Mia

I had Simon when preparing for the test and just passed first time without errors! He gave me so much useful information about the test routes and general feedback on my driving but was so calm and made me feel relaxed while driving. I've had other instructors who made me feel more stressed about driving but I would recommend Simon to anyone preparing for their test or just starting to drive

Karolina

I can't express enough how grateful I am to have had Simon as my driving instructor. From day one, his patience and calm energy put me at ease, transforming what initially seemed like a daunting process into an enjoyable journey. Simon's extensive knowledge of driving was evident, but what truly stood out was his ability to translate that knowledge into simple, understandable guidance and steps. He didn't just teach me how to drive; he created an environment where I felt comfortable asking questions and learning at my own pace, all while having great chats. Five months ago, the idea of driving completely freaked me out, but Simon gradually transformed my anxiety into confidence. I not only conquered my initial fear but also passed the driving test on my first attempt. Simon isn't just a skilled instructor; he's genuinely a nice human being who goes above and beyond to make the learning process not only effective but also enjoyable. I can confidently say that without Simon, I wouldn't have obtained my license this quickly and with that much ease. Thank you!

Simon was an amazing driving coach! Booked three lessons with him before my test and he taught me super helpful parking tricks whilst also taking me on a near identical drive to my test. Passed my P's first time - couldn' t have done it without him!

Abigail

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.

Corrin

I cannot recommend Simon enough as a driving instructor. I passed my test first time three months after starting lessons with just Simon despite never driving before. He was always calm, patient and recognised the areas I needed to improve before I did to ensure all my lessons were personalised. The test package made sure the process was as smooth as possible. Simon also gave me great advice to help me start driving beyond the test and was always COVID safe.

Thank you so much to Simon for assisting us with our daughter's driving for her P test, which she passed on the first try. We could not have done it without his help! We were using another driving school that failed to deliver results and forced us to change at the last minute. Simon truly performed a miracle with her! He is knowledgeable, patient, reasonably priced, and produces excellent results. We wholeheartedly endorse him!

I highly recommend Simon. He's the best coach I had. He tells you every details about driving, how to do the head check, how to turn right at intersection, how to do a perfect reverse parallel park. I failed 3 times in my driving test until I found Simon. After practicing with Simon for 2 month, I went to the driving test again. Guess what? I passed it in one try. I'm really thrilled about it.

Shelley

Simon is great. Just get him. He is patient, thoughtful, honest, intuitive, very experienced, and gives you just the right amount of push to build confidence. I am an older learner driver who had extreme anxiety about being behind the wheel and never thought that I would be able to drive ever but Simon managed to teach me to feel confident. Young or old, anxious or whatever your setback may be, Simon knows how to teach.
Thank you Simon,
Shelley

Simon was a great instructor. He took his time teaching me when I needed it and the parts I understood we didn't spend as much. He understood that nerves can come into play and he was always patient and informative. He helped a lot and I couldn't have passed on a manual without him. Thanks simon

Dion


My son has been learning to drive with Simon A at Onroad for a couple of months now and he is absolutely loving it! Simon is very patient and understanding and takes the time to explain and demonstrate what he is planning to teach in each lesson. My son has mild autism and Simon has made the effort to really get to know my son and connect with him. Simon always makes sure that my son is comfortable behind the wheel and is fully aware of his surroundings. Simon has been amazing at teaching my son the skills and knowledge necessary for him to be confident to drive. We could not ask for a better teacher!

We highly recommend Simon and Onroad driving school. The booking system is really easy and Simon is very patient. He has a great way of explaining things that make it easy to understand and gave me confidence in my learning. Mum and I also did the keys2learn with Simon and he really helped us both to learn the best ways to practice in our own time. It was great as it taught us both a lot about being a learner and supervisor driver. Highly recommended for all. Thanks Simon and OnRoad Driving

I want to thank Onroad Driving School and in particular Simon Ambrosoli for my driving lessons. My driving lesson experience with Simon has been a great one and I have learnt so much from him from every lesson I took that has led me to get my license. I have found Onroad on my own without any reference and if I were to repeat this experience I would again choose Onroad and my driving instructor Simon Ambrosoli. Thank you Simon! Gracias!!

Had my first lesson with Simon today. He was very understanding, patient and knowledgeable and calm. Additionally, I immediately felt comfortable and was able to not only learn from, but also enjoy the experience. I feel as though I learnt immense amounts in just a singular lesson with Simon. I would highly recommend him to anyone!

From a young learner who has never driven a car before to a driver who would just like a refresher course, and everyone in between, Onroad can assist.
All the instructors are very professional and trained and supported to teach the correct skills and techniques that student drivers need to pass their test.
