 … At 33 years of age I decided to tackle my fear of driving and take lessons. I could not have chosen a better driving instructor than Dimitri! His patience, knowledge, professionalism and thoroughness definitely gave my driving confidence a boost and – having never driven a car prior to our lessons - I passed my test on the first attempt with a 100% mark. Dimitri’s lessons are tailored to suit each individual student’s level of experience and through his organised and detailed lesson plans you can see how your progress is tracking. Dimitri’s teaching method emphasises practical, paced and safe driving techniques which I found invaluable as a tentative beginner driver and his mock tests are a fantastic way to build your confidence levels prior to your driving test (he is a very strict mock tester!) If you want to pass your driving test and gain the skills to be safe and confident driver, Dimitri and his Formula Driving School are your best bet.
Bridie Costigan  I highly recommend Formula Driving School. I am 50 years of age and had never driven before in my life. After 14 lessons I passed first go. As I did not have access to another vehicle these were the only lessons I had. Dimitri is very professional and passionate about his work. Dimitri is also extremely knowledgeable about the RTA testing methods and what is required to pass your Driving Test. If you wish to obtain your Licence quickly and hassel free as possible Formula Driving is a wise Investment.
John Middleton  I passed my driving test on my first attempt with a 100% mark! I just can\'t believe how much my driving skills have improved since I had lessons with Dmitri. He is a patient, encouraging, organised teacher and has great attention to detail. His advice is absolutely amazing and I would recommend that anybody get lessons from him if you want to pass the driving test easily!! I can\'t thank him enough and I actually miss having lessons with him

Hi Dmitri, Thank you for all of your effort and true professionalism. I really enjoyed learning under your thoughtful supervision and will be recommending you to my friends. Went driving today and felt ever so confident about it. Mindaugas Skavronskas  I just passed the test on my first attempt and I know I couldnt have done it without the excellent training I recieved from Dmitri Sogrine. His teaching method is perfectly paced. He is professional, patient and his course will get even the most tentative learner through the RTA Gauntlet. You will learn everything from basic maneuvers and road rules through to practicing the real RTA routes. The mock/practice tests see Dmitri acting as a very strict RTA officer and they are without a doubt the best way to build confidence before going for the real deal. I learnt so much from doing this course and frankly I'm kind of sad its over. Thanks for everything Dmitri. I will recommend Formula driving school to anyone who'll listen :)..
Tyson Elliott  Dmitri is very patient and understanding instructor. He has a good structured lesson and will adapt based on how you progress on your driving. Not once was he late during our sessions and is always 5-10 minutes early. I enrolled in his 10hr package to maximize time and money, I enjoyed it so much that I got another 10hr package which also includes the mock exams. The mock exams are pure genius! This gave me confidence when the actual exam came and passed with flying colors (98% score!). When my wife is ready to learn to drive, I will not hesitate to enroll her with Dmitri. In fact, I will insist to get Dmitri as her driving instructor!Do yourself a favor and schedule a lesson with Dmitri. You will not regret it. This is the best decision you will make if you want to learn how to drive properly! Thanks Dmitri and more power to Driveformula!
Arvin  I found Formula Drive's website when looking for a reliable and professional driving school after having bad experiences with other instructors. After the first class it was clear that this was what I was looking for. Dmitri is professional in every aspect, from his punctuality to the structure of his classes. His teaching method is progressive, which is particularly important for people used to drive overseas, and the mock tests are just genius.

Hanna Holliday  Dmitri has been a brilliant driving instructor; before him, I had never stepped in the driver's seat of a car before and two months on, I was confident enough to pass my test on the first attempt! The course is not only good value for money, but I was always learning something and I was never bored. Dmitri made each lesson fun and engaging, and because he puts so much effort in and cares so much, he really makes students want to do well. He is personable, friendly and honest - he would let me know each mistake I made and how to correct it and he was determined that I drive to the best of my abilities. I will definitely be recommending Dmitri to everyone I know.
Thanks for all your time and patience, Dmitri! Stephen Walsh  Over the course of learning to drive I have had three different instructors and Dmitri was without a doubt the best. He was patient, friendly and still very professional. His personal techniques and rules made it simple and easy to learn even the most difficult of maneuvers. He was more than happy to practice my weaker points until I was confident and this confidence allowed me to pass my test on my first attempt. I would recommend him very highly. Thanks Dmitri!
Roy Bhasin  I cannot thank Dmitri enough for all his efforts in helping me to get my red P! As a teacher he is highly experienced, patient and meticulous. He constantly makes you aware of your surroundings and how to respond correctly. He uncovers your weak points and works on them until they are no longer an issue. 'Formula' is a perfect name for the school - there is a correct set way of completing every manoeuvre and handling every situation, and Dmitri teaches you so that the correct responses become second nature. And I will miss our hours cruising around! I had a lot of fun with Dmitri, and he really cares about his students. I've witnessed nervousness, delight and disappointment on his part based on how his students perform. My time with Formula Driving School was a pleasure and it got results. I have already recommended Dmitri to friends who are now his students, and would not hesitate to recommend Formula Driving School again in the future. Thanks Dmitri!
