Clear instruction and feedback

Learning manual with your Priestdale instructor

Clutch control and gear changes can feel like separate jobs at first. Your instructor can help you understand each action, practise the coordination and connect it with the car’s speed. You also work on looking and planning so the controls do not take all of your attention.

An experienced learner may need less help operating the car but still benefit from feedback on timing, observation or consistency. Practice reflects the skills you have now, with opportunities to ask questions and repeat a task that needs more attention.

Michelle is a Queensland-accredited driver trainer, and Coastwide lesson cars have dual controls. We are part of a group that has helped students pass their test since 1959.
