Generations of Experience
Meet Your Lead Instructor: Mohammod Islam
A Lifetime of Driving Expertise (Since 1993)
Experience is the best teacher, and I have been in the driver’s seat for over three decades. I passed my first car test in Rhyl, North Wales, back in 1993. Since then, I haven’t just been a driver — I’ve been a lifelong learner, sitting multiple professional driving and instructor exams across various vehicle categories.
Because I have been a test candidate myself many times, I understand the pressure first-hand. I use this empathy to help my students stay calm, focused, and confident behind the wheel.
The “Human Sat-Nav” of Bradford
Before becoming a DVSA Approved Instructor in 2014, I spent years serving the Bradford community in public transport:
-
London & Bradford Bus Specialist: Started with City of London Buses before moving to Bradford. I’ve driven every bus route operating from the Bradford depot.
-
Pioneer in School Safety: Part of the team that introduced the UK’s first Yellow School Buses in Halifax and Bradford, giving me invaluable experience with young drivers and a commitment to road safety.
What this means for you: I know Bradford inside out — from the busy hubs of Thornbury and Heaton to tricky shortcuts and test-route roundabouts, there isn’t a road I don’t know intimately.
Specialist in Nervous Learners & Road Safety
My teaching approach is based on the belief that high-quality instruction should be accessible to everyone. Bradford presents unique driving challenges, and I am passionate about helping young drivers develop safe, confident habits from the start.
My Promise to You:
-
Patience First: I specialize in nervous learners, offering a calm, non-judgmental environment where mistakes are just steps toward success.
-
Test Route Mastery: We don’t just drive — we master the junctions and “hidden” challenges used in Thornbury and Heaton test centres.
-
Modern Learning: Learn in a high-standard manual car equipped with dual controls for safety and comfort from your very first lesson.
