Services
Bayside Driving School is owned and operated by Holger Schebera. Holger is a Government accredited and authorised driving instructor who has been teaching people to drive safely since 1988. Holger began his career in Germany as a qualified motor mechanic and later expanded into the safety area as a brake engineer for an English brake manufacturer before emigrating to Australia and becoming a driving instructor.
This question is almost impossible to answer without meeting you and assessing your skills. Many things impact on how quickly or slowly it takes for people to learn new skills. For example, a person's previous driving experience, how much practice people have and what type of practice they have - every day in all types of traffic conditions or once a week in mild or quiet traffic conditions.
We offer competitive rates and charges on Vehicle-On-Road Test (VORT) & Log-Book driving lessons, in dual controlled manual and automatic cars. We cater for all age groups and we also offer training for people who currently hold a licence but would like to expand their skills.
In addition to driving training, we offer theory lessons and car awareness training which includes checking tyre pressure, changing tyres, checking water and oil and changing light globes.

I had never driven a car before, so my husband recommended Holger to be my instructor.
Holger is very patient, encouraging and undoubtedly knowledgeable. He taught me how to drive from scratch (from how to control the steering correctly).
I was a nervous driver and he used some approaches to sort my problems out. At the end, I passed my exam and got my P plate.
Absolutely recommended đź‘Ś Would never go wrong with him!

My wife who has been driving overseas for 10 years and is quite timid suffered through 8 lessons with Holger before I realised that the stress and anxiety she was suffering from was not from driving, but from Holger himself. When I finally paid attention and cottoned on to what was going on, I found that he was rude, aggressive, never on time, and after 8 lessons said my wife was no where near ready to take her test. Well, after I sat with her for several drives over the next two weeks and using the learner driver book from Service SA to learn the technicalities of what would be tested (which Holger

Being a mature learner driver, it was important for me to have an instructor who was patient and encouraging, and one who took the time to not only teach me to drive, but to drive safely. Holger's excellent learning skills, along with clear instructions, really helped to put me at ease when anxious times set in, and for me there were a few. I have no hesitation in recommending Holger and I do so highly. If you want to be a good safe driver, or you want your child to be taught by an excellent Instructor, then Holger is a great choice.

Positive: Communication, Professionalism, Quality
Athough lengthy, the lessons were each of an incredibly high standard, and I definitely became a far better driver after having taken my lessons with Holger. Additionally, followed all necessary precautions over the COVID-19 pandemic. Highly recommend

Don’t waste your money. This guy is an absolute joke and will take advantage of your kids. Our son paid for his first lesson (after over 7 months driving experience) for Holger to tell him he would need 20 lessons and not tick off even one item in his log book. Do your research and find someone with some morals!

I would highly recommend Holger as a driving instructor. I'm a nervous driver and Holger put me at ease and was very patient with me. When I explained my anxiety about driving, he calmed me and made me feel more positive. I passed my VORT at the second attempt last week and can definitely say that Holger's teaching was instrumental in this.

I would highly recommend Holger and Bayside Driving to anyone seeking to gain their license. After a few different instructors, it was his patient and calm approach that enabled me to not only gain my license, but also hints and tips that will ensure I drive safely in the future.
Thanks heaps again Holger!

Holger helped me to become a safer and more confident driver. It took a few too many months to eventually take the test, however every single time I get into a car now, I remember to apply the system of the car control properly and safely and feel safe to drive alone.
He was also patient with me, and never once yelled or rushed me into situations that made me feel uneasy (as with previous instructors.)
Would recommend.
