To learn effectively, student drivers need to be calm and comfortable. That's why we list all the information that learner drivers care about when booking their first driving lesson.
Here is our breakdown for learning to drive in Leeds with a female driving instructor and driving school.
It's important to learn to drive with someone you feel comfortable with. Whether that instructor is male or female, is fully up to the learner driver. If you have a preference then that will help put your mind at ease when learning to drive.
Michele was amazing! Friendly and patient. After studying with several instructors I can definitely say that Michele is great for nervous learners. She also explained everything very clearly both in terms of driving and what to expect during the exam.
Michele is a fantastic instructor. She was clear in what we were learning each week so I knew exactly what I was getting into before each lesson. Knowing I was an anxious driver, Michele let me learn at my own pace whilst encouraging/pushing me to try things a little out of my comfort zone. Highly, highly recommend.
Michele was such a fantastic instructor. I was a very nervous driver and she made me feel really confident on the road. She gave me all the tools I needed to pass my driving test.
Michele is a great instructor. She is professional, calm, patient and supportive. Michele came up with new ways to help me embed information when I struggled. I would highly recommend.
Michele is a great teacher! I feel like I've not just learned how to pass my test but how to drive and I think her tips and pointers will stay with me for as long as I'm driving
Really great at teaching, I managed to pass my first test with the thorough help and support Michelle provided every lesson up until my test. Tackles uncertainty and nerves through clear applicable techniques. Thank you!
Michele is a rare find when it comes to instructors. I was particulary impressed by the way she teaches maneuvers. As you position the car ready to begin the maneuver, she always knows exactly at which point you should start reversing to slot yourself precisely into a bay, giving you a reliable reference point for future use. Michele is eagle-eyed and will absolutely spot even the tiniest of mistakes. It was useful to have someone so on-the-ball in the passenger seat whilst learning the ropes. Every aspect of my driving was scrutinised, but never in a way that felt unnecessarily harsh. She gives compliments sparingly, so that whenever you do receive one, you know that she means it. There's a reason Michele has such a long waiting list for potential pupils. She's an expert at what she does. Don't be put off by the fact that you might not be able to get booked in straight away, as the wait was certainly worth it.
Michele is a fantastic driving instructor. All the way through the learning process Michele is fixed on making sure confidence is built and road safety is paramount. Through her excellent teaching I successfully passed my test the first time. Her structure to lessons is very good and while designed to progress the learner through the stages of driving, there can be alterations if topics need a little extra time. For me, it was complex junctions ha! But with this extra time I built the necessary skills and confidence in managing that particular area. Michele has a very calm and supportive approach, and is also firm but fair to help build confidence and resilience in driving ability. She is always willing to answer questions and as you progress with your driving will ask you questions concerning what you are thinking when driving, such as, meeting situations, gear and lane discipline and everything else that driving involves. For me, it really helped as my driving progressed.
I was very anxious and lacked confidence when I first began learning to drive, but Michele is an incredibly patient and understanding instructor. She took the time to explain everything clearly and at a pace that suited me, and she provided helpful resources to review before my test. Michele also understood how my dyslexia affected my driving and adjusted her teaching approach accordingly. She never rushed me and ensured I was completely comfortable with each skill before moving on to the next. If you're looking for a supportive, professional, and encouraging instructor who genuinely cares about your success, I highly recommend Michele!
I'm glad I found Michele. She's friendly, professional, always calm and fully paying attention during lessons. She confidently navigates through any difficulty and taught me to take this approach as well. As a nervous driver, I found she helped me feel 'normal' on the road. I think she's good at reading the current skill of her pupil and adjusting the level of her guidance accordingly, so gradually they develop more and more independence. She's always on time, and if she were running late, she would always let me know ahead. It's clear she cares about her pupils and makes an effort to book them in for additional classes if needed for an approaching test.
