Central Adelaide Driving: Reviews
Fantastic experience: Betty Jane has been the best driving instructor ever!! From the very first lesson she made me feel very comfortable. She is always on time, easy going, very patient and always positive!! I also loved to drive her car!! I will definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a driving instructor.
Thanks hasssiba, enjoyed our lessons. Take car of yourself and that beautiful daughter of yours!
Fantastic experience: Betty has been an amazing driving instructor. She was really supportive and never pressured me to take my driving test (CBTA) on a set date. Instead, she encouraged me to wait until I felt confident and ready. Her patience and understanding made learning to drive a lot less stressful. She always stayed calm and gave clear guidance, which helped me build my skills at my own pace. I’m really grateful for her support! NOW I GOT MY Ps!!!
Fantastic experience: I can't recommend Betty enough! After failing VORT twice, I was starting to lose hope, but Betty’s approach changed everything. She doesn’t just tell you what to do; she digs deep to find the underlying causes of your struggles and helps you truly understand how to correct them. I felt very safe learning with her and really enjoyed every session. Her teaching style is thoughtful, supportive, and incredibly effective. Betty is a true legend, and I’m so grateful for her guidance in helping me succeed!!!
Fantastic experience: I would just like to say that the other reviews aren’t exaggerating, betty is an extremely kind, patient, and empathetic individual. not only is she a phenomenal instructor, she’s a lovely person with a good heart. in every lesson, betty has a clear goal for the driver and you learn something new, so no lesson goes to waste. she is also very knowledgeable and she takes measures to ensure that you understand what’s being taught. when you make a mistake she doesn’t berate you about it, instead she calmly tells you how to avoid the mistake in the future. I’ve had so many instructors in the past and they can all learn something from betty. it sounds crazy but I’m actually going to miss having lessons with her because she made them so enjoyable. if you want an amazing instructor who not only teaches you lifelong lessons, but also makes you feel accomplished, consider betty :)
Ow Zena, this is so nice of you to write. Hit me in the feels, I sent it to mum and dad ahah. You did so well and worked so hard you deserved it! Thank you so much.
Fantastic experience: Best driving instructor in Adelaide! Betty has been amazing to work with getting my Ps and I felt comfortable and at ease throughout all my lessons and test. She really cares for her clients and goes the extra mile! If you have anxiety about learning to drive or have been putting it off for years (like I was) she is who to call :)
Fantastic experience: Betty has been the Driving Instructor for both our teens. She is a wonderful Instructor who is trustworthy, reliable and patient. Easy central location for lessons. Highly recommend Betty.
Fantastic experience: I finally have my full license! Thanks to Betty who has been a great driving instructor! I have been with different instructor before meeting Betty and honestly Betty was the best out of them all. She is very knowledgeable and calm when giving instructions. I don’t get nervous or intimidated as she assess every situation very calmly. She gives me more confidence in my driving. I highly recommend Betty to anyone who is doing CBT&A. Thanks again for your time and patience. Take care! -Nat
Thanks Nat. Was a pleasure working with you. Also the best in 'your cute Picanto'!
Fantastic experience: Yesterday I completed my CBT&A with Betty. In the 12 months I've been learning to drive, I've had lessons with 4 different paid instructors from different schools. They've all been good, but Betty was the best. She has a great gift for explaining in detail without belabouring points. She's friendly, calm and kind in a way that instils confidence. Loved her work.
Thank you for your feedback Alexa, greatly appreciated. Glad you found the 5-day course met your needs. All the best.

I recently completed my CBT&A driving lessons with Betty, and I cannot express enough how impressed I am with her professionalism and expertise. Betty's lessons are meticulously structured, providing a comprehensive and thorough understanding of the key components of driving. What sets Betty apart is her calm and clear communication style. She patiently explains complex concepts, ensuring that I fully grasp each aspect of driving. Her approach fosters a comfortable and stress-free learning environment, making the entire process enjoyable and effective. Betty's knowledge of driving is extensive, and she imparts it with enthusiasm and dedication. Her commitment to ensuring her students become safe and confident drivers is evident in every lesson. I now feel well-prepared and equipped to navigate the roads with confidence, thanks to Betty's guidance. I highly recommend Betty as a CBT&A driving instructor to anyone seeking a top-notch learning experience. Thank you, Betty, for your exceptional instruction and for instilling in me the skills and confidence needed to become a safe and responsible driver!

