Fantastic experience: Ivy was an amazing teacher - our daughter was determined to learn manual and Ivy taught this really well in the beginning and got her ready for her test in Carlton so she passed first time with flying colours - thank you Ivy
Fantastic experience: Ivy was an amazing teacher, she helped me with my Nerves before the test and even during lessons took time to explain different tricks and ways to not stall the car.
Fantastic experience: I had the best time with Jacqui as an instructor. She was a great calming presence to have in the passenger seat and gave me plenty of opportunities to learn from my mistakes. She taught me great observation skills and I was able to pass my test with in 3 months of driving with her. Highly recommend Jacqui if you're a nervous driver, you're in great hands! I also had 2 or 3 lessons with Ivy, she was incredibly helpful and in my short lessons with her I feel like she was able to make me feel more confident in looking for hazards on the road and even taught me a trick to reverse parallel parking that I will use forever. Just an amazing service and they were able to fit my weird schedule, nothing was too hard for Ivy and the team.
Fantastic experience: I started taking driving lessons from Ivy back in mid February. I hadn't driven in around one year and a half, and I felt so anxious and scared about driving again. Even so, I had a goal of getting my licence so then I could more easily travel around Melbourne. On May 16th, Ivy helped make that dream come true! She is a very honest and kind person, who helped me to put my nerves aside so than I could become a great driver. I feel so confident now driving in a Manuel car and I will recommend her to everyone I know!!
Fantastic experience: Thank you Ivy! Thrilled to have passed my test first time thanks to Ivy's patient and diligent tuition. She breaks safe driving down into a set of discrete skills and adapts each to the student to make sure they really lock it all in. I feel like I have the best possible foundation to keep building my skills through my Ps and beyond.
Fantastic experience: Excellent

I had some problems while driving that would have caused me to fail my driving test and Ivy worked on each of those to make sure I was ready for my test and she couldn’t have don’t it better, I have now effortlessly passed my driving test, thank you Ivy.

Fantastic experience: The team were all super helpful and supportive! They go through the structure of the test and show you some of the routes depending on where your test location is. Good communication and organisation. Passed first try thanks to them
Fantastic experience: After trying so many different driving schools, I was immensely happy with Aust Asian Driving School and my instructor Jacqueline. Such a calm, helpful and informative instructor, she really put me at ease so I could pass my test. Booking in appointments was easy, communication was great. Worth the money, book in with these guys!
Fantastic experience: Today I passed my drivers test ! (which was manual) I couldn’t thank Ivy enough. For anyone looking for driving lessons, I highly recommend Ivy as a driving instructor ! I had Ivy as my driving instructor, she has taught me so many things and it has truly been an amazing experience. When first starting out how to drive manual, I was very nervous. Not only because I didn’t have much driving experience prior, but also because I had road anxiety and manual was a lot more different compared to automatic. Nevertheless, Ivy was an amazing teacher and coach. Guiding me through things, with her expertise and knowledge. She explains things very well and into detail, to make things easier to understand. (Such as explaining that the peddles are like see-saws, something I’ll never forget) She is very patient as well as supportive, and she is always giving phrase when doing something well. Or giving back feedback on something that could be worked on or executed differently. Ivy is fun to talk to as well, during my driving lessons and at a later stage I felt comfortable enough to talk to her and converse, getting to know her which was awesome. Whereas when I first started I found it difficult to talk as I was focusing very hard haha. Ivy has a lot of knowledge on the testing routes as well ! Which definitely helped and put me at ease as we continued out driving lessons, it helped me become familiar with the area as well as be able to think ahead whilst driving. (Such as when I need to merge lanes) Today I passed my drivers test, I couldn’t be happier. It was hard to stop smiling upon hearing the results of my test, thank you Ivy !
Fantastic experience: I had instructor Ivy before my Automatic Probationary test drive and instructor Jacqueline for the first 5 weeks. For context I haven't driven in over three years and was still on my Learners license. Jacqueline helped with the basics of car control and road rules. The two lessons before my test drive I had Ivy, she immediately picked up on errors that I needed to fix before the test drive which were all resolved before the test. Ivy provides really clear and concise instructions which allowed me to immediately apply into the same driving lesson. She helped me work on all the key points of improvement I needed to focus on to pass the test, she emphasised on the need for head checks and making sure my breaking and accelerating was smooth and didn't stutter, her method for parallel reverse parking was much easier to apply which easily helped me pass the requirement for the drive test. On the day of the drive test I was really really nervous and it was obvious when I was picked up for my last lesson before the test, decision making was off in the first half of the lesson but Ivy gave me confidence which allowed me to pass the test later on. Though it was only two lessons with Ivy she taught me very valuable tips for driving and gave me a good experience whilst driving with her! Will definitely recommend Ivy as an instructor for any friends or colleagues looking to pass their drive test!
Fantastic experience: Firstly, I had 1 driving lesson with an instructor from a driving school in sunbury, that was so terrible, he kept having a go at me, and made it difficult for me to learn how to drive a manual. Then I met Ivy, from Aust Asian Driving School. Ivy was an unbelievably great driving instructor, she was so patient and caring. I am so relieved I found Ivy to teach me how to drive manual, as it was always a fear of mine, LOL. Ivy made me feel so relaxed and calm, which gave me plenty of confidence to learn. Thank you so much Ivy
Fantastic experience: Thank you so much Ivy and Jacqueline! They’re incredibly helpful and patient. I was very nervous but they have me a lot of confidence and skills by being so supportive and sharing their knowledge. Highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: A massive THANK YOU to this Aust Asian Driving School especially to the 2 sisters Ivy and Tammy who helped me overcome my phobia for driving school. Their best quality is that they just reacts calmly when I make mistakes and they have this effective and professional method of teaching. There are too many qualities to mention and I really like their concern and caring to their students, understanding the nerves and making sure it goes away after a lesson. I would wholeheartedly recommend this driving school to anyone. Thank you so much for everything. I passed the test! Yahoo!!!

