I am very happy with the driving lessons that helped me a lot to pass my driving test the first time. I’ll definitely recommend it to friends and family who want to get their license. thank you so much

I loved using Tooting driving school especially shakil he was amazing was always telling me my wrongs and made me improve massively also had some laughs and now I’ve finally passed it was a nice time while it lasted so I would like to thank shakil

Best teacher!!

Shakil is an amazing instructor! Very patient, explains everything in detail and helps you learn how to correct your mistakes and get better with every lesson. I would recommend him to anyone who wants to pass first time.

Shakil did well to direct to right way to approach driving in the UK and sharpen my evaluation of my environment to be test ready. Thanks

Great instructor. I couldn’t recommend anyone better than Shakil!

Corrects you when you make a mistake and purposely takes you on the more difficult bits of the driving test area, but helps and guides you through it! This massively helped with my confidence and helped me to pass first time with only two minors!! Thanks brother all the best.

Very friendly insructer highly recommended.

Shakil is an amazing driving instructor. Highly recommend Shakil to anyone willing to get their drivers license.

Highly recommend Mr Shakil, really calm and respectful, keeps instructions clear whilst driving, always tells you know what your doing well and what you need to improve on after each lesson, not a bad word to say about him, great instructor.

Honestly the best driving instructor out there, had a previous instructor and failed a test, and got recommended here, he helped me grow my confidence quickly and taught stuff to can’t take away after, couldn’t recommended enough

Thank you so much to Shakil. He is the BEST driving instructor ever. With his help and his patience and amazing teaching skills, I was able to pass 1st time with only two minors. I couldn’t have done it without him. Highly recommend booking with him!!

Shakil was a great instructor. Very friendly and informative. Teaches you everything you need to know in order to be safe and feel confident on the road.

Shakil was a great instructor. Helped me stay calm and in control. Would recommend!!

Great service 2nd time passing within 3 days

Shak is an extremely committed instructor. I was very nervous on many of our lessons together and lacked a lot of confidence. He was very patient and always gave helpful guidance and plenty of laughs along the way. I was passed my test first time and would highly recommend Shak to anyone learning to drive.

I wanted to say a big thank you to Mohammad Shofiqu for his amazing assistance and patience during our driving lessons. His teaching style is excellent, making the learning process both fun and effective. Mohammad’s calm demeanor and clear instructions really helped me gain confidence behind the wheel. I truly appreciate his dedication and support. Highly recommended!!!!

Shakil was a very good instructor – was proper patient with me and got me to pass first time.

Really grateful to him

Passed my driving test first time thanks to Shakil! He’s been a fantastic instructor, I was super nervous to start driving but Shakil’s patience, knowledge and teaching skills helped me grow in confidence and learn to enjoy driving. Really glad to have learned with tooting driving school recommend to anyone hoping to learn to drive !!

Shakil was my second instructor who taught me after I failed my first attempt for my practical test. I’m really thankful for his effort to correct my mistakes especially on my mindset on driving

I was lucky to meet Shakil. He is a calm, friendly and knowledgeable instructor. We managed the impossible – to remove the influence of my many years of experience on European roads and clearly focus on British streets and driving culture! The result was a successful pass with only two minor faults…. But really, on the third try only 😜

Shakil was my driving instructor. He did an absolute amazing job and calming my nerves all the way up until test day. I was very pleased with my time with Shakil and how vigilant he was in leaving no room for mistakes and how keen he was on helping me pass ready to answer any questions I had on hand with clarity and examples as I am a visual learner which is something he noticed and adhered to. I passed with only 2 minors thanks to his attentiveness and I want to thank TDS for employing such good driving instructors. Thanks once again to Shakil, I highly recommend him!!!

i wouldn’t have done this without tooting driving school they helped me a lot through hard times and im pleased with them for helping me pass alhamdulilah

Shakil is an amazingly excellent, instructor, very patient and motivational. One of the best with so much experience. He brings best driving skills hidden inside you. I highly recommend Tooting Driving School

Shakil was a really helpful instructor & helped me pass first time

Fantastic teaching and instructor.

Shaqil is an AMAZING instructor, he meticulously instructs whilst correcting ensuring that small mistakes stick in your head so that you do not make them again. His approach is calm, helping you with nervousness or doubt. I cannot thank him enough I passed my test today with only 3 minors. If you are looking for someone that pays attention to the smallest details, whilst ensuring you are confident in every aspect of your driving you are at the right place. Thank you again Shaqil !!!

