Students pass their driving test on the first attempt
Welcome to Monika’s Driving School, Truganina’s most trusted choice for quality driving lessons. Located in Melbourne’s thriving western suburb, we’ve been helping learners of all ages and abilities build their confidence behind the wheel and pass their driving test on the first attempt.
Whether you’re a complete beginner taking your first lesson, someone overcoming driving anxiety, or an adult learner returning to the road, our experienced instructors provide personalised, patient instruction tailored to your unique needs.
Whether you’re just starting your learner permit journey or fine-tuning your skills for the driving test, we offer lessons tailored to your exact needs.
Build on basic skills with lane changing, roundabouts, traffic lights, busier roads, and more complex intersections.
Master highway driving, defensive driving techniques, night driving, adverse weather conditions, and complex traffic situations.
Focused preparation for your VicRoads driving test, including practice on test routes, mock tests, and addressing any remaining skill gaps.
Ideal for licensed drivers who haven’t driven in a while or want to build confidence in specific areas.
Help transitioning to Australian road rules and driving conditions if you hold an overseas license.
Many learners, particularly women from diverse cultural backgrounds, teenagers, and nervous beginners, feel more comfortable learning with a female driving instructor. At Monika’s Driving School, we’re proud to offer experienced female instructors who bring patience, understanding, and a nurturing teaching style to every lesson.
Led by Monika Upadhyay herself, our female driving instructor service in Truganina provides a safe, judgment-free learning environment where you can ask questions freely, make mistakes without embarrassment, and progress at your own pace.
Whether you’re a parent seeking a female instructor for your teenage daughter, a woman returning to driving after years away, or simply someone who prefers learning with a female instructor, Monikas Driving School offers the perfect solution.
Do you feel nervous at the thought of driving? Does the idea of getting behind the wheel make your heart race? You’re not alone. Driving anxiety is incredibly common, and at Monika’s Driving School, we specialize in helping fearful and nervous drivers overcome their concerns and build genuine confidence. Common Driving Fears We Help You Overcome:
Worried about causing a collision or making mistakes? Our dual-control vehicles and patient instructors ensure you're safe while you learn, gradually building your confidence.
Many learners feel intimidated by busy roads and high speeds. We introduce highway driving gradually, starting with quieter roads and progressively building up to busier traffic situations.
Nervous about the driving test itself? Our mock tests and test-route practice familiarize you with what to expect, dramatically reducing test-day nerves.
Had a previous accident or bad experience? Our compassionate instructors understand trauma-informed teaching and will work at your pace to rebuild trust in yourself and the driving process.
Simply don't believe you can do it? We've helped countless "I'll never be able to drive" students become excellent, confident drivers. You can do this!
Uncomfortable with being judged or making mistakes in front of others? Our private, one-on-one lessons provide a safe space where mistakes are learning opportunities, not sources of embarrassment.
