Tashman Driving School

Not recommended. In my opinion, this driving school is significantly overpriced compared to many other instructors, so I strongly suggest comparing prices carefully before booking. I paid more than 600 AUD for only two hours of lessons and use of the car for the test. The owner may respond by saying I could have chosen another instructor, but that is exactly why I am recommending that people compare prices first so they do not end up in the same situation I experienced. Another thing that personally raised concerns for me was that payment was requested in cash only. I also noticed that almost every negative review seems to be dismissed as “fake” or “a lie.” At some point, if multiple customers are describing similar experiences, it may be worth reflecting on the feedback instead of blaming every reviewer.

I had another driving school (EZLICENCE) cancel 3 bookings on me last minute leaving me without a car for my test the day before, and Anthony was able to fit me in for a 2 hour lesson and the driving test booking. I would've had to reschedule my driving test and probably wait another month for a test booking. The lesson went smoothly, Anthony is a very good teacher, with simple yet effective methods, and you will definitely enjoy driving his new car.

It’s my first time driving, Anthony really helped me to learn how to drive. It was a great experience. I recommend him.

I took a one-hour lesson to familiarize myself with the Chatswood area. I clearly informed Anthony in my message that I wanted to learn the driving test routes in Chatswood. However, only after we started the lesson and I gave him the money, he told me that there are many routes that Chatswood service generates randomly for each customer. Before we started driving, while I was sitting behind the wheel, he pushed me to book more lessons, arguing that there might not be any slots available if I refused to book now. I had to tell him more than twice that I needed time to think. Lastly, I felt uncomfortable and unsafe as he started discussing political topics and sharing his political opinions. I am leaving a four-star review only for the good, clean, and new car. I enjoyed driving it.

I do not recommend this school. The reason is that the old guy working with them of 65 years age scammed me of 100 dollars. So the details are these, I booked for 2 hours for 200 dollars. 1 hour lesson and other 1 hour as agreed that he will show them that he is my instructor and take the responsibility as well as in case I fail the test he will take my car back( I live around 1km away from the test center). So he asked for 250 dollars which was not reasonable so we agreed on 200 dollars. I paid the money in advance. We started the lesson at 1. 15 we were in the test center. While going to the test center the instructor told me that he will not take my car back and if you fail the test you just say nothing to the examiner and walk away quickly as he cannot lie that he will take the car. I said nothing because after a few moments I was going to have a test and I don’t wanna argue at that moment because of the nervousness. Then he quickly said he was going to use the bathroom and never came back. I started my test at 2.40 and he wasn’t any where neither he told the NSW that he is my instructor. I want to clarify that I used my own car as well. So when I finished the test and enterin
