Unbelievable service I have had a few driving instructors and this was the best i had - so good I passed first time. Very fair and good at helping. Strict but in a good way because it really helps you get better. Lovely person as well. Cannot recommend enough.

I initially booked Tahira through my cousin, a previous student of hers that also passed his test. Her style of teaching is phenomenal. Tahira is the epitome of taking pride in her work; ensuring that her students are test ready to the best of their abilities is more paramount than financial gain. I was naturally a nervous driver, however Tahira played a crucial role in helping me overcome my anxiety on the road. Her patient guidance and expertise gave me the confidence to navigate the streets with ease, I could not thank her enough. I would highly recommend booking with her if she's available in your area! :)

Let down by previous instructors who were inconsistent with effective teaching. I was exhausted with learning to drive until I met Tahira. Due to my previous experience with Berkshire instructors I was very sceptical on my first lesson. To my pleasant suprise Tahira’s teaching strategy was the best I’ve ever seen. She taught the basics, asked critical thinking questions, explored theory and practical. So thank you Tahira for being an excellent teacher.

Deciding to learn to drive at 30 has not been without it's challenges, but I'm very pleased to say that this has been a complete success. I could not have achieved this result without the guidance of Tahira. She is an exceptionally patient and thorough instructor. Being taught to drive to her standard made the exam itself seem like nothing. My sincere gratitude to her for her time and advice

Today I made it happened! Thank’s to my very patient driving instructor Tahira. I only had a couple of lesson with her but I learned a lot for just few days. I couldn’t believe that I passed the test because I was so nervous. Tahira helped build my confidence and gave me a lot of reassurance that I can do it. For all new learners I will recommend BSM especially my instructor Tahira.

Tahira (Tara) was such a wonderful teacher! She got me to pass the test in a few short sessions and was such a delight to work with. Would certainly recommend!

Tahira is an incredibly experienced, fair driving instructor whose patience and strict style of teaching was invaluable and helped me to pass my driving test with zero faults. She had good communication and would respond to texts straight away which was also something I appreciated. All in all, my experience was positive and I would recommend her to anyone in need of a driving instructor

I simply don’t have words that can describe and pay gratitude to my amazing instructor Tahira enough. She is absolutely professional, patient and ensures to fine tune your areas of weaknesses. I have been lucky to have her as my instructor and thankful to her for transforming me into a confident driver on the road. I have passed my exam in first attempt and truly enjoyed entire experience of learning. She has helped me and my 2 sisters pass our test. Thanks for giving me life lesson for letting go bad habits and subsiding fears. Respect to you for making this dream possible into reality.

Tahira was absolutely amazing at helping me feel at ease with driving. As an anxious driver, I couldn’t have asked for a better instructor to help me pass!

Tahira is by far and above the best driving instructor you could possibly hope for. She is professional, thorough, and has a great sense of humour which makes learning enjoyable. She prepared me perfectly for the test and I passed with flying colours. Tahira is simply incredible and she is the best you can get. If Tahira has availability, don’t have a second thought - book her.

I had an amazing instructor called Michael albas based around sidmouth, Honiton, ottery and so on, he was so calm, and sweet, he was able to make suggestions and gave me great advice that was so helpful, I am really great full to have had him with me yesterday as I passed my test first time without him I would know what to do, all I can say is he is wonderful and if you feel nervous or stressed he is very calm and reassuring best think I did was decide to book a few lessons with him, I loved that Michael text me the night before to make sure I had my licence ready with a little message telling me to sleep well and that tomorrows the big day. Michael you are wonderful thank you so much for helping me I appreciate it so much, I couldn't hold back my excitement with you while telling you I passed, I recon your great I will however miss our chats.

Bahrije was an amazing instructor. I passed first time due to her excellent teaching! Very proactive and friendly. She is very caring and also teaches alot of things beyond the “test” things that we need. She always wants the best for the student and will work hard to give as much support as you need. Thank you so much BSM and Bahrije for everything

Hi, I passed the driving test recently with only 1 minor fault! I had John Banks as an instructor and I thought he was fantastic. He was always on time and made sure to text when he was outside. Whenever he happened to be driving, he would always point out exactly what he was doing so you could still learn effectively even if you weren't the one driving at that point- he would only drive on the first maybe second lesson and after the driving test. He always made sure that I understood everything that was going on and would encourage questions during every lesson. If there was something that you wanted to go over/ try e.g. reverse bay park, he would make sure that it was a priority until you were comfortable with said manoeuvre, etc. Minor faults made by you (the learner) would always be pointed out so you know where to focus on for your test. Basically, John Banks was a great instructor and I would recommend him to anyone and everyone!
