Choose your lessons
Automatic lessons let you practise steering, braking, observation and road decisions without changing gears. Ajay Kumar is among the automatic instructors currently serving Pacific Paradise.
Returning after a break or wanting feedback on your driving? Refresher lessons can focus on observation, parking and the situations you want to handle more comfortably.
Pre-test lessons and mock tests give you practice and feedback on the skills assessed in the practical test, including observation, safe decisions, parking and manoeuvres.

Practice and feedback
Instead of trying to change everything at once, identify a specific improvement with your instructor. That could be starting an observation earlier, leaving more time to slow down or holding a better position through a turn.
Practise the adjustment and review its effect on the whole task. The aim is to understand the reason for a correction so you can apply it again during supervised practice.
Coastwide instructors serving Pacific Paradise are Queensland-accredited. Coastwide's instructor-provided lesson cars have dual controls. We are part of a group that has helped students pass their test since 1959.
