MJ Driving School Leeds carries a 4.7-star average from 514 Google reviews, with several different instructors named individually, including Beston, Hona, Paul and Arshed Lodhi. A recurring theme is instructors helping anxious pupils recover confidence after a car accident, a difficult previous instructor, or a run of nerves, with clear, repeated explanations mentioned often. As with any school covering several instructors, experiences vary somewhat between them, though the majority of reviews describe patient, encouraging tuition and first-time passes. Beston's willingness to go over points as many times as needed stands out among the feedback.

4.7 / 5 · 514 totalPassed first time. Hona Ghate is a very good instructor. She helped me pass with less then 30 hours. She is also very patient and even when I made mistakes, and she helped build my confidence massively. I’d highly recommend her to anyone learning to drive, whether you’re a complete beginner or getting ready for your test. Thank you for all your help. Will forever be grateful.
Was given the instructor named Stephen Knight who turned out to be absolutely useless and was only interested in bulk booking lessons with little actual learning going on. Was not even interested in giving a mock test and rushed me through the manoeuvres even though we had plenty of time for it in the lesssons. His attitude is very poor, often not showing up on time (but alwaays making sure that the lessons end early), also not encouraging but rather making you feel like crap and feel like you're not making progress at all! Ive seen other positive reviews so Im sure there must be other good instructors from MJ but Stephen is definitely not one of them. I ended up booking a rental car from Arnold Clark just so I wouldnt have to go through that nightmare of going on a test with him again and passed on my first try! saved me a lot of money too.
I am very thankful to my instructor Arshed. I passed first time at Colton despite driving not coming very naturally to me. Arshed was always understanding, patient and explained things thoroughly. He is very dedicated to teaching and relaxes you. I have enjoyed my lessons with him and we have had lots of laughs. I can’t recommend him enough. Thank you again!
I had a great experience learning to drive a manual with instructor Yaqub. Very reliable and productive lessons. Definitely the best instructor I had out of 5 different ones and helped me finally pass my test! MJ also had someone observe one of our lessons to make sure it was up to standard and I thought this showed good quality control, so I would definitely recommend this driving school.
Naila was my driving instructor and I can’t thank her enough for the patience she has had with me. Naila is an amazing instructor who constantly ensured that I always felt calm, safe and understood exactly what I was doing. She always comforted me and guided me whenever I made a mistake and would never make me feel bad for so. I couldn’t recommend anyone better as a driving teacher than Naila.
I highly recommend Arshed as a driving instructor, he was always calm, professional, and really helpful throughout every lesson. His teaching style made me feel comfortable and confident behind the wheel, even when I was nervous at the start. Thanks to his patience and support, I managed to pass my driving test first time in just 10 weeks . Thank you again for all your help!
I had such a great experience with Hona as my driving instructor, and I passed first time! I genuinely couldn’t have asked for a better instructor. She was always calm and patient, which really helped build my confidence while driving. She explained everything clearly and supported me through every situation, even when I was nervous or unsure. I’m really grateful for all her help and would highly recommend her to anyone learning to drive.
