Your Instructors

A locally owned driving school, not a franchise

At Sydney South Driving School, the person answering your call is the same person who'll be teaching you or your child to drive. Ashraf leads lessons across Liverpool and the surrounding suburbs, while George covers Campbelltown and the Macarthur region. Both instructors are fully accredited with Transport for NSW, hold current Working with Children Checks and National Police Checks, and teach in modern cars.

Meet Ashraf, senior instructor

I'm Ashraf, the senior driving instructor at Sydney South. My background isn't the usual path into driving instruction.

I hold a bachelor's degree in commerce and worked as an accountant from 1985, before spending years in hospitality with five-star chains including Sheraton Hotels. In 2013, I became a driving instructor, and I've found that both careers shape how I teach today.

Hospitality taught me patience and genuine customer service, so lessons stay calm and pressure-free even when a student is nervous. Accounting trained me to think in structured, logical steps, which carries directly into how I break down manoeuvres and road rules so they actually make sense, not just something to memorise.

I've helped hundreds of learners across Liverpool, Chipping Norton, Warwick Farm and the surrounding suburbs build the confidence to pass first go and become safe, independent drivers for life.

George, driving instructor for Campbelltown and the Macarthur region, standing beside the Sydney South driving school Corolla

Meet George, senior instructor

Hi, I'm George, the senior driving instructor for Campbelltown and the surrounding suburbs.

I come from a teaching background: I spent years teaching at TAFE NSW and in high schools before moving into driving instruction full-time, and I've been a driving instructor since 2005. In that time I've helped hundreds of learner drivers of all ages build the skills to stay safe on the road and the confidence to pass their test.

Behind the teaching sits a Graduate Diploma in Education from ACU, a Masters of Building Science from Victoria University of Wellington, and a Bachelor of Town Planning.

My goal for every student is the same: a calm, stress-free lesson and habits that last well beyond the test.

Results

Why our students pass on their first attempt

Our high pass rate isn't an accident. Every lesson is structured around the specific skills examiners assess and the actual test routes used at the Liverpool, Macarthur, Macquarie Fields and Edmondson Park Service NSW centres.

We don't spend lesson time driving aimlessly, each session builds toward test day, so by the time you sit your assessment, the roads and manoeuvres already feel familiar.

Services

Lessons built around your stage

Whether you're starting from nothing or fast-tracking your logbook hours, we tailor every lesson plan to where you are right now.

Beginner driving lessons

A calm introduction to steering, mirror checks, braking and road positioning on quiet local streets, for first-time learners who want to start without pressure.

Driver hours log book (3-for-1 hours)

Learners under 25 can claim the Transport for NSW 3-for-1 rule, every hour with an accredited instructor counts as three logbook hours, up to a maximum of 10 professional hours (30 logbook hours).

Driving test car hire

A pre-test warm-up lesson plus use of our car for your official Service NSW assessment, so you sit the test in a car you already know.

Driving lessons for nervous drivers

Patient, unhurried instruction for anyone carrying past negative experiences, with a slower pace until busy traffic feels manageable rather than stressful.

Refresher driving lessons

For licensed drivers returning to the road after a break, or wanting to rebuild confidence with a new car or route.

Night driving lessons

Evening lessons after sunset covering headlights, high beam, glare recovery and judging distance in low light, and the 20 logbook night hours learners under 25 must complete.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Clear answers on lessons, logbook hours and test preparation, so you and your family can book with confidence.

Do you offer the 3-for-1 logbook hours?

Yes. As Transport for NSW accredited instructors, every hour you drive with us counts as three hours in your learner logbook, up to a maximum of 10 professional hours (30 logbook hours).

How many lessons will I need before my test?

It depends on your starting confidence and experience, but most students book in weekly or fortnightly lessons over several months, building steadily toward test-ready skills rather than cramming right before the date. Your instructor will give you an honest read on your progress and let you know when you're genuinely ready, rather than rushing you in.

Can I be picked up from home, school or work?

Yes, we offer free door-to-door pick-up and drop-off across Liverpool and Campbelltown, seven days a week from 7am to 7pm.

Can I use your car for my official driving test?

Yes. Our Test Day Packages include a warm-up lesson right before your test and use of our car, which you're already comfortable driving, for the official Service NSW assessment.

What if I need to reschedule or cancel a lesson?

Just call or message us as early as you can. We understand school, work and family schedules change, and we'll always try to find another time that suits you.

I'm a nervous driver, or had a bad experience before, can you still help?

Yes, this is genuinely one of the areas we focus on most. We start at whatever pace feels manageable, on quiet roads first, and only move into busier traffic once you're ready, there's no set timeline you're expected to keep up with. Our driving lessons for nervous drivers are built around exactly this, and if you already hold a licence, our refresher driving lessons for licensed drivers cover the same ground.

I have an overseas licence, can you help me convert it?

Yes. Our overseas licence conversion lessons help licence holders learn local road rules and prepare for any practical test Service NSW requires.

Do you teach automatic or manual, or both?

We teach in modern automatic vehicles, which is what the great majority of learners and test candidates use today.

How do I book a lesson?

Book online any time, or call our Liverpool team on (02) 8277 9091 or our Campbelltown team on 0409 129 275, seven days a week from 7am to 7pm.
