Oxford DVSA Driving Test Centre

I successfully passed my practical driving test with Fayyaz yesterday. I'm confident that his professionalism as an examiner greatly contributed to my success on the second try. He subtly noted my minor mistakes, ensuring I didn't get overly stressed. What's the level of seriousness expected from other examiners? I strongly recommend having more examiners like Fayyaz at the Oxford driving center to alleviate the pressure and stress for those taking the driving test.

I passed my test first time with only four minors. Thanks to Derek for making me comfortable behind the wheels. The driving test can be incredibly daunting but it greatly helps if you examiner eases up the atmosphere in the car.

I had a great experience with Fayyaz this morning. He was a calming influence and helped me feel at ease so that I could drive my best for the test.

Claire is a great examiner. I had what was one of the worst drives of my life during the test and she tried her best to calm my nerves and did a great job. I didn't pass, but to be perfectly honest I didn't deserve to.

My experience is good, at the age of 36 I was giving my driving test and was nervous at the start and did slight minor at the start but after these minor I was more stressed but the examiner ( an**) is not at all putting pressure, giving instruction correctly and loudly, she is perfect at her Job, few thing want to share may be help1.after 5 min drive try to become settle if required have few words with Examiners to make you relax and driving like the natural way of driving. You have stop thinking of what examiner will say ?is this minor ? do i fail? What road user will say? Forgot about everything focus and concentrate, I would say always think that the motorcycle is following you and keep pretending & checking mirror like is he still following. ( just my thought)2. The entry and exit to dvla is narrow make sure you practice something like this3. At entry of DVLA side walk is slightly hidden and you have to bit carefully while coming out of gate

Had a great experience with Fayyaz. The result reflected a fair assessment.

I took my test with Brian and passed this week. I was very nervous starting the test, but he was so kind and helpful that I soon relaxed. Just three minors, which were explained clearly at the end and I hope to learn from my mistakes. Thank you so much Brian.

Passed my exam here in the early October this year under a heavy rain and very unpleasant weather. Took exam on my own car and didn't experience any issues with the examiner, she was very polite and inclusive, during driving we even had a nice chat.The route from my perspective is really hard with very tough round-o-bouts, it is really easy to make a major fault when doing them.I'm experienced driver with foreign licence and have about 5000miles UK roads experience, but it still took me 4 tries to pass.

I waited in the hall 5mins. Test started almost on time. Claire was very calm, had a good smile on her face. She noticed I was getting nervous and was calm, reassuring, spoke clearly, repeated the directions when I had ? Mark on my face due to the noise outside, and I would say was very helpful in me clearing the test. I wish all the examiners were this considerate and understanding of the learner drivers.She made my day.

I'm really grateful that Fayyaz was the assessor on my test this morning. I was incredibly anxious, but he was an extremely calming presence with great communication. He was very patient as I chatted nonstop! He made the experience so much better than previous ones.
