What Our Students Say About Usman Qadir

A very good driving school, my driving instructor Usman helped me progress my driving and was patient in the learning process and time it took me to understand things and to pass my test, I would highly recommend 1st Driving School if you are learning how to drive!

My instructor doesn't waste time and he doesn't delay the time for lessons. He is patient and calm when giving lessons, this has helped me to pass my driving test.

We cannot thank Mr Usman enough for his patience, professionalism, and encouragement throughout my son’s driving journey. As my son is autistic, passing his driving test is a very special achievement for our family. Usman took the time to understand how my son learns, explained everything clearly, and helped him build confidence behind the wheel. He was always calm, supportive, and encouraging, making every lesson a positive experience. Thanks to Mr Usman’s excellent teaching, my son passed his driving test, and we couldn’t be prouder. We are truly grateful for the care, dedication, and belief he showed in my son. I would highly recommend Mr Usman to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, patient, and outstanding driving instructor. Thank you once again, Usman, for helping my son achieve this important milestone. We will always be grateful.

My driving instructor was Usman Qadir. I would highly recommend him as he is a highly knowledgeable and patient driving instructor. He clearly explained major and minor faults along with any misconceptions I had going into the test. After taking a few refresher lessons with him where he introduced the concept of "commentary driving", I passed with only 4 minor faults.

My learning experience with Usman Qadir was smooth. At the beginning, I wasn't confident, but he taught me how to have composure and be a vigilant driver. Usman is meticulous in his teaching and insists on important points that will make you a safe driver. Today, I just passed my driving test with zero faults! The driving examiner was even surprised!

I had lessons with Usman (automatic) and he helped me pass my driving test first time. The lessons were enjoyable and well structured. I was nervous about driving, but he helped me to build confidence. I highly recommend taking lessons with him for anybody who is looking for a reliable and friendly instructor.

Usman Qadir has been a wonderful instructor. He came to my rescue at the most difficult time in my driving journey. I passed on my first attempt with ZERO fault. Thank you indeed!

I had an excellent experience learning to drive with Usman Qadir. He is incredibly attentive and patient, always taking the time to explain things clearly and in a way that really makes sense. His use of visual aids was especially helpful and made even the more complex situations much easier to understand. I struggled with anxiety around roundabouts, but Usman taught me practical techniques and built my confidence step by step until I felt completely in control. Thanks to his calm approach, encouragement, and structured lessons, I was able to pass my driving test first time with no major or minor faults at all. He is professional, reliable, and genuinely cares about his students’ progress. Lessons were always well-organised, supportive, and tailored to my needs. I couldn’t have asked for a better instructor and would highly recommend both him and the driving school to anyone looking to learn.

I passed my test first time, thanks to my instructor Usman Qadir. He was an excellent instructor, had great knowledge of the test area, and was patient and encouraging when I made mistakes.
