I honestly couldn’t recommend Zara’s Driving Lessons enough! After going through 3 or 4 different instructors and never quite feeling confident, I finally found Zara — and I passed my driving test first time! 🚗🎉

From the very first lesson, Zara made me feel completely comfortable and at ease. She’s patient, friendly, and really understands how to teach in a way that builds your confidence. What I loved most is how clearly she explains everything — no matter how complicated something seemed at first, she always broke it down step by step.

When it came to roundabouts (which I used to find really confusing!), Zara would actually draw them out for me and go through each scenario so I could properly understand what to do and why. That made such a huge difference and helped everything finally click!

Zara is so professional, reliable, and genuinely cares about her students. Every lesson felt structured and focused, but still relaxed and enjoyable. She always gave me useful feedback and never made me feel rushed or pressured — just constantly encouraged me to do my best.

Thanks to Zara, I went into my test feeling fully prepared and confident, and I can’t thank her enough for helping me pass on my first attempt. If you’re looking for a patient, knowledgeable, and supportive instructor, Zara’s Driving Lessons is definitely the best choice! 🌟

Hijab Arshad

I can not recommend Zara enough! She took me on as somebody with no driving skills and passed me within a month or so. I had no test booked originally, however Zara organised this for me. She managed to change my test from the end of March to the beginning of January and got me test ready and passed 1st time! Thank you Zara!👊🏻

Anton

Zara has been the absolute best helping me physically and mentally through the test! I felt so safe knowing she had so much trust and faith in me passing. I honestly could not recommend anyone better than her. I love how she cares about her learners and always makes space for our lessons no matter what! Thank you zara x

I would definitely recommend using Zara’s Driving Lessons. Zara is patient and explains everything needed to ensure that you are confident enough to pass first time. Zara makes sure that you pass mock tests before taking your practical, which means you know exactly what to expect and can be calm on the day.

One thing I would say is that you should make sure you’ve done your theory and have your practical lesson booked before starting Zara’s intensive course because she can have you ready fairly quickly with the regularity of lessons and the waiting time for theory and practical tests in Reading is really long so you don’t want to start too early.

James

Highly recommend Zara’s driving lessons. I passed my test first time with no prior driving experience. Zara is really great in explaining the right things to do and takes you through the correct process and ensures you are learning it the right way. She also managed to change my test from the end of March to the beginning of January which helped me gain my license quicker. Thank you Zara

Anton

Had a good experience on training and polishing the mistakes. Mock tests help you to gain confidence to ensure you are pass ready.

Highly recommended.

H Raina

I couldn’t recommend Zara more – I passed first time after just a few lessons with her. Zara’s lessons are incredibly effective – she always ensures they have a clear focus regarding the driving test in mind and won’t let any faults go unnoticed. Her patience is amazing and she always explains things clearly. While she pushes you, the environment during lessons is very relaxed, which made a huge difference to my confidence on the road. If looking to pass quickly, you should definitely get booked in.

Thomas

first lesson no experience no confidence and i can say after my first lesson I am a lot more confident and very happy with the 2 hour session as I started with no knowledge and now can confidently say I drove on double carriage way and was taught step by step and was broken down to me slowly and helpfully

Daniel

I just passed my driving test on my 1st Attempt with minimum hours and so quick, I am over the moon as Zara helped me gain my driving licence very quick with an easy and safe techniques with her assessments and mock tests. If you’re wanting to pass quick chose Zara

Miri

Absolutely lovely instructor, so patient and reassuring.

Forever thankful 😊

Kelly Marie Lee

I have just passed my driving test first time and I couldn’t have done it without the help of Zara’s driving lessons.

She is exceptional at teaching learners experienced or new and is an amazing person is general.

I would very highly recommend her to anyone learning to drive if they want to pass their test fast and first time.

