RED Driving School 

My oxford Based Approved Driving Instructor shalena rahman. (shelly)
I’m so happy to have passed my driving test and i couldn’t have done it without you shelly! from the start you made me feel comfortable, confident and supported. You made the lessons enjoyable which made the learning easier. I can’t recommend her enough to anyone looking for a driving instructor. Thank you for everything.

James Valente is a superb instructor! I passed first time with only three driver faults and couldn’t have asked for a better teacher. His attention to detail was outstanding and his knowledge and expertise were second to none. He is a kind, patient, supportive and friendly instructor who made learning to drive a positive experience. Highly recommended.

I’ve been driving with Simon since the beginning of the year. Amazing instructor, so lovely and I passed first time with no minors, all thanks to him.
Very patient and reassuring.
Brilliant Instructor!

My instructor was Marcus, lessons and test were in the Bromley area. He's very professional, thorough and supportive. I liked the way he explained things and how he identified key areas of focus to make the lessons as efficient as possible. He's got a very good knowledge of the area, which helped a lot with preparation for the test.

Faraz has been an excellent driving instructor! The experience was smooth sailing. I learned a lot from my lessons with Faraz!

Would recommend to anyone in the area looking for a driving instructor. Made the entire experience enjoyable and stress free.

Had Sam Thacker as my instructor and passed first time today. He’s a great instructor and takes time to teach you whatever you need extra support on.

I had Neena as my Driving Instructor with RED and I had the best learning experience with her. She taught me how to be a safe, confident, and responsible driver - not just for my driving test but for life on the road in general. Her method of teaching was made it easy to learn and get the hang of things and I don’t think I could’ve asked for a better teacher. I definitely would not have been able to pass without her, and I ended up passing first time which is something I didn’t think I would be able to do.

Thanks Nazreen shakoor for helping me learn to drive had a great experience learning to drive and fun doing so .

Outstanding support and guidance from Marcus - he really made sure I was in the best position to pass the test and hopefully be a good driver! Highly recommended!

Tee was amazing! So patient, understanding, and clear. I had a previous driving instructor and I felt like I was getting nowhere, after a long break I went to Tee and she made sure I was confident in my ability. She made learning fun and I always felt supported. I passed my test first time thanks to Tee. 10/10 would highly recommend to any drivers.

I Paid £1600 and hoped to become a driver instructor. However, I was mislead, my training never provided as promised. RED Provided only one lesson of work for the entire week and charged full franchise fee. I had to stop as I could not afford it anymore. I was pressured and threaten by RED to pay franchise fee even not working. Due to RED’s negligence and incompetence I failed my part 3. Never be fooled by what RED promises you. RED only care about your money nothing else. Worst driving school ever.

Avoid Jason Evans . My daughter was having lessons with Red in the Guildford area , the instructors name is Jason Evans , he was very rude to my daughter and undermined her confidence when she was driving with him , he made her nervous and make mistakes , he would chastise her for these which did not help .
After each lesson I would take my daughter driving the test routes for 2-3 hours each day , I could see she was driving better each time so didn’t understand how one week away from the test the instructor told her she wasn’t ready and would not pass , this carried on , everyday . The day before her test she had two hours driving instruction with Jason , I met her when she finished , went and had a coffee together , she broke down crying saying how horrible Jason had been to her . We chatted and then drove the routes again , best driving yet , I told her she could pass if she could drive like that on the test day with the examiner . On the day of the test she drove to the test centre and parked up , not perfectly , Jason said “ there , see , you don’t know what you are doing “ nice one Jason , just before the test you did it again undermining her confidence .
Totally unprofessional , Jason should not be doing this job if that’s his approach , in my opinion .
Fortunately my daughter and I ran through this scenario , the plan was to ignore Jason and what he said , put a mental block up to him , this approach worked on the day .

My daughter passed much to Jason’s bemusement .

I could not recommend RED as a driving school , I’m bewildered that they employ instructors like Jason , would avoid RED and Jason based on my experience .

Huge thank you to Sam Thacker. Our son found him really supportive and easy to talk to. He gave him the confidence to pass 1st time with ease. Highly recommend.

I want to say thank you to my driving instructor Kingsley Ugwumba. I highly recommend him, as thanks to his efforts and patients I passed my driving test today. His instructions on the many aspects of driving was really helpful and very much appreciated. Thanks again.

Passed my test with Tihomir Zagorov earlier this week, and he was absolutely incredible! The nicest, down to earth guy, really made me feel safe, comfortable and assured, whilst also keeping me accountable for mistakes when necessary but most importantly really taking the time to hone and fix them. Genuine guy, really really happy with him.

Mariam is an amazing instructor without her I wouldn't have been able to pass on my first test, she made me feel really confident with my driving. Her way of teaching is really helpful, it helped me with fixing my mistakes, especially with my awareness. She's such a good instructor, definitely recommended her!!!

Adam was a really great driving instructor, he was always very supportive and helped me feel comfortable in the car even as a nervous driver. His instructions were always clear and he often helped me understand with images and diagrams of what the cars position needed to look like or what to do. Adam was also super friendly and we had some great conversations while driving.

I passed my driving test, thank you Tanisha Broady. Her lessons were clear, instructive, and helpful. The materials she provided were in-depth, and each practical session was well taught. Thank you, Tanisha Broady.

Some of the worst driving I've witnessed on the roads in Surrey. Shockingly awful lane discipline or awareness when to move with the flow of traffic and a completely wrong lane approach on a roundabout. What was even more shocking was when I was at the traffic lights, there was no pupil, it was the instructor herself. It doesn't surprise me the state of how bad the standard of driving has fallen
