Fantastic experience: Good instructor. He taught me all I needed to know and I passed the first time. Even though, sometimes he can be strict and harsh but overall, he is a very good instructor. I will recommend him 100%.

Fantastic experience: Passed first time! Definitely did not think I would pass first time , but Kaleem is an amazing instructor and guided me into doing this . He really helped build my confidence in driving and was straight to the point which I liked.Took the time to properly explain everything until I understood and was happy to keep practicing in areas I was not as confident in. Helped calm my anxieties by talking about my worries/concerns. Test routes and mock test helped to understand what the actual test is like, which in turn made me feel less anxious during the test. Encourages and pushes you to progress and improve driving. Would highly recommend to all looking for driving lessons. Thank you for your guidance and help.

Fantastic experience: Kalim is a no-nonsense, straightforward teacher. He can sometimes be very blunt and tense but he helped me pass first time. He pushes you forward and builds your confidence. I recommend him.

Elliott Dipper 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Passed first time with Kalim with zero minors, always reliable and flexible in terms of times. Encourages you to progress at an appropriate speed and gets you comfortable with the test and test area. Would recommend.

Leeann 1 year ago

Negative experience: Had loads of lessons with him but often fount his way of communicating very nasty, and speaking down to me ALOT of the time. The first few lessons he was very patient but after that it was constantly shouting and an awkward atmosphere. Which is awful when you’re just learning how to drive. However he did teach me the basic after me not saying I’ll quit which I wanted too. There was many times I wanted to leave there and then but he is reliable but didn’t enjoy my lessons. His way of teaching didn’t suit me and the constant snide comments really do hurt your confidence. And the constant saying “ it’s ok to make mistakes” but when you made one he took them very personal and did shout.

Fantastic experience: Kalim is one of the best driving instructor's in Nottingham, he is straight talking and always gets you to be test ready, he is very knowledgeable and he will always answer any questions you have regarding driving, as the diving school name states he really does teach you to drive with ease and thanks to him I passed first time

Fantastic experience: Khalim was a great instructor and made driving easy. He was patient and understanding. I passed with Khalim after having 3 other instructors. Khalim throughly explained things throughout his lessons particularly manoeuvres. Khalim also has good knowledge of the routes and his mock tests are extremely helpful. Khalim himself has a calm personality and does not waste your time. Khalim is very straight forward and to the point and focuses the lesson on learning with a touch of life advice.

Fantastic experience: Very good Instructor. Highly recommend him.

Amaan Ahmed 2 years ago

Negative experience: Kalim was unprofessional, rude and could not take criticism. He couldn’t keep communication and abandoned me when I needed to have lessons for my test. It seemed as if he was milking me for lessons. Would not recommend!

Emma Bentley 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Excellent Instructor. Has helped me pass first time. Gave me the confidence i needed to not only understand the practical test but also driving in general. Lane discipline, manoeuvres, understanding road signs, being alert and has a great knowledge of test centres and routes which helped considerably. Has a great structure in terms of lessons and plans which flows effortless and soon enough it seems like second nature. I had problems with bay parking, but after enough time practising and finally understanding the manoeuvre i got it. He has patience and will only move onto the next subject when you are confident and understand the previous lessons. Gives enough time and makes sure you are ready to be a confident driver going forward. He has great advice about life in general and the way to be a safe driver not just how to pass your test. He is straight to the point, he doesn't faff about, which was great for me. Direct and straight to the point, tough and precise. I would reccommend him to anyone. Price, flexibility on times, good manual car to practice in and always ensures you are safe. If there is a point you don't quite understand he will take time to explain it and give you time to practice. Thank you for helping me on my journey and to pass my test.

Freya Dorothy 2 years ago

Positive experience: Passed first time with two minors, however didn’t find Kalim to be a constructive teacher - rather berated me for mistakes - causing me to make more. Wasn’t a comfortable experience learning with him and I’d refer the success of my test lies with external guidance and teaching. He was flexible in terms of times.

Fantastic experience: Passed first time using this instructor. Very friendly, patient and put me at ease. He has excellent knowledge of the local test routes and helped me fine tune my skills as a driver to get me ready for my driving test. Excellent service and would highly recommend

Sambasivam V 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Kaleem is extremely good in training. He not only makes u ready for test, but for your overall readiness. I heard about many instructors only do the needful for the test and unlike them, Kaleem helps you to understand about the right things to do to to be a successful driver and also explains ways for maintaining your car in a better way. I had a wonderful session and also cleared the driving test first time. He stresses about planning and gets little impatient when you do mistakes repeatedly, which in fact i wont say bad, but may irritate you a bit, but once you know that it helps you to improve, you know what to do. My overall experience with Kaleem was enjoyable and i would certainly recommend anyone to take lessons with him.

Fantastic experience: I passed my driving test I say big thanks to instructor ease really kind and great instructor I definitely recommend to book here if you pass you driving test .

Eda Mamurekli 3 years ago

Negative experience: Although he may be reliable and pushes you each lesson, hes still very arrogant and rude. Also If I am paying for an hours worth of lesson, I should be getting that exactly, he shouldn’t be including travel time on the way back if he isn’t including it on the way to pick me up. Glad he stopped the lessons bc I would have decided too anyway.

Abdulrahman Alotaibi 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Very good instructor. I had around 7 lessons (2h each). I passed my test earlier this week first time with 2 minors only. Doesn't waste much time and gets you to practise enough during lessons. He explains everything you need for the test very effectively. Takes you around multiple test route and explains common faults students tend to make. I really recommend him.

Adrian Jackson 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Kalim is a great instructor who has a lot of experience who helped me pass after 3 failures. Straight to the point and the weaknesses of my driving but helpful in making me a stronger driver. Fully recommend him if you are looking to start or pass your driving test.

Fantastic experience: Coming off my first failure, I was looking for an instructor to help me iron out weaknesses and ready me to attack the driving test again. All I can say is that whether or not you have the experience, you are paying good money to get taught by Drive Ease. I'm talking professionalism and clarity. I've never had an instructor who could tell me exactly what my issue was and what I needed to do to rectify my mistakes. He is harsh sure, bluntly lays out your mistakes, but why are you receiving lessons? To be sugarcoated or to be trained? Take the lessons on board, take time outside of your lessons to reflect on your mistakes and feel free to discuss them with your instructor. Not only will he explain the solution, but he'll also do you the favour of showing you through experience how to improve. I can sit here all day and sing praise; you won't know how good the lessons you'll be having unless you try them for yourself! All I can say is 10/10 service; he's so good I'll never have to retake lessons!

kumbiss jabbi sillah 4 years ago

Negative experience: Had a really bad experience with the instructor, I feel humiliated, we just had 1 lesson and the next one he where expecting that to be perfect shouting at me with the words:” you are not thinking” he never teach me or direct me the only thing he was saying was “think what you doing” I expected he would say, clutch down now gas etc.. but no I end up crying and did not get even an apologise I asked him to go home and he just jump on the driver seat and drive me home without any considaration. Good thing is he gave me back my money but he took £30 of 1 lesson as I just done 6/8 minutes driving. Would not recomend it at all

Fantastic experience: I have had quite a few driving instructors during my time learning to drive. In my opinion, Kalim was the best. Would never cut lessons short, taught you how to drive properly, Particularly good at teaching roundabouts. Also the car is a great car to learn in. Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: Passed 1st time trying!!! I would highly recommend Driving Ease when learning to drive. My instructor Ishaq Kalim is a brilliant driving instructor who is extremely friendly and makes you feel very comfortable no doubt due to Kalim's relaxed teaching style.
