I honestly couldn't recommend Ronny enough! From the very beginning, he was incredibly patient, encouraging, and profesional. Ronny made me a much more confident driver with his endless support and is a big reason why I passed my test on my first try just today! Could not have asked for a better instructor.

I had a great experience with this driving school and passed my driving test at the Tallaght Test Centre. The lessons were well structured, the theory material was thorough, and I always felt well prepared. A big thank you to Tomek for his guidance and to Rony for the mock test, which gave me a valuable second perspective before the exam. I highly recommend this driving school to anyone looking for professional instructors and excellent preparation for their driving test.

I would really recommend Ronny to anyone willing to take driving lessons or mock tests. He's a great instructor and answered all the queries I had before the test. Had an amazing mock test session with him. He pointed exactly where I was making mistakes and also the aspects I was really good in. This not only helped me correct those mistakes, but also boosted my confidence before test which I eventually did pass. Absolutely recommend

Ronny has been exceptional in making me feel comfortable during driving and has been biggest positive so far in my driving journey. I reached out to Ronny after after a failed test and some unresolved feedback from previous instructor. He has helped me prevent most of my failed first test grade 2s, and made me feel confident to the pass the second test. Art of driving makes roadsnl safer and drivers happy.

Highly recommend Art of driving. Ronny’s lessons and mock tests really helped me and built my confidence. He was patient, explained everything in a simple way, and made sure I was fully prepared for the test.

I can’t recommend Ronny enough. I passed my driving test on the first attempt, and a huge part of that was down to his teaching. From day one, he was incredibly patient and always took the time to explain things properly. He has a great eye for detail and would pick up on small things that made a big difference to my driving. Even when I made mistakes, he stayed calm and helped me understand how to improve without ever making me feel stressed. His lessons really helped build my confidence, and by the time my test came around, I felt well prepared and comfortable behind the wheel. If you’re looking for a driving instructor who genuinely cares and wants you to succeed, I would highly recommend Ronny and The Art of Driving school.

Huge thank you to Ronny, for teaching safe driving and helping prepare for the test! Ronny identified the root cause of most of my mistakes; once I fixed it, my driving improved significantly and was able to pass the test. (In my case it was nerves and being in a hurry.) I can highly recommend the Art of Driving school and Ronny for great all-round test prep coverage, lessons, mock tests and just a good overall experience!

Ronny is an amazing instructor. From day one he picked up all my issues and fixed them one by one, with repeated practice. With his guidance and mock test, I was able to pass my driving test. He is very professional as well. He made sure he had enough availability before my test, so that I could practice according to my convenient time slots with him. He prepared me very well before the test, nitpicked on all my mistakes on turning, roundabouts, observation and progress, and made me feel confident before the test Thanks Ronny

Learning to drive with Tomek was such a positive experience. He is calm, supportive, and always explains everything clearly and thoroughly, setting you up for success. His attention to detail and excellent teaching methods helped build my confidence with every lesson. Tomek genuinely cares about his students and always goes above and beyond to help them become safe, confident, and skilled drivers—not just to pass the test. He was also always reachable by text whenever I had questions, and he was incredibly quick to respond. His support outside of lessons was just as valuable as during them. I am so grateful for his guidance and would highly recommend Tomek to anyone starting their driving journey.

I did my pre-test lessons with Ronny and he did an amazing job. He helped my clean up my driving and fix mistakes like improper road positioning and insufficient observation. He also gave many tips that i hadn't been told before and helped me prepare for driving in normal life, not just for the test. It was very easy to book lessons and all my messages were responded to very quickly. Ronny definitely played a large part in me passing my test and i would highly recommend him to anyone learning to drive.

I had a great experience with Art of Driving, and a big thank you to Ronny, who is the main reason I passed my driving test. Roundabouts were always a big confusion for me, and I didn’t have enough confidence going into the test. Ronny’s lessons and mock tests really helped me understand things clearly and build my confidence. He was patient, explained everything in a simple way, and made sure I was fully prepared for the test. Highly recommend Art of Driving, especially Ronny, if you’re looking for a supportive and effective instructor.

Passed my driving test in the first go! Ronny is an absolute gent and a pure deadly instructor. He’s not in it for the money or dragging lessons out — he genuinely wants you to become a confident, safe driver. With other instructors you might hear: “Ah we’ll tackle that next lesson, we’ve loads to get through” — which means more lessons. Ronny’s response: “Right, we’re doing this again” — and you’ll repeat the manoeuvre over and over until it’s burned into your brain. Just proper teaching that actually works. Can’t recommend Art of Driving – Ronny enough. If you’re learning around South Dublin, you’re in safe hands. Fair play Ronny — all the best, mate! 🚗🙌

Five stars experience for sure!! My instructor Tomek was skilled not only in teaching but also was flexible in scheduling lessons. He was willing to go above and beyond so make sure lessons and the exam session could be booked at times that were more convenient to me. I also appreciated his way of teaching someone how to drive! It was not only for the driving test but he also teaches you tips that is crucial for the rest of your life. I passed on my first attempt, 100% recommend!