Wasim Abid

After trying to pass with 3 different instructors over a few years, I am so grateful I found Zara’s driving school. Zara was absolutely phenomenal. I cannot praise this woman enough on her teaching style and methods. She consistently gave me positive reinforcement and made each lesson enjoyable and educational. She’s everything you need/want a driving instructor to be. Choose Zara’s driving school to learn to drive, 100% you will not regret it.

Megan Carlie

Highly recommend, I passed first time within a months time intensive course. If you’re looking to drive in reading then you should definitely choose Zara.

Humza Shah

Definitely recommend Zara driving. I had no confidence at the start but Nargis really helped build it and explained everything really well. Helped me to pass today with no faults. Even helped my mum to pass with 1 minor. Cannot fault her, a heart teacher. Recommend for anyone who is a nervous driver.

Hafzah Hussain

Highly recommend Zara’s driving lessons. She was very helpful, patient and explained everything so clearly which made me feel very comfortable driving as I was new to driving.

I have passed my driving test first time within a month with just 6 minors – thank you for all your hard work and for clearing my doubts. Just listening and understanding all her instructions, is more than enough to pass the test in one go.

You are a great instructor!

Shubham Shrivastava

I would 110 % recommend her to everyone, it is all thanks to her that My daughter Komal passed her driving test with only 1 minor. She really makes you feel comfortable and at ease using the best method of teaching, ensuring that any faults made during the lessons are corrected by going over the same situation/route a number of times until it is 100 % correct so that it is not repeated during the test. Thanks to her she went in with full confidence to the test as She knew She… See more

Shabana Ikram

From the first lesson of being a beginner driver Zara kept me calm and explained everything in very good detail to make it clear what is wrong and right. From this I progressed very quickly and within a week I was test ready. The company Zara gave also played a big part by engaging in conversation to make the driver feel relaxed and at ease. To anyone looking to pass a test within a short period of time I would highly recommend Zara’s for a intensive course.

Lee Jones

It was a 10/10 experience with Zaras driving lessons I highly recommend! I was a beginner and I passed just under 4 weeks all thanks to you.

Tyrese Weekes

I really can’t recommend Zaras enough, she really helped build my confidence up and correct my faults after failing twice with other instructors. She explained everything well and was patient with me. I definitely wouldn’t have been able to do it without her help and support. She was very accommodating, and organised lessons for when it would work for me.

Malenka Nebril

It was a good choice getting the intensive course. Passed the test on my first try. The mock tests are almost the same as the actual test, all the test routes are going to be covered. Very grateful to Nargis. 👍

Laryli Perez

Excellent driving school. I’ve past at the first try with two minors, so you will be in good hands when choosing Zaras.

Kamil Ł-z

I highly recommend Nargis of Zara’s Driving Lessons to get the UK Drivers license. Her approach to making the learner understand the rules and regulations of UK driving are simplified to the core..this makes the learners understand, recall and apply this knowledge to drive efficiently on UK roads. Thanks, Nargis… truly appreciate your patience and understanding!! 🙂

Yaminee Balasubramanian

I highly recommend Zara’s lessons ! At first I had no confidence driving but she had patience to explain things to me as many times as I needed. Because of her amazing teaching style I felt very comfortable and build confidence. She is best instructor!!!

Nerry Surdoke

Zara is a great instructor, she is calm, patient and makes you feel very comfortable and confident behind the wheel. Zara was very flexible with me and pushed me to pass in under 10 lessons. Iv already told my friends and family that aren’t driving to hurry up and book Zara! Learn to Drive in Style lol

Thanks Zara

Jamah Childish Lynam

I highly recommend Zara!

Only had a few lessons with her, however she was incredibly helpful and a great coach. Giving a big thank you 🤙🏼

Hunter Greyling

Zara is such a great coach! Even though we only had a short time together on her crash course she was very calm and patient, and gave real simple techniques that made a huge difference to me passing first time with her! Also she has a great car to learn in which I believe helped me pass even easier!