Khula was very patient with me when I came to her explaining I'm an anxious driver. She took great care when teaching me and helped me overcome my fears. I managed to pass my test first time after only 3 months learning with Khula! Would 100% recommend to anyone who is looking for an instructor and especially those that are nervous about driving. Thank you again for everything I really do appreciate it 🙏 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Khula was great she was easy to learn with patient. I would recommend her to anyone
Khula was so patient with me and made sure I always felt comfortable with what we were doing, thanks to her I passed first go!
I had a different driving instructor who I didn’t see any progress in my driving, and then I saw good reviews of Aisha online and I contacted. Today I passed my driving test with 4 minor (driving fault). She is very patient, pushes you to bring out the best in you. Even at your best she still finds a tiny space to push you harder. I felt like a formula one driver (without their speed 😂) during my test, paying attention to the tiniest details on the road as she thought me. I will highly recommend her. And of course she teaches with a nice clean Mercedes. She is the best in Bradford.
I recently passed my driving test on the first attempt, thanks to my instructor Isha. With just 18 hours of lessons, she knew exactly what I needed to work on. Her patience and awareness made me feel confident behind the wheel. She also advised me to take more lessons, which definitely paid off—so listen to her! I’m very happy I chose Isha and highly recommend her.
I recently passed with Isha driving school first time. Working with Isha has built my confidence in many ways that I could imagine. Her patience, kindness and reassurance was a big help and made me feel extremely comfortable throughout the course of months. she also encouraged me to do more lessons when spiralling towards my test which I was a little hesitant but if it wasn’t for them I wouldn’t of achieved what I wanted. I 100% recommend Isha for manual driving lessons
Isha is a lovely driving instructor, with her help and dedication I managed to pass my test first time.
I’ve been taking lessons with Isha for several months and passed first time! Her patience, encouragement and hard work helped put me at ease, especially as I came to her as a nervous learner. I would highly recommend Isha for anyone wanting to learn to drive. I cannot thank her enough for all her help!
Isha is hands down one of the best instructors I’ve come across. She’s very easy going no pressure at all yet very effective. I have only been with her for a couple of weeks as I moved from another instructor but she handled me better than I even imagined. I have passed first time and I couldn’t thank her enough. Would definitely recommend
Alhamdulilah passed with Isha, she's very understanding and helpful. Never had any problems and gave me confidence driving. I'm very grateful to have had a patient and knowledgeable instructor.
I have just passed with Isha, she's very understanding and helpful. I'm very grateful to have had such a good instructor. Don’t hesitate book your lessons with Isha. Thank you Isha.
Just passed my driving test with Isha. She's a really good instructor and taught me everything I needed to know.
Past me first time very patient and understanding instructor. Passed me in under 3 months
I went with ishas driving school for my lessons and I passed first time! I would recommend to anyone looking for a female driving instructor, easy to inquire and fast response
I went with anisa for my driving lessons and i passed my test, shes patient and calm when in lesson. Would recommend
Was passed on Isha’s contact details by another driving instructor a few weeks back as I had my test at the end of January. I passed first time today as extensive 4 hour lessons with her and I honestly can’t thank her enough. I’d highly recommend Isha to anyone who is looking at taking lessons.
I passed my test thanks to Isha’s teaching. Isha is very patient, calm and knowledgeable about test routes and what you need to pass the test ! Grateful would always recommend
First time pass for me using Isha as an instructor. I’ve been taking lessons with Isha for the past few months and she is an excellent instructor! Very informative about test routes and helps you work on areas you’re struggling with. I’d highly recommend.
Is the best and professional instructor ,with her support ,her good attitude to teach me, the way she helped me to pass my test was just amazing thank you so much ❤️ so happy to pass today
Isha helped me complete my intensive driving course in the space of two weeks, and was able to give me the knowledge and skills required to pass on my first go. Would definitely recommend to others!
I passed first time with Isha. She was an excellent teacher and really pushes you to be a better driver. Couldn’t recommend her enough!
