Surjit was a lovely instructor and great teacher. He prepared me well for the driving assessment and with his guidance I received a pass!

I had a fantastic experience learning to drive with my instructor Surj. He is always be patient, professional, and incredibly supportive throughout my lessons. As a nervous beginner, I really appreciated how clearly everything was explained and how much confidence he helped me build behind the wheel.

Each lesson was well-structured and tailored to my progress, which made a huge difference in improving my driving skills quickly and safely. Thanks to his
guidance, I was able to pass my test first time!

I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and friendly driving instructor.

Thank you again for all your help!

Amazing instructor

Surj was an amazing driving instructor. I’d previously had a bad experience with another instructor which really knocked my confidence, but Surj helped rebuild it. He’s incredibly calm, patient, and supportive, and explains things clearly without ever making me feel stressed. Thanks to him, I passed first time so I couldn’t recommend him enough!

Best driving instructor

I’ve been taking driving lessons on and off for the past few years due to moving frequently so I’ve had lots of different driving instructors. I found Surj when I relocated back to Leeds and without a doubt, he has been the best instructor! He’s always calm and patient. He also gives clear, constructive feedback and good advice that makes a difference. I am an anxious person and I always appreciate how understanding he was whilst also believing in me. Thanks to his excellent guidance and belief in me, I passed the first time!

Pass with Surj!!

I used to be a very nervous and anxious driver but learning with Surj has now caused me to become much more confident and safer. Surj was always quick to recognise my needs and mistakes and was very patient towards me. He explained how to fix my mistakes fully in a way that I’d understand so I wouldn’t repeat them. I think I’ll miss him but I’m very glad i’ve now passed and he’s made me an almost perfect driver! I’m so happy i made the right choice in choosing him.

Driving test passed, all thanks to Surj!

Surj has been an excellent and fantastic instructor. Helped me pass second time with 3 minors after changing instructors. Has given advice to improve my general driving and manoeuvres which has helped massively for my test. Has always remained calm, patient and always boosting my confidence and motivation to do my very best regardless of errors and faults during the lesson. Could not ask for a better instructor, highly recommend him if you’re taking up automatic!!

Passed my driving test first time, thanks to Surj!

I passed my driving test first time today, all thanks to Surj! He’s such a kind, friendly and patient instructor who always made me feel calm and confident. Whenever I felt nervous, he would make me laugh and put me at ease straight away. He gave me so many useful tips and explained everything clearly, which really helped me improve. I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better instructor and would highly recommend Surj to anyone learning to drive!

Passed with 0 driving faults

I want to thank Surj for being an outstanding driving instructor over the past few months. I was able to pass today with 0 faults, which wouldn’t have been possible without his guidance.

His calm, clear teaching style has not only improved my general ability, but massively boosted my confidence too. I would definitely recommend him to anyone, thanks again Surj!

Passed First Time! Outstanding Instructor

Held off on learning for a long time due to being skeptical about driving. Doubts quickly went by our 4th lesson. Surj was a great teacher. He tailored each lesson to my progress, focusing on my weaker areas until I perfected them.

If you are looking for a knowledgeable, strict but patient, and genuinely lovely instructor who will get you through your test first time, look no further.

Extremely grateful for a great instructor!

Surj was exceptional from start to finish. I had tried to learn to drive years ago and had a lot of fear around driving. Surj calmed my nerves from the first lesson and was extremely patient. I went into my test very well prepared and passed with only 2 minors. I never expected to feel confident driving but with his help I now enjoy being behind the wheel.
I am looking forward to a motorway lesson in the future.
I would highly recommend anyone wanting to learn to book in with Surj.

Definitely recommend!

Surj was a really great instructor - he is very calm and helped boost my confidence in the car. He helped accommodate the last minute classes I needed for practice before my test and I passed with 1 minor! Highly recommend him for anyone who wants to pass first time.

Surj was a great instructor and helped me pass, he always calmed my nerves and was a great instructor from start to finish. Absolutely chuffed with my result and can’t wait to do some motorway lessons with him. Would recommend him to anybody wanting lessons in Leeds. I started with 0 knowledge and with his help and patience managed to pass the test.

Surjit Saandal - One of the best!!

I had my instructor Surjit Saandal and could not thank him enough. An amazing instructor, very clam and incredibly intuitive with guiding my lessons to a pass. I would highly recommend him and the company to anyone.
