I had a great experience with Pilato as my driving instructor. He provided clear and thorough instructions during every lesson and made sure I felt fully confident and prepared before taking my driving exam. What I appreciated most was how he tailored his teaching to my specific needs, especially since I was transitioning from a foreign license. He was patient, understanding, and always took the time to explain the differences in local driving rules and expectations. Thanks to his support, I passed my test feeling well-equipped and confident. Highly recommended!

Tuihana R

The driving lesson was very educational. I learnt a lot of things that I didn't previously know. Pilato was very patient and understanding with my driving and knowledge as I informed him I was a little rusty with manuals after not driving them for just under 6 months. I worked on a few bad habits I had with his help as I didn't even know I had them. So I'm very thankful for his time and effort to explain things. Very highly recommend him if wanting to learn manual!