Thanks Zara!

Zayyan Amani

Nargis is a fantastic instructor. She made sure that I am confident with all the maneuvers and completely prepared me before the test with multiple mock tests.. She is good at finding out your faults and correcting it …she has exceptional teaching skills and patience and I would recommend Nargis to anyone who would like to pass their tests quickly.

Once again thank you so much for making me confident behind the wheels..

Parvathy Chandran

Nargis is the best instructor in town. She works real hard and gives a lot of confidence on passing first time. Very patient and motivating. She aims for quick pass and always made herself available for long when my test was near, untill she got satisfied with all my maneauvers. She conducts lot of mock tests to ensure there is no chance of failing in the test. Would highly recommend Zara’s for beginners who want to pass in their first attempt.

Pramit Chakraborty

Doing an intense course within two weeks and perfecting every manoeuvre ready for exam seemed impossible at first but Zara made it so easy and honestly I couldn’t be more grateful. She was patient,always engaging and easy to talk to which helped a lot in easing the tension within the first lessons. Would I recommend her? Most Definitely!!110%. Once Again Thank You Very Much Zara😁😁😁😁💯👊🏾

Michael Ndungu

Zaras driving lessons gave me the confidence and knowledge I needed to pass my driving exam . I feel that there aren’t that many driving instructors out there who actually value your time and money…but ZARAS DRIVING LESSONS are not at all like that , Iv never met someone who put me before them…;. I came to them with my problems and they understood what it means to be a student or a young driver , how money isn’t easy to acquire and that a busy schedule and school works effects our day to day life and I feel that they made me more confident and instead of me having to put a lesson into my time table she worked around mine which I am forever grateful for ! Great value for money , she made me feel welcome and always put 110% on me.

Tayyb Samir Yamin Rahman

Had a fantastic course with Zara, she was the most professional and helpful instructor I found. When I called I wanted to pass ASAP and a week later here I am fully qualified driver and that was down to the fantastic lessons I received, anyone that’s thinking of learning to drive come here and you’ll pass first time straight away!

Daniel Lewendon

I had a brilliant time doing a one week intensive course with Zara’s Driving Lessons. Nargis is an excellent instructor who’s very friendly, patient and supportive. She was great with giving me a confidence boost and helping me to correct all of my faults in time to pass my test. It was a pleasure to learn to drive with her and I would 100% recommend her to any learners in the Reading area.

Ryan Jewell

Nargis is a fantastic instructor and really goes the extra mile with her clients. I passed first time with just one minor and it was all thanks to Nargis for her patience and superb teaching ability- she ensured that I was fully prepared for my test and in just 3 months I went from beginner to passing my test!!

I would recommend Nargis to anyone looking for a super committed driving instructor who takes enormous pride in her hard work to ensure pupils can pass first time!!

Thank you Nargis you are fabulous!

Reema Sharma

Learning with Zara’s Driving Lessons has been great. I came to Nargis as a beginner and within 2 months she managed to pass me first time which was all down to her teaching. She is extremely patient and so encouraging, she will never once make you feel like you can’t do it. She’s such an amazing instructor and is genuinely so passionate about her teaching. She’s great at pinpointing your weaknesses and practising them until they are perfected. She’s a brilliant person and makes every lesson enjoyable.

Eshana Sharma

Nargis is a fantastic hard working instructor it really worked on me I had bad driving habits she fixed everything and took me to a test level I would recommend her to anyone who wants to do their driving lesson thank you for everything xxx

Peter Cooke

Cheers for passing me in 10 weeks and remaining safe and informative throughout the whole process. Thanks for all your time and patience and least I can do is highly recommend you to anyone who wants to pass quickly! �

Jamie Clark

I am glad that I made right choice by choosing Zaras Driving. I was with another instructor but had to leave him due to some unavoidable circumstances. But from very first lesson I realised how different Nargis’ style of teaching is. She quickly measured my level of driving and started correcting my errors. After few introductory lessons I started my intensive week and was able to pass successfully in short amount of time. The best thing about her is she does not give up until all you stop making even small errors. I highly recommend Zaras Driving and certainly it is one of the finest driving lessons provider in Berkshire. Thank you again!