Isha is a well qualified, very attentive, professional and an amazing instructor, I would highly recommend her. I came to her needing lessons as I had my test booked in a month's time and was worried if I would pass or not. She helped me relearn driving in a short span of time, and would always prioritise and be available for me, she doesn't charge extortionate prices like the others, and i would say her pricing is worth it, for her quality of teaching, unlike other instructors, who would take advantage of learners, and charge too much. I’ve had 2 instructors in the past, they were unprofessional, verbally abusive, and would use my paid lesson time to pick up and drop off their other students. None of these occurred with Isha. She would make sure to note my mistakes, making sure I would go over them until I corrected them. This helped me massively improve in such a short amount of time so that I would be ready for the test. She managed to change my test date to an earlier date, and make adjustments to my date, such as the timing of my test, as my previous test was during peak time, as she knew i would be hesitant during rush hour so she moved my test to a quieter time, which would ensure I had less distractions, and increasing my chances of passing. Also she was kind enough to rearrange her entire schedule to match my availability, allowing me to take the lessons I needed in order to pass despite having multiple other learners, and her own things to deal with, she would always make time for me. She genuinely wanted me to pass and did everything she could as an instructor to do that in the span of just a few weeks. She was the best instructor I've ever had, and once again, I would highly recommend you take lessons with her, you wont regret it.
My heart is so full of gratitude towards Isha. She supported me so much throughout my driving journey. She guided and uplifted me so much. She is an amazing and selfless teacher. She will always hold a special place in my heart because when I wanted to give up she never let me and pushed me even more. She’s so patient, kind and a very very good teacher. If you’ve done multiple tests and are thinking of giving up, DONT you will get there! I passed today thanks to Isha’ good teaching skills her positive encouragement. Continue being the best in what you do!!
Passed first time , Grateful for the help! Well done
Isha is a great instructor and helped me pass first time ! She is very knowledgeable and was extremely patient with me when I was struggling . Im very grateful for the time she took with me and would recommend anyone to take lessons with her. Just follow what she says and you’ll pass in no time.

Really good instructor, helped me pass on my first time, the lessons are of top quality and she helped build my confidence in driving. Super professional and so supportive
I can’t thank Isha enough for helping me pass my driving exam on my very first attempt! From the very beginning, she made me feel comfortable and confident behind the wheel. Her teaching style is patient, clear, and encouraging, which really helped me overcome my nerves. Isha always explained everything in a way that was easy to understand and never made me feel rushed. She paid close attention to the areas where I needed extra practice and tailored each lesson to build my skills step by step. Her calm approach and positive attitude motivated me to keep improving every single lesson. Thanks to her guidance and support, I felt fully prepared on the day of my test. I couldn’t have asked for a better instructor. I highly recommend Isha to anyone who wants to learn to drive safely and confidently. She truly is amazing at what she does!
Passed first time with 3 Minors, I contacted isha a week before my test and she took me on last minute!! I learnt more with her in 1 week than I did with my previous instructor left me hanging lst week before my test date. Great knowledge and very patient with instructions.. she also helped me build confidence and worked with the areas I needed to work on. Best instructor!!
Passed the first time It’s great passing the first time and should give Anisa the credit. She is very aware of the routes and helped me with all manoeuvres perfectly and very satisfied with the service.
Great instructor! Isha is a great teacher! Calm, clear and always constructive! I passed first time thanks to her & so can you!
Good instructor , covered everything with me.
Anisa was a fantastic instructor, she worked with me to fit lessons around my work schedule and helped with my confidence a lot! She was friendly and professional, always calm and communicating instructions really clearly. Anisa spoke me though all the steps of the test and worked with my style of learning to make sure I was ready for the test. I passed first time!

Best instructor in Bradford I passed with noreen today on my first test, She is very good at her job,previously with other instructor I was messed about , Noreen quickly fixed my faults and got me ready for my driving test. You will be surprised the way Noreen teaches, her methods are very easy. Overall Noreen you are an excellent instructor. Thank you soo much!!
Passed first time today with Noreen, she was so good and patient. If you want to pass fast, come to Noreen, she is so good and experienced after doing this for 15 years. I passed within 1 week, she is fantastic! Thank you so much!
