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! Although 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:
Automatic driving lessons
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.
Manual driving lessons
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.
Advanced driving lessons
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.Â
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.

I need to get driving lessons. I'm a beginner, so will need someone to be patient and teach me all I need to know in order to become a confident driver. You need to have a full licence and be a professional at driving and have adequate knowledge of all the rules. I've provided the per hour rate I'm willing to provide (~45-50 per hour) - Automatic - p.s. I don't have my own car at the moment
Tiffany was able to assist me in my journey to learn more about driving. I really appreciated her input and punctuality. She was very willing to teach me all about driving and her experience really did show when she gave the lessons. She was very patient with me and got me to gain enough confidence in order to drive safely on the road.

Hello, I’m looking for an experienced, full license driver with a good driving record who can help my husband (Carlos) practice a bit further to obtain his P1 licence. We have our own car (automatic) and meeting point would be our residence at Elermore vale 2287. He has experience driving (obtained an overseas license years ago) and has had several hours of practice lately but needs extra practice at roundabouts, intersections, parking and 3-point turns in Australia. Additional hours may be booked if things work out well. Best, Jordana & Carlos
