I cannot recommend Bruce enough, he is amazing at what he does. As someone that suffers from anxiety and esp when it comes to drive i was dreading having to do lessons but thankfully Bruce understood what i was up against and helped put my nerves at ease. He is especially good at movie quotes and dad jokes which helps lighten the mood when you are feeling tense. At 40yrs old i finally got my licence and i cannot thank you enough 😊

I can’t recommend Bruce highly enough. After 27 years of fear around driving, I genuinely never thought I’d get my licence but Bruce made it possible.
He went above and beyond in every single lesson and always made me feel supported, never rushed or judged. It was clear from the start that Bruce genuinely wanted to see me succeed, it was never about the money, it was about helping me overcome something that had held me back for so long.
Every lesson was fun, encouraging, and challenging in the best way. Bruce knew exactly when to push me and when to reassure me, and that balance made all the difference. His patience, confidence in me, and constant encouragement completely changed how I feel about driving.
If you’re anxious, scared, or think you’ll “never be able to drive,” Bruce is the instructor you want. I’ll be forever grateful

Absolutely fabulous driving instructor. So calm, knowledgeable and is all about the students learning and not about making money. We cannot thank Bruce enough for all his efforts. Can’t recommend HIGHLY enough.

I recently had the pleasure of taking driving lessons with Bruce, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. From the very first lesson, Bruce demonstrated exceptional professionalism, patience, and expertise and as im an anxious person he made me feel so comfortable and supported through all of my lessons. Bruce’s approach to teaching was both thorough and supportive and he provided clear, concise instructions and made sure to explain the reasoning behind each maneuver and rule. This helped me not just memorize steps but truly understand how to drive safely and confidently on the road. Thankyou so much Bruce!

As a first time parent to a L plater, Bruce was amazing from start to finish. From the first phone call only a few weeks into our journey, Bruce took the time to explain everything from both a parent and student perspective and always kept us informed so we got the most out of lessons. Bruce is down to earth, VERY patient and is genuine in wanting his students to learn, be safe and succeed. After each lesson with Bruce, there was a noticeable improvement in our daughter’s overall skill set, sequencing and confidence. Thanks, Bruce! See you for the next one!

Leading up to my son getting his Ls, I was not at all sure what to expect from a driving instructor these days. I spoke to so many people, searched online, and one day my friend recommended Bruce, who was teaching her daughter to drive. I trust her judgement and from our first phone conversation, I knew I could trust Bruce, too. As many of the other reviews say, Bruce teaches with patience, thoughtfulness, clear and concise directions, and also with humour. It’s obvious he genuinely wants his students to succeed and to be responsible, attentive drivers. Now that my son has his Ps, when he’s walking out the door to drive by himself I say “imagine Bruce is in the car with you”!
I highly recommend Learn with Peckham’s Driving School. Just make sure that if you don’t have a dog Bruce can cuddle and play with when he visits that you borrow one from a neighbour. 🙂
