We couldn’t be happier with our experience with Kerrie! We first used Kerrie back in 2023 for our daughter, and now most recently for our son. She was an excellent communicator, calm, patient, and very personable. Our daughter was initially not excited about the prospect of learning to drive, so we engaged with Kerrie from the beginning to make sure that she would feel confident behind the wheel. For our son, we used Kerrie in the final stages to ensure that he was well versed in the technical parts of all driving maneuvers, and to keep his (over) confidence behind the wheel in check. We are pleased to say that they each passed their driving test on the first attempt! So grateful to have found you when we were looking for a skilled and supportive instructor. Thank you Kerrie for your guidance and support throughout our family's 'Learn to Drive' journey!

Hi Kerrie, Thank you so much for the driving lessons and for getting me ready for my driving test. I'm so happy that all of the things you taught me, helped to get me my driver's licence. You are a friendly kind teacher and I'd recommend you to anyone learning to drive. Thanks again, Imogene

Lauren M

As an older student (34) and extremely nervous driver, I truly wasn’t sure I’d ever be able to get my license. Getting into the car each time was a huge challenge for me—but Kerrie was there for every step of the journey. She was reliable, encouraging, and incredibly patient, never pushing me too hard but always helping me move forward. Every lesson was filled with support, calm guidance, and valuable insights—not just to pass the test, but to be a safe and confident driver for life. Kerrie knew exactly when I was ready and prepared me perfectly for my test, which I’m so proud to say I’ve passed! I’m so grateful for the hours we spent together and everything I learned. I honestly hope I’ll always hear her calm, reassuring voice in my head when I’m behind the wheel. Thank you, Kerrie—you made something I felt was impossible, possible.

My daughter has been so fortunate to have found Kerrie as her driving instructor. Kerrie's teaching is thorough, comprehensive and with great clarity. She is reliable, trustworthy, patient and communicative. Kerrie is also kind and understanding. She took efforts to accommodate our unexpected lesson time and exam time needs. Learning driving and communicating with Kerrie has been so pleasant, effective and alway with a sense of ease and friendliness.

We would not hesitate to recommend Kerrie to anyone who wants to have an uplifting and pleasant driving learning experience.

Ruby B

Testimonial: Naomi & Darren As a parent, entrusting someone with teaching your teenager to drive is a big decision, and choosing Kerrie was the best decision we could have made. From the first lesson, it was clear that Kerrie not only has an incredible knack for teaching but also possesses a patience and understanding that immediately put our child at ease behind the wheel. Kerrie's approach to teaching is comprehensive and tailored to the individual learner. She doesn't just focus on passing the test but on building a foundation of safe and confident driving skills that will last a lifetime. What stands out most about Kerrie's Driving School is the genuine care and dedication Kerrie shows to her students. She went above and beyond to accommodate our scheduling needs and always provided detailed feedback after each lesson, which was incredibly reassuring for us as parents. Seeing our teenager transform from a nervous beginner to a confident, responsible driver has been a wonderful journey, and we owe so much of this success to Kerrie. I cannot recommend Kerrie's Driving School highly enough to any parent looking for a high-quality, personalised, and genuinely caring driving instruction experience for their child. Thank you, Kerrie, for not just teaching Ruby how to drive, but for giving her the confidence and skills to navigate the roads safely.

Chiara K

I was initially very anxious to start driving but Kerrie was able to help build up my confidence and teach the necessary skills to know. Driving with Kerrie always felt comfortable with her teaching in a patient, kind and professional way. I booked in for a lesson before my test, which gave me time to have a refresh of the maneuvers and extra things to remember. This helped me feel less anxious going into my test. I can now say I feel very confident to drive! I definitely recommend if you’re thinking of taking lessons, they helped majorly. Thankyou Kerrie!! :)

How easy is that payment and booking system?! Great to see availability at a glance and organise my life and plan ahead. Bravo, Kerrie’s Driving School. And we haven’t even started the lessons yet. Impressed already.

Chloe N

I definitely couldn’t have passed my test first go without Kerrie!! She was so patient and friendly, and made me feel so comfortable behind the wheel! I left every lesson feeling more confident in my driving, particularly the manoeuvres! And I always looked forward to our funny chats as I drove as well! :-)

Angela T

My personal goal this year was to finally start driving lessons and obtain my license before turning 30 later this year. However having left it later in life, I felt nervous and anxious and had zero-to-low confidence about driving a car. To add to that, having moved here from the UK I had no relatives to help me learn therefore it was important to me to find an instructor that I felt comfortable wouldn’t be impatient with my inexperience and that I felt had a good reputation knowing they’d teach me how to drive correctly and safely.

After doing a lot of research for local instructors in Brisbane I found Kerrie’s website and after reading all the great feedback I wanted to learn with Kerrie. I’m so glad I trusted Kerrie to help me with this important step in my life!

