My ADL Automatic Driving School Reviews 

Today i (Jayashree Mohapatra)passed my driving test in my first attempt in Colchester.To be honest without Rashed this would not have been possible .Rashed is the best Instructor i have came across after trying few earlier.He is very punctual , dedicated , precisely understands the needs of the students and works accordingly to eradicate the faults.Very patient even if you make mistakes during your driving lessons .He clearly remembers the mistakes we make and in subsequent lessons encourages students to rectify the earlier mistakes.I am really short of words to praise him .He is a gem of a person and thankfully i got introduced through a friend who also passed in first attempt.I would recommend him 150% to all who wants to really learn driving and pass the test with flying colors.I honestly want everyone gets him as instructor but only the lucky ones will get him as he is ultra busy.Thanks again for everything Rashed from the bottom of my heart.

I had been learning to drive on and off for 5 years, with failed driving instructors who i felt weren’t helping me progress with my driving knowledge.
I am a nervous person by nature and working full time so it was very important to find an instructor who very adaptive to their students and taught them as an individual to their specific needs.
As soon as I stepped into the car with Rashed I felt completely at ease, he is very patient, very informative and dedicated driving instructor.
I passed with 4 minors first time, which is 100% because of Rashed’s dedication to teaching me to learn.
I would recommend him to absolutely anyone who was learning to drive.
My family can’t believe that he has finally got me to drive and call him a miracle worker :).
He is the best and I really can’t thank him enough.
Thank you so much Rashed.

Rashed at ADL is a superb driving instructor. Both my daughters passed first time with him after surprisingly few lessons- they were confident and competent drivers thanks to his calm and patient instruction. He made sure that they knew all the test routes and the show-me tell-me questions really well, and they enjoyed driving lessons rather than being nervous. I have already got my third child booked in! We’d recommend Rashed and ADL wholeheartedly.

Rashed’s driving instruction is superb. He helped me pass first time. He gives helpful and honest feedback with a friendly teaching manner. He provides really useful advice on the most efficient way to pass the practical examination. He aims for you not just to pass your test, but be a competent driver.

What can I say! Rashed is THE best driving instructor I have ever had. I am honestly going to miss our lessons together. I passed my driving test first time with only 10 lessons and 2 minor faults. The professionalism is out of this world and Rashed is so easy to get along with. I would 1000% recommended going with this driving school.

Well where to begin! After a terrible experience with a former driving instructor, which put me off for 4 years I cannot thank Rashed enough for being the most genuinely patient, kind and fantastic instructor that COLCHESTER has to offer! It was a truly an amazing educational experience and I hope someone reads this and decides to invest their money into getting what this school has to offer. I only started learning in July and managed to past first time with 0 faults in the first week of October. This was, in my opinion because of the responsibility this school takes on to make good, safe and practical drivers! I can’t thank you enough!

Rashed was a fantastic instructor , pushed me hard to get my test forward and believed in me to pass and had delivered with passing 1st as the 8th learner without a fail. I highly recommend him if you’re learning to drive in an automatic!!

During the pandemic was almost impossible to find someone to teach me to drive and finally pass the exam. I called several instructors and no one was able to help me out, except Rashed who was very kind from the beginning. He made my journey possible in a short time, ending with me passing the exam having no problems(first attempt). He was able to find and secure a good time slot despite the fact that almost every slot was already taken. He is devoted, kind, friendly and knows how to teach you properly during the lessons while having a good laugh. He even surprised me with a gift after passing my exam, which was totally unexpected and made my day! Finally, he literally helped me a lot while keeping my expectations up. If you need someone who is professional, who is not afraid of a challenge, while also having a good, relaxing time, Rashed is your man!

Originally planned to do my practical test in Carlisle but unable to find any instructor. Found Rashed giving automatic lessons in Colchester and he managed to give intensive courses plus moving the practical test to be done in Colchester. He is very patient and making driving lessons fun to learn. Managed to PASSED for the first time. Couldn't recommend more than any other instructors!! Thank you!!

My experience with Rashed was brilliant! Great instructor, he has been very patient the whole journey! Really felt like one of my good friends, Thankyou so much! 100% recommend!

I contacted a few schools to enquire about a plan that suited my busy lifestyle. ADL and Rashed rose to the challenge, presented me with a tailored program, and even helped me secure a suitable test date. Rashed is an outstanding instructor that instils confidence in others and is a wonderful human being. Moreover, Rashed’s background working in the city empowers him to analyse individual needs and deliver a more nuanced solution. Every lesson with Rashed was clearly structured with excellent communication and wonderful advice that exceeded expectations. The level of support offered by Rashed is simply outstanding. Thank you Rashed, for the stellar effort in helping me pass on the first attempt. I highly recommend taking lessons with ADL regardless of your driving level; this school will undoubtedly help you achieve your goals.

Rashed was a fantastic instructor. He was very calm and made me feel relaxed whilst learning to drive. I passed 1st time. I would highly recommend. Thanks Rashed.

Rashed was really helpful throughout my lessons with him. He gave me the push at the right time and that made me to be so determined to pass my test. He was really supportive in getting the test date for me. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

I’ve taken a few lessons as a refresher course, as I had my license for a few years but rarely drove, and never drove in the UK. Rashed found a spot for me really quickly, and the lessons were really useful! We covered what I needed to get back on the road, and I was confident to drive again in no time! Although I had always been a nervous driver, Rashed really helped me get past this by giving clear instructions and useful advice! I would definitely recommend lessons with Rashed, whether you’re looking to pass your test or refresh your driving! ☺️

Rashed is the best instructor you can get. Gives his best to make you learn and makes sure you pass. Highly recommended.

Very nice driving tutor! Taught me a lot of driving tips via 10lessons! And let me pass the test within a month! Thanks so much for the driving experience with Rashed!

I have just passed my driving test and it's all down to Rashed, his patience, tutelage and knowledge all coming together to teach me how to drive. As I am disabled this has opened so many doors for me and given me my Independence.
I cannot rate or thank Rashed enough 5*

I passed my driving test 1st time with Rashed. He is an outstanding instructor. He is always straight to the point which really helped me pass me pass first time.
Highly recommend!

I thank you Rashed from ADL for helping me pass my driving test in first attempt. Rashed has been very professional and an excellent trainer. He has been very patient especially dealing with me who knew nothing about driving. His continuous encouragement, guidance and coaching for a new learner is worth appreciating. Above all he is very friendly and a true gentleman. I owe this success in my practice test to him and I would definitely recommend him for any new learner for automatic car driving lessons.

Helped me to get rid of bad habits in driving in the initial stages and guided me. Very friendly.