Passes today first time with noreen excellent and best driving instructor in Bradford passes me in one month. One month ago I did not know how to drive if you want to pass fast she is the best in Bradford no time waste and fixes all your fault and got me an early test date over the moon amazed thank you so much
Passed first time today with Noreen. Had a previous instructor and failed 4 times with them. Had a few lessons with Noreen and she corrected my faults and taught me the correct techniques. Such a lovely lady! I recommend all learners to have lessons with Noreen she is so passionate about the job and assesses each student individually.
I’ve just passed my test on the first try with Noreen as my only instructor. I really enjoyed my time with her. Noreen is patient, friendly, and knows how to find the best approach for an individual student’s needs. She structures lessons to fix faults as quickly as possible — no time wasted.
Learning with Noreen has been great! I passed first time with her at an earlier test. She taught me really well in 3 months. I definitely recommend Noreen if you want to pass first time too!
After a really bad experience with my previous driving instructor, who I've also written a review of, I was ready to pack in learning to drive altogether. I decided to give it another go and was introduced to Fiz. I'd explained my previous situation and she immediately put me at ease. It felt like I was sat in the car with a close friend I'd known for years. I've do far only had a few lessons with Fiz but wanted to write a quick review now than wait until the end of my course. Fiz has fantastic teaching skills, everything is explained clearly and calmly and she helps you build your confidence by complimenting you on good driving, which my previous instructor never did. I wish I'd have had Fiz as my first instructor as I'd have probably passed my test by now. I will of course extend this review once I've passed my test but for anyone looking for a driving instructor, I highly recommend Fiz. She has given me back my confidence to learn and I now look forward to each driving lesson. *Update* - I've now passed my driving test with 5 minors all thanks to Fiz, she is a great driving instructor. She really has helped to build my confidence behind the wheel and I now really enjoy driving. I could not recommend Fiz enough as a driving instructor. I'll miss having lessons with her going forward. Thanks Fiz :)
Amazing instructor with high level of expertise and knowledge. I would recommend Fiz as a driving instructor!!
After having numerous instructors and not driving for over 2 years I was understandably apprehensive to get behind the wheel again and I was filled with a lot of nerves as driving had been something I’d put off for a while. However even after my first lesson with Fiz I was given so much confidence and she proved to me that I can do it, developing and improving after every lesson the feeling of being able to achieve something I never thought I would was incredible. Fiz ensures you’re relaxed but makes everything seem so effortless and at a pace that’s easy to understand. I strongly recommend her to anyone, her friendly persona really puts any initial nerves you had to ease. Well done and thank you Fiz! 😊
Such an amazing driving instructor! Trying not to be biased, but all around this instructor helped a lot! Such a caring and patient teacher. 100% recommend
One of the best instructors. This instructor showed me everything there is to know and I learned everything within my 10 lessons. I was ready for my test in no time. Make sure you take take advantage right now!!!
I passed with Fiz, she has helped my brother and now my fiancé! Couldn’t recommend enough! Thanks so much 😊
Fiz school of motoring is friendly and reliable I would recommend it to anyone
Amazing experience was driving and learning with you fizz I had so much fun 100% recommend.
She is the best driving instructor I have ever seen I passed my driving test with her on 21/09/2020. She explains everything really good She makes you feel confident before your driving test if you’re nervous. All I can say is she is amazing.
Salma was a brilliant instructor. With her patience and guidance I was able to pass my test first time with only 3 minors. My lessons were consistent and comfortable. I would highly recommend Salma Saleem.
Salma Saleem is such a talented instructor, she really motivated me to pass and was continuously positive. Salma went above and beyond to ensure that I passed my driving test! Can’t thank her enough! So glad I finally found you after learning from instructors that just wasted my time and were not focused on equipping me with the skills and knowledge needed to pass a driving test! Thanks again Salma
I would just like to say thank you so much for getting me through my test and been totally amazing. Without you I wouldn't of done it, you had the patience and stayed calm at all times which really helped me build my confidence. I wouldn't defiantly recommend you. Thank you so much

ust want to say a big thank you to Heather Taylor my instructor who got me through my test. Anyone who's learning to drive I highly recommend her, made me feel very comfortable as I am not the most confident person. But she has increased my confidence substantially since lesson 1!
