My course of lessons with Dino Sebbouh have been a really great refresher course for an out-of-practice driver. I have regained confidence at dealing with roundabouts and merging on to the dread A 34. Also rediscovered parking skills! Dino is an excellent coach. Read Less

I am so happy that I passed first time with LDA, my driving instructor Jan was AMAZING! I tried to drive a few years ago but didn't get on very well. Jan keeps you calm, explains everything so well and makes you feel super relaxed. I can't thank him enough and would recommend him every time. Read Less

Would highly recommend Sayed. He is a very competent driving instructor and gives detailed instruction. He is always very punctual and helps you get familiar with all the roundabouts, dual carriageways etc... so that the actual test feels like second nature. Even though my lessons were very spread out (which makes it harder to retain information), I was able to pass first time with only 27 hours in the car. Read Less

Jan Hajo was the best and most patient instructor. He gave you time and guidance to learn at your pace with no pressure. No question was a stupid question to ask. Would not have passed first time without his wisdom and guidance. Perfect for any learner, anxious or otherwise! Amazing experience. Read Less

I learned driving with Yasser from LDA. He is a very patient, thorough and skilled instructor, who can make the whole learning experience more efficient but less stressful. I absolutely enjoyed learning driving with him. I didn't expect to pass on my first try, but with his help I did!!! If you are learning automatic I highly recommend him. The LDA website provides some really helpful information as well. Very happy! Read Less

I had Ahmad as my instructor. Very polite, patient and understanding man. I passed my test first time after 16 hours worth of lessons with him. No time wasting, straight to the point with clear and easy methods. Highly recommend the academy and recommend Ahmad! Read Less

The best word to describe the Local Driving Academy is brilliant. The instructor Sayed has such a strong understanding of the highway code, his professionalism, driving skill and efficiency makes him one of Oxford's best. I can completely guarantee that if you use this company you will not only pass in short space of time but you will pass as a great driver. Regardless of your background or even if you are disabled like myself, LDA will guide you to victory. 10/10 Read Less
