SDS DRIVING SCHOOL Reviews 

Raj is an amazing instructor! He has built my confidence up so much and always makes me feel at ease while driving. Raj explains things easy so I can understand everything without being overwhelmed. 100% recommend! Best instructor iv ever had.

I had driving lessons with Mandeep Dhaliwal, I can’t recommend her enough! If I could give more than 5 stars I would. Passed first time! She gave me the confidence I never had with my driving. Explains everything well and always goes over everything making sure you’ve understood properly. Thank you so much Mandeep!xxxx

Gurd is an amazing instructor. I have had previous instructors before and none had the patience flexibility or kindness like Gurd-SDS driving school. Helped me pass with no problems!😁

Needed a last minute instructor for my son to polish him up before his test. 2 weeks to go and an instructor messaged and rang, lesson were arranged and block booked. Very accommodating to availability and took the challenge.

Went above and beyond in even lending my son his sat nav with all the test routes, which he didn’t have to.

Excellent service, great instructor. Well done.... just to inform everyone he passed first time.

I’ve done a couple of tests in the past and almost wanted to give up but I thought I’d give it a final push and glad I didn’t give up! Kully is a brilliant instructor he’s super calm and reassuring making me feel confident as a driver. I finally passed! Thank you Kully for your patience and great teaching. Will be recommending to all that want to learn.

My driving instructor from SDS driving school was Aman and she was amazing I would highly recommend her. Despite not having many lessons with her she trusted me to take control of situations and let me learn at my own pace. She remained patient and professional through every lesson and really gave me the confidence boost I needed ! Passed my test a few weeks ago on first attempt thanks to her :)

I wouldn’t recommend this driving school. I am a new driver and I have called to ask if they have an instructors free for me if so what deals they do on block bookings. The phone call was very poor ( 45 sec long if that ) , guy answered.. I have asked the above , he said we don’t do any “ deals “ on the lessons ( even though on their website they are advertising it ) and yeah let me get someone to call you back. I thought okay its fine. I will speak to the instructor and hopefully the person will be more talkative and more informative too. Had a call Thursday night from a lady. She never said her name and she never had any interest to know mine which I think just shows again they don’t provide professional service. She said I am calling from SDS what’s your availability and how many lessons you want ?? I was a bit shocked she went in like that as I wanted to have a single lesson to see how me and the instructor get on and go from there. I said I would only want a lesson and I could make myself available for anytime ( as thought I will take half day holiday as it’s my first ever lesson and I was happy and excited ) she said she cannot tell me her availability for next week as she always puts her schedule together on Saturdays. I said that’s completely fine. We agreed she will let me know on Saturday which she did. She’s confirmed that she booked me in for Monday between 14:00-15:00 and she made a point that she don’t know my name , “ she forget to ask “ so she wanted know lol She booked me ( She told me her name at this point “ AMAN “ ) in and asked me if I want anymore lessons. I just felt like she was pushing me to book more even though I have said to her I want to try 1 lesson and we take it for me there. However I have asked what’s free as I thought if I like the lesson on Monday I will book more for that week. She messaged me to say I am all booked and she will let me know Sunday when she can do more lessons after my first one. She said she can do a few more lessons but I thought I wait till my first lesson and speak to her about my future driving lessons… so I have booked half day holiday for Monday as my lesson was between 14:00-15:00 and I just wanted to be calm and just focus on my first driving experience. So Monday I have had a feeling so I sent her a message to ask would the lesson still be today ? She sent me a message back your lesson on Tuesday and Thursday ( even though I only booked 1 lesson she said I have 2 booked ) I literally was so upset and angry at the same time. She sent me a causal message when I said you booked me in for Monday 14:00 - “ Oh yes but then there was plan change after that that’s why I swapped for the time “
Really ?? She swapped the day and the time without saying anything to me!!!! Seriously who wouldn’t be fuming ??
I have book holiday to take this lesson and if I don’t message her Monday morning she would never let me know there will be no lesson for me . This company just made me so disappointed as I have had some hard times getting up to this moment ( due to my medical situation as I have epilepsy ) when I can actually learn to drive. I was so happy and excited and she just casually saying .. oh yeah you don’t have a lesson today , swapped you over with someone.. without asking if I am okay with that or even knowing if I am free ? This deeply upsets me as I don’t think they realise for some people this isn’t just a driving lesson .. for me it was much more. I had my heart and soul in it and I got let down massively. I am not saying they doing this to everyone. I just wanted people to know I have a reason why I wouldn’t recommend this driving school to anyone as they have made me really upset and let me down. Hopefully they will treat other people differently and more professional! P.S - since then I have had a couple of lessons and I love it 😄 I have found my driving instructor.

