What worked for them
In the reviewer's own words: "I recently passed my driving test in first attempt and practised lessons with Afzal sir from learn & drive". The reviewer describes Afzal as patient, professional and an excellent instructor, and the lessons as well-structured, covering everything from basic manoeuvres to complex driving situations. The reviewer says they are now a confident and safe driver thanks to Afzal. The review does not say which part of the preparation helped most, and none is claimed here.
Lesson for other learners
- A pass follows preparation: take the test only when your instructor agrees you are ready.
- Structured lessons that build from basic manoeuvres to complex situations leave a learner ready for test day, not just for the test route.
- Trust your instructor's judgement on readiness — a pass follows preparation, not rushing.
- Book only through the official GOV.UK driving test booking service, and only when your instructor agrees you are ready.
