Practice and feedback
During Dakabin lessons, explain how practice with your supervisor is going. An instructor can watch a task you already attempt, identify a recurring error and help you understand what to try differently next time.
Coastwide instructors are Queensland-accredited. Our instructor-provided lesson cars have dual controls. We are part of a group that has helped students pass their test since 1959.