Ivy also has many years of experience driving and/or instructing in a range of larger vehicles, so if you plan on a job driving a heavy vehicle in the future she will have so so much great advice and information to offer you! This was definitely a huge help to me, Ivy definitely went above and beyond to be a great mentor as well and driving instructor. I had a great experience and will be recommending Aust Asian Driving school to anyone I meet looking to learn in the future
Fantastic experience: functional patient, knowledgeable, world renowned driver, manual transmission expert and good teacher
Fantastic experience: Detailed driving tips/angles for reverse parallel parking, made it easier to perform well under pressure. Repetition in parking manoeuvres helped build confidence throughout the journey. Good talks in the middle of the lessons, small things made a big difference. Repeated instructions with hand gestures during the driving test made a huge impact on the test day. The pre-test car walk through was beautifully demonstrated, hence the ease during the actual test. Sometimes the lessons do go over the specified time, for which one has to pay extra charge. If the instructor could advise the learner about this initially and maintain the lesson time accordingly, that’d be something the learner would appreciate. Overall, satisfied with the experience. Thank you Ivy.
Fantastic experience: Couldn’t have done it without Ivy! She made every lesson fun and safe. Ivy felt more like a friend than an instructor. I felt very comfortable and confident on the road with her. Thank you Ivy!
Fantastic experience: Ivy, taught me to drive a manual car. Before I started my driving lessons with Ivy, I did not have the confidence to get off 4th gear and to start the car moving on a hill. The car was always rolling backwards. Every lesson with Ivy was challenging. I was taken on various terrains/night time driving ( freeways, city driving, getting to start on a slope in shopping mall car parks). I was taught the techniques to use the clutch so that I don’t stall or rollback the car on an inclined road. Now I am a confident driver and started driving a manual Mazda. I recommend ' Aust Asian Driving School '.

Fantastic experience: I was looking for someone to give me Refesher course as it has been a while since I got my driving licence overseas. And now I need to use it urgently to drive locally and overseas. Ivy is so assuring and pleasant. She made each lesson a great experience for me. That greatly built up my confidence on the road.
