I am very satisfied with my driving lessons. My instructor Özcan explained everything clearly, patiently corrected my mistakes, and helped me build my confidence with every lesson. They taught me practical driving skills as well as important road safety and traffic awareness, making me feel well-prepared for both the driving test and everyday driving. Their professionalism, patience, and supportive attitude made the learning experience enjoyable and stress-free. I truly appreciate all their help and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a great driving instructor.
Marvellous experience! I had have driving instructors in the pass but Özcan was everything that I wanted in a driving instructor; Patient, Direct, corrects exactly what is needed, don't overload you with instructions, and have laser focus approach to what you need to correct. Everything in a very respectful way, with enough energy to make you understand but always respecting you and believing in your abilities and what you could improve. The amount of driving lessons were exactly the ones I needed and understanding my needs perfectly. I cannot be happier, I pass the test on the first try under his teachings. 100% recommend it!
Thank you, Mr. Ozcan, for helping both my wife and me pass our driving tests. You are an excellent instructor who knows how to help your students succeed and build the confidence they need to perform well during the exam. Your patience, guidance, and expertise made a real difference, and we truly appreciate all your support.
Rasul was an excellent driving instructor. His lessons were always engaging, enjoyable, and well structured, helping me pass my driving test with only three driving faults. He was clear in his explanations, patient throughout, and always supportive when I needed extra help. Rasul was also very flexible and always did his best to fit lessons around my working hours, which I really appreciated. He tailored each lesson to my needs and focused on the areas where I needed the most improvement. I couldn't recommend him highly enough. If you're looking for a knowledgeable, patient, and reliable driving instructor, Rasul at the Cambridge Driving Academy is a fantastic choice.
A huge thank you to Ozcan for helping me pass my driving test on my first attempt! He has been an excellent teacher, in particular with great attention to detail that has honed my technique, and extraordinary patience. Throughout the course of our lessons he has helped me build my confidence so much, and his encouragement has meant that I have not only been able to pass but, most importantly, that I feel well equipped to drive safely in the future. I’ll miss seeing him for our weekly lessons! Thanks Ozcan :)

Finding the right driving instructor for our autistic son was a priority, and we struck gold with Yama and CDA. His professionalism, combined with a genuine empathy for neurodivergent students, set him apart. Yama demonstrated an incredible ability to foster our son’s driving skills while simultaneously nurturing his confidence and independence. He was adept at identifying and addressing specific challenges, always finding creative and effective teaching methods. The progress our son made under Yama’s tutelage was phenomenal, culminating in him successfully obtaining his license after his first test. We are immensely grateful to Yama for his dedication and for providing our son with the invaluable gift of independent mobility. Would definitely recommend CDA & Yama for anyone looking for themselves or their child to drive.

Rasul was an excellent instructor, making my time in the car - both in lessons and the test - very enjoyable.
I would not be half the driver I am without his patient guidance, and would recommend this teaching to anyone looking to become not only a good driver but, in time, an excellent driver.

The service provided is excellent! All instructors I had the pleasure of driving with were great at guiding me and prepping me for my test. They were easy to communicate with and made the lessons easy to do and learn from. 10/10 would recommend anyone in the Cambridge area to give them a shot

I had a great experience learning with Sab from CDA and passed my test first time thanks to his excellent teaching. Sab is calm, patient, and explains things clearly, which made it quicker and easier to improve. From the start he quickly understood my ability and adapted the lessons accordingly, so the time was always used efficiently and I never felt like any lesson time was wasted. In the lead up to the test he helped me stay calm and confident, and gave me lots of useful tips that made a real difference on the day. His car was always clean and comfortable, and it was a great car to learn in. Overall I could not fault the experience and would highly recommend Sab to anyone looking for a professional and reliable driving instructor. Thank you Sab!

After not having practiced/driven for months and feeling very rusty, I spent the weekend with Ahmad Siddiqui from CDA. He was very patient, explaining everything in a calm and helpful manner. When I was feeling nervous he reassured me and helped me regain my confidence. Thanks to him, by Monday morning I was able to pass my test first time.

I highly recommend Sab from Cambridge Driving Academy. I have a foreign manual license but have not been driving manual much and also needed a couple of lessons to get used to driving on British road. Sab was highly professional, patient, and provided lessons tailored to my individual needs. The lessons are extremely informative and technical, which is exactly what I had needed. As a result I was able to pass my test with only a few hours of lessons. Huge thanks to Sab and I highly recommend him and the Cambridge Driving Academy.

To call Reza merely a driving instructor would be a profound understatement; he is an Afghan gentleman whose grace behind the wheel is matched only by his exquisite temperament.
Learning to navigate the labyrinth of UK winding narrow roads and ever-shifting policies can be incredibly stressful, but Reza provides a sanctuary of calm. Unlike many instructors, he never shouts, never curses, and never teaches bad habits. Instead, he completely re-engineers your relationship with driving. If you come to him carrying a heavy baggage of bad habits, he dismantles them with surgical precision and immense patience. Before you know it, you are driving with absolute élan and effortless fluidity.
His teaching style is infused with a quiet, magnetic confidence. Because of his flawless technique and honest approach, the vast majority of his learners pass on their very first attempt like I did! When test day arrives, his bespoke tips leave you exuding a serene, unshakeable confidence.
Beyond the pedals and mirrors, Reza is a joy to be around. Every lesson feels less like a chore and more like a scenic drive with a deeply wise friend. If you want to conquer the roads with safety, style, and absolute calm, look no further. Five stars are simply not enough for this wonderful human being.

I passed my practical driving test within a month thanks to the fast-track VIP lessons, which, while slightly more expensive, are absolutely worth it. Mr. Zairai Safi is an outstanding instructor—friendly, patient, and incredibly knowledgeable. He quickly identifies and corrects any driving issues in the most effective way, making the learning process smooth and stress-free. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a skilled and supportive driving instructor!

Passed my test first go!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I just passed my driving test on my first go after only 20 hours of driving! My instructor Ozcan Yildirim did an amazing job of teaching me. Whenever I made a mistake, he immediately went back over it to make sure I fully understood and fixed it. Before the test, he suggested me to doing an hour warm up drive and that really helped! I actually made a small mistake during that warm up and learned from it, and that exact same situation came up in my test. Thanks to him and I handled it perfectly.
Big shout out to Ozcan and highly recommend taking lessons with him❗️❗️
Wish you all the best in the future!
Christopher
