Big L Driving School Birmingham | Driving lessons: Reviews
Fantastic experience: I cannot praise this driving instructor enough for teaching me well enough to pass my driving test on my first try. As someone who is naturally quite nervous, I’ve had a few instructors in the past, but none have been quite as outstanding as him. I highly doubt I’d have been confident enough to pass without his encouragement and knowledge. He is incredibly professional, patient, and understanding, always taking the time to explain things thoroughly and give me the confidence I needed (I had truly thought it was near impossible to pass your driving test on the first go). I have noticed a vast improvement in my driving skills and confidence throughout my journey with him. I believe his teaching creates life long good drivers, rather than just being taught how to pass a test. I thank him so so much for his time & patience with me. I will carry the knowledge I’ve learned for life. I couldn’t recommend him enough! I’d highly suggest booking him to see a noticeable improvement in your driving :)
Fantastic experience: Started my lessons with Sheraz in August 2024 after a previous instructor was unavailable for a month. I had multiple instructors previously with different cars and ways of teaching but I can honestly say, I can't see how I would have passed my test without Sherazs help. The first few lessons we covered the basic road rules and he made sure that I was using the clutch correctly in quieter areas before we went out on a main road (which is the opposite to how I'd been taught previously). The attention to detail and tailored learning was key for me making progress lesson by lesson and being in a position to take my test. I felt very anxious when it came to driving around busier areas but Sheraz noticed common issues during lessons and helped me to balance focused driving with a calm demeanor. Did not have a single issue when it came to booking lessons, was very flexible with days/times including dropping me off to work and messaging the day before a lesson to confirm timings. I would 100% recommend Big L for any learner who wants a complete education to become test ready. Everything from the car to the emotional support and quality & planning of lessons was immaculate. Go with Big L for your driving lessons.
Fantastic experience: From day one, he was patient, knowledgeable, and incredibly supportive. Every lesson was structured to build my confidence and skills, making sure I was fully prepared for the test—and I passed first time. I always felt comfortable asking questions, and their calm, encouraging teaching style made learning to drive an enjoyable experience. Enough though i am a very slow learner he was very patient with me and encouraged when I needed it. If you’re looking for a top-notch instructor who genuinely cares about your success, I highly recommend big L driving school Thank you so much
Fantastic experience: The best driving instructor I could’ve ever had (Sheeraz), his clear and informative instructions during our lessons were perfect and allowed me to pass first time and with zero minors. He also does amazing with praise and makes you feel like every lesson is a step closer to getting that pass that I needed and it did. Thank you Sheeraz for all your help I really appreciate it!
Fantastic experience: I had a great experience learning with BIG L driving school They were patient, and knowledgeable, and helped me build the confidence I needed to pass my test on the first try!”“Thank you for being such an amazing driving instructor. Your patience, clear instructions, and encouragement gave me the confidence to pass my test. I truly appreciate all your hard work!”
Fantastic experience: First time pass. Was my second driving Instructor (Sheeraz) was amazing, patient, flexible and managed to get me through in 2 months. Would recommend this driving school to anyone taking their lessons!
Fantastic experience: Just passed my test first time today, couldn’t have done with my man like Sheeraz absolute legend, he got me through everything! His methods of teaching are perfect and I have nothing bad to say. Overall I couldn’t have had a better instructor, I would 110% recommend to others!!!
Fantastic experience: I passed my driving test today and I couldn’t be happier! All thanks to my really helpful, patient, supportive driving instructor Shiraz! I can’t thank him enough, I definitely recommend him to help people get onto the roads! If I can do it then so can anyone! :’) Thank you so much again for your patience and support! I will also miss our hilarious conversations, he helped calm the nerves!
Fantastic experience: My driving instructor was great and I had a very good time with the lessons they were easy to understand. Ended up passing with only two minors.I definitely recommend this driving school.
Fantastic experience: Sheeraz is an amazing instructor and within the short amount of time I had i passed with one fault. He is very patient and amazing at what he does.
Positive experience: I am someone who passed their many years ago and didn't bother driving. I had bought a car and wanted to start driving again. After being messed around by other instructors I found Shiraz. Shiraz was patient, calm and really polite in every lesson, which really helps me when I'm driving to not get stressed out. And he is also good at small talk in quiter moments on the road to really help put you at ease. He was always on time and would always text me the day before to confirm a lesson, which he doesnt have to do. His methodical lesson approach is effective and ensures that you really understand each aspect of the road (i.e right turns, on traffic light junctions, mini roundabouts, spiral roundabouts, motorways etc) and we didn't move on until I could demonstrate that I can deal with each scenarios), and whenever you make serious error or have a persistent habit, he will ask you to pull up on a side road (might get the white board out). And you will have a two way discussion, where you ca also explain why you are making the error and what's going through your head, which helps him even further to correct you. Shiraz is alao very adaptable because my teaching was slightly changed I think because I had already passed, so I didn't do "test specific" things like maneuvers for example. I appreciated this because we could focus more on general driving and it was a better useage of time and money. Shiraz has given me tools and teaching to make me a confident driver who no longer gets anxiety driving to places and dealing with other road users. Whether you are someone like myself or a learner I would definitely reccomend Shiraz Reuben

