Narelle’s calm, supportive, and professional approach helped my daughter build both her skills and her confidence. We’re so grateful for the positive experience and highly recommend Narelle to any parent looking for a great driving instructor for their teen!

I had a very complicated relationship with driving after seeing the aftermath of several car accidents in my family, as a result it took me a lot to finally get into driving. Narelle is an amazing instructor and she taught me so many useful formulas for manoeuvres, she'd draw out sketches too, let me know when I did something wrong, and was super chatty, encouraging, and funny. It's thanks to her that I came to really enjoy driving and have built up confidence to get behind the wheel, I'm so grateful for my experience and highly recommend her as well as Coastwide Driving School.

After 5 years of being terrified to drive, I have finally achieved my independence. Just a few months ago I couldn’t imagine being ready to do the test. But thanks to Narelle from Coastwide Driving School I very quickly built confidence to do it. If you’re also terrified, Narelle is kind, patient and flexible. She has your back every step of the way. Not only that she’s great company. Her chatty, funny and bubbly personality helps you forget your own nerves yet she also gives great tips and constructive advice. One of my 2025 goals was to get my P’s and Narelle helped me achieve that. Thank you Narelle, and thank you Coastwide Driving School!!

Had a lesson with Narelle today and honestly it was amazing. She’s such a good teacher - super clear, patient, and just really happy and encouraging the whole time. I felt comfortable straight away, even though I was a bit nervous at first. I learned so much in just one lesson and now I actually feel confident for my driving test next week. She explained everything in a way that made sense and stuck with me. If you’re looking for someone who’s got a positive attitude and knows exactly how to teach, I’d definitely recommend Narelle. So glad I had a lesson with her! Thank You Narelle!

Narelle is by far the best instructor i have ever had and I 100% recommend booking with her. She is perfectly chatty to ease the nerves and help you learn how to have a conversation while remaining concentrated on the road. The way she teaches is effortless and you are guaranteed to pass your test after lessons with her. Thank you Narelle. Holly

Flobelle

Narelle is awesome. I couldnt recommend her enough. With just 3 lessons with her 2weeks prior to my test, and with low confidence i have on myself, Narelle helped me gain back my confidence and taught me skills that helped me have more control on the wheels which really improved my driving skills and pass the test. So thankful for her and for Coastwide Driving.
