No Gears Driving Academy

Fantastic experience: Mohammed is an excellent driving instructor. He is patient, structured, and committed to helping me succeed. He made each lesson easy to understand and ensured I got the most out of every session. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dedicated and supportive instructor!

Fantastic experience: I truly don't have the words to describe the level of gratitude I have for my driving instructor Zaffar not only did I pass first time with only 3 minor faults but I genuinely feel fully confident in my future driving! He is extremely knowledgeable patient and kind. You speak to each other as if you've known one another for years truly am grateful for all the teaching he has done if I could give more than 5 stars I would 100% recommend and thank you again!

Fantastic experience: From the first day I met Zaffar my instructor to my last lesson, he has been the most patient ever. As a driver from a different country, my way of driving was not too compatible with driving in the UK and I had a lot of bad driving habits to unlearn. Zaffar was patient enough to teach me from scratch. He made me understand the whys and why nots of driving in certain ways and operating a car, which even though I had been driving already, I had no ideas of. I must say his lessons have been invaluable to me. The lessons I have learnt, I believe has made me confident in my ability to drive in the UK and anywhere else. I couldn’t have asked for a better instructor! Thank you Zaffar!

Fantastic experience: Mohammed is a very good instructor. He provides some tips and hints which make challenging stuffs easy to understand. He also provides tailored made lessons to address any specific areas of improvements. He is very flexible and goes above and beyond to fit in lessons. On top of that, he is a nice, pleasant person to deal with.

Fantastic experience: I recently passed my driving test in the UK, and I couldn’t have done it without the exceptional guidance of my instructor, Zaffar. Although I’m an experienced driver in my home country, driving in the UK presents its own unique challenges. Zaffar was incredibly knowledgeable and patient, helping me navigate the differences and master the specific requirements of the UK driving test. His clear instructions, practical tips, and calm demeanor made each lesson valuable and stress-free. I highly recommend Zaffar to anyone looking to gain confidence and pass their test. Thank you, Zaffar, for your excellent teaching!

Fantastic experience: I did a refresher course ( not drove for 4 years so needed some relearning). Zaffar, the instructor was very calm, polite, patient and structured. The course cost 210 GBP for 6 hrs. I must recommend this refresher course as not many driving schools offer refresher course for automatic drivers who had not driven for few years in Birmingham area

Fantastic experience: Pass on my 1st attempt at kingstanding. No gears instructors are professional arrive on time and taught me well. I’m so happy I passed with only 4 minors.

Fantastic experience: I am an experienced driver and I am so pleased I found this driving school to help me with my anxiety and lack of confidence on motorways. I booked a 2.5hr lesson with Mo Zaffar who helped me to challenge and overcome my fears during the lesson by providing expert guidance and coaching with motorway decision-making. He offered moral support, reassurance and built my confidence up so I could reach the high speeds and change lanes comfortably. It is no longer an obstacle for me and I will continue to practise with the guidance Mo has shown me. Thanks Mo- you are a very gifted coach and I'm so grateful for your help. You are so deserving of all of the other positive reviews about you! Would definitely recommend.

Fantastic experience: Zaffar was an extremely friendly instructor, whose refresher lessons really helped me to build confidence to drive again after several years. He is very reliable, reassuring and knowledgeable. Would recommend him to anyone, whether you are just beginning to learn to drive, or need some refresher lessons to help get you back on the road. Thank you so much!

Fantastic experience: Refresher driving course- After a long break from driving and i mean well over 5 years i decided to go back on the road but i also chose a automatic car. I realised i needed some refresher lessons to get used to a automatic, but my main concerns were getting the honest opinion of a good driving instructor. Bearing in mind this was my fourth car and i have passed my test in the 1990's. I searched the internet and 'No Gears Driving Academy' drew my attention. I contacted Zaffar and explained my situation. He immediately arranged the course following a discussion. -He was professional and gave constructive feed back -I have covered all aspect from the very basics in regards to internal and external checks to parking, motorways, islands and Zaffar allowed room for me to tell him what i wanted out of the experience. The most valuable peice of advice i got was when he told me that my driving was safe and i shoud go and drive my car. I needed to hear that from an expert as my confidence needed a boost as i will be driving my young grandchildren around Needless to say i followed his advice and i am now driving on my own and enjoying it just 2 days after my final lesson on the motorway. I would reccommend Zaffar in a breath. He is calm, reassuring and a no nonsence instructor. He tells it like it is but with empathy. Thank you Zaffar.

Fantastic experience: Just passed my test at Dudley test Centre! Couldn’t have done it without Zaffar. He is one of the best driving instructors I have come across. If you’re looking for someone who is patient and informative, I would definitely recommend.

Fantastic experience: Organised and structured teaching adjusted to schedule and needs. Would recommend!

Fantastic experience: I can't contain my excitement after passing my driving test on the first attempt at South Yardley's notoriously challenging test centre, with its mere 34.1% pass rate. This success wouldn't have been possible without my incredible instructor, Zaffar. From the beginning, Zaffar's professionalism and expertise were evident. He effortlessly tailored his teaching to my needs, breaking down complex maneuvers into manageable steps. Zaffar's patience, clear explanations, and constructive feedback boosted my confidence. His unwavering belief in me made all the difference. With a focus on safety and defensive driving, Zaffar ensured I was fully equipped for any situation. I wholeheartedly recommend Zaffar to anyone seeking driving lessons. Thank you, Zaffar, for helping me achieve this amazing milestone!

I would recommend him to anybody who wants to learn to drive, especially nervous and unconfident drivers.

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Mohammed Zaffar, from the first lesson he made me feel comfortable and confident, always polite, professional and on time, Mo is a patient instructor and is very clear with his instructions, his methods and ways of teaching are of a very highly level and easy to understand, mo would always give me honest feedback at the end of every session and always ask my opinion on if there was anything I felt I needed extra help with, no stone was left unturned Going into my test I felt so prepared and confident and ultimately passed first time without question this was down to the way mo trained me

Fantastic experience: Very highly recommended!! When i first started my lessons i was nervous as hell but that ended very quicky Mohammed Zaffer made me feel comfortable. He was polite and not pushy i ended up passing my driving test which i was over the moon about. The methods this guy will teach you are like no other they are so simple and im assure you will get the hang of it in no time! He was always on time, honestly i can not fault his ability to teach he will make sure your best interests are put first! If you struggle on a certain area (i.e roundabouts, junctions etc) he will cover them to make sure you feel confident in doing it on the big day! Also at the end of the lesson he would go over what you have covered, he would ask yourself how you've felt you have done and what area you want to focus on in the next lesson! Just like to say a massive thank you if it wasnt for No Gear Driving Academy i would never have passed will definitely keep in touch not only a great instructor but a good friend!

Fantastic experience: Absolutely amazing, couldn't ask for a better driving instructor. Always on time, delivers the best knowledge and learns you the right way.
