I COULD NOT have had a better driving instructor. Edina is AMAZING, she taught everything soo well and also helped me feel comfortable the whole time. She’s also sooo friendly and great to chat to so the lessons end up being super fun. I would highly recommend driving with her, I passed my test first try.
Amazing instructor. I have been through a few instructors with no luck just wasn't getting what I was looking for until edina she was so open and understanding and always pushed me. She listened to my needs and adjusted the lessons to suit my needs. She is a fantastic person and would recommend to anyone.
I couldn't have had a better instructor than Edina at Purrfect Driving School. She is so caring and supportive. Edina explains everything in a way that is easy to remember, she's calm, patient, supportive, caring and fun.
I passed my test yesterday and it's all thanks to her. I can't recommend her highly enough. She has changed my life. I now have the independence I dreamed of for me and my family.
Edina is the most incredible instructor out there! She really helped me to build confidence in myself and to trust my own decisions on the road. When I had my first lesson with her, I had already done some manual lessons but I was still very slow and apprehensive. She really took the time with me that I needed and supported me the whole way through.
She was very easy to talk to during lessons and a wonderful person who really cares about her students. Edina believed in me even when I didn't and I passed first time with only one minor and it's all thanks to Edina! I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking to learn to drive!
Amazing, incredibly skilled driving instructor and a wonderful, kind person, who loves people and CATS! 😻😻😻
I met Edina last year, after I decided I would try to learn to drive again. I had a bad experience with another instructor in the past. I thought, maybe I was not fit to be a driver but now, I see how much depends on who you learn from.
Edina is so friendly and easy-going. From the very beginning, she made me feel welcome and comfortable in her car. Strange, but it felt like I was with someone, who I knew for a very long time pretty much on our first lesson. 😊
Edina is such a lovely person and she is very fun to be around, I will miss our laughter in your car 😊
I looked forward to every lesson with Edina, she is patient and explains everything you need to know in a clear and fun way. With Edina, there were never silly questions or silly answers during the lessons and a helpful phrase she uses "don't know- don't go" will surely stay with me forever! 😊
I was an older student lacking confidence on the roads. Edina believed in me more than I was believing in myself, she gradually, with every lesson, made me feel more and more confident and relaxed whilst driving.
I passed last week on my first attempt! I couldn't be happier.
I am so grateful to Edina for all her support, patience and dedication. I know I couldn't have done it without her.
Massive thank you Edina, you are a STAR! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Learning to drive with Edina has been such an amazing experience. She is an incredibly skilled instructor but also one of the kindest people you could meet. Her patience is endless, and she has such a calming way of teaching that instantly puts you at ease.
When I first started my lessons I was very nervous about being on the road, but Edina made me feel comfortable and confident from the very beginning. She explains everything so clearly and always takes the time to make sure you fully understand before moving on. Her encouragement and unique talks before lessons and the test made such a difference, especially when the nerves kicked in!
Edina is truly an exceptional instructor and I honestly couldn’t have asked for anyone better. I’m so grateful for all her support, patience, and belief in me — I genuinely couldn’t have done it without her.
Thank you so much again, Edina! Time to celebrate the pass 🥂🚗😻
I would like to start this review for thanking Edina with all the help she gave me to pass my test first time I honestly don’t think I could have done it without her. I was really nervous when I first got in the car with her but as we kept on driving she made me feel extremely relaxed looking back at where I used to be when I had my first lesson with her she thought me so much and gave me the confidence I needed to pass my test. I’m really happy with the instructor I choose I wouldn’t have picked anyone else to teach me. 😻
Where do I start.. The most amazingly skilled and kind souled instructor there is and I’ve had over 6, so much patience and the absolute best for nerves and makes you feel so comfortable for your test with her unique pep talks. The monumental amount of knowledge for Basingstoke test routes she has makes it easy and has textbook tricks of the trade.. I can’t thank her enough I couldn’t have done it without her, time to celebrate my pass 🥂 Thanks again Edina!!!
Cannot recommend Edina enough! After years of being scared to learn after an unfriendly instructor she made me feel completely comfortable and supported every single lesson. It’s been the best thing I’ve ever done and I now love driving! She always believed in me, even when I didn’t myself and gave me all the skills and confidence to pass first time 🥳 She was always patient and took the time to explain anything I was unsure of without ever getting frustrated, it was just like driving with a friend and I’ll genuinely miss my lessons. Thankyou, I could’ve never done it without you 😻
I can't thank Edina enough for everything she taught me!
