I passed my driving test first time

I passed my driving test first time! I would highly recommend Astars Driving School’s instructor, Hem. He was patient with teaching me all about driving (as a first time learner). He made me feel at ease even when I made mistakes and talked me through my errors in a positive way. This allowed me to build confidence in my driving skills. Thank you soo much Hem!! (:

I want to leave my honest review

I want to leave my honest review. My boyfriend found your school and arranged with you for the first driving lesson. The price for an hour and a half lesson was announced to him in a message and during a telephone conversation of £52.50. Yesterday 24/08/23 at 10:30am I had a lesson with your driving instructor. The driving instructor was 15 minutes late. My driving lesson lasted one hour and fifteen minutes and was supposed to be an hour and a half. The driving instructor did not deign to give me the opportunity to extend the lesson on time, as it should have been. At the end, when the instructor drove me home, I asked how much I had to pay for the lesson, your driving instructor gave a different price of £55.50 rather then the £52.50 which was quoted when booking. After the lesson my boyfriend called you at your driving school this man the driving instructor lied and said that the driving lasted an hour and a half and he charged £52.50! This is not a professional attitude and your school does not deserve a good review. I hope my honest review will help others not to choose your school and your services!

High-quality Service...

Astars Driving School is the best place to start your driving career. I passed my test on the first attempt. Astars will provide you with the best service. Ham was very helpful. He provided me with the best techniques to pass my test, and their service was excellent. All of the techniques that he provided me were very helpful for me at the time of the test. He motivated me and gave me a positive mindset throughout this process. He instructed me when to take the test (the right time for the test).

High standard and high quality Driving instructor

I had zero experience of driving before. In a very short time, Driving instructor Hemantha taught me basics, build up my confidence, shared all tips and techniques and covered lots of test routes. Finally I managed to pass my test at first time. I strongly recommend Hemantha to anyone who is looking for a high standard and quality driving instructor to pass the test at first time.

A big thank you to my instructor Mr.Hemantha…

A big thank you to my instructor Hemantha he is very patient, understanding, professional and good motivator. Very friendly and day by day he will correct all the mistakes you make and tell you the way to overcome them very easily. He will not only teach you to pass your driving test but to be a good driver. I could pass the test easily at the first time even in the busiest time of the day, because of his learning capabilities. I would highly recommend!

They have great patience.I used to make lot of mistakes during my lessons .They identified it and helped me correcting it with their effective techniques and guidance.They did not let me go away with it until I corrected it.The best part is you can ask them same questions 100 times until you are not cleared.They never get annoyed and will make sure you understand the subject thoroughly.The whole lessons were very informative and fun that I used to look forward for it.I would highly recommend them and learners will definitely pass if they listen and apply their advice and guidance.

A Star driving school

Hem has been a fantastic instructor, and because of his expertise, I was able to pass first time. Hem has enabled me to be a confident and safe driver. His lessons implemented life long skills of safety, and I am so glad that I chose A star driving school as my driving school to learn how to drive with. I would recommend Hem, and his driving school to every single person regardless of age. Hem caters for all people, even those who are hesitant behind the wheel.

Thank you so much Hem!
