I had refresher courses with Shafiq, they helped a lot with gaining confidence to get back on the road. Shafiq was friendly, patient and a good teacher and I would definitely recommend him.
I texted MJ driving school about availability for refresher lessons. They immediately responded with prices and availability and offered to book me an initial lesson. I had a lesson with Shafiq, who was a very friendly and relaxed guy, and a patient teacher. I've had lessons over the last 2 months with him, and have gained the confidence to begin driving again. I'd definitely recommend Shafiq as an instructor.
Just finished refresher lessons with Shafiq, now feel confident to get on the roads independently. Lessons were well structured and enjoyable.
Decent driving school. Helped me pass first time.
Finished my refresher driving lessons today with Shafiq and now feel very confident to drive independently. The lessons were well structured and provided me with everything I needed practice on, highly recommend.
Passed my test after just 7 lessons thanks to Fish. Fish is the best instructor I have learned with and taught me everything in the best way possible. Passed first time with only 3 minors couldn't fault his teaching methods
I passed this afternoon first time with Pav! Pav is an amazing instructor - he explains everything so well and has so much patience and knowledge, a true driving expert! I had two instructors before that let me down but Pav saved the day and was excellent at preparing me for the test. Fully recommend him.
I began taking lessons in November 2021, and passed my test today first time in Wakefield thanks to Daryl! The progress I saw with him over the course of 6 months was astounding, so a big BIG thank you to Daryl!

He is a fantastic instructor - always so patient, thoroughly explained everything (verbally + with visual aids), and would identify and correct any areas that needed improvement immediately which was immensely helpful in becoming a safe driver. He really helped to build my confidence. The lessons themselves were incredibly affordable, super friendly and always professional. I would definitely recommend Daryl - thanks a million!!
I passed my test today with PAV an absolute brilliant instructer guided me through key points to pass my test was very helpful highly recommended thank you PAV.
Pav is an amazing driving instructor! He doesn't just make sure you're passable, he makes sure you're going to survive on the roads! He is strict and that's a good thing because you will be an excellent driver by the end. Thanks for everything Pav!
I passed my test today and had Shafiq as my driving instructor who prepared me well. He was very professional in his teaching throughout all my lessons and very negotiable to lesson times that best suited my schedule. He also kept the car clean and took all the precautions necessary during the times of COVID restriction. I would highly recommend him as he was very patient and helped me to reach a confident driving standard.
Thank you Shafiq
My driving instructor was PAV. He made me feel calm and confident throughout my lessons and when it came time for my test, despite my nerves, he filled me with the confidence that I could pass, nothing to worry about. Passed first time with 2 minors and I’m chuffed.
I've not had the best experience with driving instructors in Leeds, so I was lucky to finally get a great one like Shafiq. He's patient, thorough, consistent and helped me to pass first time with only 4 minors! Very pleased and would definitely recommend him to friends and family
Shafiq provided a highly professional and customised experience for driving lessons. The car was maintained to a high standard, and Shafiq ensured excellent COVID-19 safety throughout my driving lessons from September 2021 to February 2022 when I passed on my first attempt at the UK practical driving test for a manual transmission car.

Shafiq's driving lessons were consistently well planned and tailored to specific aspects for improvement in my driving practice, while also ensuring thorough coverage of all components of the test including driving through test areas, show me/tell me questions, and all manoeuvres. Shafiq has precisely honed reference points to work through manoeuvres with confidence and composure. Throughout, Shafiq's feedback is positive while attentive to the detail needed for a pass on the practical test. Shafiq was punctual and always in good communication between lessons and created a friendly and cordial environment for learning during driving lessons.
A big thank you to Arshed for helping me pass at Harehills test centre. I had several previous driving instructors but Arshed was the best one. Arshed was the only one I had who kept a written file and would do a short brief before and after each lesson. This kept us organised and efficient with valuable lesson time. I'd had instructors before who would completely forget what we worked on in the previous lessons.

Arshed was also very patient and never lost his cool, which I'd also experienced with other instructors. His lessons were the least stressful for me, and I saw the most progress in my driving with him.