She was so understanding, and all her advices were so good! I never would've pass without her and I highly recommend her for nervous drivers.
Thank you Edina, I'll miss you!
Edina is such a fantastic instructor. She made me feel calm and relaxed in all lessons and taught in such a naturally progressive way that the next steps felt like you already knew them. Her positivity and willingness to get to know me and understand how best to teach me was unparalleled. Having had a massive gap from having a few lessons when I was a teenager to taking them now, I wasn't sure how it was going to be, but she made it so easy! Going into the test I felt confident, and her joy when I passed was only matched by mine! And I most definitely could not have done it without her help and encouragement throughout. Edina is a wonderful instructor and I would highly recommend her if you are looking to learn! Thank you millions, Edina!
I am beyond excited to share my experience with Edina!
From our very first lesson Edina made me feel comfortable behnd the wheel. Her teaching style is friendly & easy to understand, making sure I not only learnt how to be a better driver (had a couple years experience in another country) but also understood all the safty rules of the road.
What I appreciated the most was her constant encouragement. Whenever I made a mistake She was right there to help me learn from it without making me feel bad. Her positive vibes turned my nerves into excitement & I truly always looked forward to our lessons.
Edina’s passion for driving & teaching really shines through. She’s patient & dedicated to her students, which makes a huge difference & I cannot recommend Edina enough if you are looking for a driving instructor. She’s not just a teacher, she’s grown to be a friend who truly cares about my success. Thank you Edina, for helping me reach this milestone! I am truly grateful for your support.
My experience with Edina was flawless! Learning to drive with her was absolute breeze allowing me to PASS first time, and most importantly to have FUN while doing so ! Every lessons was exciting and Edina will help you through any nerves with ease ! 100% would recommend ! Thank you Edina !
Edina was so supportive, patient and informative. Best driving instructor i could’ve ever wished for and more. She is amazing at making you feel comfortable whilst having a laugh at the same time. Thank you Edina, Thank you Purrfect 10/10!!!
Edina was an outstanding instructor. I had been struggling to make progress and felt I might never be ready for my driving test. Her guidance helped me feel comfortable and confident behind the wheel, and my driving skills improved significantly as a result. I would highly recommend her—10/10!
I have to say best a driving instructor in Basingstoke. Thank you very much for supporting, teaching me how safely I have to be on roads, specially slip roads. All our lessons was in friendly- professionals atmosphere. Everything was clearly demonstrated, explained. Highly recommended to everyone, who is looking for a driving instructor. Thank you Edina , because you helped me finely ended up, and I passed my test.
I would recommend Edina to anyone who wants to learn to drive! She has a very calm and positive approach to learning and provides incredible support to build up your confidence!
I couldn’t have passed without her
Edina is an amazing instructor with such a calming and positive personality. She tailors the lessons according to your own learning pace and motivates you to learn even when you’re struggling. I was able to pass on my 1st attempt which I never thought I could do. Edina explains everything in a way that is easy for you to understand. It’s been incredible being her student and now her friend.
I would recommend Edina to everyone.
Thank you Edina!!
I’ve had such a great time learning driving from Edina and she has made it really fuss free throughout the entire journey. Couldn’t recommend her enough!
Edina has been so patient with me and I couldn’t ask for a better instructor! Always keeping me calm and believing me and also making me feel so comfortable. By far the best teacher (and friend😁) thank you so much!!
The best instructor in town nothing else needs to be said
Thank you so much, helped build my confidence with ease and without judgement, lovely woman.
Edina is an absolutely amazing driving instructor. I was quite nervous and she made me feel so relaxed and comfortable.The way she teaches makes things so clear she’s extremely patient and just makes you feel calm. I would definitely recommend her 1000% she’s brilliant.
