Had an amazing instructor George who took me from beginner to pass first try! He was clear and precise in all his instructions, and he made sure that I made good progress each lesson. Would thoroughly recommend to anyone looking to learn in London.

I had an amazing experience learning to drive with Holborn Driving School. My instructor, Taj, was absolutely brilliant — patient, clear in his instructions, and always encouraging. He really helped build my confidence on the road and made every lesson enjoyable and productive by structuring lessons around what I needed.Thanks to his expert guidance, I passed my driving test with only 1 minor! I can’t thank Taj enough for his support and professionalism throughout the whole process. Would definitely recommend!

Passed first time after taking lessons with Roberto. He knows his stuff, and good company too! Not many people I'd rather be stuck in a car with for two hours. If you're wondering where to get your lessons, this is the spot.

Great experience. Big thanks to Roberto for being an amazing instructor. Everyone there was very helpful, and the lessons, in my opinion, are very well targeted to the needs of the students.I passed after about 3 and a half months of lessons and couldn't have asked for a better experience. I 100% recommend this driving school to anyone searching for a place to learn to drive.

I passed my practical test this week with zero minors, thanks to Holborn Driving School and especially Kemal, my instructor. He gave clear, consistent, and focused training that really helped me feel confident and ready for the test. I highly recommend Kemal and the school if you're looking to pass first time!

Thanks to George for teaching me to drive in the UK. We went through six months of lessons which was invaluable for me and I was able to pass my test first time!He helped me through each different section of the UK licence exam, working up from left/right turns through dual carriage ways and roundabouts. Thank you again to Holborn Driving School!

When I applied for the driving school the instructor I was assigned took me for two lessons and I noticed that he was making me repeat a lot of things instead of adding new additional content. I asked him after 2 weeks how many lessons he thought I would be ideal before having a driving test and he responded that at least 40 hours of lessons. I decided to stop the lessons and go to another academy in where I did 20 hours and pass the first time. I am not gonna say that the instructor or teaching was bad but holding pupils just for monetary advantage and making people pay more than they should cannot be a business priority.

Passed first time, Shefi was my instructor - he is absolutely brilliant. Very calm and understanding, he is incredible at his job but more importantly a very lovely man. I ended up taking my test in Richard's car after 2 lessons with him and he is just as good at his job and again also a lovely man. This shows regardless of who your instructor is you will get a great teacher and a great person to not only learn from but also be able to get on and have a laugh with which is just as important in my eyes.

Passed first time with Kemal, only three minors! A real testament to his (and the school's) great teaching, especially in central London!

I've been taking lessons with Elisio for several months. We have progressed from me panicking and scared of every changing road condition to passing today the test at the very first attempt with two minors.I have literally thought that I will never be able to drive after having bad experiences with instructors from other schools. But Elisio was patient, calm, knowledgable, patient, smart, gentle, understanding, meticulous to sharing all the details I needed to know before the exam, patient and kind. He supported me through this journey like no other person has, and made me believe that I can do it - and somehow I DID! Thank you so much!!!

I can’t thank Holborn school of motoring enough. I passed today with Richard who has been amazing. Anyone who gets Richard as their instructor is very lucky.. I will miss him dearly. G G in the office has always been so kind and friendly and let’s not forget Rob who’s encouragement and advice was invaluable. Thank you all so much I mean that from the bottom of my ❤️

Taj from Holborn School of Motoring is an excellent instructor with decades of experience. He is super patient, has good tips on memorizing some driving skills and knows the exact test routes. Thanks Taj!

I couldn't have passed my test without Taj - he is always patient, kind, supportive - an all round amazing teacher. He truly is the best instructor I have ever had. Before I started learning with Taj I had had real difficulty passing my driving tests, but then after starting with Taj I got that pass! He really helped me overcome my nerves and make me a confident driver. He is a superb instructor and a lovely human. I would wholeheartedly recommend Taj and the Holborn Driving School.

I passed first time in manual thanks to my instructor Kemal. Because of all my lessons with him I was able to pass my test with confidence. I highly recommend Holborn driving school to anyone wanting to get their license.

Roberto and Elisio are both excellent teachers. Starting lessons again after a few years' break, I felt very supported and gained my confidence back quickly. They are both extremely patient, kind and knowledgeable. I really enjoyed my lessons with them both and highly recommend this driving school as their instructors really are outstanding!