I can’t thank Ronny enough, he was the key reason I passed my driving test. I initially went to a different school but didn’t learn much. After just a few lessons with Ronny, he quickly corrected my coasting issues and clearly explained what examiners expect from a driver. His guidance gave me the confidence and understanding I needed to pass. I would highly recommend Ronny to any learner driver.

I was so worried about taking the driving test as I’ve been driving for a while and aquired some bad habits that were hard to get rid of. I reached out to Ronny to help me with automatic lessons thinking it will be easier for me to pass and overcome some of the bad habits – after the first 2 lessons he encouraged me to take it he manual test and continue my lessons with manual driving. I also really appreciated his availability trying to make lessons work with our busy schedules. I passed my test on the first attempt and would highly recommend Ronny to anyone looking to learn or improve their driving skills

The best instructor out there. I can say that with confidence because I switched 5 instructors before finding Tomek. While other instructors were impatient, sometimes rude and discouraging, and some were pushing for extra lessons, my experience with Art of Driving, especially Tomek was very different. I can't recommend him enough. He is knowledgeable, patient, kind, and very encouraging. Don't waste time with bad instructors and book with Art of Driving that is what I tell any friend. Thanks again!

Tomek and Ronny are outstanding instructors. Although I’ve been driving for over 20 years, I had to start from scratch in Ireland, and they made the whole process much smoother.

Hands down the best driving school I had contact in Dublin. Before finding Art of Driving School I had classes with a smaller and a big company which where nowhere close to the experience with them. They can build a program specially for you and focus on all your improvement areas and also very rich for how you should tackle the exam itself, besides being extremely accommodating with the bookings. Extremely recommended

After 11 years of absolutely dreading driving I finally just passed my test first time thanks to Ronny. I’ve had so many instructors over the years and eventually gave up until I started driving again with Ronny after a very long ten year break. He is truly the best there is, he ironed out any bad habits I had and explained everything so well and in such a kind way, I was never afraid to ask questions and I never spent the whole lesson panicking over making a mistake like I was with previous instructors. He knows absolutely everything there is to know and every lesson was a good laugh too. I 100% could not have done it without Ronny, I’m so delighted to actually be driving after years of panic every time I got into the car. I will miss our lessons hugely, the biggest thank you ever Ronny!

Ronny is definitely the best teacher for learning the rules of the road and for passing the driving exam. I wasn't new to driving but coming from another country I had to process a brand new licence and learning to drive in Ireland is a completely different story. I passed my driving test the first time with very little marks and a congrats from the tester. All thanks to Ronny's classes! Highly recommend for experienced drivers and I'm sure he is also amazing for beginners

I chose Ronny based on the Google reviews. I had the option to book through the company and pay later, but I preferred to go with someone who had good recommendations. By coincidence, I saw a photo of my client's grandson on Google, mentioned it to him, and he confirmed that Ronny was great. He had been having problems for 2 years and with Ronny, he managed to pass. I need to tell my story: after the first day of class, I thought that despite all the good reviews, I wouldn't be able to learn with his style, very playful and sometimes loud. So I cancelled and had one Irish instructor and then one Brazilian, and still didn't feel confident to take the test. I didn't drive in Brazil despite getting my license, and after the first day of class with Ronny, his words encouraged me to drive the company car that was already available. So after only one day of class with him and going through two more instructors, I thought, "I need that confidence back for the test, and I need to believe in the reviews I read, since I haven't progressed much so far." I called him, he asked what happened, I explained, and we scheduled our lessons and the mock test. I admit there were days I cried, because I am too sensetive, I cry for everything, but as he said, his intention was to make me learn, and I am very grateful, to God, to my dedication, and to Ronny, who with his jokes, laughter and shouts helped me pass on the first try. And besides that, our conversations about him fasting encouraged me to start again, with the goal of feeling more energetic, and I'm already very happy with the result, by skipping breakfast. Congratulations, Ronny, on your work, and thank you for everything.

Today, I'm thrilled to share that I passed my driving test in Tallaght, and I owe a huge part of my success to Ronny. His expert guidance and unwavering support prepared me not just to pass the test, but to become a responsible and confident driver. I recently had the privilege of learning to drive with Ronny, and I can confidently say that he is one of the best driving instructors in Dublin. From the moment I stepped into his car, I felt at ease and confident in his abilities. Ronny possesses an incredible depth of knowledge about driving techniques, road safety, and traffic laws. He patiently guided me through every aspect of driving, from mastering basic maneuvers to tackling challenging situations with ease. His clear explanations and practical demonstrations made learning enjoyable and effective. What truly sets Ronny apart is his genuine passion for teaching. He goes above and beyond to ensure that his students not only pass their driving tests but also become safe, confident drivers for life. His patience, encouragement, and unwavering support gave me the confidence I needed to succeed. Moreover, Ronny's sense of humor added an extra layer of enjoyment to each lesson. His jokes and light-hearted approach helped alleviate any nerves and made the learning experience even more memorable. I cannot thank Ronny enough for his dedication and expertise. If you're looking for a driving instructor who is knowledgeable, patient, and passionate about teaching—and who will make you laugh along the way—look no further than Ronny. Thank you, Ronny, for everything!