Edina is such an amazing driving instructor! I couldn’t recommend her enough! She always stays calm and is always so positive! She is a ray of sunshine and I couldn’t have done this without her! Will miss our lessons so much!💛
Thankyou for everything Edina x
Edina is an absolutely outstanding driving instructor! From the very first lesson, she put me at ease with her calm, patient, and encouraging approach. I was quite nervous about driving, but Edina’s expert guidance and unwavering support helped me overcome my fears and build my confidence with every session. She has a real talent for explaining things clearly and tailoring lessons to suit your needs, making sure you feel comfortable and capable at every step.
I couldn’t have asked for a better teacher and would highly recommend Edina to anyone looking for a professional, kind, and genuinely fantastic instructor!
Edina is honestly one of the best teachers (not just driving) I have EVER had! She has gone at the pace I’ve felt comfortable with, while also building up my confidence. Whenever I have been unsure of anything she has really helped me to learn and grow - everything is explained clearly and she has never ever made me feel silly for asking! She is so kind and friendly, and such a lovely presence to have in the car - always putting me at my ease. I couldn’t recommend her highly enough!!
I have been on the most amazing driving journey with Edina, after having such a bad experience with another instructor.
I am an older student and struggle with anxiety. I genuinely thought I'd never feel confident being behind the wheel of a car (I saw them as killing machines 😂). But Edina was really in-tune with my needs and went at my pace, often asking if there was anything I wanted to specifically focus on, all the while making sure I was ok.
Within a short space of time my confidence had grown and I couldn't believe how comfortable I felt getting into the car to take my test.
I never felt rushed or pressured and I never felt as though she was just after my money--she has a genuine interest in people and a passion for driving (and cats 😺).
I cannot thank her enough for getting me over the finish line 🚗 and would absolutely recommend her to anyone: young or old, confident or nervous.
Looking forward to meeting for coffee ☕
Amazing instructor! Can not recommend enough. Edina made me feel so comfortable and confident when I didn’t feel confident in myself. She believed in me and helped me in everything I needed help with. Now I’m here passed and so happy! If you need an automatic instructor then this is the lady to use! 100/100! Thank you so much and I’ll see you on the roads! :)))))
You can't go wrong with Edina, can't recommend her enough.
As an older driver who has been with 3 manual instructors and 2 auto instructors here in the UK, I can confidently say she is the best experience I had. She is attentive, intuitive, and shaped the lessons to my needs which included putting me at ease and boosting my confidence, by meeting me where I was at and focusing on the skills I needed to build.
So much about learning is about how the instructor shapes the teaching style to the student, and understanding what exactly needs working on and communicating it effectively.
Edina does this and much much more, truely lovely lessons and assisted me to pass with 0 minors thanks to her highly skilled teaching style and her wonderful personality.
Book her and see for yourself.
What can I say , Edina is an incredible instructor , teacher and person !
I couldn’t recommend her more to anyone. She is so calm and kind , yet thorough in how she communicates all of the key skills you need to pass your driving test.
I’m so lucky I found her !
Edina is an amazing instructor, she turned driving from something that gave me so much dread and anxiety into a relaxing and fun experience! She is so good at making you feel comfortable and by doing so she helped me to pass first time with 0 minors. I would highly recommend Edina to anyone (especially those who find driving difficult or uncomfortable). 🚗😽
Wish I could give Edina more than 5 stars! She is truly the best! Edina is very friendly and makes you feel at ease! Really enjoyable lessons whilst being very informative.
Wouldn’t be able to pass first time without her! I will miss our lessons! 100% recommend her!
Hello future drivers, you can’t go wrong in picking Edina as an driving instructor she is amazing I was an older learner (39) and had a bad experience before so a bit of a nervous driver also, Edina was really great at putting my mind at ease and was so patient she really enjoys her role as an instructor and that comes across as she is teaching you she really wants you to succeed and become an independent driver ! I have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone and if she is still teaching when my kids need lessons they will be going with her! X
Edina is an amazing driving instructor.
I would not have been able to pass my test first time without her.
She explains everything clearly and made me feel at ease from my very first lesson with her.
I looked forward to my lessons with her every week, she is a very kind and patient person.
I would highly recommend Edina to anyone who is thinking of learning to drive 😻
Thank you Edina for being sooo kind and patient. You are truly an amazing instructor! learning to drive with you was really an enjoyable experience for me. The way you teach and explain everything is so well. I would 100% recommend her for anyone learning to drive!
