Golders Green Driving School Automatic / Female instructors

Fantastic experience: A huge thank you to Shenka, the most patient, kind, and calm instructor I’ve ever had. I passed my test on the first attempt with zero minors, and I couldn’t have done it without Shenka’s guidance. Their knowledge, support, and genuine care for my safety made all the difference. If you’re looking for an instructor who truly wants you to succeed, I highly recommend Shenka!

Fantastic experience: I had an amazing experience learning to drive with Dafina! Her lessons were intense and very detailed, but that’s exactly what helped me improve so quickly. She has the correct knowledge and always points out your mistakes, ensuring you learn the right techniques from the start. Thanks to her structured approach and clear explanations, I gained confidence and passed my driving test on my first attempt! If you’re looking for a professional and supportive instructor who truly prepares you for the road, I highly recommend Dafina.

Fantastic experience: I want to sincerely thank my incredible instructor, Dafina, for her patience and guidance throughout this journey. Thanks to her support, I passed my driving test! If you’re looking for a professional and caring driving instructor, Dafina is the best choice.

Fantastic experience: Dafina is the best!! I can’t recommend her enough. I failed many many times before meeting her. She fixed everything I was doing wrong and I’ve now passed!

Fantastic experience: I passed first time with only 2 minors due to Shenka’s lessons. She’s very good at her job, patient, kind and never raises her voice she always teaches in a calm manner. She’s up to date with all the road rules and is always 100% focused in our lessons.

Fantastic experience: Dafina is an amazing driving instructor she helped me passed first time!

Fantastic experience: I recently passed my driving test first time having done lessons here. I want to give an honourable mention to my driving instructor Shenka who was amazing and truly helpful throughout. 100% recommend.

Fantastic experience: Dafina is amazing I will gladly recommend her. So takes her time to teach and experience all driving skills to the best of your understanding. Thank you Instructor

Fantastic experience: Dafina was my third instructor and I wish I had started with her. She is a very open, communicative, flexible, and considerate. It's so hard to get everything done in London right now and she made it joyful. Communicate what you need and she will work with you. Passed on first attempt with her.

Fantastic experience: Dafina helped me a lot on my driving, 100% recommended.

Fantastic experience: Dafina is the most amazing driving instructor. We did lots of drilling test routes and familiarising with the roads around the test area which helped a lot for the actual test. Also she gives great tips on tricky sections of roads and roundabouts. Passed on the first go with her help! ❤️

Fantastic experience: I found Dafina and Shenka online- I couldn’t have done it without them. Shenka was patient, kind and generous- Shenka understood my anxieties and helped me to stay calm and always believed in me, even when I made silly mistakes. I couldn’t recommend Shenka more and will always pass on the good word. Thank you so Shenka❤️

Fantastic experience: Dafina is the best instructor ever. After I failed my first test, I reached out to Dafina a week before my second test. Not only she took me in, she worked long hours and even night hours with me because we were time pressured. She cares so much about her pupils and she will work hard with you to make sure you correct mistakes and pass. Examiners love her because they trust her and her pupils. If you are thinking that she is more expansive than other instructors, STOP. Her price is totally reasonable considering how much she explains everything nicely and she will not give up correcting your mistakes. I will give her 10 stars out of 5 if I could. GO FOR DAFINA, you will not regret it.

Fantastic experience: Dafina is the best!!! If you’re an experienced driver from a country where you can’t just convert your license over (e.g., the U.S.), definitely take lessons with her. I’ve driven in 10+ countries for 15 years with no incidents and still think lessons were necessary - it’s worth learning how the test works here and breaking bad habits. Road tests also have very long waiting times so it’s better (and cheaper) not to risk failing the first attempt. I only had time for 2 lessons (US license was expiring) - plan ahead and ideally do a few more than that. Still, Dafina squeezed in a ton of information and was sending over helpful tips when I got an earlier cancellation appt! Happy to have passed :) thank you!!