Mausam Stha

I would like to thankyou nargis for being the best teacher I could of asked for passed me very quickly, efficiently and safely you always tried to make time although you have a busy schedule and I would recommend you to anyone and everyone as a instructor thanks for your time and effort once agin yiure the best instructor in reading in my opinion. ���

Dawid Kolat

Zara’s is a excellent for people who wants to drive and pass early quickly compared to other instructors I have been to. Zara keeps her lesson together compared to the the other instructor who doesn’t. Many wishes and blessings to Zara driving lessons. I hope it still achieves to be the best.

Bayzith Amin

If you want pass, then this is the place to do it. Zaras driving is a very reliable place to learn and pass. You are able to calmly learn a routine at your own pace and pass! Zara is a very reliable and understanding instructor who understands how hard it is to learn from scratch, she even might get u lunch, if it will get you to pass!

Jackie Carmichael

Nargis did such a fantastic job of teaching me to drive.

She took my personality, work patterns and learning style into consideration and created lessons which allowed me to learn the syllabus at a comfortable rate.

I am so grateful to have been taught by someone with such a great teaching style who was so focussed on making sure I passed first time- and I did (and I even felt at ease)!

Thank you Zara’s Driving Lessons! �

If anyone would like to take any driving lessons in the Reading Area then I would like to recommend Zara’s Driving Lessons as being a top ⭐️for best quality in her teaching style compared to my previous instructor, as I felt I learnt more with Zaras in a short time then I did taking 15 hours elsewhere learning very little.

She really is down to earth and will make you feel comfortable as genuinely I am a very nervous person. I must say she is the best instructor and I am over the moon today. ☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️

Sukhvinder Singh

If you really want to pass your driving test first time then Zaras Driving Lessen is the place to do because she really have got the X Factor/super star quality that you are looking for and this is coming from a guy that had been around phew instructors.

Its not just about money with her, she honest pushed me to be the best I can be and she is also a very patient but farm when need be.

which are some of the key ingredient needed to be successful if you ask my opinion.

Lastly, you can rest assured that Zaras Driving Lessen will never set you up to fail because she will be there to guide, support and believe in you all the way as she had just done for me.

On the 7th October 2015 I passed my driving test first time with Zaras Driving Lessen.

It has been such a pleasure to learn driving from Zaras. Passed in my first attempt with great comments from the examiner. She is very methodical in teaching which is amazingly helpful.

Overall, I am really happy with the lessons and I would highly recommend to anyone considering taking classes. Thanks!

Aman Varma

Probably the best quality and funniest driving instructor I could have gone with. Passed so quickly and from never being sat in a car to passing in a month was worth every penny.

Thank you so much Zara’s driving lessons!

cassie-marni martell

Thank you so much Nargis.

First-time driving in the UK is not an easy task as it requires good discipline, commitment, and understanding.

Nargis is an excellent teacher/instructor who is very calm, patient, and friendly. She boosted my confidence while also correcting my faults.

I Would definitely recommend Zaras Driving lessons to anyone who wants to become a very good driver.

Shrinivas Reddy

It has been quite an exhilarating learning experience at Zara’s. As an established driver, the errors I was committing were tough to correct. However, Nargis was patient to the highest levels and gave me repeated reinforcing lessons to correct my errors. She instilled confidence in me and made me feel absolutely comfortable while driving around new roads. Thank you, Nargis! I truly believe that you are the best driving instructor who approaches driving lessons from the learner’s perspective to simplify the learning process. Thank you once again! 🙂

yaminee tc

Thank you so much Nargis ! It was one of the BEST experience I have ever had for the driving lessons ! I have been driving for last 25 years but in UK; this was the first time! Not an easy task to attain a good driver status on UK roads; it requires good commitment, discipline and moreover an instructor who understands you the best in terms of strengths /opportunities and guides you to cross the line…this was my experience with Nargis ! She is a coach, friend and a very good understanding teacher !! Thank you Nargis once again ! Would definitely recommend Zara’s driving school to anyone who want to become a good driver on UK roads and CROSS the line with feather on the cap !!