Raj is an outstanding instructor, not only is he patient and professional, he teaches in a way that is easy to understand whilst not being overwhelming at the same time. I was extremely nervous to learn to drive again as I had lost my confidence having not driven for many years. All those 2/3 hour lessons were absolutely worth it. Could not have passed if I didn't put in the work. You get out what you put in! Thanks again Raj!

Just passed my driving practical with the help of SDS Driving school, big shoutout to my driving instructor manny for helping me pass. He always made sure that I was making progress and giving helpful tips and tricks to improve my driving and most importantly never made me feel nervous or pressured.

Raj is the Best driving instructor out there, I transferred from manual with another company and this is the best company ever, raj learns me in a way and pace that I’m happy with and that I actually learn and understand
Enquire now you will not regret it!

My driving instructor Raj is amazing, can’t thank him enough! he taught me everything I needed to know, was always calm, chatty and made me feel really comfortable and confident (even when i got things wrong). He was very patient with me and his teaching skills are amazing adapting to my needs and using reference points to teach me at my learning speed,Honestly could not recommend him enough - Thank you Raj:)

I sinply cannot recommend SDS driving school enough, especially my instructor Sid. He understood my requirements and tailored our intensive course perfectly. He turned me into a confident driver within a couple of weeks, and helped me pass first time!
If you are looking for a driving instructor, give them a call. Well recommended 👌

A big thank you to Sid, at SDS driving school brilliant driving instructor very
Patient and really helped me with my Nervousness whilst driving.. honestly wouldn’t have passed without him today. I highly recommend this driving school to everyone
Thanks again,
Kelly.

Cannot recommend SDS Driving school enough!! As a nervous and anxious driver my instructor Sid made me feel at ease and had so much patience with me with a high standard of driving knowledge. I was able to learn how to conquer my fears and pass my test first time! Thank you so much SDS Driving!

High recommend this driving school! Passed first time with Gurd, which I never expected to be able to do! Really professional and tailors lessons to your needs. The flexibility of lessons and lesson structure guarantees a pass. Thanks again Gurd!

Gurd is a genuine and reliable instructor with great service and punctuality. I would highly recommend him to anyone learning to drive as my progression within each lesson wouldn’t be possible without his guidance. Many instructors can become impatient with learner drivers, however Gurd was very patient and encouraging, allowing me time to focus and correct my mistakes whilst overcoming my nerves. This strengthened my confidence on the road and soon I was test ready! Thank you again to Gurd-top quality service :)

Passed my test today! Was a bit nerve wrecking but a massive thank you to my instructor Sid at SDS! Great teacher, would recommend to anyone.

I have had a great experience with my driving instructor Shelly from SDS driving school. Shelly stayed professional throughout all of my lessons. She was very patient with me, if I didn’t understand something she would go over and over it with me untill I understood it… She always gave me the reassurance i needed. Would definitely recommend Shelly to other learners.

Had gurd as my instructor. Very good instructor. Explained every situation very easily and clearly. Made sure you didn’t feel nervous or scared. Very patient and did a brilliant job at helping me pass my driving test.

I can joyfully say I have passed my practical test with the help of my instructor shelly. Who is extremely patient, friendly and professional. She has always made me feel at ease and never distressed. She was my first and only instructor, I cannot recommend her enough.