Fantastic experience: I passed my driving test in the first attempt with Golders Green Driving School with my driving instructor Shenka, she was very helpful and I highly recommend her♥️

Fantastic experience: Dafina is amazing person and an excellent driver instructor. I never thought I will pass my driving test on the first try . I am a very slow learner, I need my time to understand and lots of practice, But she was amazing she had a lot of patience with me and never give up.Because I wasn’t quite ready for the test a week before she just add more lessons for me and work extra hours just being sure I am ready for the test. I am very grateful and I will miss her, we had a great time❤️

Fantastic experience: Dafina is the perfect instructor- super organised and friendly!! Very detailed techniques and methods which got me a first time pass THANK YOU <3

Fantastic experience: I can't thank Dafina enough for her exceptional guidance as my driving instructor. With her guidance and expertise, I passed my driving exam on the first try with just one minor mistake! In just four lessons, Dafina helped me not only to improve my driving skills but also to eliminate some bad habits I had developed. She was patient, knowledgeable, and incredibly supportive throughout the process. Dafina also made sure I was familiar with the test routes in Hendon, which definitely boosted my confidence on exam day. I highly recommend Dafina to anyone looking for a best driving instructor.

Fantastic experience: Honestly wouldn’t have passed without shenka, she kept me calm and collected even when I was nervous. Thank you soo much for all your help. I would 10000% recommend Golders Green driving school.

Fantastic experience: Dafina is very nice as a person and a superb instructor. I learnt a lot from her that helped me pass the driving test with just one minor at my first attempt. She always pushed me harder to bring the best out me and to help achieve the standard required to pass the UK driving test. Mill Hill driving test routes have many challenging terrain, roundabouts and traffic flow. However, all her lessons tips and tricks helped me a lot. If you keep your self confidence always high and pay appropriate attention to all her advice and instructions, this is quite reasonably achievable.

Fantastic experience: She gave great guidance and help on how to drive and how to pass my test.

They rearranged timetable to fit me asap in their schedule and prepare for driving test in 10 days, which I passed from the first attempt!

Fantastic experience: I started lessons with Dafina after a 12 year break and multiple fails. I really felt that I would never pass when I started, but here I am with a passed test and only one minor! Would highly recommend

Fantastic experience: Dafina really makes you fall in love with driving and you acquire a skill for life.

Fantastic experience: Dafina is the most wonderful instructor! I wish I had taken lessons sooner (and she had agreed to :) ). I am a 20+ year experienced driver and I learnt a TON from her! She not only is generous with advice but makes sure you learn and drive in your areas of improvement from day 1. Thank you thank you thank you!

Fantastic experience: The best in the market!! If you're looking for a top-notch driving instructor, look no further. I had the pleasure of learning from her recently, and I can confidently say that she is the best in the business. Not only is Dafina highly skilled and knowledgeable when it comes to driving, but she is also an excellent teacher. Throughout every lesson, she was patient, encouraging, and always willing to go the extra mile to ensure that I understood the material. (Thabk you so much Dafina!!!)

Fantastic experience: Dafina is a fantastic teacher! She is knowledgeable and patient which really helps first time learners! I would highly recommend her to anyone who has never touched a steering wheel or needs refresher lessons! She is the best! P.S. and I was a difficult student yet she made me pass with flying colours!

Fantastic experience: I would highly recommend Dafina, she helped me pass first time after I had failed with other instructors (around 5 times before). She's very calm and understanding with any errors you make and encourages you to improve.

Fantastic experience: Passed first time with 0 minors. Dafina is a wonderful instructor, would 100% recommend her.

Fantastic experience: An extremely friendly and thorough teacher who left no stone unturned when looking to identify and correct my common mistakes and bad habits. On my test day she had just arrived from picking up her mother from the airport and still made time for us to practise and iron out all of my flaws. I highly recommend her to anyone who wants an instructor that is willing to go the extra mile and is flexible, but most importantly actively points out errors and corrects them.

With her help I was able to pass on the first attempt!

Fantastic experience: Dafina is the best driving instructor. She helped my husband get his license in such a short time.

Negative experience: I wouldn't say Dafina was the best instructor I met- She forgot about our lessons several time and almost always 5-10min late. Sometimes during our lesson, she asked me to stop because she wanted a break after some back to back schedule...while still charging me? Sorry I don't think it's ok.

Fantastic experience: dafina helped me so much with my driving lessons , very caring and very determined to make sure her students pass!

Fantastic experience: Although I have been driving for many years in different countries, there’s no way I could pass my driving test in London without Dafina’s help.
