Beginner lessons
You have never driven. The first lesson starts in a quiet street, stationary, and most people are driving unassisted by the end of it.
How a first lesson worksTest preparation
A full mock assessment on assessment-style roads, marked the way an examiner marks, and a straight answer about whether to book the real one yet.
How test prep worksRefresher lessons
You already hold a licence and have lost confidence, moved here from elsewhere, or not driven in years. Most people need between one and four.
How refreshers workFrom your first nervous reverse to a calm test day, every lesson with ACT Capital Driving School is built so you drive with total confidence. We focus on the small wins (smoother braking, cleaner mirror checks, the parallel park that finally clicks) that turn a hesitant beginner into a relaxed, capable driver behind the wheel.
We run automatic driving lessons across NSW and the ACT from our base in Chisholm, Canberra. Around home that means Chisholm, Tuggeranong, Woden, Belconnen, Gungahlin and Queanbeyan. Lessons use the roads the ACT driving assessment is conducted on in each district, so the intersections, roundabouts and manoeuvres you practise are the kind you will meet on the day.
Every lesson includes free door-to-door pickup and drop-off, a modern dual-controlled car, and one-on-one tuition at $100 per hour with no hidden surcharges. Whether you've never sat in the driver's seat or you're knocking the rust off after years out, we'll meet you where you are and build from there.
Test preparation here is deliberately unglamorous. We drive the roads the ACT assessment actually uses, run the manoeuvres assessors mark until they are boring, and put you through a mock assessment under test conditions. You will be told plainly whether you are ready, including when the honest answer is not yet, because a learner who sits an assessment two lessons early pays for it twice. Our guide to what the ACT assessment involves sets out what examiners mark and why learners most often fail it.
Pick a time that fits your week, pay securely online, and we'll take care of the rest. Lessons run seven days a week with morning, afternoon, evening and weekend slots, so you can drive when it suits you, not when the calendar allows. See available times or talk to an instructor first.
