Mali is amazing. She is so much fun to learn with, really patient and good at teaching. She’s very flexible and accommodating with when she can fit you in and is always on time. I highly recommend learning to drive with her. And I’ll be sad to not need lessons anymore !

Mali is an amazing instructor who is patient and doesn’t hesitate to assist with whatever you need. The way she explains what needs to be done and what should be improved is clear and precise. She makes it easier to have self confidence and believe that you can be a good driver. I would recommend Mali to all my friends and family as she is the reason I passed.

Mali was excellent! She has a lovely personality and is a brilliant trainer. Going into my test I felt nervous but fully prepared after her instruction. If you are just learning or transferring a license from overseas, you can’t pick a better instructor.

Mali is the best driving instructor I've ever had. After having some issues with previous instructors and completely losing confidence in my driving skills, Mali made me feel so comfortable and able to pass my test. Mali is such a warm personality, constantly having good conversations and teaching me correct techniques with ease. I highly recommend her to everybody, and will make sure my younger siblings have her when they start learning to drive. Mali is a credit to your company!!! Thank you Mali 💖

She believes in me & I passed the driving test on my first attempt! I am so pleased to have Mali as my instructor - highly recommend!!

Had the best driver instructor Mali !! She patient with me and very caring . She treated me more as a friend and I was very comfortable doing my lessons with her , Mali is kind hearted and warm during the lessons as she will explain the instructions over and over again till you will understand. She was always punctual and on time to all the lessons and ever wait for you if you are running late. Her caring nature made me want to keep learning how to drive and not give up .

Driving for me was such a scary experience, so much so that I left it until my 30s. I attempted to get my license a few years ago and it was such a disaster. The instructor was not patient with me and made me never want to drive again. This year I gave it another go and found Mali. Mali was absolutely amazing! I cannot praise her enough, not only for her technical skills and vast knowledge but for her kind hearted nature. She listened to me and my concerns and the whole process changed my whole outlook on driving. I can not recommend her enough! I only wish I had met her sooner .

My instructor Mali was a fantastic instructor, she was on time and very hospitable. Mali was at my house well before my lesson time. She gave me very specific instructions and things to watch out for during the test. She was very kind and patient, and made me feel comfortable when driving.If you are looking for an instructor to get you ready for the big test day,look no further. I couldn’t have found a more suitable instructor

Mali is very skillful and patient. I am nervous for driving in the first place and Mali helped me to overcome my fear and give me confidence.

Mali was the best instructor I could have ever asked for! She was very patient, flexible and extremely professional. Like, you can immediately tell she's got lots of experience. She knows both, exactly how to teach driving, but also all the tips and tricks for the tests (and she will make sure you're always safe!). She was able to catch the smallest mistake, and very respectfully (and skill-fully) build on them.She's the best!

I want to say a big thanks to instructors Mali and Jad. I came overseas and for me was a great challenge to ride from the different side of the road.

Mali was by far the most incredible and inspiring driving instructor. I couldn't recommend her enough to anyone looking to start driving or improve on their skills. She is a very talented teacher and I passed first time under her guidance. Not only was she a great instructor, but also a great human being to be around. Thanks for everything!

Nicole PQ

06:54 17 Nov 21

Thank you so much for your guidance, Mali! I was an extremely nervous and inexperienced driver - despite having my licence, the theme song running through my head was less "Tokyo Drift (Fast & Furious) by Teriyaki Boyz" and more the scary theme song from Jaws on the rare occasion I drove. I am so glad I made the decision to have refresher lessons with Mali before I bought my own car. Mali doesn't just teach technical skills; she understands your anxieties and concerns and helps build your confidence. I highly recommend her lessons and Skillz 2 Drive!

Her style of teaching is second to none and thanks to her I passed my test first time! I’m almost sad not to be having lessons anymore as she’s such a delight to chat to. I really can’t say thank you enough!

Thank you Mali “YOU ARE AN ABSOLUTE LEGEND”Mali was always on time super encouraging and always instilling confidence in you. She goes out of the way to help you learn and is soo helpful.

I was absolutely grateful to have Mali as my instructor, she is the perfect driving instructor. Not only did she help me pass my driver's test on my first go, but she also taught me how to be a safe and responsible driver. She was patient, supportive and clear with whatever she taught me. She made sure every lesson was relaxed and enjoyable, which ultimately made me more comfortable and confident in my driving. Mali is the go to driving instructor if you starting to learn driving and trust me you won't regret doing so.

