Fantastic experience: My driving instructor was Mohammed Shamshu and I passed first time, and so did my brother when he was learning with him, which is a testament to his ability. His approach to teaching was very much about making you the best and safest driver you can be. He was also very flexible with my working schedule which was great for me, especially coming closer to my test date he made himself available to give me the extra training and support I needed.

Fantastic experience: Learning to drive with Mohammed Shamshu was an absolute pleasure. From the moment I started taking lessons with him, it was clear that he dearly cared about my comfort and progress. Mohammed’s approach to teaching was incredibly personalised. He was understanding of my specific requirements and ensured each lesson was tailored to me accordingly. Whether that was additional practice with roundabouts and parking, and this was while being patient and supportive. Along with this Mohammed was very flexible and went out of his way to ensure that he could accommodate my schedule. Most importantly, he made the intimidating journey of learning to drive stress-free. Mohammed’s calm demeanour, amazing personality and clear instruction allowed me to relax despite how difficult the situation was. Due to his guidance, I was not only able to progress rapidly but also pass both my theory and practical.

Fantastic experience: I have used a few instructors before and i feel that Moydul really helped me actually progress alot.

Fantastic experience: Passed my driving test first time with only 1 fault. Mr Moydul Hoque was very helpful in teaching me every possible scenario that could come up in the test and I highly recommend him for others .

Fantastic experience: Mohammed Shamshu Miah is a gem in the driving instructor community! The amount of effort, patience, love and care I have seen him put into my lessons and all of his clients lessons are evident in their positive outcome. Mohammed has a wonderful gift of adapting lessons to suit his students. So much so that I always looked forward to lessons just so I could have a chat over anything (mainly football). That had really boosted my confidence and led me to today passing my test with very few minors. It’s a shame that I won’t be able to do anymore lessons with him now but I highly recommend Mohammed to all of you, you will not regret it. Driving is a huge milestone in anyone’s life and driving with Mohammed, well that just the whole journey special!

Fantastic experience: Mohammed doesn’t waste time explaining unnecessarily and makes sure you are actually driving and getting your experience hence why I passed first time. Highly recommend if you want to aswell.

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Mohammed Miah (my driving instructor) for your lessons. He is very professional, knowledgeable, a great chat, and has developed a recipe for success. I passed first time with only 2 minors.

Fantastic experience: MOHAMMED MIAH!!! honestly the best instructor ever, I could never be thankful enough, he was absolutely amazing at teaching, made me feel confident and never had any doubt in me. May Allah bless him. Thank you for all the effort once again!!!

Fantastic experience: I passed my licence entirely thanks to Mohammed. He gave me great confidence and was very patient, even during the actual test day when I was freaking out. He has amazing people skills and was very understanding if something unexpected came up. I can very warm heartedly recommend him as I will also miss our life chats and lessons!

Fantastic experience: Jay has been extremely helpful throughout the process. His structured approach made a significant difference in my learning experience. I would highly recommend Jay to anyone looking not just to pass their test on the first attempt but also become a confident driver.

Fantastic experience: Passed today first time with 3 minors, thanks to Mohammad Miah. Top tier instructor that gave me full confidence in my driving. He’s very friendly and highly patient which made me feel good on the roads. Every lesson I felt like I was making a lot of progress to the point where I could drive anywhere with ease. I couldn’t have passed without him. 10/10 would recommend to anyone.

Fantastic experience: Mohammed is the best driving instructor I’ve ever had. He is very patient, has great people skills, makes the experience enjoyable and is very understanding. He gets to know his students to understand how they learn best. He would give me feedback on things to improve but would also give me positive reassurance. He goes above and beyond for his students and I wouldn’t have passed with only 3 minors, if it weren’t for his amazing teaching skills. I highly recommend Mohammed as an instructor. I will be going to him when my son turns 17 for driving lessons. Thank you so much!