Fantastic experience: Out of the 3 driving instructors I have had, Shareez is by far the best. He is an excellent teacher who tailors each lesson towards the needs of his student.

You will not find a driving instructor of a greater quality or integrity than Shareez Book a lesson today. You will not regret it Many thanks Shareez Thank you for all your hard work and your teachings

Fantastic experience: My daughter started her driving lessons with big l driving school. She was a very anxious and nervous when she started. However the driving instructor put her at a lot of ease and her progress was amazing. Sheeraz was very good with his teaching methods and got her through her lessons and her driving test very efficiently. Thank you
Your daughter was a pleasure to teach. She never gave up in her lessons, took advice well and now she is independent.
Thank you for allowing me to help her.
Fantastic experience: I've had sheeraz as a driving instructor , and after having a few instructors , I could not recommend him more. He has a great approach to teaching how to drive , has endless patience , and a great personality. Thanks to his help , after a few lessons with him , I passed first time
Thanks Dan. It was a pleasure helping you achieve your goal.
Fantastic experience: I would like to share my experience with everyone about the Big L driving school. The tutor was extremely engaging and interactive. I find learning to drive quite challenging and I was made to feel at ease from the beginning. Instructions were clear and concise and I felt that the time was taken to articulate the various different concepts of reverse parking which helped me build my confidence. Thank you to Big L for taking the time to understand my needs and helping me pass my test. Really appreciate it x
Thank you ruby. Has been a pleasure to teach you. All the best
Negative experience: The instructor sheraz takes you really slowly, spending a ton of lessons taking a right turn for example even though he says " i got it down properly on my first lesson". Apart from this, he used to take 2 to 3 week breaks at a time so a weekly lesson wasnt an option, yet if u cancelled on him he would still charge you. My new instructor has got me test ready in the same amount of lessons sheraz spent taking me around the block every lesson. I would not recommend, look for a genuine instructor, not this guy.
As a young man who had never driven before, and someone who had never changed gears, i had to take time to bring you up to scratch with all the basics.
My job involves risk assessment, to make sure i can push you as far as possible but in a controlled manor, within the few lessons we had together, you understood, how the clutch works, how to change gears, planning, emerging and approaching, roundabouts and you were dealing with the main roads, which was not taking you around the block.
As for taking time off, i explained to yourself that there was a family emergency at the time, and it was a one off. As i have taught your brother and i am sure he will tell you that i never took time off, and the fact that he passed first time with me.
I am glad to hear your new instructor has got you test standard ready. I wish you all the best, and do feel you very harsh on the 1 star, these things effect people lives and families. Thank you for taking the time out to review here. All the best.
Fantastic experience: Great driving instructor brilliant guy brilliant lessons get my test done and dusted recommends brilliant bloke