Shakil is an amazing instructor!

I just to thank you brother Mohamed for been teaching me so well and being so patient with me. I highly recommend this driving school. You are the best driving instructor that I have been with.

Good learning experience and good technique how to drive.

I was v.good . I cleared me test 1st time.

I recommend you to learn driving with Shakil then you know you will pass on you first exam like me

After just a few months driving with Shakil, I passed my test first time today. An easy recommendation for anyone aiming to drive with confidence. Thanks!

I had 5 different instructors while I was learning to drive and none of them were quite as good as Shakil from Tooting Driving School.

In my first lesson with him, I was a bit worried at how much he was having to comment and correct my driving, but I soon came to realise that this is because he truly cares about whether you will be driving safely and correctly once you pass. He gave lots of encouragement when I was doing well and identified all the areas in which I was lacking and needed to improve. Over time, I came to realise just how many areas I wasn’t confident in thanks to Shakil and I fixed them up and managed to pass my test!

Many thanks to Shakil, to whom I will always be thankful!

I would like to thank Mr. Shakil, he was a professional and patient driving instructor, always pushing you to achieve your goal. I recommend this school to those who want to learn driving

Hi I just wanted to say that shakil is a brilliant instructor very easy going straight to the point and will explain things in details so that you will fully understand how driving work and the things that you should improve on he will make you feel really at ease and knows where to push you to improve your driving skills I would highly recommend it.well experienced and a good attitude.

Thank you Shakil, genuinely an amazing instructor. Patient, clear and reliable. Having Shakil to pinpoint my weaknesses got me confident and ready for my test. Really recommend Shakil for anyone who wants to pass their test and feel ready to drive on your own.

The instructions from the instructor was very fruitful for me

The best driving instructor, he had a lot of faith in me. Very patient. Thank you so much.

I had this driving experience for while with Mr Shakil, where we did maybe 60 hours, which made me well skilled in driving manual car. I would like to say sometimes it can be really hard to fit in the instructors standart driving as its very high, so it can be harsh but definitely worth it. The car which we drove is Peugeot 208 , its pretty modern and well kept. Generally car drives itself and driver needs only to control/maintain its motion. Over all I can say they do nice job in Tooting driving school.

I passed My driving test first time Tooting Driving School the best one thank you so much.

The best driving instructor I have ever had I have passed first time with only a small amount of faults he made me feel so confident and brave to go to my test I couldn’t of done it with anyone else thank you so much shakil

He will cover all areas of driving and will give you relevant feedback which will help you to pass the test and become a good driver overall. Thank you so much for all your support and time!

I cannot recommend recommend Shakil enough. He has been with me throughout my time learning and without him I would not have had the confidence to pass my driving test first try. He is very patient and provides good feedback on the mistakes I make and how to correct them. He also does not sugar coat things, pointing out even the smallest errors, ensuring that I drove safely and with full awareness of what I was doing.

Today I have passed my driving test for the first time

Shakil was a great instructor. Helped me pass first time and was recommended by my mate who was taught by him and also passed first time.

After a few years of on an off driving lessons with different instructors, Shakil helped me pass my test. He is a top guy who teaches you not just to pass your test but also to be a great driver in general. I would recommend him to anyone looking to learn how to drive. Thanks Shakil for all your help!

Shakil from Tooting Driving School was excellent.

He is really professional and has a wealth of knowledge and experience.

Great learning experience with Mohamed. He helped me build up skills and confidence all to way to passing my test today. Very patient and supportive instructor, I highly recommend.

Passed first time , really grew in my confidence over time

Shakil was really amazing. Helped me pass with just a few hours of lessons and was able to identify all of my main faults and work on them.

Passed first time thanks to Shakil. Very helpful and informative lessons.

Had a great experience with Shakil. Easy to booked sessions via WhatsApp. Shakil insists on a high standard for driving and does a great job of putting his pupils at ease throughout the process. I was an experienced driver from the States and he was able to patiently focus on breaking all my bad habits (i.e looking the wrong way, shifting gears and the dreaded roundabouts). Would recommend Shakil to anyone looking to improve their driving.

Brilliant instructor, great lessons, passing a driving test has never been so easy!

Shakil was the best help i could ask for, i had abit of short notice when my test was due, but he mamanged to stay calm and correct my mistakes and teach me in such little time, very grateful to have him as an instructor

I had a great experience and learnt so much, 100% would recommend Tooting driving school!

