Terrible

Terrible. Hassan was my instructor who kept cancelling on me one time on the day then caught an attitude when I got sick and notified him on the day. Also tried to charge me for another 10 hours before I even finished my first 10. Called customer service to complain and change instructor but they are still yet to call me back so I’m going to have to call them again. Really regret using this company please avoid.

I highly recommend Bina!

I highly recommend Bina as a driving instructor. She is such a kind, calm, and patient teacher who made learning to drive a really positive experience. I had lessons with her consistently for 4 months, and thanks to her guidance, I passed my driving test first time!!

Bina was always confident in my abilities and explained everything clearly. She is incredibly patient, calm, and supportive, which helped me become a confident driver. I genuinely looked forward to our lessons because she made them so enjoyable and fun.

I’m so grateful for all of her support, encouragement, and patience. If you’re looking for an instructor who genuinely cares about her students and helps them build confidence, I couldn’t recommend Bina more highly!

Great driving lessons with Hassan

Hassan was a brilliant instructor - he prepared me so well for the test. All his advice has made me a safer and more confident driver and the lessons were also really enjoyable. He knew all the test routes around Hendon and prepared me for all the potentially tricky moments - would encourage anyone learning to drive to have lessons with Hassan!

Instructor Vips

My instructor Vips, was the best instructor I could have asked for, he prepared me for everything I would need to know for the test and general driving afterwards. He was patient, and very helpful. Passed my test first time, all I can say is he’s amazing!

5 Star Teaching!

Passed first time and I couldn't have done it without Hassan! From day one, he was calm, patient, and incredibly clear in his explanations. He had a real talent for breaking down tricky manoeuvres and building my confidence behind the wheel. Lessons were always well-structured and I never felt rushed. Genuinely the best decision I made was booking with him. Highly recommend to anyone!⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Best driving instructor

Having no experience driving before, Vips explained everything properly which made a big difference and was also very patient . The lessons allowed me to focus on the areas I needed to improve on, which helped build my confidence quickly.

On test day I felt well prepared, and everything we covered in lessons translated directly into the test.

Would definitely recommend Vips to anyone learning to drive whether you have driven before or not.

Great driving lessons allowed me to… pass first try

I had a fantastic experience with WeWantDrivingLessons and couldn’t recommend them more highly. Thanks to their structured approach, supportive instructors, and clear guidance, I managed to pass my driving test first time!

From the very beginning, everything was well organised and tailored to my needs. My instructor was patient, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable, which really helped build my confidence behind the wheel. They explained things in a simple, easy-to-understand way and always made sure I felt comfortable before moving on to more challenging skills.

What stood out most was how focused the lessons were on real test scenarios and safe driving habits, rather than just ticking boxes. This made a huge difference on test day, as I felt fully prepared and calm.

If you’re looking for a reliable and effective driving school that genuinely helps you succeed, I’d definitely recommend WeWantDrivingLessons. Passing first time is proof of how great their teaching is!

She is patient, professional, and explains everything clearly, which makes learning much easier. I’m really happy with my experience so far and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a great driving instructor.
