Top Driving Lessons related questions

With manual cars, you control the gear system by moving the gear stick and pressing the clutch pedal. Unlike automatic vehicles, they automatically change gears without the need for a clutch pedal. This way, you can just focus on accelerating and braking. While it’s already less common to drive a manual vehicle today, some people still fancy getting this type of car as it’s cheaper, plus it has greater control over gears. 

Car driving requires uncompromising skills on the road, so when you’re looking for a personal instructor, make sure to hire someone seasoned in the field. They should have a professional, unrestricted license with several years of driving experience. It is also essential that they have the correct authorisation to conduct a private driving lesson. Before you book their service, you can request a copy of their license or certificates to confirm their qualifications for the job. 

It is vital to hold at least a provisional or learning driving license before taking a driving lesson. If you have impaired vision, it is also necessary that you wear your eyeglasses when you are behind the wheel. This way, you can determine any potential hazards and make sure that your entire driving experience is safe. Lastly, wear comfortable shoes and avoid any uncomfortable footwear that can limit your movement.

One hour per session is the standard length for a driving lesson, which already includes a short briefing, starting the car, and moving around roads. In case you find an hour too quick, you can always request to extend it, especially if there are more concepts that you want to learn other than the mere basics. You can book a one-off excursion or regular car driving lessons until you can finally go around confidently without supervision. 

Yes, but take note that services vary from Tasker to Tasker. Your driving instructor can pick you up and drop you off at a particular location you prefer, including your work office. But if you need someone who can regularly get you a ride to or from home or work, you need a personal driver. You can also use the Airtasker platform to find a licenced driver who can lend a hand. 

Definitely! Some Taskers in your area can also arrange driving lessons for kids between 12-16 years old. This course only intends to give them their first driving experience in a safe environment guided by a trained instructor. Apart from driving, you can also enrol them in other after-school activities and have someone teach them swimming or karate or tutor them in their maths or science subjects.

The cost of driving lessons can range from $25 to $90 per hour. Rates vary depending on your location, your driving lesson plan, and the type of vehicle you'll be driving. Specify the details of your task to get the best offers from Taskers in your area. 

Preparing thoroughly will boost your confidence and improve your chances of passing the real driving test. Here are some pointers:

  • Review the test criteria.
  • Practice in a test-like setting.
  • Focus on common mistakes.
  • Take a practice test with a driving instructor near you.
  •  Stay calm.

Definitely! There are different ways to earn money with a car and driving skills. You can do driving jobs or sign up for a ride-sharing service. You can even offer driving lessons once you've achieved more experience and have a driving instructor's licence.

What do driving lessons include?

Driving lessons include courses about car controls and operators, driving rules and safety issues, and essential habits to master on the road. For starters, your driving tuition also covers basic practices like starting the car, covering the clutch and brake, or moving around quiet roads. 

While most driving instructors can bring their four wheels for the task, feel free to use your own if you want! To avoid any unfortunate incidents during your driving lesson, make sure to have your vehicle diagnosed and serviced in advance. 

Here’s what to expect from your car driving lessons:

Driving lessons for automatic cars

There are more things to learn from your automatic driving lesson than simply braking and accelerating. When you book automatic car driving lessons near you, instructors will introduce you to the automatic gearboxes, which commonly contain letters and numbers signifying park, reverse, neutral, and drive. Understanding the brake and accelerator pedals is easy, so your instructor may focus on teaching you about the mirror, speed, and how to shift gears when driving up or down a slope, in traffic jams, or when parking.

Having automatic driving lessons near you also lets you drive around, starting from a quiet parkway or backstreet and maybe reversing around a corner. Since this car is significantly easier to manoeuvre, it wouldn’t take long before you start practising around busier public roads.

Driving lessons for manual cars

Due to its complicated controls, driving and mastering a manual car can be a little more intricate than learning an automatic vehicle. Braking and accelerating are easy, but clutch pedalling can be more challenging. One of the best ways to get a clear grasp of its functions is learning the biting or friction point. Once you’ve got the hang of it, your instructor lets you know how to shift gears to maximise your fuel consumption. 

Driving on hills is optional but still a critical element of your manual driving lesson. If you don’t know how to control your clutch and change gears on a slope, chances are you might start rolling down. To avoid such conflicts, ask your instructor for tips and tricks when getting manual driving lessons near you.

Driving lessons for advanced skills

If you want to take your driving skills to the next level, you can also turn to Airtasker for intensive driving lessons near you. An experienced driver takes charge of this task. Usually, it includes a range of defensive and performance driving courses to help you drive more efficiently on public roads and highways. 

No need to overspend on advanced driving tuition! Nearby instructors on Airtasker can teach you how to control your vehicle when faced with difficult situations like wet and slippery road surfaces. If needed, you can also ask your Tasker how to deal with a sudden breakdown before bringing your vehicle to a mechanic shop. 

In such unfortunate cases that you can no longer move or drive your automobile, it is better to stay where you are and let a mobile car repair expert come over and help you out. 

Taskers can also offer motorcycle lessons near you. But if you're not yet ready to drive a car, don't worry - Airtasker will connect you with professional driving services so you don't have to stay behind the wheel.

Need a driver to accompany me for solo driving practice from Clayton to Glen Huntly and back.

This is my second time driving solo, so I just need guidance for the route and some confidence-building. The driver will not be required to drive my car, only their own vehicle to accompany me. The task should start anytime after 8 am and finish by 10:45 am, as I need to return the car to its owner by 11 am. Uber costs are around $15–$18 one way, so I’m offering $60 for the round trip.

I have over 25 years of driving experience overseas (in Russia), but I failed my driving test in Australia.

I’m looking for 1-1.5-hour lessons, ideally on the weekends.

Eden is very friendly, very polite, and very responsible! She really helped me a lot with practicing before my driving test. I’m pretty sure that Eden should be good at doing any other tasks as well, so I certainly recommend her.

I am looking for someone to ride along with me as I practice driving manual this month so I can be sure to pass my driver’s test Requirements: *You have a manual drivers licence *You have been on your manual drivers licence for at least one year My plan: *We will use my dad’s ute. *I already know how to drive manual; you will not be teaching me *You will ride along mostly silently as I focus on driving. Obviously, if you see an error or a risky situation, speak up! Other than that, though, let me learn in silence and I’ll ask questions when I need to. I learn best that way. *Aiming for 10-15 hours of practice by Mon 24 March. If you are available to do only some of that, that is fine. *Each driving session we have will be approx 2 hours *You will need to drive to my home in Bardon and we’ll go out on the road and return to my home and your vehicle. *I will pay you $30 per hour in the car with me at the end of each session *This posted has a budget of $60 for the first 2 hour session We will probably start as soon as the cyclone is over. Thanks and stay safe :) Fynn
