Im really thankful to Khurram Shahzad, my instructor at Shah Driving School. He is very kind, polite, and patient. He teaches on a manual car and explains everything clearly, which made learning so easy for me. Because of his excellent guidance, I passed my driving test on the first attempt!
I will recommend him for everyone because the way he teaches to his students.

Today, I passed my Manual driving test, and I want to give my best review for my instructor, Khurram Shahzed. He is extremely humble, kind, and respectful, which made my learning experience very comfortable. For new learners, I highly recommend him, as his teaching style is not only productive but also very encouraging. He puts in 200% effort to ensure his students learn and gain confidence on the road.
A big thank you as well to Shah Driving School for having such a dedicated and professional instructor on their team.

Dear Rukhsaar bhai,
I just want to sincerely thank you for the way you taught me. You never dragged out the lessons for money or wasted my time, you only focused on exactly what I needed to learn to be ready for the test. That honesty and professionalism really meant a lot to me.
Even when you were strict or firm, I now understand it was for my own good. Your discipline and guidance pushed me to do better, and honestly, I wouldnt have passed without it.
I truly respect and appreciate the effort you put into making me a safe and confident driver. Thanks to you, I was fully prepared for my UK driving test and achieved my full licence.
Ill always remember your hard work and the values you taught me behind the wheel. Thank you once again for everything.
Best regards

I passed my manual driving test, and I couldnt have done it without my amazing instructor Khurram. I started from scratch with no experience, and he was so patient, calm, and supportive throughout every lesson. He always explained things clearly and never made me feel stressed. Khurram is very professional, friendly, and truly cares about his students. Im so grateful for his help and highly recommend him to anyone who wants to learn driving the right way. Thank you so much, Khurram!

It was a terrific news when I was told I passed the test with Shah driving school and the Great Ali. Great instructor, personable and instructions easy to digest !
Nice and smooth car. I learnt a lot of driving tips from
Ali as learner . Nerves , observations and self judging was my challenges rather than the control of the car. He helped me to fix those and I passed confidently! Highly recommend Ali and Shah Driving School!

I passed my driving test on Tuesday. I would like to thank Shah Driving School and the instructor Ali they chose for me. I was very disappointed after failing 5 times and approached Shah Driving School. They introduced me to a gentleman named Mr. Ali as my instructor. I became a good driver after just a few classes. I passed on my first attempt. He was not only a driving instructor but also a good mentor and well-wisher. Thank you very much once again Mr. Ali. You are an Amazing driving instructor.
