Fantastic experience learning with Shazia Saddique. She was great at teaching me the basics and helped me pass in just two weeks. Make sure you check her out when looking for lessons.

Lovely man and even better instructor. Thank you Don!

Amazing, friendly and supportive driving instructor with a great sense of humour. Don was really reassuring. Thank you!!

A great man and teacher. Chad shows professionalism and a range of knowledge in every lesson making you feel at ease that you are in the best hands.

Shazia is the best instructor, hands down, and it has to be five stars. I couldn't have asked for more!

Andy is a brilliant instructor, knows what he's talking about and lessons are planned well. I learnt so much every week and passed after 23 hours!

Was so nervous to start driving but Paul instantly made me feel at ease and safe. Paul is so good at what he does and helped me learn so quickly. Can't thank you enough!

Don does his job so well and you can see he's so passionate about it. Amazing funny guy and he will have you passed in no time!

Passed my test today and wouldn’t have been able to do it without Don. He has been brilliant, from lessons to preparing for my test. 100% Recommend.

Ive had around 5 different instructors due to relocation, Don is by far the best. Very nice guy and patient instructor. Would recommend to anyone learning.

Test Tip Of The Month For Oxford

At the start of your test, make sure when checking over your right shoulder (your right blind spot) that you look for any vehicles emerging to turn right on the opposite side behind you. They can very quickly be upon you as you go to move out from the parking bays, potentially causing a dangerous fault.

Useful Driving Test Tip For Oxford

If you have forgotten the speed limit for the road you are driving on, then think about whether you have seen a change in speed or speed limit signs. Speed limit signs must be present when there is change in the speed limit. What are the cars in front doing? Are they driving considerably faster? What is the car behind doing? Are they driving too close and looking angry? None of these observations will give you the exact answer, but they can help you make a calculated decision. Also, look out for the examiner checking your speed limit; sometimes they lean over to see the lower speeds such as 30mph.

Frequently asked questions...

Yes, we do. Our Oxford driving school aims to be as flexible as possible. To avoid disappointment, always let your instructor know at the beginning of the lesson, or even earlier by text, so they can plan their route and avoid being late for their next pupil. Many learners start their lessons at college/university and then finish at their home/place of work.

Luckily for our learner drivers in Oxford, there is a test centre right on your doorstep, located in Cowley. You will be very familiar with Oxford driving test centre and its known test routes by the time you take your test. Throughout your learning, your instructor will include the test routes during your lessons so that you don't come across any unknown roads on your test.

Learning to drive in this historical city can be challenging. It has many narrow, winding streets that weren't originally designed for cars, as well as one-way systems that can be tricky to navigate. The city centre in particular, can get very congested with a high volume of pedestrians and bicycles, along with bus lanes that are strictly enforced.

However, you needn't worry with our one of our driving instructors at your side. They are all highly trained and will help you master your driving skills through the distractions, teaching you safe driving skills for life. They know just how to tackle all the difficult areas in the city and will gradually build up your skills so that you feel confident at every step along your learning journey. This is why so many people pass quickly with us!

Yes, we have a team of highly experienced female driving instructors in the area, who are all friendly, approachable, and experts in delivering quality tuition. We understand that some people would prefer to learn with a woman; if this is you, please do not hesitate to contact our Bookings Team, who will pair you with a female instructor who can help.
