Best driving instructor ever!!
Mali helped me learn to drive as a beginner and I couldn’t be happier with my lessons and experiences. I successfully passed my test and am so grateful to her for her help :)

Started lessons with Mali at the end of 2025, from the start she showed great patience with me as I’d never drove as a child an was quite nervous having my first drives in the busy streets of Carlton.
Had about 10+ lessons and was able to pass my drivers test first time, thanks for your teaching Mali, couldn’t have done it without you!

Mali was a fabulous driving instructor. I’m 24 and was so nervous to be learning to drive in adulthood, but she made me feel so safe and comfortable. She is friendly, she keeps her cool and she doesn’t make you feel stupid for asking questions. I have loved driving with her and and am so grateful to now have my license! Thank you Mali

Mali is an incredible instructor
Mali is an incredibly helpful driving instructor she genuinely cares for your success. She gives really helpful feedback and she’s very polite and never raises her voice. I would easily recommend her to any new learners.

Mali was fantastic to learn from.
Mali is always generous with her knowledge and time.
If you’re looking for that driving school to take the next step and get your License this is the school to go to!
Mali was a fantastic instructor. She made me feel incredibly confident on the road and never hesitated to answer all my questions and queries. Her calm demeanour made being in the car less stressful and I couldn’t recommend her more highly.
Mali is awesome
Mali is an excellent instructor, very calm and patient. She will help you get your licence and make you a safe and confident driver. Mali has an excellent knowledge of all the road rules and VicRoads testing requirements. She will teach in a way that helps you pass the test but also make you a really good driver. I highly recommend her.

Mali is an excellent driving teacher
So glad I learned to drive with Mali from Skillz2Drive! She’s calm and caring, and really instilled confidence in me as a driver, and helped me pass the driving test first go! Really grateful to have learned from her, plus she is excellent company in the car to chat with! Thanks Mali :)
Mali is the best!
Mali is an amazing instructor! She’s very kind, patient and professional! She kept me calm and instilled confidence in me.
She worked with me over the course of 13 weeks and was made sure that timings of the classes were ideal for both of us. While driving and passing the goal, having good experience and not being fearful of the roads or the test were a big part of our lessons. I also enjoyed our conversations in the car, she is interested in my life and shows that she cares outside of the lessons.
Highly recommend Mali! She’s an amazing instructor, incredibly patient and supportive!
I had an amazing teacher named Mali, she helped teach me everything I needed to know to pass, always staying diligent, I would have passed without her
Highly recommend
I highly recommend Skillz2drive! Mali is a wonderful instructor who is very patient, friendly and knowledgeable. The entire process of the drive test was made easier by her expertise.
Expert teaching
I learned to drive thanks to Mali at Skillz2Drive. The initial lessons made me feel comfortable behind the wheel and showed me how to be a safe driver. When I was comfortable driving I started supplementing my lessons with additional driving time where my dad supervising. My dad quickly taught me some bad habits. Fortunately, those bad habits were patiently remedied by Mali before the test that I passed :)
Passed on my first go!
I would absolutely recommend Skillz2Drive. My instructor, Mali, was very patient and friendly, and super helpful. Wouldn't have been able to do it without her!

Such a real professional and qualified instructor!
I passed my driving test on the first attempt at VicRoad Carlton yesterday. I’m very thankful to my instructor, Mali. She is a real professional and qualified instructor. Her beautiful smile and her positive encouragement have warmly made me be successful in my first driving test. I highly recommend Mali to everyone who wishes to become a good driver in Melbourne/Australia or to get a L/P/Full License from VicRoad.
Mali is the best driving instructor possible!

Amazing instructor!
Mali is the best driving instructor I have ever had. She is a wonderful teacher and great company during the process. I felt prepared and reassured throughout the whole process. Anyone who wants to learn how to drive in inner Melbourne or northern suburbs should definitely learn with her!
Fantastic experience
I did 8 lessons with Mali who was absolutely incredible. I was a very anxious driver who had never driven in Australia before and Mali made sure to make me feel very comfortable from the get go. She gives fantastic feedback and is so kind and patient. I failed my first test due to a mistake I made at the very end but Mali was confident in my abilities and made sure I booked my next test ASAP. I did a warm up lesson this morning and just passed my driving test!
Thank you for making me a safe and confident driver, correcting all my mistakes and believing in me. I'm going to miss our chats :)
I HIGHLY recommend Mali!

Incredible experience with skillz2drive and mali!
I cannot recommend Skillz2Drive and Mali specifically highly enough! From the very first lesson, she was incredibly patient, kind, and supportive, creating a calm and encouraging environment that made learning to drive an enjoyable experience. Her wonderful people skills and deep knowledge of road rules made every session both informative and fun.
Mali went out of her way to boost my confidence, offering clever tips and tricks — especially for perfecting parking — that made all the difference. Thanks to her expert guidance and encouragement, I passed my driving test on my first attempt, despite feeling very nervous.
Whether you’re learning to drive for the first time or just brushing up before your test, I wholeheartedly recommend Skillz2Drive and Mali. She is truly outstanding at what she does!
Mali is the best - and I couldn't be more grateful for her. Not only an incredible instructor, but also a sweet and wonderful human being. I've spent the last 2-3 years learning with her, on-and-off, and in the last 9 months especially is where she really helped me push through the fear I had built up and encourage me to book the test. On my third attempt (yesterday) I passed, and I really do owe it to her. She made me feel safe, reassured and confident. Highly highly highly recommend Mali as an instructor!

Best instrcutor ever!
I never thought in a million years that I’d be able to get my licence! But Mali completely changed that for me. She helped me stay calm and eliminated the stress I thought was impossible to overcome. Her patience, reassurance, and calm demeanour made all the difference, even when I made mistakes. I’m incredibly thankful for her support! she’s literally everything you could hope for in a driving instructor. I couldn’t recommend her enough!
