I passed my driving test yesterday, (even with some medical problems caused by stress and anxiety). Yay! Lack of my UK driving license meant having to take taxies to work every day. Taxi being unreliable, work may not finish on time, having to pay not-so-cheap fare everytime, yes, getting the license was a top priority. My instructor was Zahid. He has expertises not only in driving skill teaching but also finding an earlier appointment. With (quite a steep) fee, among his driver’s chat groups, he got me the best-possible date in the desired test centre. I was so happy and impressed how quickly this change happened. Zahid was amazing in very quickly figures out my weak points in driving, and focus on overcoming them one by one. For example, as I was not used to looking ahead and kept missing the speed signs, he tasked me to say the speed at loud every time I see a sign. With this exercise, I become more alert with road-side signs in general. Zahid is always calm and he has many different ways to convey teachings. As soon as he realised I was not understanding him very well just by description an event while driving, he asked me to stop the car in a side road, used the picture book to fully-explain what I did wrong. With the new test date, rather than in 6 months originally, I had 5 days until my exam. Zahid really bent his daily schedule to accommodate me to take lessons in late hours, after my work in London, or on weekend early mornings. I am so very grateful that he really prioritised my pass over his life!Moreexpand_more
I just passed my driving test first time and it’s all thanks to my amazing instructor, Kim Hart! She’s incredibly experienced and always knew exactly how to help me improve. Kim picked up on my mistakes and taught me how to fix them with patience and clarity. She wasn’t just a great instructor, but also a friend - I genuinely looked forward to our lessons, chats, and laughs every week. I’ll really miss them, but I’m so grateful for everything she’s done for me. I highly recommend Kim to anyone learning to drive - you’ll be in the best hands!
Just passed first time with Kim Hart! Such an amazing instructor, she was really patient with me while I was learning and really helped me to build confidence in my driving. I was really dreading driving to start with but she made lessons really enjoyable and I always looked forward to them. Highly recommend!
I had Lee as my driving instructor. He was always very calm and kept me motivated throughout the whole year I was learning with him. He made sure I was 100% prepared before letting me go and take the test because I feel like he honestly cares about his students and wants them to pass first time. Very good driving school and I would definitely recommend Elite to other people learning to drive.
Passed yesterday with Brian Lynch! I had previously taken lessons with other instructors before switching to Brian, and the difference was night and day. Brian is truly on another level—his patience, kindness, and ability to adapt to his students’ needs are outstanding. From the start, he made sure to create a supportive and encouraging learning environment, which helped me gain confidence behind the wheel. He is incredibly flexible with scheduling, always trying to accommodate his students as much as possible. If you’re looking for an instructor who genuinely cares about his students and goes the extra mile to help them succeed, I cannot recommend Brian enough. Thank you, Brian, for everything!
Kim Hart is an amazing driving instructor! Thanks to her, I passed my driving test first time. She is reliable and her lessons are always carefully planned to focus on individual needs. Kim didn’t just help me pass my test, she gave me the skills and confidence to be an independent driver. I'll truly miss our weekly chats and her funny stories during lessons. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a top-notch instructor!
I took my manual driving lessons with Sue from Elite Driving and I would really recommend Sue to anyone! I really enjoyed our lessons each week, Sue made me feel confident and comfortable driving and her knowledge really helped me pass first time! Thank you so much Sue!
I took my lessons with Kim Hart who helped me pass first time! Her lessons are thorough and she can adeptly adapt her lessons to your learning style. I would recommend Kim Hart as she knows the test areas very well and can share lots of valuable tips for those areas. Thank you Kim!
I took lessons with Kim Hart for around a year and passed yesterday first time with two minors. Thank you, Kim. She was very reliable and punctual and had a plan for each lesson. When it came to the test, it felt easy in comparison. And I didn't come across better prices elsewhere.
I managed to pass my test first time after taking lessons with Tony. His relaxed and encouraging attitude helped me make good progress in the lessons. The friendly chatting and jokes during lessons made things less stressful and something to look forward to. I would highly recommend Tony and Elite!