Thiruchendhil Arasu

I would 110 % recommend her to everyone it is all thanks to her that I passed my driving test with only 1 minor. She really makes you feel at ease using the best method of teaching, ensuring that any faults made during the lessons are corrected by going over the same situation/route a number of times until it is 100 % corrected so that it is not repeated during the test. Thanks to her I went in with full confidence to the test as I knew I had the best guidance from the best instructor 🙂

Very friendly and is hands down the best and most professional driving instructor in Reading.

Komal Ikram

Skillful instructor with massive experience. Did a mock test on me for only a couple of hours and i passed the exam on first time . Totally five star 👍🏻

Nima Moradian

Best driving instructor taught me so well and in depth what I would have learnt in 5 lessons she taught me in 1 lesson great instructor

Fariviews

Highly recommend Zara’s driving lessons. She was very helpful, patient and explained everything so clearly which made me feel very comfortable driving as I was new to driving.

I have passed my driving test first time within a month with just 6 minors – thank you for all your hard work and for clearing my doubts. Just listening and understanding all her instructions, is more than enough to pass the test in one go.

You are a great instructor!

Shubham Shrivastava

Shubham Shrivastava

I definitely would recommend Zara’s driving lessons! I had my first lesson on my 17th birthday and passed within two months with 4 minors. This was all down to her amazing teaching, she made me feel at ease from the first lesson, right up to my driving test. She helped correct all my mistakes and explained everything clearly so I didn’t make the same mistake twice. I felt confident during my test as it was a route she had taken me down before during our mock tests and our lessons, she knew the driving test routes like the back of her hand. I looked forward to every lesson and didn’t once second guess my decision of driving instructor. I can’t thank her enough for all the hard work she put it in.

Eimaan Amjed

Very talented and extremely patient driving instructor.Nargis is really great in teaching you the right way and takes you systematically through the process and ensures you are learning it the right way. If you looking to pass on first go, this is the place to be. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Rajesh V

I highly recommend Zara’s lessons ! At first I had no confidence driving but she had patience to explain things to me as many times as I needed. Because of her amazing teaching style I felt very comfortable and build confidence. She is best instructor!!!

Neringa Markeviciene

Simply the best in town! I passed on the 1st attempt, with only seven sessions, in less than a month. I haven’t driven manual cars since 2014 and am always on automatic. But Narges helped me master manual driving and prepared me for the test in a very short time. One of the best instructors/teachers I have ever learned from, not only as a driving instructor but as a supporter and mentor. She is skilled in knowing your strengths and weaknesses and how to help you beat the challenge. Above that, she knows the test routes well, so when I did my test, the whole route was not new for me because she took me on the same route over and over, until I knew it by heart. Do not miss the opportunity to learn with her if you can.

Muhammad Refaat

Thanks to Nargis who was my instructor. She is the best instructor I found. The best thing about her is PUNCTUAL and PATIENCE. She is honest to her job. Her instructions were very clear. Her patience level is too high, which helped me during my lessons. She does understand the category of learners and deals according. She doesn’t recommend unnecessary lessons. I would highly recommend Zara’s Driving Lesson.

Viswanath Basavanuty

I failed once with different instructor but once zara driving took over on my lessons i passed in one go.

