EXCELLENT Based on 78 reviews Posted on isatou combehTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Thank you once again Mehran. You’ve been wonderfully professional throughout our journey. You’ve been so patient and supportive and you deserve all the compliments. I am over the moon. I thank the Almighty for you crossing my path, as a knowledgeable instructor. I wish you many more passes with your students.Posted on Alexios AbramovTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I wholeheartedly recommend SAMZ Automatic Driving School and my instructor, Saad. My learning journey took about 6-7 months (excluding breaks), and it was an excellent experience. Saad creates a light-hearted and fun atmosphere, using humour to ease the tension, which makes lessons something to look forward to. Most importantly, his teaching method is exceptional. He focuses intensely on building the correct habits for safe, lifelong driving, not just to pass the test. His key approach: if you make a mistake somewhere, you go back and repeat that exact manoeuvre or route until it's perfected. While it might seem he's very particular about errors, this rigorous method is designed to minimise and eliminate mistakes completely, ensuring they don't become bad habits. Thanks to Saad's patience, clear instruction, and this "practice until perfect" philosophy, I passed my test with confidence. I left as a safe and prepared driver, not just a test candidate. A fantastic instructor and a great school!Posted on Nik NokTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Just passed the test today!

May Jehovah bless youPosted on berika ceren cihanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I passed my practical driving test today with only two minors, and Saad played a major role in this success. He is exceptionally professional, calm, and always punctual. His teaching approach is outstanding. He doesn’t just train you to pass the test; he teaches you how to drive safely, confidently and thoughtfully for the rest of your life. Thanks to him, I now feel much more in control on the road and far more self-assured in all driving situations. He quickly identifies the areas you struggle with and guides you through them with incredible patience and clarity. Every lesson felt both productive and genuinely enjoyable. He is also very friendly and easy to talk to, which makes the whole learning process much less stressful and much more encouraging. I’m truly grateful to have trained with him, and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, supportive, and trustworthy instructor. Thank you again for everything, Saad.Posted on Raheel KhanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Pass Plus is a practical training course designed to help newly qualified drivers build confidence, improve skills and develop safer driving habits. The course lasts a minimum of six hours and is especially beneficial within the first year after passing your test, although it can be taken at any time. Training must be delivered by a Pass Plus registered Approved Driving Instructor (ADI), and successful completion may help reduce your car insurance premium, depending on your insurer.
The programme covers six modules: driving in town, in all weathers, on rural roads, at night, on dual carriageways and on motorways. Most of the training is practical, with at least five and a half hours spent driving, although some elements may be theory-based if local conditions require it. There is no final test; instead, you are assessed throughout the course and must reach the required standard in each module to successfully complete the programme.
If you are considering a rewarding new career, our Driving Instructor Training Programme provides structured guidance towards qualifying as an Approved Driving Instructor (ADI). Through professional tuition, mentoring and practical preparation, you will receive support at every stage of the qualification process. This pathway offers the opportunity to build a sustainable career, contribute to safer roads and empower new drivers with the skills and confidence required for lifelong independence.
