A1 Driving Academy Ltd Reviews 

Muhammed has been a brilliant instructor! He remained patient and professional at all times and is very skilled in boosting confidence! I’m very grateful for his guidance throughout my lessons with him and appreciate his detailed teaching approach in helping me pass!
Thankyou!

Absolutely amazing driving school, never had a lesson i wasn't happy with and my instructor (Muhammad Tanveer Ahmad) was a confident and calm instructor.

I’ve been with zaf for a few months and he was alway welcoming on every lesson he was clear with lesson plans and always asked if I had any questions. He made me aware of my strengths and weaknesses and he always made sure I understood where I was going wrong and what we needed to do moving forward. I’d recommend him and the A1 team to any new or experienced Lerner's

I had a great experience learning to drive with my instructor Manny. He helped to build my confidence and made this goal achievable. I highly recommend A1 driving academy.

I can’t recommend A1 Driving School and my instructor Manny highly enough. From day one, the lessons were professional, well-structured, and genuinely confidence-boosting. My instructor was incredibly patient, calm, and clear, even when I made mistakes, and always took the time to explain things in a way that actually made sense.
What really stood out was how supportive and encouraging the whole experience was — I never felt rushed or judged, just guided and motivated to improve. Each lesson was tailored to my progress, and I could see my skills and confidence growing every week.
Thanks to A1 Driving School and an amazing instructor (MANNY), I felt fully prepared and confident going into my driving test, I passed my test first time with only three minors. If you’re looking for a driving school that truly cares about your success and makes learning to drive a positive experience, look no further. Highly recommended!

I was with Tanzeel, everything is spot one.
We practiced all test routes and nothing was new in the test, passed from first time.

was with saima. met her about 2 months ago and passed today first time with no minors!! she is a lovely instructor and will help to get that pass.

From the very start a1 has been incredible supporting me with my driving journey, I called with 2 weeks before my test due to my original test being cancelled with the ice at the start on Jan. Manny stepped in to help me with my lessons. I can’t recommend a1 enough as I passed first time with 3 minors! Manny is an asset to a1 and is highly knowledgeable, friendly and provides a calming presence which enables you to feel confident while driving, I cannot thank him and a1 enough for the short time I’ve been a leaner with them! 10/10 would highly recommend!

Amazing experience, lessons were tailored to my learning speed. I passed first time! Manny was very patient with me and feedback during and after lessons was very constructive. Asif had to step in on my test date but he was great too helped calm my nerves.

I had such a positive experience learning to drive with my instructors Manny and Haji. They were incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and always tailored lessons to what I needed. They helped build my confidence, corrected mistakes constructively, and made learning feel achievable. I’m so thankful for all the guidance and support.

I had an excellent learning experience with Saima, and I couldn’t be happier with the lessons I received from the very beginning of my driving journey. She is highly professional, patient, and incredibly supportive. Every lesson was well planned, clear, and perfectly paced.

Saima is extremely knowledgeable and quickly identified my weaknesses, helping me improve with clear and effective guidance in every session. Thanks to her patience and dedication, I passed my driving test with flying colours. Her teaching style is calm, friendly, encouraging, and very easy to follow, which gave me a great deal of confidence on the road.

She genuinely cares about her students—not just about passing the test, but about becoming confident and safe drivers for the future. I am truly grateful for her support and would highly recommend her to anyone learning to drive. Thank you so much again 😊

Thankyou Too Tashfeen On Passing My Driving Test I Just Passed With Tashfeen Akhtar Today The Best Driving Instructor In Derby So Calm So Intelligent Wicked To Learn With Never Gets Frustrated Or Anything Makes You Learn From A-Z Quick Never Had Any issues With This Instructor From The Start To The Finish. The Best Instructor By Far. Would Recommend Her All Day Long Thankyou Once Again 🥰

Passed first time with Tan as my instructor. Great teacher and super patient.

I had a great experience with Tan and couldn’t be happier with the lessons I received. They were patient, professional and supportive which made learning to drive feel much less stressful. Lessons were clear and well paced and helpful tips that boosted my confidence behind the wheel. I would highly recommend Tan for anyone looking for a positive and effective experience.

I went with A1 driving academy initially because the prices were the best I could find in the entire city. When I initially started driving lessons with my instructor Saima, I was anxious in the car, very nervous to drive, and honestly I was all over the place. In a considerably short amount of time, Saima got me driving test ready, she very quickly got my anxiety out the way, and had massively improved my driving ability. She never tried to make me do more lessons than needed, and always checked to make sure we were coving parts that I wanted to improve on while ensuring that we were covering all thing necessary to pass. By the time I was ready for my test, I was calm and confident in my ability and this lead me to pass first time with only three minors in total. I can not be more pleased with my experience and I would recommend this school and specifically my instructor Saima to anyone who needs to learn to drive! Overall a fantastic experience!

Muhammad Tanveer Ahmad is an excellent instructed, I had lessons over 6 months, and passed my driving test first time thanks to him!

I passed my test today on my first attempt thanks to M. Rizwan at A1 Driving Academy. He was an excellent instructor — patient, always on time, and really helped me build my confidence behind the wheel. He made sure I could fit in all the lessons I needed before my test. The school replied quickly when I first contacted them and everything was really well organised. Couldn’t be happier! Thank you!

Nothing but positive things to say about my instructor Tanzeel. Super patient and explained everything really clearly. Definitely would recommend him as he’s thorough and prepared me so well for my test! Passed on my first time Allhamdullilah. Not only that but he’s super accommodating to my schedule and is more than happy to make it at a time that’s best for me.