Heather is a great driving instructor with a lot of experience, her patience and technique are what got me to pass my test.

Heather is a fantastic tutor. She tutored me to a first time pass in 5 months with only one minor.

I would highly recommend - she has a very positive and friendly energy that will put you at ease during your early lessons.
Heather is a very good driving instructor. She takes the rules of the road very seriously and imparts them to you effectively. I passed first time, thanks to her.

She is a lovely woman, who is kind, caring, patient, funny, and can make you feel very relaxed when learning to drive. She has great teaching techniques and a lot of experience.

She’s amazing! I took so many lessons with different instructors before but no one is like her, Her teaching is excellent! She’s very patient and supportive. I passed first time with only 3 miners.
Heather was incredibly patient, friendly, reassuring and calm throughout all of my lessons. I was a very anxious learner, and she made me feel safe and at ease. After learning for a year, I passed my test first time!! I HIGHLY reccommend Heather!!
An amazing instructor, very kind and personable, the methods she uses for teaching is simple and very helpful and I passed within 7 weeks from being a beginner to a qualified driver. Very happy !!
Heather was fantastic! Always made me feel very safe and comfortable and helped me become the best I can be. She was my third instructor and choosing her was the best decision I have ever made.
Heather was very calm and supportive which really helped me to feel confident when driving.
Heather is incredibly friendly, patient and makes you feel at ease. You go at your own pase and get to prioritise areas that you feel less comfortable in. There is no judgement on your skill or ability just gentle advice and reminders on how to improve. Overall Heather is the perfect instructor, especially for those who lack confidence.
I had an excellent learning experience with Heather. Having no driving experience at all prior to my first lesson; Heather not only put me at ease, she was very friendly, reassuring and taught me at the correct pace and was incredibly patient and supportive. We built up a great rapport quickly and I also had fun learning. I passed my test and it it thanks to how I was taught. I would highly recommend using Heather to teach anyone to drive.
Brilliant instructor,friendly and great at easing you in when first learning Guaranteed first pass
Heather is lovely! Really encouraging and would show you things about the car other instructors ignore like how to fill up. If there is something that you don't understand she will show you an alternative method!
Heather was good - recommended to my friends
Heather was such a pleasant and patient driving instructor. She taught me every aspect of the test i needed. I would highly recommend her to all my friends. She helped me pass in 5 months.
I would absolutely highly recommend Heather. After having a few different instructors I had lost a lot of confidence but Heather helped me through that and was extremely calm and patient and I definitely couldn’t have passed without her.
Really kind and understanding, really recommend. Makes learning to drive really fun
Great instructor helped me pass first time
Heather was fab. I was really nervous when I started and quite neurotic due to my first driving experiences. I could never imagine myself driving and was considering switching to automatic. I decided to give manual one last try with Heather, and so glad I did - 2 and a half months later, I passed first time! We did lots of lessons - 2-3 times a week of with a mix of 1-2 hours, but mostly 2 hours. Heather was patient but honest, and created a relaxed environment for me to relearn. We had lots of good laughs. Highly recommend ❤️
She was really nice and helped me to be confident enough to pass first time.
I have learned with few instructors, Heather was the best as she was patient and gave plenty helpful advices throughout the lessons.
Heather is truly amazing! She was incredibly patient, supportive, and always made me feel safe and encouraged, even when I doubted myself. She never gave up on me, and thanks to her, I finally passed my test. I would recommend her to anyone – she’s not just a great instructor, but a kind and understanding person. I’ll always be grateful for her effort and belief in me. Thank you, Heather!
Excellant instructor Passed within 3 weeks.so glad I choose her. Would recommend