Regine Imperial

I had Mali as my driving instructor and I could not be more grateful to have someone so calm, patient and easy going. I always felt comfortable in our lessons and have learnt so much, which I not only applied for the drive test which passed at first go - but for driving in general after getting my license. Thank you so much and cannot recommend her enough!

Simran Giria

01:11 19 Dec 22

I took my lessons with Mali and she is the most patient, encouraging, and lovely instructor I’ve ever come across. I made several mistakes while driving and got stressed, but she always reminded me to breathe and positively reinforced me. At the end of the drive sessions, we would debrief for 5 minutes, where she gave me constructive feedback and shared what went right. She is thorough, trusting, and incredible at communication. I cannot recommend her enough - her diary is always jam-packed and it’s because she’s super good!

Mali is a fantastic driving teacher. She gets to know her students and is very positive and encouraging while still being honest about how to improve. As someone learning to drive at age 37 I was quite nervous and Mali was kind and helped me prepare and relax for the test. She was supportive leading up to the test and on the test day. I would very highly recommend Mali to anyone who is learning to drive in Melbourne. She is excellent!

Haseena Ismail

I am absolutely thrilled that I successfully passed my driving test under the guidance of my instructor Mali. I am so grateful to have her as my instructor and teaching exceptional road education, but for also giving me the confidence to drive and take my test when I doubted myself.I had taken many lessons in the past but I never felt fully confident in my ability to drive on the road. When I started my driving lessons with Mali, she immediately made me feel relaxed with her friendly personality and regular conversation. She was also incredibly considerate of my study schedule and found the best solutions for me to take my lessons without any interference with such convenience. Even if you don’t believe in yourself, she will believe in you.I had so much self doubt, I never thought I could ever book my driving test and pass it in the first time. Mali's tips and tricks gave me lots of confidence too!Now I can say that I am able to drive safely alone with a solid foundation of driving habits.

Lingam Palam

01:26 27 May 23

Mali is the best driving instructor, and I’m grateful to have learned from her. At 51, I was a very nervous learner, but Mali was super-patient, supportive and calm. She taught me next-level driving skills, both in driving the car as well as safely navigating busy traffic, and even highway driving at 100km/h! Mali’s lessons were always relaxed, her instructions clear, and she honed in on areas for improvement and my weak points to focus on. Very quickly, she built-up my confidence and turned me into a safe and responsible driver and made driving comfortable and fun. All thanks to you, Mali, now I have this critical life-skill! No better way to learn to drive, than to learn from Mali!

Ross Burnett

22:44 02 Mar 23

Highly recommend and 5 star service.Fantastic support and lessons with George. A very calming presence in the car and he makes sure that you are comfortable and safe throughout.Great communication and willingness to shuffle around appointments to accommodate the final driving test. Mali stepped in at the last minute to assist, she is a confident and friendly instructor. Very experienced and was impressed by her knowledge of VicRoads and the staff, which is a great help as well.Passed without any issues.

Meg Evans

21:47 20 Jun 23

I was a nervous 30 year old L-plate driver and could not have asked for a better driving instructor than Mali, who eased my nerves and made me feel confident on the roads from the first lesson.

I learned here with Mali and took my last few lessons with Aicia.Mali is an absolutely wonderful instructor. Made me feel so at ease and improved my confidence. Taught me a lot of skills and tricks and had a lot of patience. Cannot recommend her enough!Aicia is also an excellent teacher and eased my nerves and boosted my confidence before my test.

Mali and Jad helped me passed the test at first attempt! They were both very patient, friendly and professional and gave me great advice to pass the test successfully. I was very nervous and lacking confidence, and they really helped me overcome my stress and get the right skills. I can’t recommend them highly enough!

Mali was the most incredible instructor, I had been taught by two different people prior with a different driving school and came to Mali with low confidence and some bad experiences! She was so calm, funny and supportive…I passed first try. I would recommend her to anyone.

Very grateful to have had Mali as my driving instructor with her calm demeanour and bubbly personality. She helped me regain my confidence behind the wheel as I'd been putting it off for some time. Mali was always punctual, patient, and particularly good at getting me to improve on weaker areas of my driving. Passed on my first attempt thanks to Mali! I'm going to miss the drives and the chats. Highly recommended!!

Mali is very experienced in her job. She sets the bar high for you while teaching so that you can clear your test easily. She would point out my mistakes each time to prepare me thoroughly for safe driving. Also tried to calm me down when I was stressed out about my driving. All this helped me clear my driving test in first attempt. Thank you Mali.

