Learner passes with one minor, credits instructor Afzaal

A Trustpilot reviewer says they believe they passed with just one minor, crediting driving instructor Afzaal for teaching them how to drive.

The pass

The review, written under the name Marco Appiah and dated 14 June 2024 (date of experience also shown as 14 June 2024), is a five-star, unprompted review. The reviewer credits the driving experience with Afzaal as one of the main reasons for the pass, saying: "I believe I passed with just one minor". No test centre, test date, attempt number or manual/automatic detail is stated, and none is claimed here. The review does not use the exact words "driving test", so this draft claims only a pass with one minor, exactly as the review words it — including the reviewer's own "I believe".

What worked for them

In the reviewer's own words: "It's been a wonderful journey with my driving instructor, Afzaal. He was really knowledgeable on how to teach people how to drive." The reviewer credits Afzaal's teaching directly for the result. The review does not say what the lessons covered or how the reviewer prepared, and none is claimed here.

Lesson for other learners

• A pass follows preparation: take the test only when your instructor agrees you are ready.
• Trust your instructor's judgement on readiness — a pass follows preparation, not rushing.
• Book only through the official GOV.UK driving test booking service, and only when your instructor agrees you are ready.
