‘To whom it may concern,
Reg was my Instructor and I am taking this opportunity to write a review on him and his services. As an experienced driver, I had to retake my full licence when I moved to London from America and learn to drive on the left side of the road on the tiniest streets.
Reg was a wonderful Instructor, he made me feel comfortable at all times,gave me simple and great advice for me to nail a manoeuvre the first time. Reg was always on time and even early for all our lessons together and his smile and positive attitude put me at ease. His car was clean and smelt nice,he refrained from taking calls or being distracted in any way.
I passed my driving test the first time I took it and I am grateful to Reg because I know I could not have done it without him. I was well prepared and confident when I arrived at the test centre.
I am so grateful for all the time he spent and shifting his schedule around to accommodate me especially on Sundays.
I highly recommend him to anyone wishing to have a stress-free professional Instructor.
Thank you so very much! See you on the road’.

Sarah Salmi’

I recently passed my driving test first time thanks to Leon at Chelsea driving school! My experience was nothing but positive, Leon was really patient, an excellent teacher, and made sure that after every lesson he recapped everything covered so we could build on it next time. He made me feel confident going into my test. So grateful to Leon for helping me pass!

Before learning to drive with Maria Adineh, I was a very nervous mature student, uncomfortable around even light traffic. I trembled even at the sight of pedestrians, cycles, motorbikes… Maria gave me the confidence to pass my test with just four minors. She was not only a calm, methodical instructor, but just as importantly, she understood my particular needs and anxieties and responded with friendly encouragement, sympathy, positivity – and exceptional patience. As I progressed and prepared for my test, her combination of skills made all the difference. My driving license is down to her – an outstanding guide and instructor.

I’ve had a great experience with Chelsea Driving school. I just passed my test first time and that was thanks to my incredible driving instructor, Ahmed. Ahmed made our lessons enjoyable and was so supportive and patient all the way through. He made the process of driving fun and I looked forward to our lessons together. He has also taught my sister and we cannot recommend him as a driving instructor enough!

I had 29 years of driving experience in my home country, but learning to drive in the UK—with different rules, right-hand drive, and opposite traffic flow—was a completely new experience for me. Maria from Chelsea Driving School Ltd made this transition so much easier. Her calm, patient, and encouraging teaching style helped me quickly adapt to UK driving rules and build my confidence behind the wheel. She explained everything clearly, corrected my habits with care, and always made me feel supported. Thanks to her excellent guidance, I passed my driving test on the first attempt! I’m truly grateful for Maria’s dedication and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a brilliant instructor.

Leon was my instructor, he was amazing!! Thanks to him, I passed first time!He taught me so much along the way, not just for the test but also for general day to day driving. I felt very confident for the test, as he prepared me so well with all the different scenarios and mock tests.He was always super calm and patient, and always helping me improve my driving and awareness on the road, plus he gave me really helpful summaries after each lesson.Also, I really enjoyed learning from someone who is a proper 'driver' with a clear passion for driving! This made me enjoy the lessons even more and made me more confident and excited to start driving on my own.So, definitely ask for Leon, he is fantastic!! Thanks again!

I’ve reached out to Chelsea driving school after a stressful experience with another driving school which made a very anxious driver. I’ve been assigned to Ronnie and managed to pass my test on the first try which I never thought would be possible. Ronnie is the best possible teacher, he makes you feel at ease when driving and his instructions and feedback are precise and build on prior experience from lesson to lesson. His targeted approach ensures you get comfortable with the different traffic conditions in no time. I couldn’t recommend Ronnie enough for anyone looking for a driving instructor!

Ronnie is an exceptional driving instructor. From the first time in the car he put me at my ease and gave me confidence and belief that I could be a driver. He was extremely attentive and hardworking and didn't let me fall into bad habits. He is also an extremely likeable man and I always enjoyed his company. I cannot recommend him highly enough. To my delight and Ronnie's credit I passed first time!

Ronnie is a wonderful teacher. Most importantly, he is absolutely the reason I passed my test on the first try. I felt totally prepared and Ronnie really helped build my confidence that I was ready to pass. His feedback is thoughtful and he put me at ease while driving, not overly focusing on small corrections, but giving targeted feedback that really resonated and sunk in. I’d wholeheartedly recommend Ronnie to anyone I know looking for a driving instructor!

My son passed his test with Mary Heravi and we were so delighted to have been recommended to her. We moved from another School and the difference in her teaching was huge. She is kind, knowledgeable and very professional. I was grateful that she always communicated quickly about lesson logistics and guided my son through the whole process. I wouldn't go anywhere else in future!

Marian, my instructor, was so helpful, encouraging and really taught me to be aware of, not only how to pass the test, but also how to be a better driver and understand road safety in general. He made driving make sense instead of a formulaic process that everyone has to get past. I would highly recommend this company and its instructors.

I passed my driving test first time today having had Tariq as my instructor. He was very patient, encouraging and explained things clearly. I was a nervous driver before but now am much more confident thanks to Tariq. Chelsea Driving School was also very quick in putting me in contact so I could begin my lessons quickly. I would highly recommend both using both the Driving School and Tariq to learn to drive!

I’ve just passed my driving test first time! I had lessons with Mary who is truly an amazing Driving instructor. She really cares about her student’s success and really helped me gain confidence from the very beginning, she is very patient and all the lessons are really well structured.

My instructor was Maryam, she was a lovely lady who was very patient and understanding in our lessons when helping me to learn the rules of the road and safety checks. In particular during the lessons if I done something well she would give a thumbs up in my view which was really helpful to know when I was doing something right especially if I had made a mistake on it before so I could know I was improving. Overall, it was a pleasant experience and I was happy to get such a helpful instructor.

I am an experienced driver but new to the UK. I had to take the driving test since my driving license is not accepted here. Reached out to Chelsea driving school to get an instructor. I was first assigned to a driver but was not happy with the communication. The team immediately put me in touch with Derek and it was the best thing ever. He accommodated to my needs and was up to the challenge to change old bad behaviours. He was thorough, repeats things as much as needed, and is very patient. I felt sometimes he was a bit tough but because he takes safety on the road very seriously and I appreciated it. I wanted to be a safe driver.I took the test and passed with only 2 minor faults. I am so grateful for Derek and I highly recommend him to anyone.And well done Chelsea Driving School for turning my initial negative experience into a very positive one.

I have a UK driving license but needed a refresher after not driving for a few years. Tariq helped me rebuild my confidence with bespoke lessons tailored to what I needed to brush up on. I have become a safer and more strategic driver. I wish he had been my instructor when I learned to drive to get my license. Thank you, Tariq!

I had Leon as my instructor from Chelsea Driving School and I passed on my first try thanks to Leon 🎉🎉🎉. His attitude, calmness, helpful summaries and insightful knowledge merge together to form the perfect driving instructor! I had 1 previous driving instructor who pales in comparison and so I heavily recommend choosing Leon. Thank you Leon! 🥳
