One-to-one lessons where each step is explained before you drive it, from your first time in the driver's seat to test standard.
1One-to-one lessons in a manual car, explained step by step.
Manual lessons come up in four of the reviews Google groups by topic. Reviewers say Arif explains everything clearly and makes sure you understand before moving on, and that lessons get you driving rather than listening: one pupil liked that there were no long lectures sat in the car. Ask about automatic lessons when you call.

2For people who have never sat in the driver's seat.
One reviewer had never sat in the driver's seat before his first lesson, was nervous about learning at 38, and passed first time. Reviewers describe Arif as patient and supportive, and say he keeps your confidence up when something is not going well. You start with the basics and build from there.

3Had lessons elsewhere and it did not click? Start again from where you are.
Several reviewers came to ASM after other instructors or driving schools. One says that within a few lessons Arif corrected his driving to test standard; another says her first instructor "didn't click at all" and switching was the best decision she made. Tell your instructor what you have covered so far and the lessons start from there.

4Getting you to the standard the examiner is looking for.
The driving test is the most common topic in ASM's reviews, mentioned in 60. One pupil says Arif knows what the DVSA are looking for and what their standard is; another passed with one minor that Arif had warned him about beforehand. Nobody can promise a pass, and there is no pass rate here, only what pupils wrote.