Fantastic experience: Super patient and friendly instructor. Gave me all the tips needed to know how to drive properly in australia.
Thank you Priscilla :)
Fantastic experience: I’m so happy with my experience with Central Adelaide Driving! Betty was an amazing instructor, she explained rules and manoeuvres calmly and clearly and helped me to feel really well prepared for the VORT. I cannot recommend her highly enough, an absolute gem!
Fantastic experience: Betty was an excellent instructor. Clear, calm, friendly and in particular encourages me to focus on what's in front of me whilst driving without overcomplicating/ talking over past mistakes. If there were any concerns/ questions we would have an opportunity to discuss after stopping at intervals. Betty is extraordinary at helping if unsure or unconfident about driving on the road. Prepared me well for the VORT test and passed it at my first go, her quality instruction is highly commendable!
Fantastic experience: Betty’s patient and calm approach was exactly what I needed. Very helpful and supportive from the beginning and prepared me well for the VORT in a few lessons. Highly recommended!
Fantastic experience: I'm really content with the service provided. My overseas licence was about to expire, and I needed the Australian one. Regardless of my many years of experience, Betty helped me to identify my weaknesses as a driver, pointed out tips and helped me to be safer driver behind the wheels. Thanks to all above I passed the test.
Thanks Alejandro!!
Fantastic experience: Betty is very professional and everything I need to learn to be a responsible and safe driving I learned it to Her. I'm very happy that I found Central Driving School.

Fantastic experience: I did go through CBT&A with Betty. My first language isn't English and I never drove before I started course so I was a bit scared but Betty helped with so well and make me feel no pressure at all. Thanks to her I was able to get my P which I can't even dream about before lol she is miracle worker
Tha m You Kelly, you did great. All the best with the new job
Fantastic experience: Both of my kids were lucky enough to have Betty Jane as their instructor. She has the ability to relate and bring out the best in her students. One of the best!
Thanks Jenny! All the best for your boys and thanks for the referrals :)
Fantastic experience: I couldn't have passed my driving test without Betty. I was a complete beginner at and very scared of driving. But Betty made me feel safe and taught me in a way that other driving instructors had not ( I was in tears with two other instructors and close to giving up). She was patient and extremely thorough in her teaching. She made sure I knew what I was doing when it came to driving. She gave me the confidence I needed to continue driving. I highly recommend Betty to anyone interested in learning to drive, especially if you are a complete novice like I was. You will be in a safe, patient and knowledgeable environment with her.
Thanks is so much Nisha, all the best with the hills move, having your license will make it much easier!
Fantastic experience: Rating:10 stars⭐!!! I cleared my VORT at the first attempt! And it is only because I had Betty as my instructor. I have had bad experiences before I met her, but she is just what any person desiring to be a confident driver has to meet. She understood my needs, she gave me confidence, she was very patient with me during every class, and she believed in me most of the times when I did not believe in myself. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who would ask me for driving instructor recommendations! Thank you Betty, it was wonderful being your student
Fantastic experience: Betty Jane is a great driving instructor! She is friendly and very knowledgable and i felt comfortable whilst learning. The lessons i had with her helped me to gain confidence in my driving ability and pass the VORT! Highly recommend :)
Fantastic experience: I did the VORT with Betty. She is very good in teaching you the rules; perfect explanations. She makes sure you'll be a confident driver (knowing how to drive and follow the rules) which is the key to pass the TEST. Highly recommend!
Thank Omid, was great meeting you. All the best with your scholarship, great to see such a hard worker!
Fantastic experience: Very precise instructions and suggestions for correcting my mistakes and improve my driving. Betty was a pleasure to work with , great instructor, would recommend 10/10.
Thank you, Jash. Hope you enjoy your well-deserved holiday!
Fantastic experience: I can not rave more highly about Betty Jane's exceptional teaching method. She is calm, precise, has a wealth of knowledge and explains things in a way that makes sense and sticks. I adored having lessons with her and feel I am a great defensive driver on the road now, due to the things she taught me. I passed my Ps under her guidance and could not be more grateful for all help and guidance. A better driving instructor, you will not find 6 stars!
Thank you Anelis! It was a pleasure. Hope you've got to those hidden away walking tracks by now :)
Fantastic experience: I passed my VORT test a few days ago, first try. I wouldn't have had the confidence without the help from Betty. She is an absolutely amazing driving instructor, so friendly and I felt so confident driving with her. Never failed to have a good conversation either. I would definitely recommend Betty. Thank you so much :)

