Fantastic experience: I cannot recommend Graham enough. I was looking for a good driving instructor in Gungahlin and the reviews here speak for him. I had booked my lessons with Graham prior to giving my one-off driving test (to convert my international licence to a full licence here in ACT) which I passed with a 90+ score. The examiner didn't have anything to say to me in terms of improvement and it was all possible because of Graham's up-to-date knowledge, skills and understanding about the ACT road rules. His tricks of remembering the different manoeuvres is so easy to understand that I could never understand watching videos on YouTube. So I highly recommend him as an instructor if you genuinely want to learn and pass. All the best!
Fantastic experience: Graham was a godsend honestly, an absolute LEGEND. got my license super quick and it was easy and stress free. If you're an anxious driver like me, definitley go here to learn to drive. Graham is the best. I would put more stars if I could.

Fantastic experience: Graham has been recommended to me by family and honestly he is the best. He is very kind and knowledgeable.
