"I can’t thank Sadia enough for helping me pass my test! I was a very nervous driver to begin with, but Sadia s calm and patient approach completely changed my confidence. She explained everything clearly and never made me feel rushed. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a supportive instructor!" Thank you Sadia 😊

I hadn’t driven in over 2 years

I hadn’t driven in over 2 years, so I was quite nervous getting back behind the wheel. I started lessons with Mohammed Azam in Barnsley, and honestly, it was the best decision I made.
With only 5 sessions (including the day of my test), he helped me rebuild my confidence quickly and focus on exactly what I needed to pass. His teaching style is calm, clear, and very supportive, he explains things in a way that actually sticks.
Thanks to him, I passed first time, I highly recommend Mohammed Azam to anyone looking for a reliable and skilled driving instructor.

Best driving instructor/School

Imran is an excellent driving instructor from MA driving school who made a real difference to my confidence behind the wheel. He quickly identified where I needed to improve and tailored each lesson to suit my needs.

His approach is calm, supportive, and highly knowledgeable. He doesn’t just teach you how to pass a test—he makes sure you understand real-world driving and feel comfortable in a variety of situations.

If you’re looking for an instructor who genuinely cares about your progress and equips you with lifelong driving skills, Imran is a fantastic choice.

I passed first time

I passed first time; as Alisson as my driving instructor, it made passing more achievable than I could’ve ever thought.
This woman is more than a driving instructor, yes she was patient, understanding, kind, and honest, which every driving instructor is supposed to be right?
But she was genuine. It never felt like every time I was about to hop into the car that I was awaiting my doom or some form of judgment. She made me feel comfortable, safe, seen and heard. I wouldn’t even say friend, because it honestly feels like an insult, she genuinely was a mentor, because she somehow had this unseen belief in you that you didn’t even think you could have and next thing you know, you end up passing your driving test first time!
Thanks Alisson.

Alison is BRILLIANT, 10/10

Alison has been my driving instructor since October and I just passed with 4 minors!

I can’t thank Alison enough for how much she has supported me. She has an infectious ‘can-do’ attitude which has made me a confident driver and genuinely wants you to not only pass, but be a good driver when you get on the roads independently. Really enjoyed my lessons with her and could not recommend enough!

Week before my test!

Had a week before my test and my Instructor couldn’t fit me in, they passed me over to Ghaf at MA driving school.

He managed to pick up any faults I had straight away and give me the correct advice to pass. He was straight forward and very professional thanks to him I passed!

The driving instructor

Did my driving lessons with Naz and she was great, helped me build my confidence in roundabouts and I passed my test!!!
In lessons Naz is so fun and chatty, which made lessons something I actually looked forward to rather than stressing about. She created such a comfortable and positive environment, I always felt supported.
I would highly recommend her to anyone who wants to feel confident and be prepared for their driving test.

I had stopped driving for a while and reached out to MA driving school when getting back into it. I thank my instructor Youns as I explained I wanted to pass within a short time. With Youns teaching style and his ability to simplify everything while driving I was able to do that and passed within a few months in Doncaster.
He was able to perfect my driving skills to make me test ready within a short time and was consistent in his teaching. I thank MA driving school and my instructor Youns for being a great teacher and an overall great person.

I have really enjoyed my lessons with Azam, he was instructive and clear in each lesson.
He has helped me build my confidence in my driving and given me the time and space to improve my skills. I am happy to say I passed first time!

Passed with Sadia

Passed my driving test at Shirley with Sadia today, with 0 minors!!! This just goes to show how great of an instructor she is. Sadia was very patient with me from day 1, despite my (many) silly mistakes, and always made sure to go through feedback with me at the end of each lesson. She was very organised, for example she sent me reminders before every lesson and always arrived exactly on time. We practiced everything thoroughly which meant that I went into my test feeling comfortable and confident as I knew what to expect. Thank you so much Sadia you were amazing💗

I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better driving instructor than Sadia. From the very beginning she was so patient, calm, and understanding, even when I doubted myself. She always believed in me and gave me the confidence I needed to keep going, especially on the days I felt like giving up.

She explains everything so clearly and never makes you feel rushed or judged, which made such a difference for me. Every lesson felt supportive and encouraging, and I always left feeling like I had improved.

Today I passed my test and I genuinely don’t think I could have done it without her. I’m so grateful for all her help and support throughout this journey. I would 100% recommend Sadia to anyone learning to drive 🤍
She goes above and beyond for all her leaners, I was truly lucky to have found her. Thank you so much Sadia.
