I was pretty nervous about getting my licence — I'd put it off for years and wasn't sure I'd ever actually do it. A mate recommended Matt and honestly it was the best call I made. He's ex-army so he's incredibly calm under pressure, nothing rattles him, and that rubbed off on me big time. He never made me feel stupid for making mistakes, just explained things clearly and we'd move on. By the time my test came around I actually felt ready, which I did NOT expect. Passed first time. Cheers Matt, legends in Whanganui know your name for a reason! Read Less
