I just passed my driving test today, and I couldn’t be happier! A huge thanks to Shabana Malik at S.M School Of Motoring—her calm, friendly approach and unwavering patience made all the difference. After trying several instructors, I finally found someone who truly believed in me. Shabana’s relaxed style and clear guidance boosted my confidence and made the whole process enjoyable. I can’t recommend her enough!

Raman Hama

Best instructors, would definitely recommend.Came an a new a driver learner and did it all from scratch and couldn’t have had a better experience. They make you feel so comfortable and explain everything as you drive and do an overall review at end of lesson on what you need to work on within the next lesson. Shabana made me feel at ease when it came to my test and from this I passed!! 100% recommend.

I did automatic lessons with Imran after my confidence was knocked with manual over 7 years ago…I really feared being in a car at first but he was so patient with me and went at my pace, had loads of laughs on the lessons too so it was super relaxed! I’ve now passed with only 2 minor faults first time after only 7 months which is an amazing turn around time for someone with little to no experience and a huge fear! Could not recommend enough 10/10 driving school ⭐️

Mo B

Imran is the best driving instructor I have ever had (and I’ve had a few). I’m so glad that SM were recommended to me at a point where I really felt that I would never be able to drive. I’ve been learning on and off for years (having failed 1 test previously) and within 3 months of learning with Imran, I’ve passed my test! I couldn’t have asked for a more calm, patient and supportive driving instructor. Despite my nerves, he has given me so much confidence with driving. He is extremely knowledgable, reliable and professional (but also a genuinely lovely person). I cannot fault him! Thank you so much 😊

Bethany Hall

Well passed my driving test this morning using Shabana, had driving instructors before and thought they was useless. Went with Shabana and she learnt me everything within 5 lessons. Passed first time exactly like she said. Thankyou

Bret Ward

Imran is the best driving instructor, I have ever had. Being new to this country and its laws, it has been a steep task to understand everything. Imran succinctly and brilliant explained everything to me, helping me pass my theory (1st attempt) and practical (2nd attempt). He was very patient and understanding, having a thorough knowledge of all laws and rules. He kept me motivated throughout this journey with constructive feedback. Sincere gratitude to him and the entire company!

Niramayee Prabhu

Imran of SM School was my instructor. During my lessons, Imran showed a great deal of experience in his guidance; very detailed and thorough in his teachings. He knows this job like the back of his hand. I passed my driving test practical with SM School. I am very excited and very grateful to Imran.

Highly recommended! Great coaching by Imran. Patient, excellent attention to detail, strategic coaching at key inflection points on driving routes, all delivered in a calm and analytical manner. Quite flexible and responsive to individual needs – accommodated my classes and tests at short notice. Good car with reverse camera that made manoeuvres easier. Thank you, Imran, for everything!

Rajat Desikan

Passed my driving test, first attempt today, with only 2 minor faults. Special thanks to Imran, my driving instructor, who helped me achieve this milestone. His lessons were extremely helpful in understanding the roads, roundabouts and getting a hang of driving in Rotherham which I was new to. The way he taught me maneuvers by making it simple and easy to follow helped me do it in the test perfectly. Highly recommend Imran to all the new learners! Overall, a fruitful experience 🙂

Sindhur Harittas

Passed my test first time with SM. Both Imran and Shabana were 10/10 at helping me to learn how to drive. Both very patient and help you thoroughly when learning to do something. Both made me feel very comfortable and I recommend to everyone.

Kornelija Eimontaite

S.m school of motoring is 10/10, after over a year of lessons with another instructor and feeling like I wasn’t getting no where, I had 5 lessons with Shabana and passed my test!

Shabana not only helped me with my confidence but made me feel so at ease with her friendly approach! She definitely got rid of my bad driving habits and ensured I was test ready in such a short space of time. I’m so glad I changed to S.m school of motoring as I definitely wouldn’t have passed without them!

Shabana is really flexible with times and days that fit around both her and you when at work full time!

I passed on Monday with only 2 minors and I couldn’t thank her enough for supporting me all the way! 110% recommend S.m school of motoring!!!!
