I honestly couldn’t recommend Rightway Driving School enough! My instructor Richard was absolutely amazing and made me feel so much more confident and prepared for my driving test. I was extremely nervous going into my test, but all the advice really helped me feel ready. I ended up PASSING my test first try!! Thank you so much for being so patient, encouraging and helpful throughout my lessons. I’m so grateful for all your help and couldn’t have asked for a better instructor!

I honestly can’t thank Richard enough for helping me achieve something that I was quite nervous about — passing my practical driving test! This is my first practical test and I just passed today!!! So exciting!!! Richard is such a wonderful driving instructor. From my very first lesson, he was patient, calm, encouraging and always made me feel comfortable. Whenever I made mistakes or lacked confidence, he never made me feel bad about it. Instead, he would patiently explain things, encourage me to try again, and help me believe in myself. What makes Richard such a brilliant instructor is that he genuinely cares about his students. He didn’t just teach me how to pass the test; he taught me how to be a safer, more confident and responsible driver. I passed my practical test today, and I know Richard deserves a big part of the credit. I’m so grateful for all the time, patience, advice and encouragement he gave me throughout my lessons. Richard, thank you so much for believing in me and helping me reach this milestone. I feel very lucky that I had you as my instructor, and I’ll always remember your support. If anyone is looking for a driving instructor on the Gold Coast, I would genuinely recommend Richard without hesitation. You won’t regret learning with him! Thank you again, Richard! I’m finally enjoying my new freedom!

Richard is such a great instructor. I had a few lessons as well as a Practice Test with Richard and can definitely rate him highly. He has a very calming and relaxed nature which made me relax a little and was also very encouraging.

I asked my husband Paul to help write review for Richard: "Richard has been instructing my wife who isn't a native English speaker - he handled this well by being very accommodating, patient, and humorous. A key aspect of his instruction is the manner in which he strikes the perfect balance between providing constructive feedback and encouragement. He's also incredibly perceptive, and was able adapt his communication style in a highly effective manner. After only a few lessons, my wife's driving improved enormously, and her attitude towards driving is now so much more positive. Most importantly, I can see she is now a much safer driver thanks to Richard's instruction. I can't recommend Richard highly enough, a fantastic instructor all-round."

Tiffany

5 Stars
Richard was an amazing instructor. He was easy to understand and he was very understandable. I first booked with richard when i had my last 10 hours and i didnt notice how much work i needed to do in a short period of time before my driving test. Richard showed me the right way in a span of 10 hours. I just took my test today and i passed with no minor errors and 100% on the score sheet. I was confident in what Richard had taught me and I did my test with confidence knowing I knew the rules and what i was being assessed on. I definatley recommend Richard as he knows what he is doing and his teaching methods are impeccable. Thanks Richard and Rightway!!!!

Richard was the kindest, patient and most hilarious trainer to have! First time driving and I was so nervous, he covered all the rules and was teaching me step by step while taking it slow around the estate. Provided feedback which was catchy to keep in mind as well as asking for my opinion on my own feedback to myself. Couldn’t ask for a better first driving lesson. Thank you heaps Richard!
