratulations Tia
Fantastic experience: I was referred to Michael by some fellow driving instructors. I had already obtained a full automatic license but had recently purchased a manual car for a great deal. Having a manual car but not being able to drive it was frustrating so when I reached out to Michael for some lessons he made the process of learning manual very simple, and communicated the important aspects of driving manual clearly and easily. Doing a combination of lessons and sitting the regional PDA with Mike really fast-tracked the process of learning to drive a manual car. I’m stoked to be on the roads now and driving a manual car, which once seemed quite daunting, is now pretty fun. Would highly recommend Mike to teach you the fundamentals of driving a manual car.
Thanks Jonathan, I really appreciate your feedback. It was great working with you & I am so pleased that you are now able to enjoy driving your manual car. Enjoy your driving & congratulations.
Fantastic experience: My son had several driving lessons with another driving school and tried a number of times to pass his driving test. My son's school friend recommended we try Michael for lessons. I gave Michael a call and he took him out for his first lesson. Michael found that my son was a competent driver and just needed some encouragement to get his confidence up. Michael was very understanding and indicated that we didn't need to pay for many more lessons as he was already a competent driver. I insisted on my son doing a couple more lessons after which he took the test and passed. I cannot recommend Michael highly enough. If it wasn't for his encouragement my son wouldn't be driving today.
Thanks Michael, I really appreciate your response & I really enjoyed working with Joe. He is one of those kids who got knocked down a couple of times but got back up & kept trying. I knew he. would pass at his first manual attempt with me. Well done Joe!
Fantastic experience: We found Michael to be very honest, he suggested that our son only needed a few lessons and gave him lots of advice and support to pass his test, which he did first time. I would recommend Michael to anybody who wants to pass their test and have quality honest driving lessons. Thank you Michael
Thanks Ian, Harvey was one of those students who took to driving like a duck to water. There was never any doubt in my mind that he would pass first go in a manual car.
Fantastic experience: Michael is a fantastic driving instructor who helped my very anxious son pass his driving test on his first go with him. I cannot rate Michael highly enough for assisting students who find it stressful taking driving tests. I am very glad that he was recommended to me.
Thanks Heather, I really enjoyed watching Evan change from nervous to positive about his driving test. I knew that he could do it with a little help. Well done Evan.
Fantastic experience: My son Jackson had 5 lessons with Michael that I highly recommend. Jacko had the basics of driving down pat but needed the finer elements looked at. I was really impressed with the way Michael communicated with Jackson and parents and let all parties know where he was at . Booking was made really easy even though Michael was super busy he seemed to make time . Jacko passed on his first go all because of Michaels excellent training and making things as comfortable as possible for the learner . I would thoughrorly recommend Take The Wheel Driving to anyone Cheers Joe
Thanks Joe, Jacko drove really well and it was no surprise that he passed first attempt in a manual car.
Fantastic experience: Michael is a very good instructor and my daughter gained confidence with just a few lessons with him and also passed her test at the first go. Would have no hesitation in recommending Michael
Thanks Ranjit, it was great working with Anika. I am very proud of her efforts in passing first time in a manual car.
Fantastic experience: Many thanks to Michael for refining my daughters manual driving skills. She is now a cheerful, confident road user who can tackle any road situation. She spoke very highly of his relaxed friendly teaching approach, something often lacking in her dad’s method. This is my second child to have passed their drivers test after receiving lessons from Michael so I have no hesitation in recommending Take the Wheel to anyone seeking professional driving lessons.
Thanks John, I appreciate your support & the opportunity to work with Amelie. She did a great job passing her manual test.
