I originally got into driving instruction alongside my main work, as I run a transport business focused on corporate travel and have been doing that for about 20 years now.
Driving has always been something I’ve enjoyed. It actually started when I was younger racing go-karts, and over time I’ve had the chance to drive in quite a few different countries. These days, most of my time is spent on the roads around Melbourne, so I’m very familiar with the traffic, road conditions, and how unpredictable things can be day to day.
I enjoy working as a driving instructor because it’s a bit different from my other work and I like helping people build confidence. I try to keep lessons calm and practical, and I think being patient and easygoing helps people settle in a bit quicker.
I’m pretty straightforward with my feedback as well. If you’re close to test standard, I’ll let you know — and if you’re not quite there yet, I’ll be honest about what still needs work so you’re properly prepared.
It’s always good seeing someone improve over time and eventually pass. Whether you’re just starting out or coming back to driving after a break, I’m happy to help.Read More

Callum is an amazing driving instructor, and I couldn’t recommend him highly enough! He is incredibly patient and supportive, and made me comfortable and confident from day one. He’s got excellent knowledge of the driving test itself and knows exactly how to prepare you so that you feel ready and confident on the day. Every lesson is well structured, and he gives clear and helpful guidance throughout.
Thank you so much Callum!

Callum is a great driving instructor. He helped me drive around Carlton, which was tricky considering the roads. He helped me pass the test first try and I did it with near flying colours, which was amazing given that I was nervous.
He also has a fool-proof way which helped me learn reverse parallel-parking perfectly.
I would highly recommend Callum to anyone who wants to learn driving and pass the test on their first try.
I only needed one lesson with Callum before I went for my drivers test! He taught me in a simple, professional but most importantly 'enjoyable' way, all the road rules, tricks and tips to ensure full success on the big day. I would reccomend Callum…
I only needed one lesson with Callum before I went for my drivers test! He taught me in a simple, professional but most importantly 'enjoyable' way, all the road rules, tricks and tips to ensure full success on the big day. I would reccomend Callum to all drivers, whether you’re a more nervous driver or confident - regardless there is always something he will teach you, and always something you can laugh about.
As a parent of a teenage girl, I felt completely comfortable with Callum from the very beginning. He is an incredibly calm, patient, and pleasant instructor, and his approach to teaching new and nervous drivers is truly outstanding. From the very first lesson, he transformed…
As a parent of a teenage girl, I felt completely comfortable with Callum from the very beginning. He is an incredibly calm, patient, and pleasant instructor, and his approach to teaching new and nervous drivers is truly outstanding.
From the very first lesson, he transformed our daughter from someone who was afraid of driving into a confident, responsible driver who constantly prioritizes safety on the road.
His professionalism, encouragement, and clear guidance made a huge difference. Thanks to his teaching, she passed her driving test without a single mistake, which speaks volumes about the quality of his instruction.
We couldn’t be happier with the experience and would highly recommend Callum to anyone looking for a driving instructor.
Thank you so much, and God bless you!
Callum is an excellent driving instructor — straightforward, clear, and professional. He taught me proper technique and safe habits the right way, and his feedback made a real difference. I felt genuinely prepared and passed my driving test on the first try. Thanks, Callum!
