I recently paid for a course of 10 hours with Ali. I do not think he is a good fit for a complete beginner. I never felt like he was particularly concerned with my progress, building a relationship with me or indeed that he was prepared for our lessons. The lessons were repetitive and made no allowance for the fact I was struggling.

Guys Ali is the man. I’m not a naturally gifted driver and wasn’t very hopeful about passing but Ali is extremely patient, trains you so you are actually a competent driver and gets you test ready at the right pace. I just passed with one minor only, but also feel ready to take on the road as a confident driver (vs. passing as a fluke and never driving again!). Plus he’s just a lovely guy, always on time and a joy to drive with. It’s a no brainer. Get driving with Ali!!!

I had the pleasure of working with Ali during the past two months to prepare for my UK driving test which I successfully passed on my first attempt. Ali is a passionate, patient, committed and disciplined professional. He was always on time for our appointments and did an excellent job of communicating during and after our classes. I am extremely pleased with his services and would highly recommend him. Whether you are a first time driver or an already experienced driver who needs to learn how to drive in UK (as was my case), he can help you prepare and pass the test.

Ali is a great instructor, on time for all lessons and an extremely patient and thorough teacher. He also has a brand new car with all the mod cons to help get you through the test. With Ali’s help I passed first time with only 1 minor. Thanks Ali!

Ali is a very patient and understanding teacher. He is very demanding which is really good for your test. I passed on the first attempt with 7 mistakes only. Ali has a 95% success rate on the first attempt and 100% overall. He will explain your mistakes calmly, he never gets angry and gives good confidence. I recommend him very much for any level.

Excellent driving instructor. He is very patient, very attentive and keeps giving good feedback. I passed first time with 2 minor faults only (took about 20 hours of classes), after having to get over many habits I had acquired from years of driving in India. Highly recommended!

I would Highly Recommend Ali as a brilliant driving instructor. Thoroughly enjoyed learning to drive with Ali. He's a very friendly and knowledgeable instructor whose professional and patient manner resulted in me passing the driving test with only 2 minors. He gave me lot's of Top Tip's & knowledge which helped me to gain the confidence required for the test and also for safe driving for a life. I will really miss his spying style of secretly noticing my driving mistakes throughout all the lesson's & complimentary nerve breaking funny chats between us which made my whole learning experience more enjoyable till I passed the test.
Thank you very much Ali.

Hi Ali - thanks a million for all your help.
As a mature learner with no prior experience of cars whatsoever I was very apprehensive about how to approach the lessons. Your calm manner and patient approach to my repeated mistakes helped me to build my confidence and eventually pass the test on my second attempt.
I would highly recommend you to anyone looking for professional, courteous instructor in the SE1 area.
All the best - thanks again. D

I would really recommend learning with Ali. He is a great instructor and you will be able to pass your practical in little time. He is the best instructor in South East London so make sure you contact him if you want to take some driving lessons. 11/10 I would review this. Yes 11! I have only taken lessons from Ali and I have passed first time on my practical test. That is how amazing he is. So ensure you check out his website!

Passed first time with Ali after 4 months of driving lessons. Ali is a great tutor - brilliant attention to detail, punctual, full of advice, patient, and knowledgeable. Not only were the lessons informative and helpful in making me pass with just 2 minors, they were also enjoyable - Ali has a great sense of humour. Highly recommended, doubt you will find better in this part of London at this price point.

I tried a few instructors in central London but struggled as a first time driver. I tried Ali and my confidence grew and grew. He is professional, organised, notes each lesson and what was covered. Above all he was patient with the speed of your progress. Highly recommended. Leigh

Highly professional, punctual and dedicated, Ali goes above and beyond the requirements for the practical test. Many of his teachings are useful whether you are driving a car, riding a bike or even as a pedestrian. With about 7 weeks of lessons I was able to pass the test on my first try, with no minor faults.

I passed my test first time with Ali. With London being my first experience of driving i felt really nervous going into my lessons, Ali was quick to rid me of these nerves. With every lesson came more confidence and it was all possible because of Ali's approach to driving. He was extremely knowledgeable of the road and never once lost his patience or showed any negative attitude. He taught me a strong discipline that i have adopted when tackling the road. I would recommend him 10x over to anybody. Thank you Ali and i will most certainly miss my lessons with you!