As an anxious person who tends to overthink, learning how to drive at the age of 40 was a huge decision for me. My husband had a chance encounter with Edina and immediately knew she would be the perfect driving instructor for me because of her kind and friendly nature. From the beginning of my driving lessons with her, I not only learned how to drive but also how to manage my emotions that could affect my driving. She respected me as a learner and recognised that each student has unique personality and learning needs. Her driving lessons were very effective, and I learned a lot of tips and tricks that always stuck in my brain. Edina is a professional, intelligent, kind, respectful, and patient instructor. She is dedicated to ensuring that her students become safe drivers and pass their driving tests..
Passing my test on the first try was a miracle, and I couldn't have done it without Edina. I will always be grateful to you, Edina.
Edina is an amazing instructor. She is thorough, dedicated, calm and patient. From being morbidly scared of driving, I passed my test on my first attempt thanks to Edina who took the time and effort to make me feel so comfortable behind the steering wheel. Edina understood my initial reservations really well and worked with me patiently to overcome all my fear and nervousness. Thank you so much Edina ❤️🚗. You are truly a star ⭐️ You have helped me achieve a big milestone in my life!
Edina is an amazing instructor! She is so kind and patient and makes learning to drive a truly enjoyable experience. She is also great at teaching and explains everything very well. I would 100% recommend her for anyone learning to drive!
Thank you Edina for being so kind and patient with me. You\'ve done the impossible and managed to teach me (an older, nervous over thinker haha) to pass a test! I will miss our chatter!
Edina is an amazing driving instructor . Professional , patient , reliable and always positive . Thank you for teaching my son who now has his license he couldn’t be happier.
Edina is the best driving instructor around. We have had many memories in the car through highs and lows she is always positive. She has given me lots of confidence with driving and i wish her all the best in the future. Definitely will recommend to anyone wanting to learn how to drive!!! 🚗
Adina is Brilliant helped me pass in 5months only 12 lessons, I was such an anxious driver and I’ve really come out of my shell and passed 1st time ♥️ love her ! Thank you so much x
Edina has been amazing so kind and patient as I was a very anxious driver and she got me to believe in myself and pass my test I will miss our lessons.
Edina is amazing! She’s so welcoming and friendly and made every lesson enjoyable. It was a pleasure to learn to drive with her and thanks to the amazing lessons I managed to pass with 0 minors on my 1st attempt. Thank you so much Edina!
I've been putting off doing my driving test for over 15 years now because I was terrified at the whole idea of it but I finally bit the bullet and decided to start learning several months ago. I chose Edina after reading some of these reviews and I'm so glad I did.
From the very first lesson Edina was so friendly and easy to get along with, always patient, encouraging and happy to let me develop at my own pace.
I passed my test today on the first attempt and Edina played a huge part in that. I fully recommend Edina as a driving instructor and I'll miss our chats about cats and video games!
Edina is absolutely amazing ! I would recommend to everyone wanting to do automatic. She is literally the loviest and kindest instructor. She helped me pass 1st time ! She is always there to help offering support and helping with nerves . She explains everything so well ! Thank you sooo much Edina ! 🚗
Edina is an amazing instructor and very patient and knowledgeable! I would recommend her to any of my friends who need a driving license.
I was very worried doing my driving, however, with her professional manners and teaching I passed first time around.
Highly recommended
Edina is an exceptional instructor who takes the time to observe, listen and understand the driving candidate. All the driving discussions therefore are two-way and rich. Her approach consistently is to talk through the logic that supports the highway code during different scenarios, making the corrective actions very easy for the driver. I have benefitted immensely from Edina's instructions and it helped me pass without any observations noted by DVSA. Thank you Purrfect driving school, you are indeed perfect 👏🏆🙂
Edina is so wonderful! It was an amazing experiene, she is very patient and reassuring! Looked forward to every lesson! Was always so nervous but felt so much more confident thanks to her. Passed first time, highly recommend!!
Edina is such a wonderful driving instructor. I enjoyed every lesson and will actually miss them! It’s nice to have an instructor you feel fully comfortable with and makes each lesson very enjoyable.
