Sitara was the best instructor I could have ever asked for. She was extremely helpful, kind and always patient. I would highly recommend taking lessons with her.

What Our Learners Say
A wider mix of reviews from learners who passed with different Latics instructors.
I really enjoyed learning to drive with Mat, He was always patient, friendly and made every lesson feel relaxed. He explained things really well and helped me build my confidence throughout each lesson. I’m really glad I had Mat as my instructor and would definitely recommend him to anyone learning to drive! Couldn’t have passed without him and will miss our weekly chin wags!
Had such a good experience with Latics. I had Zulf as my driving instructor, he helped build my confidence after failing my first time. He taught me so much and was super attentive with all my needs, and this definitely made driving so much easier for me. Would recommend.
Had my lessons with Zoe and got a pass!!! She is amazing and had the patience of a saint. Cannot thank her enough for getting me through my test with that pass certificate at the end. Highly highly recommend
I did lessons with Azeem since November, excellent teacher and accommodating to learning requirements, passed my theory and practical test first time. Teaches road signs etc for theory whilst learning how to drive. Would recommend
Big thanks to Zulf, great instructor, very friendly and calm, couldn't have done it without him. Passed first time, you'll be lucky to have him. Rimmon
I highly recommend Danielle as a driving instructor! She is very friendly, patient, and professional. She always explains everything clearly and calmly. She made me feel more confident and comfortable behind the wheel. Thank you so much for your support, encouragement, and patience. I finally passed my driving test thanks to your great teaching!
Danielle Howe is amazing, i couldn’t have asked for a more patient and kind instructor.
I couldn’t recommend Sohail enough as a driving instructor. He is incredibly patient and always takes the time to give detailed explanations, making sure I fully understand everything before moving on. His calm and encouraging approach has really helped me grow in confidence behind the wheel. Every lesson has been enjoyable, and I’ve felt supported throughout my learning journey. Thanks to Sohail’s excellent teaching and guidance, I passed my driving test first time, and I couldn’t be happier with the result.
Amazing Instructor,I was learning with Mat Slack and he just helped me pass today first time with 5 minors, he was patient,calm,able to adapt the lessons to however you learn best and give you the confidence to be able to make mistakes and fix them yourself without panicking and letting it slip,I cant recommend Mat and Latics enough for anybody learning to drive as they have a brilliant way of teaching for any type of person
1000/10 would recommend Zoe! She is an amazing instructor, the patience of a saint, and over all just a lovely person :)
I’ve been trying to drive on and off since I was 18, so going on 13 years, either told I’m not ready, or failing two other tests. Ten lessons with Sohail and I passed first time! Thank you!!
I recently finished my lessons with Sarah as I finally passed my test thanks to her!! I would highly recommend to everyone to book with her. She’s patient and kind, has plenty of resources to help you and she will explain anything you are stuck with in plenty of detail to make sure you understand and can improve.
I can’t recommend Huma enough! From my very first lesson, she was patient, calm, and incredibly supportive. She explained everything clearly and always made me feel comfortable, even when I made mistakes. Every lesson was well planned, and the feedback she gave helped me improve my driving and build my confidence. Huma believed in me throughout the whole journey and prepared me really well for my test. I’m so happy to say I passed my driving test after 35 weeks of lessons, and I couldn’t have done it without Huma’s excellent teaching and encouragement. Thank you, Huma, for all your patience, guidance, and support. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a friendly, professional, and reliable driving instructor!
Azeem is amazing!! Passed first time with him only 1 minor fault. Really easy going and makes you feel really calm. Easy to talk to and really knowledgeable on anything and explains it very clearly. 10/10 Thankyou Azeem!!!
I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better driving instructor than Sohail. From my very first lesson, I was really nervous and lacked confidence behind the wheel, but Sohail immediately made me feel at ease. He was incredibly patient, friendly, and always had a joke to help calm my nerves, which made every lesson enjoyable. Sohail’s teaching style is very detailed, and he always took the time to explain everything clearly. If I struggled with something, he never rushed me and would happily go over it as many times as I needed until I felt confident. My confidence grew with every lesson, and that’s all thanks to the encouragement and support Sohail gave me. He explained manoeuvres and roundabouts in such an easy-to-understand way, which made things that seemed difficult at first feel much simpler. He genuinely wanted me to become a safe driver, not just pass my test, and that really shows in the way he teaches. I’m so grateful to Sohail for all his patience and support. I can confidently say that I passed my driving test first time with only one minor, and to top it off, the examiner even commented on what a good drive it was. I honestly couldn’t have achieved that without Sohail’s guidance and encouragement. I would highly recommend Sohail to anyone looking for a driving instructor who is patient, detailed, great at building confidence, and genuinely cares about helping people become safe and confident drivers. Thank you again, Sohail! 😊
Paul Mills an Excellent instructor, very patient and reassuring, explains everything to you and asks for feedback, continual reflection on your lesson to ensure you feel confident, continued support to each individuals needs. Prompt and reliable and very accommodating. Would thoroughly recommend without hesitation.