A friend recommended me Art of Driving for my classes and I couldn't be happier. Being a driver for many years and finding myself in the position of relearning everything to adapt to different rules and different side of the road was not easy, but Ronny made it manageable and fun. He advised me carefully and ensured I considered all the details to drive safely in Ireland. The sessions were adapted to my learning needs, focusing on what I needed to practice more… and guess what? I passed my test on the first try! Highly recommended!!

Exceptional Experience with Art of Driving School I recently completed my driving lessons with Ronny at Art of Driving School, and I must say, it was an exceptional experience. From start to finish, Ronny proved himself to be not only an outstanding instructor but also a genuinely kind and patient individual. Throughout my lessons, Ronny demonstrated an impressive level of skill and expertise. His knowledge of driving techniques and road safety was evident in every session, providing me with a solid foundation to become a confident and responsible driver. What truly stood out to me was Ronny's unwavering patience and encouragement. Learning to drive can be nerve-wracking, but Ronny's calm demeanor and positive attitude helped alleviate any anxiety I had. He took the time to explain concepts thoroughly, never making me feel rushed or overwhelmed. Furthermore, Ronny's kindness and friendliness made each lesson enjoyable. He created a supportive learning environment where I felt comfortable asking questions and making mistakes, knowing that he would offer constructive feedback without judgment. I wholeheartedly recommend Art of Driving School to anyone in search of a top-notch driving instructor. Whether you're a complete beginner or looking to brush up on your skills, Ronny's professionalism, expertise, and genuine care for his students make him the ideal choice. Thank you, Ronny, for helping me become a safe and confident driver—I couldn't have done it without you!

Frequently Asked Questions

How many driving lessons do I need to take

If you are a first-time learner, you must complete the Essential Driver Training (EDT) program, which consists of 12 one-hour lessons with an Approved Driving Instructor (ADI). While this is the mandatory minimum, most learners require additional lessons and practice in private to be ready for the test. The Road Safety Authority (RSA) recommends spreading out your EDT sessions and getting plenty of practice in between.

What is Essential Driver Training (EDT)?

The EDT is a mandatory training course for all first-time learner permit holders in Ireland. It is designed to teach you the fundamental skills and behaviors needed to become a safe driver. Your ADI will log each of your 12 lessons in your EDT logbook, which you will need to complete before you can book your driving test.

Can I get a provisional license in Ireland?

In Ireland, the equivalent of a provisional license is a learner permit. You can apply for your first learner permit after you have passed the Driver Theory Test and are at least 17 years old. You can apply for it online through the NDLS (National Driver Licence Service) website or in person at an NDLS centre.

How do I apply for the Driver Theory Test?

You can book your Driver Theory Test online. It assesses your knowledge of the Rules of the Road and traffic signs. This is the first step you must take before you can apply for your learner permit.

What should I bring to my first driving lesson?

You must bring your valid learner permit with you to every lesson. We also advise to wear comfortable, closed-toe shoes and your glasses or contact lenses if you need them. As your instructor, we will also need to see your EDT logbook.

What happens if I fail my driving test?

First of all, do not worry, it is a very common experience. Your examiner will give you a detailed report explaining where you lost marks. As your instructors, we will use that feedback to create a tailored lesson plan to focus on those areas. You can re-apply for your test after a waiting period, and we will ensure you are fully prepared for the next attempt.

How do I book a driving test?

You can book your practical driving test online through the RSA website. That can be done only after you have completed all 12 EDT lessons and have held your learner permit for at least six months. It is crucial to consult with your instructor before booking to ensure you are both available and that you are ready.

What maneuvers will I be asked to perform on my driving test?

On the day of your test, you may be asked to perform one of the following: a reverse around a corner, a hill start or a turnabout. The examiner will also test your knowledge of the car’s controls and might ask you a few questions from the Rules of the Road.

What is the legal requirement for practicing outside of lessons?

To practice driving in Ireland, a learner permit holder must be accompanied by a person who has held a full, valid driving license in the same category for at least two years. The accompanying driver must also display ‘L’ plates on the car. Such a practice is essential for building skills and confidence.

What happens on the day of the driving test?

Your instructor will typically meet you for a brief warm-up lesson before the test. You will then drive to the test center and meet the examiner. The test will include questions about the car and the Rules of the Road, a brief visual inspection of the car, followed by the practical driving test, which lasts approximately 30-40 minutes.