Karen Quintal

21:18 03 Nov 23

Mali is amazing. I highly recommend her professionalism and experience. She gives constructive feedback when needed and where to improve. On my first lesson she assessed my capabilities and recommended how many lessons I’ll need to improve- I passed on the first test after 15 lessons 🙂 Thanks again Mali!!

Soledad Barraza

Mali was my instructor. I have to admit I was pretty nervous at the beginning and with Mali help I build confidence and I passed my driving test at the first attempt. She is a very experienced instructor and I highly recommend Skillz2Drive driving school. Thank you!

Kush was amazing, patient and clear with the practice lessons. His enthusiasm and passion to support safe driving motivated me to be a safer driver. He is honest with feedback that helps you to make changes and brilliant with positive reinforcements. I passed my test on my first attempt in Carlton, at possibly the worst day and time of the week. Thanks again Kush.

I highly recommend Mali as a driving instructor for both beginners as well as drivers needing refresher classes. She has an excellent understanding of the roads and provides clear instructions to follow the route and learn the road rules. She provides useful knowledge of the roads and feedback to keep improving throughout the lessons. Mali is a kind and patient person and is happy to accommodate taking different routes to get a lot of practice on the roads. It was a great experience taking these professional driving classes and I felt increasingly confident after each class.

I highly recommend Skillz2drive and my driving instructor Mali for anyone who wants to learn how to drive safely and confidently. Mali was very patient, friendly, and professional throughout my lessons. She taught me the road rules, the tips and tricks, and the best practices for driving in Melbourne. She helped me to prepare for the driving test at Vicroads Carlton, where I passed on the first attempt. Thanks to Mali and Skillz2drive, I am now a licensed driver and I feel more comfortable on the road. Thank you so much for your excellent service!

I had a great experience with my instructor Mali. She was very supportive and helped me feel confident to drive on my own. As a nervous driver with no experience driving in a big city like Melbourne, it was very helpful to get a few refresher lessons. Now I am driving on my own and feeling more confident as a driver every day.

Mali is the most patient driving instructor that I have ever met.Her kindness is second to none. I have anxiety and I stress a lot - she helped me through it and supported me all along. I cannot have done it without her friendly face next to me in the test.Thank you Mali for everything😍

I had an amazing experience learning to drive with Mali! I was very anxious about driving and had put it off for a long time but Mali put me at ease and in under 10 lessons I was able to sit my test (and passed on the first go). I definitely wouldn’t have been able to achieve this without Mali’s invaluable guidance - the pre-test warm up in particular settled my nerves and gave me the confidence I needed to pass.

Elizabeth Kelly

01:41 06 Aug 24

Mali is an absolute treasure, I hadn't driven in a few years before I started doing lessons and I had never driven close to the city before, but she was extremely patient and kind while also being attentive and knowledgeable about everything you need to know to get your licence!! And now I have my licence!!! Thank you so much Mali ✨✨✨

Mali was extremely patient, encouraging and thorough in her teaching. I feel safe having her as my instructor, she is extremely knowledgeable about what to watch out for during the driving test. I was initially afraid of driving and parallel parking was my weakness, she has technique that made me feel confident driving. Would definitely recommend her service and you will not be disappointed.

Mali was the best. She was patient, relaxed, and I always looked forward to our lessons. She made sure I was safe and knew what I was doing on the road, and got me to my test quickly. Would (and will) recommend her to anyone wanting to get their licence.

Claire Leppold

02:34 12 Aug 24

Really fantastic teachers! I had Jad at the start and then Mali. I went from absolute beginner to passing my test in few months, thanks to their excellent lessons. Learning to drive as an adult can feel daunting, but this driving school made it even easier and more straightforward than I had imagined. I would recommend them to anyone!

I can’t thank Mali enough for her guidance and trust in me as a driver! I’ve never had such a kind driving instructor; Mali showed me how to feel relaxed and good about driving and turned me from thinking I won’t get my license to getting it in a matter of months! Can’t recommend her enough 😍

Mali and I had many lessons together an all we’re brilliant. She not only worked with myself but my two sisters who are older than me. We all passed our test under her guidance and couldn’t have asked for a better instructor. If I asked my sisters about her we would all say that she is a great teacher and she would be the first we would recommend if anyone asked. Thankyou Mali

I've been learning with Mali over the last few months and she's an amazing teacher - she's calm and never raisers her voice, explains things well and regularly checks your understanding. I also had one lesson with Jad, who was great too. I highly recommend skillz2drive if you're not sure where to get started with your driving lessons. Thank you Mali!
