Holborn driving school, is the best of the best when it comes to learning how to drive my instructor Taj was amazing, we went at my pace and within no time at all I was up to speed and ready to take my test. I passed first time with 2 minors, Taj is by far the best instructor I have ever come across, I would not have passed without his patience, and years of experience. Thank you Holborn driving school! you are worth every penny! Taj you are a legend, thanks again

Today I passed my driving test, and it is mostly thanks to the superior teaching skills of Richard! Having had 30 hours of driving, not only is his teaching excellent, but I will miss his humour and his wonderful stories. I cannot rate highly enough, I would recommend this school (which I found cheaper than places outside of London) to everyone and especially Richard as a wise, funny, and encouraging instructor. Thank you Holborn!

Couldn't have been better! Rob is a reliable, punctual, patient and thorough driving instructor. I felt very well prepared for my test and for driving beyond. I didn't hold out much hope for enjoying driving before I began, but I really did enjoy my lessons. Thanks, Rob!

Extremely professional driving school and service - in particular my instructor Taj for automatic lessons. He’s a fantastic instructor who has given me a lot of confidence as a driver and on the road - no complaints.

“I came across Holborn Driving School as my office was nearby and I was impressed by all the good reviews. My instructor had great communication skills. He made sure to explain things in a simplistic and calm manner. He advised on having 2hrs lessons per week consistently. After roughly 37-40 hrs of lessons, I passed first time! Thanks Rob!”

“A HUGE HUGE HUGE thank you to Taj from Holborn driving school! He is so professional, friendly and welcoming. He has so much patience and is calmling; and really helps to focus on the road and how to drive correctly. I’ve had a few manual instructors and automatic instructors and have to say Taj has been the best! Highly recommend!”
