Cambridge instructor, Shaathvegan
Thanks to Shaathvegan's excellent teaching, I passed my test on the first attempt, and more importantly, I now feel like a safe and confident driver. If you are looking for a reliable and friendly instructor in the Cambridge area, I could not recommend him enough. With his well organised lessons, concise and constructive feedback and knowledge of the test routes, you will be well prepared in no time. Thank you for all the help and support!

Recommend my instructor Mariam Fazel
I heard from so many people saying that the driving licence in the UK is the hardest one in the world. Today I did it at the first attempt!! I couldn't achieve this without my instructor-Mrs Mariam Fazel. Her professional knowledge, patience, guidance, and encouragement throughout my driving lessons made me become a safe driver. Her clear explanations and calm teaching style helped me build my confidence. She concerns what is the learner's need or wanted to achieve, she is there to help and support. Thanks to her excellent instruction and support, I was able to pass my driving test. I would highly recommend her if anyone who is looking for a professional and supportive driving instructor. Thank you very much, Mariam! You are a star!

I learned to drive with Jeff (Sale
I learned to drive with Jeff (Sale, Manchester) and I am so grateful for the experience! Jeff is the most professional, knowledgeable, friendly and easy going instructor which created a safe learning environment from the first lesson. Jeff has given me so much more than just a driving license to take away from these sessions and we had some great laughs along the way. I highly recommend if you are looking for an instructor who genuinely cares about his students and who's main fulfilment is to help you grow through your driving journey.

Driving with Glen
I recently passed my driving test. My instructor was Glen. Glen is an excellent driving instructor, with remarkable patience. He has extremely deep knowledge of the local area and driving in general and clearly communicates this throughout the lessons. He is also a very funny and friendly person to drive with which can put you at ease.

Matthew Day (Sidcup) Great instructor
Matthew Day (Sidcup) Great instructor
Matt is the best teacher I have ever had in my life, he is extremely knowledgeable, calm and composed and has a great level of patience. I passed first time and after having other instructors who spend so much time going through things before you actually start driving, Matt gets you straight to the wheel. He gives you so much confidence and above all else has been a great support to me. I cannot recommend him enough.

Alaa Kosheta helped me become a confident driver again. I had never been a confident driver. I originally had a European driving licence and had always driven a manual car on the right-hand side of the road. Driving in the UK on the left, and in an automatic car, felt really scary at first.
However, thanks to Alaa, I am more confident than ever and now drive an automatic car for work here in the UK. I can't wait for my motorway lessons!

Serigne as a driving instructor GOATED
Serigne you absolute weapon; could NOT have passed my test without this guy! So patient, so calm and just an absolutely sound guy to learn to drive with, genuinely so thankful to have been yapping in a car with him for the past six months. Mistakes made during driving lessons debriefed so clearly and always in the same structure to avoid confusing me, gonna miss iPad time every week! 100% recommend him to absolutely anyone who wants to learn to drive!!

Illegal bullies should not be instructors.
One of RED driving instructors car beeped me on narrow road when I was cycling. It had no space to over taking me. There wasn't learner diver driving. It was just driving instructor driving. Illegal bullies should not be instructors.

Driving Instructor Micheal Letts - I couldn't ask for anyone better.
I took my test at 11:11am on 03/07/2026 at the Sheffield, Handsworth test site. I achieved a Pass with 0 minors...
That is all thanks to my driving instructor, Micheal Letts, who I found through RED. His calm and professional attitude worked wonders as when I first started I was really quite nervous, his approach to teaching brought my confidence up very quickly and my nerves were gone before I knew it. He handles your mistakes calmly, and carefully explains exactly what went wrong and ways to fix the issues at their root, helping you along the way. His recommendations on test times and if you are ready are accurate and should be taken into consideration. I think my result speaks for itself.
Outside of the formal business side of things, he's a great fella and a delight to chat with during lessons. I would strongly recommend him to anyone and everyone wanting to learn to drive.

Very happy with my experience with Luke gurling
Very happy with my experience with the company, more specifically my instructor Luke Gurling who was able to teach me a new car in very short notice and still help me to pass, would recommend as a driving instructor, makes you feel very comfortable behind the wheel.

My driving instructor Atia Farooqi was hands down the best you can find. Her style of teaching was extremely effective, she made confusing rules or complex roundabouts seem so easy to understand and I never forgot. She was very patient throughout my entire lessons, always giving me tips to improve and making sure I did not fall into bag habits, her experience in teaching shined. One of the most important point was the fact how easy she was to talk to, never a awkward moment and each lesson made me excited for the next. In just 6 months she took me a beginner driver to passing my test, I can't recommend her enough.

Jamil Latif was most patient!!!
Jamil Latif was the most patient and resilient instructor I've come across. Reminding me with a tone that encourages me to remember the skills on the road whilst not making me feel unable in any way. Was a pleasure to have been taught by him. Extremely professional and always really early for lessons. I hope we meet again someday.

My driving instructor #Nicky Holmes (Basingstoke)
She was so nice and easy to get along with she made every lesson enjoyable whilst also feeling like you left the lesson with more progression everytime. The way she broke down everything which i was confused or was struggling with worked so well she really understands her students and their needs for success.
And let’s just say i passed with 1 Minor so the proof is in the pudding.
couldn't recommend anyone better if you are in the basingstoke area.

Riad was very supportive and lovely even with so little time he always made time to fit in extra lessons and is always being very attentive to small details. I was happy to pass first time and feeling more confident on the road now!

My instructor was Shah Hussain
My instructor was Shah Hussain, London based (Hackney). I learned automatic driving with him over the course of 25 hours. He had a very calm, confident teaching approach, and has been teaching driving in London for something like 30 years, and it shows! I passed the practical on the first go :) and I know Shah's other student took their test the day before me, and they also passed first time :) Would recommend for sure.
