Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Poorna for those who are planning to do the practical driving test because when I first started my lessons, I was not able to drive by myself without having someone in front seat telling me what to do. But, after few classes, I was able to drive by myself because He helped me to gain my confidence in driving by giving the clear instructions and correcting my mistakes in a calm manner. And also he was really flexible with the time when scheduling the classes which was really helpful for me as I was in a tight schedule and I was able to pass my practical test within a very short period of time thanks to Poorna.

Fantastic experience: POORNA was my instructor. He provided all the driving classes in an excellent way with out any discomfort. He always cool, calm and outstanding patience levels that makes me to learn classes peacefully and cleared my doubts with examples which drives me to achieve my goal. I cleared my VORT in the first attempt with score 94 out of 100. I really appreciated his instructing skills in every crucial situations of my all classes.

Fantastic experience: Achieved my P’s with Poorna! Would highly recommend lessons with him, he’s very thorough with his teaching and won’t let you sit the VORT test without his approval :) Was referred to him by a girlfriend and we highly ppreciate the dedication he had with the both of us

I had tried a couple of instructors before finding Poorna, he is very calm and friendly instructor. He showed immense patience helping me get through my weak points and also instilled great amount of confidence in me to safely drive on roads which is utmost important to be a good driver. I would highly recommend their service.

Fantastic experience: My instructor was Poorna. He had been one of the best instructor I could have asked for. He was very clam and patient and the ways of driving techniques that he taught me was very useful and helpful during my exam. I used to stress a lot but he tried making me clam during my driving which gradually helped me a lot when I had exam. I would recommend Dalston Driving School to everyone. Very satisfying service.

Fantastic experience: I found Akhil’s ad on Facebook and contacted him for driving lessons. I believe he is one of the those tutors everyone wishes they get. He has such a good personality and is very dedicated to his teaching. It only took him 2 weeks to get me test ready, and thanks to him I was able to get my drivers license on the first attempt. If anybody is looking for a reliable driving instructor I would totally recommend Akhil’s Dalston driving school.

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Poorna as a driving instructor. He is calm and patient. He encouraged and gave me confidence due to which I have successfully passed my driving test. He guides well, gives some easy tips and clear directions. Above all, he never loses his nerves if you get stuck and ask questions. I have also noticed that he doesn’t waste student’s time by unnecessarily taking classes. He has a fast approach and prepares you well for the test.

Thank you so much Anum, drive safe.

Negative experience: The driving instructor Akhil / Poorna was totally unprofessional and inflexible. He charged us money but didn't take classes. Very money minded with no focus on whether student is learning or not. He didn't teach full driving skills and techniques to student despite taking 20 hours of driving classes. Highly disappointed with services and don't recommend anyone unless they want to waste money and time.

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Poorna. He is an amazing instructor that guided me from being a driver with no experience to a confident one. His instructions/directions are very clear and easy to follow. He is very easy going, please punctual and ensures that you are comfortable. Never once did I feel judged during any of our lessons.

Fantastic experience: Poorna is an absolutely genuine and knowledgeable driving instructor. He's very positive and has thorough knowledge of the road rules. His teaching skills are impeccable and coaches you to take the test confidently and competently. My prior experiences with two other instructors were negative and they shattered my confidence completely. But Poorna reassured, encouraged and motivated me to drive with confidence. I cannot recommend him enough. Great value for money and he even corrects your mistakes subtly and ensures you understand. I absolutely appreciate the way he taught and took me on multiple rounds on the streets first to get the hang of things and once I was comfortable then took me on the roads. If you're looking for a driving instructor with the knowledge, skills and great attitude, look no further and contact Poorna. Thank you Poorna, I really appreciate your teaching which helped me immensely. I passed the test within no time and cannot recommend Poorna enough.

Fantastic experience: I couldnot think of driving a car or learning to drive. It is one of my biggest fears. But i talked to Poorna and he assured me that he will make the learning as smooth as possible. I took my lessons with him and he was so patient with me that i felt ease and got comfortable in learning. He taught me really slowly, gradually and at my pace… He explained each n every single little thing important to learn driving. Be it theoretical, practical or general knowledge he taught me everything very perfectly. I would recommend him any day for your licencing needs. He is patient, very understanding and consistent. From your L’s to your full licence, he is the best person to go to. I can’t thank Poorna enough for making me drive without fear and with full confidence. Thank you Poorna and Dalston Driving School for helping me achieve victory on one of my biggest fears

Thank you Naitra, that's so inspiring.

Fantastic experience: My instructor was poorna, and I would like to say that I was fortunate to get him as my instructor. He was very professional and understanding. He helped me understand the common mistakes, rules etiquettes and was very reasonable. I really liked how he maintained his composure throughout the classes and continued to be patient with me. He was able to calm my nerves and helped me stay focused so that I could focus on driving… Now coming to pricing prospective , I indeed called some other schools in this area & they even mentioned me a charge of $110/hr which i took couple of classes that is useless. They didn’t even come on time to take classes. But Poorna comes on time and knowledgeable which every learner needs that. Poorna pricing is very reasonable and mainly every minute you spent with him worth the money to get you to the proper training on road.. Thank you so much Dalston Driving School for my licence