After coming to her with zero driving experience, she helped prepare me for my test by teaching me the required driving manoeuvres but also the fundamentals of driving in my first few lessons—from turning on the engine, steering, road position etc. After only 26 hours of lessons I passed my learners test with only 1 minor which is an endorsement of Kerrie as a fantastic driving instructor!

I am truly grateful to her for all the guidance, support, and patience she showed me during my learning experience. Thank you Kerrie ??

Mila S

Amazing Personalised lessons, Passed first go!, Kerrie has prepared me to be a comfortable driver for the future.

Xander V

Kerrie was an amazing driving instructor. She was very approachable, very calm and was the main reason I was able to pass my driving test. She taught me all the important manoeuvres necessary along with everything else and was extremely easy to drive with. I would definitely recommend going with her to anyone who wants to build up their driving experience or gain more confidence before a test.

Thanks Kerrie!

Pia M

Passed first go, with no minors thanks to Kerrie! Best teacher and was so understanding while I was learning. Helped so much with teaching me manoeuvres so I was ready for my test.

Lauryn H

Kerrie is the best driving teacher ever!!! She taught me everything I know about driving & gave me the confidence I needed to get on the roads! I especially loved that she asked me questions so i could think for myself - she didn’t just give me the answer. I would recommend Kerrie to anyone and everyone wanting to gain more confidence on the roads & learn manoeuvres with ease.

Max T

Wouldn’t have passed my test without Kerrie. She knows everything and is a great teacher.

Jawiicoo

Kerrie have been so patient with me, the communicate was difficult at first when she knew bit of Auslan, she have working so hard to learn Auslan to break down the communicate barrier. So she can teach me more clear and better. She have been amazing to helping me to stay calm and had good talk when learn on driving over six months and I got passed because of her!!

She’s the best driver instructor!

Abbey G

Kerrie is the one and only driving instructor that I had, but she is by far the best! She gave me the confidence I have to drive and she also taught me what’s safe and what isn’t. If anyone asked I would 100% recommend her to them!

Darcy P

Kerrie is a brilliant driving teacher and she gave me lots of tips and tricks to help me improve my driving skills. She knows how to keep students calm and relaxed during driving lessons and she helped me pass my P's test on the first try. I highly recommend her if you are looking for an experienced driving teacher who is nice and knows how to teach driving very well.

Mark P

Kerrie is a brilliant instructor, caters to her students’ individual needs and takes the time to communicate well with worried parents. Look no further if you want a caring and professional driving instructor.

A very approachable and friendly driving instructor, provided a comfortable learning experience. Lessons were very beneficial and helped immensely with manoeuvres. Thank you!!

Kara P

Kerrie is a fantastic driving teacher! As someone who struggled getting the hours up for my logbook and had almost given up with getting their licence I found Kerrie to be extremely helpful at getting me back behind the wheel. She was patient, explained things clearly and was supportive of my learning journey. I passed the test on the first attempt with no errors and I have Kerrie to thank for that. Would recommend her services to all learner drivers.

Charlotte C

I passed first go!! Thank you for your support and your time, I really appreciate it!! I couldn't have done this without your guidance and words of encouragement!!! Thank you so much!!!

Todd K

It should be 10 stars instead of 5. Kerrie is an amazing driving instructor, I am Deaf myself. It is difficult to find a driving instructor whom I can communicate with whilst behind the wheel. Kerrie learns Auslan, when teaching me how to drive which is incredible. Any Deaf members who want to do with Kerrie. I highly recommend doing your lessons with her. I passed on my first go, everything was perfect because of her guidance, patience and understanding when working with a Deaf person. Excellent driver instructor!

Alex K

Kerrie is absolutely amazing. I honestly could not have passed my test, and drive as well as I do, without her. I'm autistic, have ADHD, plus anxiety, so sometimes I have to learn things a little differently. Kerrie was really flexible with this and would adapt things to help me learn easier. She honestly had more confidence in me than I did myself. I could not have asked for a better driving instructor. Genuinely, she talked me through my anxieties, adapted to my learning style, never judged me for my weird habits (like moving my head in time with the blinker noise), and made me feel more comfortable with driving. I can say, with 100% certainty, she is a spectacular teacher and if you have the opportunity to learn with her, I definitely recommend it.

Jessica T

Kerrie is an amazing instructor. She’s so kind and knows what she’s doing. Just passed first try with no minor errors at all! Appreciate it very much!

Josh S

Kerrie was great! Highly recommend.

Luke W

I highly recommend Kerrie McDonald as a Driving Instructor. I was super impressed with her patience and rapport with both myself and my son in taking us through the Keys2Drive program. As a parent its pretty scary sitting in that passenger seat for the first time when your 'baby' is behind the wheel but Kerrie's patience and calm manner was just what was needed. The Keys2Drive program is a must for any teenager embarking on their learning to drive journey!

Charlotte D

I did 100% of my driving hours with Kerrie, she was amazing! She is very approachable, patient and kind. I passed my P’s test first go with no errors, and it was completely due to her guidance and teaching! Couldn’t recommend more
