Testimonials - Ricardo

Mikayla Q

Ricardo is amazing and was very helpful during all lessons and on test day. He helped calm my nerves and was patient with me throughout all lessons. He made sure that i understood and if I didn't, he'd come up with an alternative way to teach me so i could. I could not have done it without him.

Sam P

I cannot rate Ricardo high enough. He is a fantastic instructor who can make you feel at ease while learning to drive. The lessons are really enjoyable while still being a great learning experience.

Liliya T

Very good lessons, my daughter passed her first test! Highly recommended!

I highly recommend Ricardo as an instructor. I have learnt so much more in my first lesson with him than I have compared to other driving schools I have been at previously. His instructions are very clear showing diagrams and pictures to help me deeply understand. He’s very patient, friendly(while still being professional), and overall a great instructor.

Buddhi G

I highly recommend using Ricardo Shi. He is really good at not stressing out students and explains everything clearly. He is also really good at explaining manoeuvres for the test. Within 1hr of a lesson, he managed to explain lot of tips and tricks which led to Pass my driving exam. Again thank you so much my driving school and Ricardo.

Ricardo turned all my mistakes into learning moments that I can now spot and fix on my own. There was never any judgment—just a genuine wish to help me get better and become a more confident driver. He made everything easy to understand and taught in a way that really worked for me. Ricardo explained everything so clearly and in ways I’ll remember for the rest of my life.

Jackson J

My driving instructor, Ricardo, was very helpful and friendly. We had a short 30 minute lesson before my driving test, and with his help and direction, I was able to adjust to the driving school vehicle very quickly and successfully pass my test shortly after. We practiced manoeuvres, driving techniques and discussed helpful tips to drive more safely. Can highly recommend this driving school and Ricardo as an instructor. Jackson Jarvis

Ricardo helped my daughter pass her exam first go! Not only was he an excellent driver, his teaching abilities and positive attitude were second to none. He demonstrated a calm and encouraging nature which made both my daughter and myself feel immediately at ease. He gave very helpful tips for homework between sessions and before the exam itself. We will recommend Ricardo to everyone who needs a driving instructor in Brisbane! Thank you Ricardo!

Good instruction Very helpful and understanding

Charlie S

Ricardo was the best instructor I'd had for driving and I'm so glad he was able to help me get my P's first try. He was always willing to put in time to make sure I knew how to drive correctly and was extremely knowledgeable about both the skills required for driving and how the test would run (down to the streets and intersections they were likely to take me through). His funny and charismatic attitude made learning to drive and correcting errors enjoyable and took away all monotony. I cannot thank him enough for his help!

Leonna L

Very excellent teacher, provides in depth lesson on how to effectively drive

Mikayla Q

Jessica O

Ricardo was fantastic. I’ve had my learners on and off for 27 years. I booked him for three lessons including one prior to my test all within a one month period to help me fix my bad habits and guide in the right direction to success. He is very good at helping you understand where you are going wrong and teaching you how to navigate around obstacles. He sent me diagrams after lessons to help me practice in between lessons and I found that very helpful. I passed my test on the first try and I will be using him again to help my teens when they require a driving instructor. Thank you, Ricardo.

Birute S

I have found Ric to be an amazing instructor for my teenager. He has navigated very wisely in building her road awareness, orientation, self-confidence and required driving skills to help her sit for her Drivers' Test in October. My teenager has greatly appreciated Ric's wisdom in all these and areas concerning her getting her Driver's License. I can only highly recommend Ricardo Shi Herrera to be such a great influence in this arena and to see how well my teenager is responsibly 'correcting' my driving, helps me to know she is being taught very well for her driving future. Thank you so much Ric for going above and beyond what your role requires. You are such an excellent driving instructor.

Ricardo has been my favourite instructor by far

Anahira K

Ricardo is the best driver instructor by far.
There was a period where I hated driving due anxiety.. but Ricardo went over and above to ensure that I was safe. And that I would grow confident and comfortable with myself, my ability to drive and the environment I was in.
When explaining any manoeuvres Ricardo broke each one down step by step even writing them down for me so I could reflect after lessons. His instructions were always perfect, clear and concise.
He was also very responsive, answering all my questions, queries and concerns.
But most importantly he made driving enjoyable again for me.
Im one grateful student.
