Learn from a former examiner
With over 10 years of experience in driver training and assessment, I bring unique insight that only a former examiner can provide.
Your instructor
I'm a former examiner with over 10 years of experience in driver training and assessment. This unique background gives me an unparalleled understanding of what examiners look for and how they assess candidates.
Having sat in the examiner's seat for years, conducting hundreds of driving tests, I know exactly what causes most test failures and what marks separate a pass from a fail.
This insider knowledge is what I share with every student from day one. No guesswork, no wasted time - just focused, strategic instruction that gets results.
That's why 98% of my students pass first time, with an average of just 10 hours of lessons.
The Ulearn difference
What makes learning with a former examiner different from other driving schools?
Former examiner insight
I've sat in the examiner's seat. I know exactly what they're looking for, what causes most failures, and how marks are awarded. This insider knowledge is shared with you from day one.
Efficient learning
Average 10 hours to test-ready. We don't waste your time or money. Critical information is front-loaded so you make rapid progress from the first lesson. When you're ready, you're ready.
98% first-time pass rate
Our students don't just pass - they pass first time. This success rate speaks to the quality of instruction and preparation you'll receive. We teach exactly what examiners assess.
Honest and direct
No keeping you on for extra lessons you don't need. Your success is our priority, not maximizing lesson hours. I'll tell you honestly when you're test-ready.
Teaching philosophy
"I never shout or tell off my students. Everyone makes mistakes when learning to drive — that's how progress happens. A calm, supportive approach helps learners understand what went wrong and improve with confidence. Shouting doesn't teach; guidance does."
This isn't magic - it's strategic, focused instruction that prioritizes what matters most for test success. We cut through the noise and teach you the essential skills that examiners assess. No fluff, no wasted time, just efficient learning that gets you test-ready fast.

Absolutely fantastic driving instructor I had a lot of anxiety after failing a test with a different instructor, Dils was patient and encouraging and genuinely supportive, definitely would not have got a pass without him. 100% best instructor I've had

Dils has been the best instructor by far. He is always calm and identified my learning opportunities quite early. We worked together on fixing the issues and with his guidance I passed my driving test on the first attempt (like his other students). He's a genuinely nice guy and a brilliant instructor.

Dilesh has taught all three of my sons, and every single one of them passed their driving test first time with flying colours. He has truly been amazing throughout. One of my sons has dyslexia and struggles to focus, but Dilesh showed great patience, support, and understanding. Between all three of my sons, they completed just 22 hours of lessons in total, which also saved me a significant amount of money. I truly owe this man a lot, and I will always be grateful.

Dils was incredibly patient and really helped build my confidence. I passed first time and couldn't be happier. I definitely recommend him to anyone wanting to get their licence without wasting time or money.
