During a Mooloolaba lesson, your instructor gives you an explanation, time to try the task and feedback on the result. The aim is to understand the decision you are making, not just repeat a set of movements.
As your control improves, lessons can put more attention on observing pedestrians, judging gaps and keeping an appropriate position. You can ask to repeat a task before adding more difficulty. The roads and activities used depend on your experience and the conditions.

If a public meeting place is more useful, PARKnGO Mooloolaba Central at First Avenue and Smith Street is an option to discuss. It has multiple vehicle entry points, so agree the level and exact spot rather than just saying the car park. Check the current council parking information and parking conditions before you go. This is a candidate by arrangement, not a regular Coastwide pickup point.
Yes, home, school or work pickup can be discussed when booking. If you work near the Esplanade, agree the actual street and waiting place. The council foreshore project page carries access updates, so check it if works affect the location you intend to use.
