What makes Stacey different
We’ll do a drive‑thru
No driving test will ever ask you to order lunch. But a tight turn in, a kerb you cannot see, stopping with your window level with the person serving you, and someone waiting behind you while you do it — that is a real skill, and the test never asks for it. Stacey watched her own daughter struggle with it, so it is on the list.
And your first soft serve or slushie is on Stacey.
Passing the test is the point of the lessons. It is not the point of driving.
The car
More about the carLearn in Stacey’s Suzuki Swift
A white Suzuki Swift automatic, small enough to be easy to place on the road and in a parking bay. You can sit your driving test in it too, so the car you are assessed in is the car you learned in.
Your instructor
Meet Stacey, your female driving instructor
Hi, I’m Stacey. I’m a female driving instructor teaching one-to-one across Adelaide’s north-eastern suburbs, and you’ll have the same instructor for every lesson. Some learners and parents specifically want a woman in the passenger seat, and that is what I offer. My goal is to help you feel calm, confident, and test-ready without the stress.

Learning here
Learning to drive in the north‑east
The north-eastern suburbs are an unusually good place to learn. Within a few kilometres you can go from an empty residential street to a multi-lane arterial, and practise roundabouts, hills and a busy shopping-centre carpark without driving across the city to find them.
Quiet streets to start on
First lessons happen on the wide, regular streets of the older suburbs around Modbury, laid out in the 1950s and 60s with generous verges, clear sightlines and very little traffic outside school hours.
Every skill within a few suburbs
Golden Grove is built around roundabouts and long curves. Tea Tree Gully climbs into the hills, so hill starts and blind crests are ordinary driving rather than a special exercise. North East Road adds lane changes and signalised intersections once you’re ready for them.
The roads you’ll keep driving
Lessons run where you live, so the practice transfers straight to everyday driving. You learn the roundabout you’ll use every week, and each lesson is planned around what you personally need to work on.