Amazing teacher, he doesnt just show you how to drive safely but also he will highlight issues that are wrong with your driving allowing you to improve them

I have passed from 1st attempt in Bromley! Used to have awful habits (coming from non-EU country had to adapt and learn on UK side almost from scratch) and Shakil instructor managed to fix all those unconscious mistakes that I was doing! If you choose him, you will not regret! Be ready to listen to his feedback and take his advices seriously – trust me you have high chances to pass it from your first try (if you follow what he says)! Amazing style of teaching – he will make you think every time the basic question “WHY?/Why you did it this way?” and then you will receive a very detailed explanation what you have done incorrectly (you will also remember what you don’t have to do next time).

THANK YOU Shakil for not giving up on me 🙂 and thanks a lot for your patience! Sometimes I was thinking that back in the days you were preparing Formula 1 drivers 🙂

Shakil from Tooting Driving School was excellent.

He was extremely accomodating and helped me booking in lessons for a last minute driving test.

He is really professional and has a wealth of knowledge and experience.

I highly recommend using TDS.

I came to Shakil as an emergency instructor, as my previous instructor dropped out a couple weeks before my test. Within FOUR lessons he managed to correct a year worth of bad habits and guarantee a 1st time pass. Highly recommend this instructor!

Shakil was my instructor and he was so good l, strict but a good strict helped me perfect my driving and in the end I passed.

Very good instructor, very easy to learn how to drive safely. His experience becomes apparent in his teaching as he walks you through step by step.

Highly recommended!

I passed my first time all thanks to Shakil! I had an instructor before who didn’t really believe in me and who I didn’t feel confident and comfortable with but Shakil put in hard work and always went through the mistakes i made, and made sure i understood everything fully. I really really recommend Shakil honestly big difference from someone who had 2 instructors.

It is really tough to find an honest and straight forward instructor in London. You need a one who you can trust without any doubt. I am sure that Shakil is that instructor who you need. After few lessons with Shakil you will be sure that he is the MASTER of the roads and you will feel that he is one of those who had put all roads rules, that is why his students will never make any mistake as long as they listen to his instructions. Today I have passed my test first time after just 14 lesson with Shakil and I had not any experience before. He is an exceptional instructor and has a strict teaching way of the roads rules which makes you pass easily.

I really appreciate every single lesson I have done with you Shakil.

Thank you so much.

Best wishes.

I had a 10 hour refresher set of lessons with Shakil after a long break from driving with a previous instructor, and with his support I came out the other side a more confident and safer driver than I’ve ever been, and passed my driving test. I appreciated his timeliness, flexibility with my tight schedule for getting the lessons in, and the tips that I hope to carry forward in my driving career

Best driving instructor made me pass in 6 lessons. Very respectful and productive. He tells you all your mistakes and makes you learn from it, which then you won’t repeat again. Long story short I passed in 6 lessons that’s enough said.

Shakil is a great instructor with lots of experience. I passed my test in my first attempt. Very pleased with his professionalism, level of knowledge and patience. I would highly recommend Tooting Driving School.

Despite already having a licence from a different country, I was a very nervous student. I hadn’t driven in years when I started taking lessons with Shakil. He helped me regain my confidence and shared tips for things to keep in mind during the exam. Great instructor, fair prices and trustworthy.

Shakil it was a pleasure being taught by you, you made me feel comfortable and was always polite and never gave up on me. I would like to say big thanks to you. all the best

Couldn’t be more genuine when I say this man is a fantastic instructor. He’s well balanced and very knowledgeable, ultimately facilitating a smooth pass with his advisory.

Highly recommended. Shakil is an amazing instructor who was polite, punctual, professional and so patient. He made me feel very comfortable during the classes. I passed my exam in FIRST time.

Very big THANKS for everything that you have done for me.

Fore me it was a great experience with Shakil. I really felt that his comments are genuine when he explains why are we doing it like that. It’s not like ‘don’t do that… don’t do this..’. He clearly explains what to do in situations and also explains why we are doing it. That made a big difference in my driving ethics. He is good! I recommend.

Shakil was a brilliant instructor, loads of patience with me, lots of encouragement given for a learner driver in London, and he would only accept the best attempts from me. I highly recommend The Driving School.

Shakil is an amazing instructor, he taught me well and was extremely patient. His experience and knowledge are evident in his teaching style and with hard work it is certain that any student, inherently good at driving or not will pass.
