Testimonials

Nikki Baharie

“”I feel so lucky to have found Drive Confident. As someone who suffers with anxiety, the thought of starting with a new driving school 3rd December at the earliest and working towards a practical test date of 17th December with only 12 hours of experience with an instructor under my belt was beyond terrifying, but Dilwar was great from start to finish. I reached out at the beginning of the November lockdown after my first driving school advised they could no longer fulfil my intense driving course. Dilwar was kind enough to keep my details and contact me closer to the end of lockdown to arrange an assessment lesson. Dilwar’s empathetic nature put me at ease straight away, so at the end of my assessment I booked my next 10 hours of lessons without hesitation. Dilwar was kind enough to fit in as many hours as possible with me in a bid to allow me to keep my 17th December test. We completed 12 hours in total and yesterday I passed my test first time with only 4 minors. It’s incredible that we managed to cover so much ground in such a short space of time (pardon the pun) and I’ll be forever grateful to Dilwar for all of the knowledge he imparted on me in order to make me a safe driver for life. Contrary to another review left a month ago, Dilwar is a very kind, patient and knowledgeable instructor and I would thoroughly recommend to anyone considering going with this school. Thank you Dilwar””

“”Fantastic driving company! Dilwar was my instructor and he was simply amazing. He was patient with me and really helped me build my confidence behind the wheel, I looked forward to every lesson we had and always came back from each lesson feeling like I was taking a step in the right direction. Dilwar was so helpful in working around my work schedule and I felt that despite covid and the lockdown period he really did have my best interests at heart by ensuring regular lessons. For anyone that’s a little anxious or apprehensive about learning to drive, Dilwar is your guy! I was a nervous learner and he helped me pass my test 1st time, I’m going to miss our lessons. Thank you for everything Dilwar””

“”One of the best instructors hands down!!! Ripa is so professional, very helpful and always bang on time, she definitely knows her stuff. She helped build my confidence on the road and from not knowing if to steer left or right whilst reversing to passing FIRST TIME, simply amazing, and shows how much of a great teacher she is. Thanks for all the laughs and the lovely conversations we had during lessons, which I will definitely missed. It was an amazing experience Definitely recommend!!!””
