Fantastic experience: I just want to say a HUGE thank you to Markus who is an extremely patient & encouraging driving instructor. He explains theories clearly & things just make practical sense. I have been in Australia for 13 years now & I finally was able to get my green P after Markus pushed me into booking my driving test. I have always postponed booking my exam as I self doubted myself more than anything. But Markus was able to convince me to have (at least some!) confidence in myself. Thank you, Markus.
Thanks Shakila for your kind words. It was a pleasure working with you to achieve a grt result in your test drive. Cheers Markus.

Fantastic experience: Passed my driving test first go after driving with Markus 4 times previously. Walked me through everything I needed to know regarding normal day to day driving and everything that went into the test so I was familiar with the test before starting it. Made the experience much less nerve wracking. Couldn't recommend him enough!!

Fantastic experience: Thank you for helping Broden pass his Ps!! See you again in 18mths with the next one. I wont take my boys anywhere else!! Thanks Markus.
Fantastic experience: It's a testament to this instructor's experience, competence and methodology that someone like me, with a troubled history, no self-confidence and zero opportunity to practice outside of our weekly/fortnightly lessons, was able to not only pass the driver's test on the first attempt, but pass it in style, with the bare minimum of issues. I'm grateful to have had the opportunity; and I'm sure you will be too.
Hi Cull. Thanks for your kind words. It was a pleasure working with you to achieve a grt result. Your motivation and tenacity was instrumental in your development as a safe, confident and consistent driver. Well done mate. Markus.

Fantastic experience: Driving is really challenging for me. But kudos to Markus’ expertise for he taught and guided me well. His teachings helped me gained my confidence of how to be a good and responsible driver. I appreciate his patience, professionalism and understanding as we both gear towards the success of my driving lesson and pass my driving test! Also, thumbs up to his car that we used. It’s clean, tidy and smell fresh. Highly recommended!
Fantastic experience: It took me courage to pass my driving test but with the help of Markus it happened in one take.. he's a well soft spoken person, patient and a great coach. If you need a driving instructor, I highly recommend him..
Fantastic experience: I was very happy with the service Markus provided for my daughter, Markus was a calm and patient instructor, he prepared my daughter well for her test.
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Markus. Helped me gain confidence and experience and pass my p test comfortably. Very patient and encouraging
Negative experience: Tried ringing but no luck. Number not reachable. Not sure if they are still in business. ( 1 star to get owner attention and hopefully someone will post correct phone number)
Hi. Sorry you couldn’t get through- we are experiencing phone provider issues. The number is correct, we are having problems with customers trying to leave a voicemail. If you send me a text msg or email I will ensure you receive a timely response. Cheers Markus. Border Driving Academy
Fantastic experience: Markus is a truly exceptional teacher. Whatever stage you are at with your driving, I cannot recommend him highly enough. Before our lessons, I had some prior experience driving, but was still very rough around the edges as a driver, and quite anxious behind the wheel. (For context, I am a mature-age learner in my 30s.) However, under Markus’ instruction, I soon began to make genuine progress, and to feel my confidence improve by leaps and bounds. Markus is an excellent communicator with a caring, patient, and professional manner. I finished every lesson with a clear picture of what I had achieved that day, and what I needed to focus on going forward. In short, Markus provided all the support a learner could ask for. When the time came to take my driving test, I felt prepared and knew I had the best possible chance of success. And I did pass—first go! Thank you, Markus. Now I have the skills to feel safe on the road—and to no longer dread, but enjoy, driving.
Hi Dawn. Thanks for your kind words and congrats on a job well done. It was a pleasure working with you and your result is a credit to your motivation, enthusiasm and willingness to learn. Cheers Markus.
Fantastic experience: I would highly recommend Markus to any learner driver. Markus is professional, knowledgeable, patient and caring.
Hi Ros. Thanks for your kind words. It was a pleasure working with your daughter to achieve a grt outcome. Markus.

Fantastic experience: Had my first lesson with Markus today, highly recommend! 21/02 *passed my test today! Thankyou for all your help Markus* 17/08
Fantastic experience: Markus is an incredible driving instructor with the perfect car to learn in, as an adult learner it was daunting to go for my licence but Markus dispelled my fears with his patient, methodical but simple and structured approach to teaching. Although I only had a few lessons with Markus, each lesson built on the last and gave me the confidence to pass my driving test no matter the route or maneuver. Markus's AMISS mneunonic and his easy to understand 4 step procedure for reverse parallel parks will be forever ingrained in my head while driving as he caters his approach to teaching to you. I would recommend Markus to anybody I know going for their P's or looking to become a better driver!
Fantastic experience: 100% recommend Markus as he has been a wonderful instructor. I passed my p’s on the first attempt thanks to Markus’ encouragement, friendly and patient nature. Thank you for all of your support. Highly recommend

Fantastic experience: I would highly recommend Markus for driving lessons in the Albury Wodonga region. He was very professional, calm and friendly.