Fantastic experience: My driving instructor was Moydul H. I have had the best experience and passed first time and it goes to show how amazing he is as a teacher. I knew absolutely nothing about cars or driving but after a few months of lessons I was a professional lol. When it came to the day of my test I was extremely confident and knew I’d be getting my certificate that day. I shall be contacting him for motorway lessons too! I highly recommend him as a driving instructor 10/10.

Fantastic experience: Mohamed Miah was literally amazing, I passed on my first time. He was so patient with me and so encouraging when I didn’t think I could do it. He’s so patient and I’ve recommended him to all my friends who are looking for good driving teachers

Fantastic experience: I could not recommend Mohammed Miah more highly as a driving instructor. His patience and teaching method were instrumental in me passing my driving test with a clean sheet (no major or minor offences), something I couldn't have achieved without his guidance. He not only helped me understand the rules of the road but also significantly boosted my confidence behind the wheel. With every lesson, it felt like he was personally invested in my progress, always ready to support me, and quick to highlight improvements. I am incredibly grateful to have had him as my instructor and believe his exemplary teaching skills can benefit anyone learning to drive.

Fantastic experience: Very high quality teaching from my instructor, mohammed, who was my instructor that taught me very efficiently how to be competent behind a wheel. would recommend .

Fantastic experience: Had lessons with Mohammed great teacher taught me a lot of things and was very patient and calming he never made me feel nervous driving

Fantastic experience: I passed my test a couple months ago on my first try with my instructor Mohammed. I’m just 8 weeks he was able to teach me everything I needed to pass easily. In the short time frame we had he was able to break down everything and refine all the skills I needed to be able to control the car as well as help develop knowledge of the road. Just recently we had a refresher and he got me up to speed with everything as if it was our first lesson.

Would definitely recommend to everyone!

Highly recommend as he’s very professional and considerate of all driving levels.

Fantastic experience: I previously changed instructors as I thought my driving skills was not getting better and had to cancel my test as I was not test ready. Moving on to Jay was the best thing as, I could see soo much improvement in my driving and could see my driving was getting better around my test centre. Jay was patient and helped me alot in areas I was finding difficult in. Today I PASSED first time

Fantastic experience: Jay is fantastic! I passed my test the first time!! As a driver from the US, who hadn’t spent any time driving in the past 12 years (let alone on the “other” side of the road), I couldn’t have gone with a better instructor. He was patient and clear with instruction, and also pushed me beyond my comfort zone when he felt I was ready. He thoroughly prepared me for day-to-day driving in busy central London, and also for the test. Thank you so much, Jay!

Fantastic experience: An amazing learning experience with Jahangir. He is very patient, passionate, supportive and very well equipped with the right knowledge/ technique for the exam.

Fantastic experience: I am so glad that I've come across Jay and chose him as my instructor! Not only did I pass on my 1st attempt, but I genuinely feel like a better and well equipped driver. I've driven in another country before moving to the UK, and Jay was able to identify my strengths and weaknesses and work on these towards my test day. He explained things in a very clear way and the entire experience has been positive. I also never got cancelled on and he's always been punctual. A true gentleman to work with and I highly recommend him. Thank you Jay!

Fantastic experience: I located Jay as I wanted to pass my driving test within a realistic time frame. When we first met for my driving lesson I was absolutely amazed at the way Jay explained the fine details. Jay would actually show me via his laptop a diagram of the correct way to complete the driving monitors. I had my driving test today, before the test Jay went through some important points that will benefit me. I passed with 3 minor points and am so happy that I can look forward now.

Fantastic experience: I passed the test with my first attempt after 12 lessons with Jay. I learnt driving with another instructor from Blueway driving school before but he was angry and yelling all the time and denied the mistakes he made. Then I found Smart Drive from Google map. Jay, who is opposite from my last instructor, is patient and explains everything clearly. He has a deeper thought of how to drive and coach it. He wants you not only passinig the test but also becoming an expert. I am very glad to recommoned Jay to my friends and anyone who reads this comment.
