Driving test

I recently passed my driving test and couldn’t have done it without Rasheed. He was incredibly patient and explained everything clearly, which really helped build my confidence.

He always stayed calm and supportive, even when I made mistakes, and made sure I fully understood what I needed to improve. His teaching style is very encouraging and easy to follow.

I’d highly recommend Rasheed to anyone looking for a reliable and supportive driving instructor.

From Nervous Beginner to Confident driver

Every lesson was well structured and they took time to address my questions and improve my weak areas. I am truly grateful for their guidance and would recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and outstanding driving instructor again and again.

Rashid is an exceptional driving…

Rashid is an exceptional driving instructor who helped me successfully pass my driving test on the first attempt within just three and a half months. His teaching style is clear, well-structured, and focused, making it easy to build confidence step by step.

He provides honest, constructive feedback in a direct yet professional manner, which greatly helped me improve throughout my lessons. Rashid consistently maintains a high level of professionalism, creating a calm and supportive learning environment.

Additionally, he uses a well-maintained Toyota Yaris equipped with a reverse camera, which is especially beneficial for beginners and makes handling the car much easier compared to others.

Overall, I had a very positive learning experience and would highly recommend Rashid to anyone seeking a reliable and effective driving instructor in Boston.

Knowledgeable and Experienced

It has now been a full calendar month since I passed my test. I wanted to write an objective review; so, here goes.

The first star is for the first few lessons, especially how there was a particular focus on junctions. Focus on how to turn left and right on residential streets and busy roads.

The second star is for the tricks that whilst they are specific to his car, you can apply and practice them on your on car. Tricks on bay parking (forward and reverse), tricks on parallel parking.

The third star is for mastering roundabouts. The opportunities created by the “blockers”. Also, how to maintain the correct positioning, especially when lanes are not marked.

The fourth star is for the Q&As. Don’t be afraid to ask questions for clarity, even when you think it’s silly, Rashed will respond even when he may think it’s a bizarre question 😂

The fifth star is for commitment and dedication. Some days, the lessons got too overwhelming and I would want to cut it short. Instead, alternatives on manoeuvres would be offered. I wanted to change my test date and this was STRONGLY discouraged. In the lead up to my test, he was ill and whilst he cancelled most other learners, he remained committed to the few he felt were critical. Perhaps another instructor would have just showed up on the day of the test and not gone ahead with the scheduled lessons.

I passed first time with less than two months left on my theory test! I also give a sixth star for that!!!

Excellent Driving Instructor

I cannot recommend Rashid highly enough. He has taught two of my daughters and they both passed first time. But its more than that, he has actually taught them to be very competant drivers, beyond just passing a test.

I would highly recommend

I would highly recommend. Rashed is an excellent driving instructor who is very patient and made me feel comfortable and supported from the get go.

It's very easy to book lessons and at a good rate. Rashed is always quick with communications and flexible when you have other commitments to fit lessons around.

Thank you so much, I feel much more confident behind the wheel since taking these lessons!

I would like to highly recommend…


I would like to highly recommend Affordable Automatic Driving Lessons | My ADL | Boston to anyone looking to learn how to drive with confidence and ease. The service is truly professional, reliable, and well-suited for learners at any stage.

From the very first lesson, the instructor was calm, patient, and incredibly supportive. They explained everything clearly, which helped me feel more relaxed behind the wheel. The automatic car was modern, clean, and easy to drive — perfect for beginners.

Scheduling was flexible and the rates were genuinely affordable, especially considering the high quality of instruction. I felt that every lesson was tailored to my progress, and I appreciated the consistent feedback that helped me improve quickly.

Rashed was really supportive

Rashed was really supportive, many times drilling which may be misconstrued by some learners as unhelpful but this is actually what a teacher and an instructor should do to bring out the best in their learners