If you’re a nervous driver, or an overthinker like I am, then Sarah Goulding is definitely the right instructor. I passed last week with just two minor faults. Sarah is one of the most patient people I’ve ever met, puts the time in to make sure you’re 100% right about anything you’re unsure of, and will most definitely give you the pep talk you need, too! Sarah was very understanding and supportive about my neurodivergence and used her own techniques and tactics to help me be the best driver I could be. You always feel safe and comfortable with Sarah, and she doesn’t make you feel panicky at all. I’ll miss our chats in the car! Thanks for everything!
I passed my driving test at 1st attempt after having lessons with Paul Mills from Latics. I learnt with 3 different instructors from another driving company but I did not enjoy the lessons at all. After learning with Paul, driving is much more enjoyable for me and I find myself much more confident. I highly recommend Paul if you are looking for a good driving instructor who will guide you with patience, knowledge and experience.
Had a great learning experience with Mat, every lesson I felt that I learnt something and I gained a skill I could take into the next lesson, the driving test and eventually my own independent driving aswell as never feeling rushed and always feeling supported. I definitely would not have passed with another instructor in the way that I did, passing first time and achieving zero minor marks on my assessment. Mat is patient, understanding, professional in his teaching and is clearly passionate about instructing and helping learners learn in a way that suits them best and will stick with them for the time that they drive.
I had my driving test yesterday and passed first time with only 3 minors! 🎉 I couldn't have done it without my amazing driving instructor, Azeem. He made me feel so comfortable and confident from the very beginning. Even when I doubted myself, he always believed in me and encouraged me to keep going. Throughout all my lessons, he was incredibly patient, calm, and supportive, which really helped me feel at ease behind the wheel. I can't recommend Azeem enough to anyone looking for a fantastic driving instructor. Thank you so much for all your help !! I couldn't have asked for a better instructor! 🚗✨
My instructors name is Sitara and I kid you not she was the best instructor I could’ve ever had. with her I was able to pass today first time in under 18 hours and she cares so much about her students even through the times I was being a difficult student she still cooperated with me and helped me through the tough situations which I overcame. And before my test she helped me calm down and not be nervous which is something that many instructors won’t do. But to everyone I highly recommend Sitara as she to me is the best instructor ever.
I had matt as my instructor, he was super professional and easy to learn from as I pasted 1st time
Sohail, great and detailed driving instructor.
Amazing instructor, really helped with my confidence. Examiners were very understanding about nerves and were able to help
My instructor was Sohail, absolutely brilliant instructor, has the patience of a saint and is a fountain of knowledge when it comes to driving. Previous instructors have always given me incorrect advice or allowed incorrect habits, which Sohail quickly corrected and made driving so much easier for me. He quickly understood my learning style and adapted his teaching methods to suit me. His knowledge of test routes is brilliant and extremely helpful when practicing. Even if you do something wrong, he calmly explains why it was wrong and how you can correct it, he doesn’t get annoyed or frustrated, which makes you feel much better about learning! I cannot recommend him enough, he’s an incredible instructor and helped me pass in an automatic first time, I shall miss our conversations putting the world to rights!
Really suggest Gordon as your instructor, as he was the best instructor I could’ve possibly had, was really helpful with the teaching and also speaks to you calmly if you made any mistakes or anything so that you won’t feel overwhelmed, really the best instructor!
I had a brilliant experience learning to drive with Latics and I couldn’t have asked for a better instructor than Zoe. She made me feel comfortable and helped build my confidence at my own pace. She was always patient, encouraging and explained everything in a way that was easy to understand. Even when I made mistakes, she stayed positive and helped me learn from them. Thanks to Zoe, I passed my test first time. I would definitely recommend both Zoe and Latics to anyone looking to learn to drive.
I had Danielle as my driving instructor from Latics and genuinely I enjoyed every second of being in the car with her. She is hilarious, patient and a fantastic teacher. I passed first time with 2 minors, and that it something I never ever thought I would say. I know people can feel quite anxious learning to drive but Danielle made me feel so so comfortable, nothing ever felt too much and I always felt supported and listened too. I feel so grateful to have been taught by Danielle!!
I have had the best experience learning to drive with Latics and that’s thanks to Zoe, I couldn’t have asked for a better instructor. She has a relaxed approach that put me at ease as well as being very calm and approachable if there was anything I needed more assistance with. She’s done so good that I passed with no minor faults first time it just shows how much of an impact she has on her students.