Thank you for your kind review Bao. All the best :)
Fantastic experience: Just passed my driving exam after my sessions with Betty. I moved from the Middle East where all our driving rules are different of Australia’s. Betty comforted me since I had to re-learn all the driving techniques. She was friendly, kind and very informative. She also explained things to me the way I personally comprehend, and accommodated my way of learning. I couldn’t recommend her highly enough!
Thanks Natalie all the best for you and your family in Adeiade :)
Fantastic experience: Betty is the best ! She really is. I needed someone to help me pass the VORT so I had tried two different RAA instructors, they were both awful, and always trying to increase the amount of lessons I needed. It was so frustrating I quit them. I found Betty through a friend and couldn’t be happier. She is lovely and explains everything succinctly in a patient and easy to understand manner. She told me upfront roughly how many lessons I needed and we stuck to that and I passed the VORT on the first try. Highly Recommend !!!
Thanks so much Vanessa, don’t know if I’m the best but I’ll wear that hat ;)! It was all you you worked hard and got great results! Drive safe :)
Fantastic experience: Betty was an absolutely amazing driving instructor. After experiencing some very unqulified training by a different driving company, In just 3 lessons Betty was able to re-teach all the required driving skills for the test and many tips and advice to being the best driver on the road. With Betty’s help, I passed the VORT Test on my first go. Her constantly positive presence made me feel extremely comfortable in the car. Thank you Betty for all your hard work.
Thanks Jacint, you’re a star! You did really well :)
Fantastic experience: Betty was fantastic. She is very friendly and a great instructor with clear and easy approach also very focused in her job. Passed the VORT test from the first go. Definitely recommend her anytime. Thanks Betty

Fantastic experience: Betty Jane was fantastic! My daughter felt completely comfortable with her. Betty Jane knows her stuff, is always on time and very thorough with her teaching. We recommend highly.
Thanks Cathie and Lara. Was my pleasure
Fantastic experience: I dealt with two instructors in Adelaide prior to Betty Jane. She is by far the best I came accross, hands down. If you hire her to teach you the Australian traffic regulations and way of driving then you'd be maximising your chances of passing from the first time. Stop over thinking and call her.
Thanks for your kind words!
Fantastic experience: Betty Jane is an incredible instructor who helped me to refine my driving skills and pass my VORT with flying colours. Have been and will be recommending her to family and friends.
Was awesome meeting you solomon. All the best in year 12!

Thanks James All the best with the new careeer path

Thanks Will Drive safe
Fantastic experience: Betty is a fantastic instructor. She makes you feel most comfortable during driving sessions. She is very caring, listening and having attention to details.

Thank you Jan. Well done on passing your VORT today. Was a pleasure to meet you.

She is easy to contact and on time. I passed my VORT yesterday and I credit it to Betty's training. I would recommend her to everyone!!!!
Thank you Alicia, was a pleasure!! All the best :)
Fantastic experience: Helped pass my Vort in 3 lessons. Would highly recommend. Good, clear and friendly instruction and will help you drive to the government standard which is needed to pass.
Thank you Ben. You did such a great job. All the best in year 12
Fantastic experience: Betty is an exceptional instructor and her pricing is the best available (I searched through many exploitive companies). Her manner and energy is clear, compassionate, patient and thorough. I always knew exactly what I had to work on and she steered me confidently into the VORT without any undue expense. I would and have recommended her to many and anyone interested in being navigated with skill and care into the world of driving independently. She was Great. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thanks heaps Daimon, enjoy your new Merc ☮️
Fantastic experience: I needed a driving transfer from overseas. I thought the exam was easy but failed. There are special driving tips and rules that the only way u will learn them is with a patient teacher like Betty. Australia has plenty of rules that are not self evident. So if u have been driving for decades and need a transfer from overseas and u think u will pass the exam without classes u will hit a wall lik I did. Without hesitating I recommend her. She is patient and very helpful.
Thank you for taking the time to review Alfonso. All the best with your new business in Adelaide.

Fantastic experience: Betty is an excellent instructor. Very patient and definitely understands each student is unique and constantly thinks of ways to help students as per their understanding.
