Customer Reviews
Raja, the driving instructor, was most helpful in getting my confidence back after having lost it after not having driven for some time. He took his time and showed me how to drive on uphill, brake control and safety precautions.
I have gained my confidence back and would happily recommend him to instruct other learners.
Raja is absolutely the best driving instructor in Blackburn! As a really nervous driver he has given me the confidence to drive, his calm cool and collected way of teaching really makes you feel safe. He’s very knowledgeable and confident, his teaching skills are brilliant! Highly recommend!
I Passed my driving test first time with Raja after having around 30 hours! I literally had no clue about cars, let alone being able to drive one. My instructor made me feel really relaxed all the time and talked me through any stressful situations that came up. We spent lots of time going over test routes which made me feel confident on the day of my exam.I cant say enough thanks to Raja to help me become better driver.I highly recommend him to anyone.
Raja was fantastic! had such a great time learning to drive with him. He was very accommodating to my time schedule as I was learning whilst working full time. He is a lovely instructor who made me feel comfortable and confident in my driving skills. I finished my sessions with Raja last week passing my driving test for the first time round with just 3 minors ! i have Raja to thank for my success and highly recommend the school. Thank you Acorn school of motoring.
Today was my first day of driving an Automatic car with Raja and I have already Driven back home.I would highly recommend Acorn School of Motoring, Raja is an incredibly calm and friendly instructor who gives you the opportunity to ask as many questions as you want and he is fantastic at explaining things.
Thanks Raja.
I highly recommend Raja, I was nervous learner and Raja give all the confidence and help i required, He is extremely friendly and very informative driving instructor.
I still can’t believe that I pass my test first time all thanks to Raja.
I 100% recommend Raja to any one who want to learn and drive.
I highly recommend Acornsom school of motoring, especially instructor Raja he’s very calm, so on my lesson I was always very relaxed and stress free but he’s also very strict,he see every small mistake u make and explain how u should done it and that helps alot. I passed my exam after only 8 hours so I’m very happy that I choose him. I saved my hard earned money and I passed my exam in no time. So I highly recommend Raja to everyone and I promise you, you’ll not regret.
I would recommend Raja if you want someone who you can have a laugh with but can also teach you what you need to know to pass quickly. Before i started having lessons with Raja i didnt even know the basics of driving. I have learnt so much in such little time. If you want to learn with someone with patience and humour you should choose Raja.
Had Raja for 28 hours in 3 weeks intensive training course, passed first time! I Honestly can’t fault the price, tuition, and depth of knowledge, Raja! supports in the car and outside the car with helpful links, videos and advice. Had a fun 3 weeks with a cool instructor Raja and Passed the test at the end to cap it off. Could not recommend any higher and will definitely tell anyone who is looking to pass their test to go with Raja. Thanks again !
My experience with raja was amazing! I highly recommend raja! I had a bad experience previously then started my lessons with raja, and he boosted my confidence and my driving skills! And thanks to raja I passed today
Happy Coutomers
