Mahtab
MANUAL & AUTOMATIC IN North & North West London
I teach in a VW Polo in Mill Hill, Hendon, Barnet, Borehamwood, Edgware, Finchley & Muswell Hill.
I love my job because I get the opportunity to help people build confidence and independence on the road. Seeing my pupils progress and achieve their goals is incredibly rewarding.
Don’t just focus on controlling the car — focus on planning ahead. Good drivers are always looking well ahead, spotting hazards early, and giving themselves plenty of time to react calmly and safely.

What I love about being a driving instructor is how rewarding it is to help people gain such an important life skill, all while enjoying the flexibility of managing my own schedule.
My top tip is to get to know the car’s controls, avoid distractions, and build confidence by practising in different areas. Stay calm, listen to your instructor, and learn from your mistakes.

I really enjoy teaching and developing a new skill with my pupils. Being present when you pass your test is an amazing feeling, knowing I’ve helped changed someone’s life in some way for the better.
My top tip is don’t rush into a situation, take your time, set you and the car up ready to deal with what you are driving though at that time, and don’t hold onto negative situations learn from them and move literally forwards.

I passed my driving test in Cambridge with Stuart, and I couldn’t be happier! He is an excellent instructor — calm, clear, and very supportive. It took a few tries because I was an experienced driver and I had to forget years of bad habits, but Stuart was patient and he got me through it.

Great driving instructor. Great to get along with and learnt lots! Had Kate as my instructorPosted on J YUTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I passed my driving test this morning in Letchworth! I couldn't recommend my driving instructor, Jerry Agorsor, more. While I'm generally stressed, he's incredibly patient, knowledgeable, kind, and professional. When I got a surprise test slot only a week before my test, I was panicked. He managed to find some time for me and gave me two extra training sessions beforehand. Thanks to his professional and patient teaching, I passed! I highly recommend Jerry to anyone who wants to pass the driving test. He will be the one to help you get the license!