If you are reading this, I highly recommend learning with him. Hopefully your learning experience will be as positive as mine.
Passed today first time with Pav! Great lessons, can't to wait to get driving some more.
Passed my test on the first time, very happy with my results. Affordable and made fun by pav I would totally keep learning with them if I needed to. And will recommend to anyone.
I started lessons with Pav having driven a fair bit before. He was great at finding my level and making sure I was ironing out any faults. On the day of my test he made sure I was calm and wasn't overthinking anything. He was massively helpful in getting me to pass first time. Would recommend him to anyone.
Bob was my instructor. I had about 16 hours of driving lessons with bob and passed first time with no minors. He's a great instructor and has amazing teaching methods. Would highly recommend him. Thank you again Bob for helping me pass.
I would like to thank Pav for polishing up my driving skills to pass my test yesterday. He was very accommodating and made sure that we could fit in enough lessons prior to my test. In particular I struggled taking roundabouts and thanks to Pav's patience and thorough explanations about lane discipline I no longer have this issue. I would definitely recommend him to anyone learning to drive as he gave me a lot of great advice which has helped me feel confident on the road!
Bob was my intsructor. I only had 10 hours of lessons and passed first try with one minor. I can’t ask for much more than that!
I’ve been having lessons with Pav and I have learned so much from him and I’ve managed to pass my test today I couldn’t recommend him enough to be your instructor!
Massive thank you to Pav! I passed my test in Horsforth on 10/11/21. I am 26 years old and I was worried that passing my driving test wasn't on the cards for me! Pav was really accommodating and patient, I work full time and he was able to facilitate mid-week evening lessons and weekend lessons which fit well around my 9-5 work commitments. He was always punctual and always willing to take the extra time to explain key concepts, both verbally and with the use of diagrams/whiteboards etc. I would really recommend him, thanks again Pav!
I managed to pass my test thanks to Bob! He's a brilliant instructor, dead easy to get along with and has a great teaching method. Couldn't recommend him enough.
Would highly recommend Arshed who has been such patient and supportive instructor. It’s been a year long endeavour thanks to Covid but he’s always kept me motivated and made it as fun as he could.
Thanks again for getting me passed :).
I passed this morning first time with 3 minor faults thanks to an excellent instructor Shafiq
It was a long journey due to the pandemic but well worth it!
Shafiq took over my lessons as I was having a bad experience with another school, not turning up on time, not able to accommodate my needs and didnt follow COVID guidelines. Shafiq was the complete opposite and his explanations of manoeuvre's was done with respect and calmness, I struggled with a couple of them but Shafiq explained it in different ways till it finally clicked. He helped me with confidence building, and refine my driving to pass first time. Would definitely reccommend!
Thank you!

Thank you!
I’d like to say a massive thanks to MJ Driving School and my instructor, Pav, for the past several months of tuition to get me my pass in Horsforth today. Pav gave me lots of great hints and tips right up to the day of the test to make sure I was in the best position to pass. I would definitely recommend these guys to anyone else looking to start learning.
Cheers,
Chris.
I passed in harehills this week all thanks to Arshed. He was were really helpful, calm and patient and always believed I could do it even more than myself sometimes!
Thankyou!
I'd just like to express my gratitude to Pete for the great teaching he has provided me over the last few months, that has allowed me to pass my practical test on the first time of asking. The advice he gave in lessons was always clear and allowed me to improve my driving ability at a rapid pace. I'll certainly recommend that other learner drivers go to him for lessons, as he has been much better than previous instructors I've had.

I was well prepared for today's test at Horsforth and it went as well as I could have hoped for- and I thank Pete greatly for that.

All the best,
Conor O'Donnell
Bob was my instructor and was great! I started off as a nervous driver but he helped me to overcome this. He was always on time and very professional. Highly recommend Bob!
Bob was my instructor and was brill! Very professional and always on time for lessons, started off a nervous driver and a bit cautious but he helped me overcome this. If you’re wanting to pass first time, Bob is definitely the man!
Big shout out to Shafiq! He really restored my confidence in driving after a 9 year period of not driving at all. I learnt more doing a couple of refresher lessons than Shafiq than I did after 8 lessons with a previous instructor. Thanks so much, can’t recommend enough!
Bob was a fantastic driving instructor who helped me to pass first time. He was also very professional arriving on time and helped keep me calm throughout the whole driving experience. I can’t recommend him enough to anyone with no or previous experience. Thanks a lot Bob!
After two unsuccessful driving tests with another driving school I switched to MJ Driving School. I had Shafiq as my instructor who was very calm and professional which helped a lot as most of my issues were the result of nerves. He helped me improve both my driving skill and confidence. He was very helpful with organising lessons around my work. COVID guidelines were followed throughout, the car was kept clean and was well maintained.