I put a very tough task in front of Ali: crash course in three lessons to get me from not having driven for 10 years to being able to drive in Italy less than a week later. He was incredibly patient and understood exactly how to train me for the task at hand. Ali you have my huge thanks. We are now in Italy and have been driving safely! Many thanks. Katia

Highly recommend. Ali was punctual, calm and professional at all times. I appreciated Ali's process, where he identified my weaker points and methodically addressed them. Throughout our lessons I felt that Ali was invested in my learning, teaching from basic 'best-practice' rather than rote test-targeting. Thanks Ali.

I took driving 16 hours of driving lessons from Ali and passed my test at Hither Green driving center with just 2 minor faults. Ali was very punctual and was available on the weekends for lessons, which was a huge help for me as I was working full-time. He also helped me overcome bad driving habits accumulated over years of driving in other countries. I am thrilled to have passed my test and would recommend Ali to anyone who is looking for a sure shot chance at passing.

Ali is a great instructor, I found him to be very supportive and encouraging when I found things difficult. He is very thorough and patient and made sure I covered everything I needed to drive confidently and pass my test first time.
When I passed my test the examiner told me he was very impressed and 'this is high class driving and that's what we are looking for!'
I have to credit Ali for this and would recommend him to anyone wanting the best.

With more than 20 years' driving in the US, I needed experience driving on the left, and no doubt, eliminating years of accumulated bad habits. Ali's training was just the thing. He quickly assessed my abilities and got to work correcting my bad habits. Result - passed the first time with zero faults. I highly recommend! The new Hyundai is great as well.

I would highly recommend Ali to anyone looking for a driving instructor. His professional, courteous and understanding manner are the qualities of the best driving instructors and teachers. Through driving with Ali, I realised that what makes him such a good instructor is his vast knowledge of the road, allowing me to pass the test (first time with one minor), and to feel completely confident in my ability as a driver. I hope you will enjoy learning to drive with Ali as much as I have - Thank you Ali!

I couldn't speak more highly of Ali and his lessons. It's not only because I passed my test flawlessly. It's about the environment that he creates during the lessons from day one. He's a gentleman: his calmness, friendliness, assertiveness and professionalism are what really stand out to make you focus and learn in a very smooth and definitive way. So, if you really want to pass your test, Ali's the right person. Thanks a lot Ali.

He is doing an illegal stuff. His car is not maintained properly and as a result the breaks of his car are not working properly. He is giving lessons to people with illegally obtained driving liecences (he brags about it). Such things are to be reported to the respective authorities. And it is not up ti him to decide when those people are ready to drive on their own. Fortunatelly I had just 2 lessons with him. I passed my exam after just 5 hours of practice with another driving school plus 20 hours of practice with my boyfriend .

Dear Yazmyn Farah,Thanks for your review.I felt compelled to respond back to you as your review is an attack on my personality.I treat all of my pupils with full respect and I love teaching my pupils how to drive safely.You had completed 8 lessons and purchased further a package of 11 lessons from me just prior this odd incident.So what happened then?On that day,while you were carrying out a reverse manoeuvre ,you kept steering in the wrong direction several times.I then asked what caused you to do that ,you did not come up with an answer to the problem and our further attempts to rectify it did not help.I then suggested,as I have experienced in the past with many of my pupils,whether any element of dyslexia involved in this problem.That was when you snapped and said 'it was an insult to say that and you are insulting me'.You then demanded I should take you back home and refund the money which I transfered your money immediately and although you wasted my 2 hours I did not charge you for that.
I feel like ,your ninja reaction was just a reflection of your personal frustration to your self over your failure But it is no good taking out on a devoted instructor and trying to degrade me with groundless allegations and calling me'the driver'
i am sure,you would have left me right after the first a few lessons you had taken if your allegations were right.
However,you are still welcome to do your training with me as I have built no hard feelings against you.Wishing you all the best.
