A1 Driving Academy Ltd Reviews 

My instructor Tanzeel was an excellent teacher and very patient. He was always calm during lessons and explained everything clearly. He prepared me very well for my driving test, where I passed first time with just a few minors. Overall very happy and would definitely recommend!

I passed my driving test on my first attempt with Manny (second try overall)! I live in Derby but took my test in Burton. I only had 10 hours of lessons (5 sessions) and managed to pass within 30 days’ notice. Manny is very knowledgeable and quickly spotted my weaknesses, helping me improve with clear and effective guidance. I’m really grateful for his support and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a great driving instructor!

Thanks to my instructor Muhammad Tanveer Ahmad
Very nice lesson with him. I passed today but beyond just pass the test, he taught me to be a safe driver ,and better driver than before.
Very fun lesson but honest with weaknesses and help to work on it. I will recommend him. Polite and punctual with lesson as well.

Muhammad Tanveer Ahmad. Thank you for helping me pass my driving test.

My learning experience has been wonderful. Thank you for being so patient and talkative during my lessons to make me feel at ease definitely would recommend to others you won't be disappointed as they have a lot of experience on teaching people how to drive.

I recently passed my driving test on the first try, and I couldn't have done it without Muazzam! He's a fantastic instructor – patient, clear, and really knows how to explain things. Even when I was making mistakes, he helped me understand what I was doing wrong and how to improve. I felt comfortable and confident during every lesson. I highly recommend Muazzam to anyone looking to learn to drive.

I would like to say a massive thank you to Muhammad Tanveer Ahmad… an amazing instructor helped me improve my confidence on the road and expanded my skills having gone to him after issues with a previous instructor at a different company I can say I am a good driver thanks to Muhammad I also passed today thanks to his teaching so I would 100% recommend him as an instructor

Just passed my test 1st time with Josh!!
very good at his job and explained things very clearly. Would recommend highly to anybody looking to learn how to drive. Thanks Josh mate! :)

I messaged A1 driving academy just over a week from my test date, the academy put me in touch with Nav. Took a few lessons with her as i had prior driving experience and I’m so glad i went ahead with her. Her vibes are just so positive, she’s so calm and literally the best instructor i’ve ever had, and i’m really thankful for her taking me on so last minute and taking me to my test by putting her full trust in me. With all this I managed to pass and I’m just so grateful!!! I totally recommend Nav as an instructor she’s the best so positive and so caring. Thank you once again!

Highly recommend!.
I'm please to say that I've passed on my first attempt in just a few months, thanks to Saima. She's been a wonderful instructor, very supportive and patient with me throughtout with clear guidance, but also gave me confidence on the road.
I'm thrilled that I've gone with A1 Driving Academy.
Thank you Saima!.

Would recommend anytime. Passed my test first time with Jazib Ali as my instructor. He was very patient with me and I especially liked that he found a communication style that works better for me so I could fully understand whatever he needed to explain to me. Plus he always had good stories and advice on the road to help keep me calm and focused.

Just passed my driving test today FIRST time all thanks to Josh!! He was very patient with me and explained everything I needed to know to make sure I was 100% ready for my test. I highly recommend him! Thanks Josh!

I passed my driving test today with 4 minor faults. I'm beyond thrilled & relieved at the same time. And first time when I took the lessons it was with another driving school which was a horrible experienc. I then went to the A1 driving academy and I had Babzi as my instructor. Driving test is all about confidence and the way Babzi made me feel during the practice sessions with positivity and encouragement is beyond measurable. I am grateful to A1 and my instructor Babzi. He came at the right time when I needed someone positive, patient. So thank you so much again 😊

Absolutely non professional, keep repeating the same sessions again & again, after spending 10 months when I asked how much more sessions no answer, no clear direction. They don’t have any complain process, which explains their professionalism? 😂 when I tried to complain over the phone, they said “we don’t want to listen crap 💩” lol 
Strongly warn everyone please be very careful booking with them. 
Typical family gang run business 😩 good luck!

I am posting this again, post it previously but than they asked me to remove it and promised to sort out booked a test but wasted three more months, I ll be also complaining them formerly to dvla.

I had a great experiance with one of the best Instructor MR. JAZIB. He is the best one and too friendly, provide felxible timmings and great Traning with Finest Experiance. I clear my test because of Him, in first chance in very minimal time and lessons, just because of his hardwork and patience.

I reccomend everybody just go along with
MR. JAZIB. to get ur driving licecence in very quick time and with the every aspect clear.

Best instructor Babzi, would Highly recommend.

my instructor was great! she made sure i felt ready and comfortable for my test and i passed first time😄

I had an excellent experience learning to drive with Mr. Muhammad Sohil. He is a highly skilled and patient instructor who truly cares about his students’ success. He always arrived on time, was very flexible with scheduling when needed, and made sure I had all the knowledge and practice required to pass my test.

Thanks to his clear guidance and dedication, I passed my driving test on my first attempt with only 2 minor faults. His teaching style is calm, encouraging, and easy to follow, which really boosted my confidence on the road.

If you want to pass your driving test the first time and become a safe, confident driver, I highly recommend contacting him at 07868 980 286.

I had been taking lessons for automatic driving with another instructor for almost a year, but they never allowed me to book a test. Recently, I got a short-notice test date—just 10 days away—and even then, the instructor told me to keep taking lessons without any clear plan for the test.

That’s when I contacted A1 Driving Academy Derby, and they connected me with Haji. He arranged 14 hours of lessons within those 10 days, completely based on my schedule. His teaching was clear, supportive, and focused—thanks to him, I passed my driving test on the first attempt!

I’m truly grateful to A1 Driving Academy Derby and especially Haji. Highly recommended if you’re looking for a reliable instructor and want to pass with confidence
