Who you will be learning with in Docklands
Every lesson in Docklands is taught by Callum Salgadoe, the principal instructor at Auslink and the only instructor in the business. Callum drove professionally for over twenty-two years before he began teaching, first for one of Melbourne's leading private limousine companies and then running his own operation, so the road craft he is teaching is the road craft he used for a living. He holds a Certificate IV in Transport and Logistics and a Working with Children Check.
Book a lesson and Callum is the person who turns up, every time. There is no pool of contractors and no handing you to whoever is free, which is why learners who start nervous, who are converting an overseas licence, or who are coming back to driving after years off the road tend to stay with him until they pass.
He is clearly a highly experienced instructor, particularly when it comes to helping a learner gain familiarity with the testing routes and straight-forward parking techniques. Thank you Callum for helping me pass my test in Carlton first try!!

Questions we get asked
How much does a driving instructor Docklands charge?
$75 for 60 minutes and $140 for 120 minutes, with no travel surcharge anywhere in Docklands 3008. Most Docklands learners take the five hour beginner package at $360, which is $72 an hour.
I searched driving instructor near me and got a hundred results. What makes you different?
One instructor, not a rostered pool, and the same person every lesson. Nobody has to re-learn that you struggle with multi storey car park ramps and tight bays. VicRoads accredited, Cert IV in Transport and Logistics, Working with Children checked, a 99% first time pass rate and 5.0 from 35 reviews.
Do you do automatic driving lessons Docklands?
Every lesson is automatic. A current model Toyota Corolla Hybrid with dual controls and an internal safety camera. An automatic test gives you an automatic licence, which is all most people need.
Do you offer learner driver lessons Docklands?
Yes, from the very first lesson. Road rules and the basics first: signs and line markings, where to look and when, holding a lane, deciding at an intersection. We build up to traffic once that is solid.
Are you the cheapest? I am after cheap driving lessons Docklands.
Not the cheapest, and I would be careful of anyone who is. The packages are where the value sits: $360 for five hours works out at $72. No booking fee and no travel surcharge.
Which driving school near me do you cover?
Pickup anywhere in Docklands 3008, home, school or work, plus the neighbouring suburbs. We also train on the real VicRoads test routes at Carlton, Bundoora, Deer Park and Coolaroo.
