I passed my driving test today with 1 minor at Mitcham test centre. I had a great experience with Herne Hill Driving School. My instructor was Syed and he was great. He always explained my mistakes and had a warm energy which made it comfortable to drive with him. I would definitely recommend him to anyone wanting to learn manual!Posted on Google![]()

Mo is a fantastic driving instructor — incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely committed to helping his students pass their test. He taught me to drive from scratch and was always on the ball, making sure I learned from my mistakes, built my confidence, and improved with every lesson. He’s super reliable and always goes out of his way to do what he can for his students. You can tell he genuinely cares about helping you succeed and will do everything he can to give you the best chance of passing. He’s also extremely knowledgeable about cars and driving in general, so you always feel like you’re learning from someone who really knows his stuff. What I appreciated most was how understanding and adaptable he was to my ADHD, making little adjustments and reminding me of things when needed, which made such a difference to my learning experience. He was always patient, supportive, and encouraging! On top of all that, he’s super easy to talk to, really chilled, and has a great music selection, which makes lessons so much more enjoyable! I genuinely couldn’t have asked for a better instructor and would recommend Mo to anyone looking to learn to drive. Thanks for everything, Mo — and sorry for all the wrong turns hahah! 😂Posted on Google![]()

I passed my manual driving test last week at West Wickham and it was all thanks to Sophie!! I have had many driving instructors over the years and failed my previous tests at Mitcham with other instructors but Sophie was the most consistent and patient instructor I’ve had! She instilled confidence in my driving ability and set me up for success on my driving test. I could not have asked for a better driving instructor and she completely changed my mindset towards driving!! Thank you so much Sophie!!Posted on Google![]()

Charoun is one of the best driving instructors out there. I have had a few instructors and he stood out for his ability to figure out your weaknesses and build up your confidence substantially. Especially as a nervous learner, this was extremely helpful. Additionally, he was friendly, always on time and flexible with any lesson arrangements where needed. Highly recommend booking him - Thank you for helping me pass Charoun!
