I can’t thank Usman enough for helping me pass my driving test. From the very first lesson, he was patient, friendly, and incredibly supportive. He always explained things clearly and helped me build confidence at my own pace. Every lesson was well structured, and he made learning to drive an enjoyable experience. If you’re looking for an instructor who genuinely wants you to succeed, I would highly recommend Usman. Thank you so much for all your guidance and encouragement!
Many thanks to Usman for being my instructor over the past few months. Taught me all elements of driving very thoroughly, and made sure I was ready bang on time for my test which I passed first try. I highly recommend you book with Usman if he has availability as he’s the nicest bloke and you’re guaranteed to pass.
My lessons with Usman were Brilliant, after around 8 lessons I passed my test first time. After previous lessons before with other instructors I took a long break away from driving as didn’t think I was getting anywhere, but Usman changed this all for me ! Highly recommend Usman as a driving instructor to anyone !
Don’t think you can get a better instructor than Usman! Very calm, patient and friendly guy. Always in a good mood and explains everything clearly. Made the whole experience less stressful, would recommend to anyone.
Usman is a very good driving instructor with an in depth understanding and experience with the Shieldhall test area. I transferred from Red, and the progress I made with Usman was very impressive. I passed on my first test and I highly recommend F1 Driving.
Usman was my 4th instructor and the first time I had felt ( I can pass with this instructor ). Usman explained things so clearly and for this first time I had confidence that I could actually drive and get my license. I can’t thank Usman enough for everything, I am a person who struggles extremely bad with focus, but Usman broke everything down to make it better to understand which made me calmer and always in the right mindset. I passed first time at Shieldhall 🫶
I went back and forth on whether or not I should l put this review online as during the six months of lessons I took with instructor Usman, I was more than happy with his teaching and had planned to recommend him to others. Unfortunately in the autumn, I received a text from him that he was unavailable for a period of time and afterwards I got ghosted with no responses to my follow-up messages. This meant I had over 2 months away from driving and have had to start over again with someone else. This has hurt my progress as well as my confidence in driving. Given the amount of money I paid each week for our sessions, I am outraged by this treatment. If you no longer feel like we should work together, at least be honest about it! Ghosting students is just not on, extremely bad form.
