Prestige is Sydney’s multi-award-winning driving school. Our Newtown instructors pick you up from home, school or work across Newtown, Erskineville, Enmore, Camperdown, Stanmore and Forest Lodge, 7 days a week from 8 am to 7:30 pm.
Newtown has a good mix of quiet residential streets and busier roads like Enmore Road, plus the traffic around Newtown station. Your instructor starts where you feel comfortable and builds up to heavier traffic, roundabouts and lane changes.
Newtown learners usually sit their driving test at Service NSW Marrickville, Marrickville Metro, 20 Smidmore Street, Marrickville. In your final lessons we practise in the streets around the centre and the manoeuvres testing officers look for.
“Ben is a clear communicator and efficient at identifying and working on weak areas. He really cares about his students and helping to create safe drivers. He is by far the best instructor I’ve worked with.”
“My driving instructor Aloka is a great teacher I’m learning so many new things. She is passionate about teaching people how to learn how to drive safely. Really appreciate her patience.”