As a result of this my driving ability massively improved and I am pleased to say that I passed on my third attempt. I would definitely recommend, thanks Shafiq!
I passed my practical driving test today for the first time thanks to the help of Bob. He was always very clear with instructions and helped keep me calm throughout the whole learning experience. I can’t recommend him enough, he was very professional and always on time for lessons. If you’re struggling to pass or want to pass first time, Bob is the man you’re looking for.
My instructor was Shafiq and I happily passed today! He has been with me the whole way and I couldn't of asked for a better instructor. He was patient and very reliable. He always made me feel at ease and comfortable in lessons. He taught me so much about the road and how to be the best driver I can be. I will always be thankful for having the best instructor I could off asked for! His advice and tips on driving will stick with me for the rest of my life. Thank you again, I will forever be grateful to you!
I was very fortunate to have Shafiq as my instructor, he taught me through my course of lessons for me to pass first time on my test. He was very professional throughout and was very accommodating with selecting the dates and times that suited me. I also did my lessons in and out of the lockdown, the car was kept clean and all COVID guidelines were followed making it a safe learning environment. I appreciate all your hard work, thank you very much, Keanan.
Passed my test today and my driving instructor Pav prepared me well for this. Not only did I feel confident and prepared going into the test, but he helped me be a better driver overall. I've heard of experiences with instructors where they can be very harsh, Pav was the complete opposite of this. He helped build my confidence, gave me feedback in a relaxed and respectful way and I really felt comfortable learning to drive from him. Couldn't recommend him enough, an excellent teacher and an amazing person!
Zam is a brilliant & super professional driving instructor, very patient and relaxed. Lessons felt comfortable and I was able to progress at my own pace. Zam helped me to pass my test for the first time and has made me a really confident driver.
Despite having to stop and start lessons continually because of the Covid-19 national lockdown, I made great progress and he really went above and beyond to help me calm down and be confident for my test!
I passed my test easily on the first attempt (without any notes) after driving lessons With Zam.
I highly recommend him! Thank you so much, Zam!
I passed my driving test on Friday with no minors all thanks to Zam! During our sessions he was always calm, positive and delivered clear feedback. I've had a US license for 15+ years but was hesitant to drive in the UK. Now I'm ready to drive on my own and am a more confident driver than I was before. His approach to parallel parking is excellent and made it so much easier. I can't reccomend him enough!!
I was taught by Imran of MJ driving, and after going through many different driving instructors in other schools, I promise Imran is the best of the best!
I passed my test first time with only 5 minors after coming to Imran terrified of driving and being on the road
If you are looking for the friendliest of driving instructors, that will take care of you, build your confidence and really teach you how to drive - Imran is your man and I’m sure the other instructors at MJ Driving are awesome too!
Thank you so much Imran!
I passed my practical test this morning and it was my first attempt. I received 4 minors. My Instructor was Ben and I really recommend learning with him. He put me at ease and was patient and friendly throughout. I started in September and have passed within a year. He is flexible and accommodating and it makes a difference when you can relax and laugh whilst learning. Thank you Ben! 🙂🚗
I had my lessons under Shafiq and he was a big reason why I passed (with 0 faults). He was great- extremely enthusiastic, friendly, professional and definitely the best driving instructor I’ve had.

I had failed twice before; before I had lessons with Shafiq I hadn’t drove for 2 years. In around 6 hours Shafiq made me a confident driver- he instantly recognised where I had gone wrong instantly in previous tests (without seeing what I failed on), showed me how I could correct them and remained positive throughout. On a lesson he took me round exactly the same test route I went on the day before my test- it was basically identical to the actual test I had the day after.

I would extremely recommend Shafiq to any learner driver because he is experienced, calm and positive. His work really shows in how much I developed as a driver in such a little length of time. Not only did he show me how to pass but I know I will definitely continue to use all of his tips in the future when driving (especially for manoeuvres).
Had my lessons with pav and he helped my progress to the point where I passed first time with 0 faults, highly recommend him
I've undertaken 12 hours in the last week under Shafiq. Shafiq has been fantastic and has exceeded my expectation of what a a driving instructor would be like. He; as mentioned in other reviews, is very calm and easy to work with.
I'd certainly recommend Shafiq to anyone!
I have just passed my test today, with the help of Pav. He has been so patient and really has coached me to be the best I can. Thank you so much! Will definitely no doubt about it be recommending this driving school and Pav to any of my friends and new learners!! 😁
I had Shafiq as my instructor. I really enjoyed my driving experience with him. He always came on time, he keeps his car clean and well maintained and his manner was always calm,
amiable and approachable. I was comfortable learning with him and had confidence that what he was teaching would make my driving standard high. This was proven when I passed my practical driving test with only two minors. Thank you Shafiq for such a wonderful experience!
I started my first driving lesson with Shafiq back in April feeling very nervous having never driven a car before, however, Shafiq gave me very clear instructions and calmed me down as he himself was calm. As the lesson went on, I become more and more comfortable with driving to the point where my driving lessons became my relaxation time from doing university assignments and he was always understanding of that, never pushing me to do more lessons when it didn't suit me. Also, he is very good at timekeeping and the car is clean and covid safe, I would highly recommend Shafiq if you are a beginner learner, a huge thank you for giving me confidence behind the wheel!!
Hurray, I passed my driving test in first attempt with 5 minor faults. All credits go to my driving instructor Mr. Lodhi, I strictly followed his guidelines which made me pass in a short span. I would really recommend Lodhi who is more tolerant and tries to explain the missteps to the core. Finally, I should really appreciate him on the safety measures followed during this pandemic.
