Jondi

I had two driving instructors from National Driving Academy and both were wonderful, creating a safe and friendly environment for learning. Their different teaching styles helped me progress my skills and have the confidence to be on the road and eventually complete the one off driving test.

Kathleen

I can't recommend Babar highly enough! I thought that I would be able to teach my daughter everything, but Babar's professional, calm and knowledgable approach ensured that my daughter is equipped to be able to drive in any situation with the correct skills. He minimised any anxiety she had and his approachable nature ensured that she was comfortable and able to absorb all of the information and guidance he was providing. Don't think twice...make a booking with NDA and Babar is your man!

Maisy

I had a great experience with my driving instructor Barbar, he was friendly, patient and relaxed.

Sally

I have been driving with Babar for quite awhile now. I absolutely hated driving , because I was never good at it. And to be quite frank i lost all hope. I had a few driving instructors in the past and unfortunately they were too impatient with me. I was so close to giving up on driving... until i met Babar. He is just so patience and extremely professional ! On our first lesson he told me that he would never give up on his students. And to be honest i didn’t believe him at first. I thought he would be “one of those impatient “ driving instructors again. Oh, i was so wrong! It is so worth the money! I highly recommend Babar! You will not be disappointed!

Bethany

I needed to get my au pair from Italy familiarised with driving on the left-hand side. I booked three sessions for her and was really pleased with approach Babar took. He was punctual, professional and provided me great feedback on the lesson progression, her competencies and what requirements she'd have to fulfil to meet international licence and insurance. I'll be using him for the au pair!

Emily

Driving with National Driving Academy was a pretty good experience. The transitioning into each logbook competency was well explained at most times and it was evident what was expected in each lesson. The car was smooth, controlled and comfortable and the instructor was always calm even in times of distress.

Regina

I highly recommend Babar. Throughout my time driving with him, he had taught me an abundance of knowledge and delivered it in a patient, considerate and effective way. From my experience, he provided helpful tips and tricks that have truly shaped me to become a safer and more 'assertive' driver. Particularly, he provided me with specific feedback on areas for improvement at the end of each lesson, which were revisited and revised the following lesson. I found this really helpful and saw drastic improvement in my driving in just 10 lessons. With Babar's help I have gained much more confidence in my driving that will last a lifetime!

Great comprehensive instructor :)

David

I am a mature age student who had to regain my licence after years of not driving. Having lost much confidence, Joe was brilliant at making me feel comfortable in the driving seat again, and certainly improved the quality of my driving. He is friendly, helpful and, indeed, fun, yet at the same time he doesn't let you get away with any slopping work behind the wheel, which is just what a conscientious student should want. Safety is his priority, and he made me much more aware of issues which in the past I had come to take for granted. So, I'm very pleased with his instruction and guidance. I would very strongly recommend him. Thank you Joe!

Cleo

Mushtaq

I have had a great experience with the National Driving Academy while taking the driving lessons. I found my driving instructor, Mr Babar Chohan, exceptionally talented, logic centered, highly professional and accommodating who encourages a learner ‘how to think ‘ as opposed to ‘what to think’. Thank you, Babar, for being the best instructor ever! With your deep insight, guidance and patience you taught me the skills to become a confident and safe driver. Thank you for giving me the confidence to drive and for helping me to overcome my subconscious under- and over-analysis whilst behind the wheel. Your lessons were very informative, well-structured (both in theory and practice) and I really appreciated your encouragement. A big thank you to Babar for being very patient, understanding and good motivator. Babar definitely ranks among top 1% of my list.

Shontae

I highly recommend Babar and National Driving Academy! The service is beyond a 5 star rating, Babar is an outstanding instructor, considerate, patient and made me feel very calm, confident and comfortable when we would have a driving lesson. I’m so grateful to have accomplished this with Babar as he was supportive and helpful in getting me through the competencies to end up with a positive result of getting my P’s. Thank you Babar!

Very nice man and a very good driving instructor.

Rory

Saif is a very informative instructor, he knows the road rules very well and is able to teach his student with ease. He is also very talkative so your not just sitting in silence you can have a genuine conversation with him. Saif will observe your driving and give positive feedback on how you can improve for this is the reason I chose Saif as my instructor and I don’t regret it. If you are a learner driver I would 100% recommend Saif for a good experience learning the road.

James

Knowledgeable, patient instructor. Would highly recommend!

Imalshi

Saif was a very friendly, knowledgeable and thorough instructor. I learnt all road rules and parking quickly and efficiently with him. He is amazing at teaching the basics of driving and makes sure you understand the concepts properly before moving on. I enjoyed and learnt a lot in all of my lessons with him. I highly recommend him for everyone wanting to get their license :) Thank you Saif!!

Holly

Really supportive instructor. Made me feel very comfortable despite my nerves.

Alexandra

Babar was a really great instructor, who always explained each competency and rule, stepping me through so I clearly understood the standard I was required to achieve and how to achieve it.
He was always friendly, approachable and calm. I looked forward to each lesson and I will miss his guidance.

Hugo

Great instructor. Took time to explain each road rule with precision and patience until I clearly understood the road rule. The diagrams he used great and helped significantly when trying to implant a visual concept of the task/road rule. I especially liked the way he described how to reverse parallel park, which was simplistic and straightforward yet incredibly effective and understandable. I think his patience and good personality were the beat part of having him as an instructor. Have already recommended to other learners.

Joseph

I am so very grateful to have had Babar Chohan be my driving instructor and would 100% recommend him to anyone that is in need of a driving instructor in the Canberra region. Babar was always very punctual, professional and extremely patient.
Having been taught by Barbar with his exceptional knowledge and expertise, I was able to obtain my provisional drivers license. Thank you Babar for all of your help and support, and for making me the confident driver I am today!
