EXCELLENTTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Thanks Courtney for your kind offer of a professional development opportunity for L2P Mentors recently. It was thoroughly informative and your professionalism, knowledge, guidance and encouragement was excellent. Im sure many other L2P mentors would benefit from the experience as I did. Best Wishes, Kevin CaseyPosted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve been driving for many yrs so I thought I’d volunteer as a driving mentor in the L2P program which helps targeted young people qualify as licensed P-Plate drivers. To further my own ‘learner driving awareness’ I spent time with Courtney to learn how a professional driving instructor goes about teaching new drivers. In short, I thoroughly enjoyed the experience because Courtney has an encyclopaedic knowledge of Victorian road rules, is an excellent teacher/coach, is a great communicator in the way he imparts information and is clearly passionate about helping young drivers become the best they can be. If anyone was looking for a professional driving instructor, I don’t believe you would find a better one anywhere than Courtney.

I had a wonderful session with Courtenay. He is extremely passionate, informative and helpful. His generosity for all things 'driving' is amazing.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I am a L2P Mentor and was recently fortunate to be able to take advantage of Courtenay”s offer of a free mentor driving session. We met at Carlton VicRoads and after a short discussion of what I was hoping to get out of the driving session; and Courtenay outlining what we would cover in our drive, off we went. We travelled all around the local area and encountered numerous different road and traffic situations. He passed on a many tips and suggestions covering all aspects of driving that I will certainly take on board and impart to my mentees in my role as an L2P Mentor. Even though I have been driving for more than 50 years. the positive and constructive feedback I received from Courtenay was most welcome.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Courtenay gave 5-6 lessons for my 16-17yr old son when he first started driving. The first lesson I was invited to sit in the back of the car. Courtenay was extremely patient, kind and calm and informative. My son and I thought he was a fantastic teacher - would highly recommend!Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Courtenay recently spoke to a group of volunteer drivng mentors in the L2P program. His knowledge was totally comprehensive and his communication of complex issues was superb. But what impressed me most was his vision for going beyond the mechanics of driving to develop drivers who enhance the safety and efficiency of our road system and the experience of all who use it.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Fantastic service, If your looking for a skilled teacher who is passionate about his industry in road safety then look no further than Courtney from Crude. Courtney makes learning easy and comfortable for people of all ages Highly recommended ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️☄️Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Courtenay knows what he is doing and understands the rules of the road better than anyone else I know. I've been in the car with Courtenay a number of times and can confirm that his instructions are immensely helpful. I would rate 10 or even 100 stars if I had the option.
