DRIVE BUDDI Reviews 560

I passed my driving test and honestly, I still can’t quite believe it. Harshaali was amazing,

For the longest time, I genuinely thought driving just wasn’t for me. I struggled a lot at the start and felt like a lost cause more times than I can count. But everything changed with the right instructor. They didn’t just teach me how to drive, they really understood where I was going wrong, broke things down clearly, and helped me improve step by step.

Roundabouts were my biggest challenge, but we worked on them again and again until it finally clicked. That patience and consistency made all the difference.

I’m so grateful for the support I had couldn’t have asked for a better instructor. This feels like such a big personal win.

Passed my test with only 2 minors, despite my nerves, thanks to John. He was fantastic from start to finish and couldn't have done it without him. Having bad experiences in the past with instructors I was a bit dubious at the start but John was fantastic. Would definitely recommend!

I passed my driving test today and I honestly couldn’t have done it without my amazing instructor, Ewelina. After 30 hours of lessons, I can genuinely say I loved every single one. She made me feel so comfortable and relaxed from the very beginning, which really helped build my confidence on the road.

We got along so well, and her sense of humour made every lesson enjoyable—I actually looked forward to them every time. She explained everything clearly, was always patient, and supported me through any nerves or mistakes.

Thank you so much, Ewelina, for everything. I’m so grateful for all your help and guidance. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to learn to drive

Passed my manual driving test today, and I cannot thank my instructor Dawood for getting me through this journey. He is an excellent teacher and I couldn’t have got a better instructor!

Mohamad -I recently passed my test, and I couldn’t have done it without my instructor’s support. They were incredibly patient throughout the entire process, always taking the time to explain things clearly and never making me feel rushed or pressured.

What stood out the most was their understanding nature—they recognized when I was struggling and adapted their teaching style to help me improve. Their calm and encouraging attitude really helped build my confidence behind the wheel.

Thanks to their guidance, I felt fully prepared going into my test and was able to pass successfully. I’m very grateful for their dedication and would highly recommend them to anyone learning.

Recently passed my test with 0 minors! And I couldn’t have done it without my instructor Mo! What a man he is, he was recommended to me by a friend after a bad experience with a previous instructor, mo made me feel at ease within minutes, he’s so patient and genuine! Thanks to mo and drive buddy you’ve gave me something i thought i could never do! Would 1000% recommend him to anyone! Thanks again! 🙂

I had a really good experience training with Drive Buddi, especially thanks to my instructor John. He was always on time — often even 10–20 minutes early — which already showed how professional and reliable he is. After every lesson he gave me clear feedback, explained what I did well, and what I should improve next time. That really helped me progress faster and feel more confident on the road.

Overall, I’m very happy with the training I received. John is patient, supportive, and genuinely wants his students to succeed. Thank you for the great service — I definitely recommend Drive Buddi to anyone looking for quality driving lessons.

Dawood is a very easy going instructor & a very genuine guy!

The best driving school in Leicester
Thank you very much

solid geezer passed me first time good prices 10/10 would recommend

I passed today. I’ve been learning since June last year with drive buddi / Sadaf. Sadaf is an amazing driving instructor; she is so supportive and helpful. I have really struggled with managing my nerve but she gave a lot of helpful tips and been amazing.

Great driving instructor helped me pass first try highly recommend lovely guy aswell

I passed my test today with just 1 minor, and I honestly wouldn’t have managed it without my instructor, Mo.

I’m an anxious, late-in-life learner and I genuinely thought I’d never be able to drive. From day one, Mo has been calm, patient and straight-talking in exactly the way I needed. He explains why things matter, not just what to do, and never makes you feel stupid for forgetting something or needing it shown again.

If you’re a nervous learner or haven’t driven in years and you’re scared to start, I honestly couldn’t recommend Mo enough. He’s kind, honest, and makes you feel like you can actually do this. I’m now a fully licensed driver and passed first time.

Sadaf is such a good instructor and helped me pass my driving test first time, she calmed my nerves before the test and was so patient and supportive of me. Sadaf explained everything clear me and helped me with all of my show me and tell me questions, she made me more confident in driving and i highly recommend her.

I recently passed my driving test with only two minors, and I genuinely could not have done it without Sadaf’s guidance and support.

Before starting lessons with Sadaf, I had trained with several other instructors. While I had some driving experience, I still struggled with certain faults and lacked full confidence on the road. From my very first lesson with Sadaf, the difference was clear. She quickly identified my weak areas, corrected long-standing mistakes, and explained things in a way that finally made everything click. My driving improved drastically in a short space of time.

Sadaf is not only an incredibly skilled instructor but also a kind and patient person. She creates a calm learning environment, which makes it much easier to build confidence and stay focused. She is very dedicated to her learners and genuinely wants you to pass. She doesn’t just prepare you for the test — she ensures you become a safe, confident and competent driver for life.

No matter where you are in your driving journey, I would highly recommend Sadaf. Her encouragement, professionalism and attention to detail truly set her apart. A well-deserved 5 stars!

Great easygoing teacher in Mr Imran Khalil, very patient, arrives on time, doesn’t waste time