I really can’t recommend her enough, she kept me calm but confident and I wouldn’t have been able to pass first time without her. 🚗😻
Since very beginning I knew Edina will be perfect instructor for me. I was very anxious when I started but she was very helpful, patient and kind. Gave me so much confidence which I needed the most. I was looking forward to each lesson as we have an amazing bond and lot of laugh. I would never believe I will drive one day, but I was wrong!! She put me In a place that I need to believe its going to happen and I will be a good driver. Now I know she was right. I passed my test at the first time and yea I I good driver :) thank you Edina so much for everything, you amazing instructor but more important such a lovely and funny person. I will miss you!
Edina is an incredible instructor! I was VERY nervous starting out, but Edina put me completely at ease and gave me so much confidence. She’s so easy to get along with! Super friendly and funny and I looked forward to each of our lessons. She made sure I was very well prepared for my test and thanks to her I passed first time! I can’t recommend her enough! Thank you so much Edina.
Edina honestly deserves more than 5 stars! She is a wonderful instructor - she is incredibly kind, patient, and supportive. She always took the time to explain everything in detail and make sure I understood concepts fully before moving on. Having her as my instructor has been amazing for my confidence in driving, she never let me doubt myself and always gave me an extra boost when I was struggling. I fully recommend her!
I’ve had the most amazing experience with Edina, she taught me so well and she is so friendly and kind; I am already missing our lessons 😂. Edina prepared me so well for my test I would not have been able to pass without her! 💓
Edina made me feel so comfortable and relaxed, we truly had a good laugh aswell as teaching me how to drive safely. I've been with a couple of other driving instructors an not one come close to the experience I had. Two top it all off I passed my practical test
I can't recommend Edina highly enough, from being a very nervous driver with a bad experience in a manual car to passing my test 1st time in an automatic, it has been a stressful but fun journey! Edina is so patient and explains everything so well and will go over anything as much as you need, I wouldn't have been able to pass without her lessons :)
For anyone looking to pass their driving test, I can’t think of anyone better than Edina. From the first lesson right up to the few minutes before your test, Edina is supportive and helpful. Edina provides informative feedback and is always available to offer advice. Edina puts you at ease in the car but is tough also ( she wants you to pass your test at the end of the day ) I would highly recommend Edina if planning on learning to drive. I don’t think you will find a better teacher. Thanks Edina
Edina was absolutely amazing, great fun to drive with and really patient. Top notch experience 10/10 would recommend. Was almost disappointed to pass as will miss our lessons 😂
In a very short time Edina transformed me from a nervous driver to a confident driver and today I passed my test , Edina has a great skill at being extremely professional and also making lessons fun and engaging, Edina showed a lot of patience with me and quickly eased my nerves to the point I was always looking forward to the next lesson ,, Edina fills you with confidence and every lesson you have learned something new , things you once thought was really tough she makes easy by breaking it down in a simple manner , Edina is everything you want in a driving instructor and you can really feel that she has your best interests at heart, I highly Recommend learning with Edina as she is everything you could ever want in a instructor . Thanks for all of your help Edina :)
Edina is an absolutely amazing instructor who is patient, encouraging, and incredibly knowledgeable! She helped me feel fully confident before my test by taking me on a huge variety of test routes and really went out of her way to accommodate lessons to help me reach my goal. She’s always organised and punctual for the lessons. To top it all off, every single lesson with her was an absolute delight because of her warm and inviting personality. I really can’t recommend her enough!
Edina is an amazing instructor!! She calmed my nerves instantly , is very good at explaining things to help you understand, using different techniques to help you the best way you’d personally learn.
She always is so happy, and smiling and I looked forward to every single lesson with her.she will go out of her way to help you get results and I have honestly never had passed if it wasn’t for her.

Edina is an exceptionally good instructor! She provided so much wisdom and her wealth of experience really shows through her teaching. She's patient and friendly, providing confidence but also critical feedback on areas of improvement. I always felt safe and confident behind the wheel with her teaching, by far the best instructor I could have come by. Don't think I could have passed first time without her guidance! Would definitely recommend!
Edina is super nice, understanding, calm and patient instructor. She clearly explains everything and has person oriented approach, to meet the learner's needs. She leads me every step of the way until my practical test, and through the process be became very good friends. She gave me the confidence I needed and encourage me to keep going every time I want to give up. I feel calm around her and she has a good sense of humour too. I' m so thankful, for all your hard work. You are the best Edina!