I loved my driving lessons with Zara Driving Lessons! She was really thorough and extremely patient. She adapted her teaching style to my energy and personality which certainly contributed in me passing my driving test. I recommend her highly to anyone without thinking twice and any hesitation. Thank you zara driving lessons.🙂

vaibhav bhojak

Learning with Zara gave me so much more confidence than I had with previous instructors, she helped me so much to gain confidence with her amazing skills of teaching and with this I passed first time with Zara! Once again I would very highly recommend her to any learner as she did such a great job with me and overall I am would not regret the decision at all with having Zara as my teacher!

olivia andrews

Exceptional service from a gifted teacher who has a way of simplifying things to suit the learners needs. I was privileged to pass first time under her tutelage and I’ve watched Zara do the same with other learners time and time again.

Zara also got me an earlier test date than originally planned and delivered as promised ( i.e., getting me test ready with their intensive course by the test date) and then some. An absolute legend!

I thoroughly enjoyed my learning experience at Zaras Driving School. I highly recommend them.

Simisola Onalaja

Nargis is an amazing driving instructor who puts you at ease and ensures that you grasp all the skills needed to pass your driving test. She was incredibly accommodating and was able to fit me in ahead of my theory test expiring. Would definitely recommend.

M Mahmood

After trying to pass with 3 different instructors over a few years, I am so grateful I found Zara’s driving school. Zara was absolutely phenomenal. I cannot praise this woman enough on her teaching style and methods. She consistently gave me positive reinforcement and made each lesson enjoyable and educational. She’s everything you need/want a driving instructor to be. Choose Zara’s driving school to learn to drive, 100% you will not regret it.

Megan Wigmore

Highly recommend Zara’s driving lessons. She was very helpful ,patient and explained everything so clearly which made me feel very comfortable driving.

I have passed my driving test first time within a month – thank you for all your hard work.

You are a great instructor! 🙂

Zara’s Driving School was fantastic! She helped me feel confident and ready in time for my test, she taught in a way which suited my learning style and she was really understanding when I found myself struggling.

I had tried learning previously with another instructor but gave up because I found it so difficult. I returned to driving a year later with Zara and she helped me feel really comfortable being in the driving seat again and passed my test first time!

Highly recommend for any learner at any stage of the learning journey. She was FANTASTIC!

Zara is an extraordinary teacher with exceptional teaching skills. She meticulously go through each subjects and make you test ready in shortest time. Through her intensive course she ensure all her learners feels confident and pass the driving test in the first attempt. The best thing is she understands the strength and weekness of the learners and taught learners of any stage as per their comfortable level.

So if you want to pass first time and feel comfortable, I would highly recommend her. She is the best instructor.

This is an intensive course tutor with rich experience. She never talks nonsense. She will teach you what you don’t know. She knows where your weaknesses are and how to strengthen your training. More importantly, she can help you pass the exam quickly without wasting too much training time. The only downside is that she has too many learner. It is difficult to make an appointment for daily training time, but no problem, she can meet almost everyone’s needs.

Zara’s Driving School has really changed my life. That might sound dramatic but I reached out to Zara with absolutely no confidence in my driving. I passed my driving test over a decade ago, having been taught by a bully of an instructor who made me feel dreadful every time I sat behind the wheel. Couple that along with such a long time having not driven again but now needing to for my work I searched for local driving instructors in Reading and was blessed to find Zara. Immediately, she made me feel so calm and cared for as her student. She understood and empathised with my story within a few minutes I knew that I would learn so much from her. Within the space of 5 2-3 hour refresher lessons, Zara took my confidence to amazing heights that I did not think was possible. From the very basics of vehicle operation to understanding the road and navigating it safely all the way to car maintenance and the business side of owning and operating a car, Zara with her confidence, her talent and her charm has allowed me to believe in myself to apply for and land driving required roles in my industry which has been a huge game changer for me. Thank you Zara so much. Local students, Zara’s intense beginner course is absolutely fantastic and well worth your investment and to my fellow drivers who needed a refresher, look no further!
