I would highly recommend Shailendra Sir as an instructor he provided me all the necessary information to pass my road test for class 5. He use to correct to me everytime single time where was going worng and he use explain me in detail and that in very polite way, not only for my exam but he went an extra mile to improve my driving knowledge and make me a better driver also. He helped me a lot to boost my confidence in such a way that you must pass the road test in 1st attempt. He is definitely a top-notch driving instructor that deserves more than a 5-star rating. Thank you Sir I really appreciate all your efforts.

I had trauamtic experience with my previous instructors, to the point I shake when I hold a steering wheel. Mr. Shailen really helped a lot, build up my confidence, and today I passed my class 7 exam on first try! Finally can drive myself to work now. Thank you so much! Will recommend all my friends to him. I am very grateful to be one of his students. Hope he is still teaching when I am applying for class 5. :

It was a wonderful experience, He was very kind and patient instructor. He took it slow and made me understand all the rules again and even taught me things that my previous driving teacher didn't teach me. I took 2 lessons with him and was able to clear my class 5 test with flying colors on my 1st go. Overall, it was a wonderful experience and I would high recommend him.

A big thank you to my instructor, Shailen for his understanding, professionalism, promptness, and motivation. Despite being new to driving I knew the experience would be superb from my very first interaction with Shailen. I had an exceptional experience obtaining skills beyond what was required to pass the road test which I passed on my first attempt thanks to the knowledgeable instructor. I am really grateful and would highly recommend ShaRivz Driving School.

Today I passed my Class 5 after 2 times of trial. I booked the test yesterday and passed it today thanks to Shailen. He was so helpful and flexible with timing cause I requested the practice hour and a half before the exam. He assisted me perfectly by guiding me through all the necessary rules that I should follow and hazards that I should avoid during the test. I highly recommend Shailen as an instructor for road tests, you will definitely pass.

Andrew helped me pass my test, I passed with 0 faults, he's a brilliant instructor and teaches you how to drive properly and not just how to pass. He takes the time to plan around you and always made the experience much more fun. I Will always recommend Safe2go in a heartbeat
