I had a great experience learning with Mr Mirzo. he is patient, knowledgeable, and explain things clearly. Thanks to you guidance, I feel confident and well-prepared on the road. Highly recommended!
I had a great experience with Galaxy Driving Academy. Mr. Mirzo is an amazing instructor, very understanding, knowledgeable and supportive. He helped me build my confidence while driving and I’m very grateful for such great guidance. I would absolutely recommend for anyone looking how to drive.
I have been with another instructor previously and the difference since contacting Mr Ali has been huge. Mr Ali is such a patient instructor and will be with you from the start to the very end. He helped me gain confidence behind the wheel and helped me pass my driving test on the first try. I am soo happy and thankful for Mr Ali’s efforts.
Very calm very patient
A big mention to Ali for his patience and fantastic help for giving me the confidence and support helping me to pass my test. Thanks for everything. Highly recommended.
I could not have asked for a better driving instructor! I passed my test on the first attempt with only two minor faults, and that is absolutely down to the quality of instruction I received.
Right from the start, I appreciated how patient and supportive he was. He created a fantastic learning environment by giving me the space to think and process instructions without constantly taking over the wheel. This approach built my confidence incredibly fast.
Lessons were always encouraging and even fun! His positive attitude made the whole process much less stressful. He gave genuinely great advice that was easy to implement, focusing on safety and precision.
I am getting my lessons from Ali.
He is a great instructor with great mentoring qualities. His methodology to introduce every step of driving is great.
Ali Mirzo is a great instructor. He is very patient when it comes to teaching and helped me passed my practical test in first attempt!
I had an amazing teacher and with out his help I wouldn’t pass my exam.
Ali was a very supportive and patient instructor. I had tried driving lessons previously and had to give up but I found lessons with Ali easy and fun. We worked methodically through each competency and after 4 months I was pass ready and passed first time. Recommend!
Ali was amazing at helping me build my confidence to pass first time, we always had fun during our lessons and this helped put me at ease when driving. He gave helpful advice and I felt confident that I was able to ask him questions and to get a reply that will help me become a better driver. Ali is very understanding! - thank you!!
Ali wasn’t just a driving instructor—he was a constant source of strength, patience, and encouragement throughout my entire journey. He taught me far more than driving techniques; he helped me believe in myself, even on the days when I felt like giving up. His feedback was always honest yet uplifting, and his support never wavered, not even once.
For two years, he stood by me through every struggle, every setback, and every small victory. When I finally passed my test, it felt like our achievement, because he was there with me every step of the way.
I am forever grateful for his kindness, dedication, and the genuine care he showed. Having him as an instructor—and as a truly loving and supportive friend—is something I will always cherish.
Ali was with me every step of the way until I passed the test. He gave me efficient techniques to carry out required manoeuvres and useful feedback during and at the end of lessons. Ali always tried to give me positive encouragement every time I felt a bit down about my driving.
