Simon

I am an enthusiastic and passionate driving instructor who takes a great deal of job satisfaction tailoring lessons to my students’ individual needs while assisting them on the journey to becoming good, safe drivers. I adjust every driving lesson to the learner's requirements to ensure a friendly and comfortable experience every time regardless of your experience or ability. My aim is to teach each student what they need to know to be able to pass their driving test first time. 

I am a North Shore and Northern Beaches NDIS driving instructor which is a reflection of my knowledge and care as well as my ability to teach all learners regardless of their physical or emotional barriers to driving.

I hold a Certificate IV in Transport and Logistics and have up to date knowledge of all the road rules. I am currently completing a Cert IV in Training and Assessment.

I have gained my accreditation in, and really enjoy running, the Safer Driving Course module 2s as well as the Ryda training programs.

My extensive customer service background as well as the many years spent coaching boy’s rugby teams and girl’s touch football teams means I can relate to all age groups as I create a fun, safe and calm learning environment. I’ve lived on the Northern Beaches my whole life and enjoy working with the local communities.

I will ensure that you gain the most from your training and acquire the correct skills you need to not only pass your test first time but, most importantly, to feel confident and safe on the road.

Quotes

I would recommend Simon any day! He is very professional. It will take me a book to describe how every sessions and invested time were worth it. I have never driven in my life, and I am in my 30s. He was not my first instructor of choice based on Google reviews with Onroad, and I am very happy I switched to him after an unpleasant experience with the prior. He made driving very easy and enjoyable. Something I always look forward in my week and I get excited once I get in the car and didn't even realise the time flies by. He is very easy to get along with. He is a very good mentor. And God, he knows how to read the room. Onroad, please value Simon. He skills to have a good environment while mentoring is very amazing, and he caters to different personalities, anxiety, culture, attitude and experience. He adapts very well! He always made me feel whenever I make silly mistakes, that it is part of learning - and that is what he is here for. I made a friend in a few sessions with him. He gave me mental and emotional support in every session. And he was the best person to be with me during my the test. He calmed me, cheered for me, encouraged me. He was the proudest in the center when I got the 'congratulations' in the room. He gave me amazing tips in passing the test. He suggested the best route to take, and we practiced around that area few times. It takes a very good driver to teach someone to drive all the technicalities of driving and road rules, but Simon topped that with his amazing people skills and ability to connect and encouraged new drivers that anyone can learn. Thank you Simon. I will recommend you to anyone I know in a heartbeat. Chase me down if you are not happy with his services. Thank you.
