Thank you Ifrana Bi

Saif driving school is best for new learners, as they have experienced instructor, and Ifrana Bi (she was my instructor) is one of them. Today I finally passed my practical driving test, all thanks to my instructor Ifrana.
She is very patient and supportive, she always encouraged me. I don't think I could pass my driving test without her. I have no words to express my gratitude for her.
I am really thankful to Saif driving school, who provided me such an experienced instructor.
I would recommend Ifrana, to whoever wants learn driving and specially to people who are new in driving as she's very patient and supportive person.
Thank you Ifrana for teaching ne how to drive, I really appreciate your patience, your lessons were very informative, thank you for giving me confidence to drive and for helping me to overcome my nervousness. I really enjoyed learning with you and will miss our lessons.

I’m happy with SAIF Driving School

I am really grateful I got Ifrana as an instructor. She’s fun to be with and is extremely patient. She picks up on my mistakes and corrects them instantly. I’ve had a really good experience with her. Learning how to drive took no time at all.
Thank you SAIF Driving School, and thank you Ifrana

Bobby is amazing

Passing my driving test has honestly been one of the proudest moments of my life, and I know without a doubt that I wouldn’t have achieved it without Bobby. From the very first lesson, she made me feel safe, understood, and genuinely supported. She has this incredible way of teaching that never feels pressured or stressful she stays patient no matter how many mistakes you make, and she always finds a calm, kind way to explain things so they actually stick.
Bobby doesn’t just teach you how to pass a test; she teaches you how to become a confident, thoughtful, and responsible driver. She notices every small detail, celebrates every little improvement, and never gives up on you even when you doubt yourself. Her encouragement honestly changed everything for me. Every lesson with her felt like learning with someone who genuinely cared about my progress, my confidence, and my wellbeing.

I recently passed my driving test at Garrett’s Green on my first attempt with only 4 minors, thanks to Alam Khan from Saif Driving School. He’s a great instructor — very patient, calm, and explains everything clearly. He also showed me some really useful tips and tricks that made a big difference. Highly recommended!

Today I passed my driving lessons

Today I passed my driving lessons. Due to the continued teaching and support from Geeth. He has helped me every step of the journey, enabling me to be able to drive confidently on my own. I have had no issues communicating with him, and with Saif Driving school support. Definitely recommend!

Complete time waster, arrogant and self-absorbed.

The owner of this company, Mr. Saif, has been one of the most disappointing individuals I’ve ever dealt with. He makes false promises, fails to keep appointments, and ignores calls and messages. Communication with him is virtually impossible.

He carries himself as though he’s above everyone else — arrogant, self-absorbed, and constantly boasting about supposed “connections” and “qualifications” that don’t appear to exist. His main concern seems to be taking your money, not providing genuine training or support.

To make matters worse, he is not ORDIT-registered, meaning he is not authorised to provide professional driving instructor training. Despite this, he presents himself as a qualified professional, which is both misleading and unethical.

If you leave a negative comment or review on Facebook, he will block you from his page, which means no one else can see your feedback or warning. This behaviour shows a complete lack of transparency and accountability.

I wasted four months dealing with him — no progress, no communication, and no professionalism. I would strongly advise others to avoid working with him. He lacks honesty, integrity, and respect for his clients.

In short, he’s a money-driven individual who thrives on self-praise and false claims. Don’t waste your time or money — learn from my experience.

Dear Sami k

This review is entirely false and does not reflect the reality of our business or our professional conduct. The individual posting this has never been a verified client, and we have no record of providing any training or taking any payment from them.

If you can provide genuine proof that any payment was made and that training was not delivered, we will gladly refund the full amount — that is our commitment to fairness and transparency.

Regarding qualifications, it is important to note that currently no one is ORDIT-registered. However, Mr. Saif holds a Grade A qualification and is in the process of obtaining his ORDIT registration. Moreover you don’t need to be an ORDIT instructor to train other instructors. We’ve trained hundreds at our school. This just shows you don’t really understand what ORDIT is—it’s a voluntary course, not a compulsory one. His results and the success of his trainees speak for themselves.

The language and accusations in this review strongly suggest it was written by a competitor or someone attempting to damage our reputation. We continue to focus on delivering quality training and maintaining professionalism in all our dealings.

We wish you well and hope you find peace in moving forward positively.

Big thank you to my instructor Ehsan !

Big thank you to my amazing instructor, Ehsan! He’s a true perfectionist, super attentive to every tiny detail and always pushing for things to be done the right way. Thanks to his high standards (and endless patience with my stress 😅), I passed with only two minors!

Sorry for all the headaches I probably caused along the way 😂 but thank you for staying calm and supportive through it all. Wishing you lots of success and many more stress-free students in the future!

Passed first time at Shirley With Ahsan Khan


⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I’m absolutely thrilled to say I passed my driving test first time at Shirley 8:10am, with only one minor, all thanks to my incredible instructor Ahsan Khan! 🚗🎉
Ahsan is honestly the best driving instructor anyone could ask for. He’s extremely kind, patient, and genuinely caring, and he always goes above and beyond to make sure his students feel confident and prepared. From the very first lesson, he made me feel relaxed and supported.
We practised all the important routes, junctions, and roundabouts around Shirley, which helped me feel completely ready for my test. Ahsan explains everything so clearly, pays attention to every small detail, and gives amazing tips that really make a difference. He’s a true expert at teaching — calm, professional, and always positive.
Every lesson was enjoyable, productive, and filled with encouragement. You can tell he genuinely loves what he does and truly cares about helping his students succeed. He’s not just an instructor — he’s a fantastic mentor and a wonderful person.
I’m so grateful for all his help and support. If you’re looking for a highly skilled, friendly, and trustworthy driving instructor, I would 100% recommend Ahsan Khan — he’s simply outstanding! 🌟🙏

I passed my test with Kasiraja

I had my driving lessons with Kasiraja Ganesan from Saif Driving School, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better instructor.
He was incredibly patient, kind, and understanding, and his way of teaching made everything so easy to grasp — even as a complete beginner.

His lessons were always well-organised, the car was clean and comfortable, and he always arrived on time.
I took daily lessons for about two months (except weekends), and I passed my test on the second attempt — the first time I failed only because I got nervous, not because of his teaching!

Kasiraja really helped me build confidence on the road, and I’m so grateful for his calm approach and positivity.
If you’re looking for a driving instructor who genuinely cares about his learners and wants them to succeed, I highly recommend Saif driving school

Thanks Alam

I can't thank my instructor Alam Khan enough. He believed in m even when I did not believe in myself. He encouraged me all through, always emphasizing that I am a good driver and I should not give up. I would not have been able to do this without his teaching and encouragement.
