“Trustpilot reviews Thanks for your review! Automatic Driving School logo Automatic Driving School Your review is pending.Read more Abigail Davies 0 reviews GB Rated 5 out of 5 stars Mark is a legend Mark is a legend! I would highly recommend him for those who are nervous about driving or lack the confidence, as he's Calm and collected as well as knowledgeable about what he's teaching you; so even when your just driving about your learning little things that really help in the long run from spacial awareness between yourself and parked cars as well as people around them to weather changes affecting how you would approach situations. Personally, I think two of the best things he does is: 1. how he explains what he means with a real situation or personal experience and uses diagrams as well eg parallel parking. 2. He is friendly and focused on you and your driving experience so even if its been a shocker of a drive full of mistake's he will try to find positive parts even when it's just a little thing such as remembering MSPSL routine or the cockpit drill. 100% recommended.”

“Zahid Ali is such a kind, patient and lovely instructor. I had many instructors before him, but I only started learning to drive properly when I had him. He is so calm and truly understands people with disabilities like me. I would highly recommend him to anyone! He’s always reliable and helpful through every step of your driving journey. I passed my test with just 5 minors, and I couldn’t be happier — thank you so much, Zahid, for all your help!”

“My instructor Huw Edmunds was so incredibly helpful and motivating, I couldn't have done it without him. He helped me become more confident and to trust myself when driving, always making the lessons stress free and fun. I passed with only one minor, so I definitely recommend having him as an instructor. Thanks Huw!!!”

“I had an amazing instructor, Ziba, who guided me every step of the way and helped me overcome any mistakes I made and took her time explaining them and how to fix them. She doesn’t just help to pass the driving test but helps you understand how to drive safely.”

“I highly recommend Mohammad Sediqi as a driving instructor! I passed my driving test first time with only one minor fault, and I honestly couldn’t be happier with the result. Mohammad is an excellent instructor — patient, professional, calm and very supportive. Throughout my lessons, he always motivated me, encouraged me and helped me feel more confident behind the wheel. Even when I doubted myself or felt nervous, he believed in me and helped me stay positive. He explains everything clearly, points out exactly what you need to improve, and really prepares you for the test — not only to pass, but to become a confident and safe driver. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a great driving instructor!”

“Imran is an excellent driving instructor and I had a great experience with him, he was able to help me get to test level in a short period of time (and within relatively short notice). He was very patient and thorough with his teaching, making sure I was able to master many manoeuvres and skills needed for safe driving. I was able to pass first try with zero minor faults thanks to his guidance. Would highly recommend.”

“Ziba, my instructor, was absolutely fantastic. She is calm, incredibly patient, positively strict, and genuinely kind-hearted. I chose Ziba as my instructor after reading other people’s reviews, and she was exactly as wonderful as they described. She is an excellent instructor, and I truly cannot thank her enough for her time, patience, and support throughout my lessons and on my test day. I would highly recommend Ziba to anyone looking for a professional, patient, and caring instructor. She is simply amazing!”
