I took several lessons with Ms Rofeda to prepare for my test. She prepares you incredibly well for the driving test and knows exactly what examiners are looking for. I just passed my test in Raheny, and I couldn’t have done it without her. She is professional, very sweet, and really helps build your confidence behind the wheel. Highly recommended!

I had a great experience with the driving school from start to finish. The quality of the service was excellent, everything was well organised, punctual, and professional. Bogdan was patient, clear in their explanations, and always focused on helping me improve.

What was really impressive was how closely the lessons matched the actual driving test. The routes we practiced, the manoeuvres, and even the small details around observation and positioning were extremely accurate compared to what I encountered on the day of the test.

I went into the test feeling fully ready and I passed on my first attempt. I would highly recommend this school to anyone looking for thorough preparation and high-quality instruction.

Igor has been my instructor for the past year. Thanks to his help I passed on my first attempt in Finglas today! A really good teacher, really calm with first time drivers and a great communicator of information. 100% would reccomend Igor.

I completed 12 EDT lessons with Ioan and would highly recommend him. He was extremely patient, supportive, and always helpful throughout. He’s very knowledgeable and experienced when it comes to driving and understanding the test requirements. It’s clear that he genuinely cares about his students and goes above and beyond to ensure they’re practicing the correct techniques, especially in the areas where their test is likely to take place.

I have completed my BE C D and CE driving training with ISM.

I started with my BE in 2022 with Ger and I must say he was an absolute gent, extremely patient and helpful, which helped me pass first time.

I moved on to my C licence in June 2025 which I also completed with Ger and again he was an absolute gent, so patient and helpful. He made sure I knew everything I needed to before the test, both theory and practical driving. Thanks to Ger I was so relaxed going into my test which I passed in August 2025.

In September 2025 I started my D lessons after just 3 lessons I passed my test first time. The gent I done my lessons with retired just after I completed my test which was a shame.

In October 2025 I started to do my CE lessons with Laszlo. Laszlo is an amazing instructor. He has so much patience and knowledge. He knows how to put you at ease during the lessons and build confidence. I done one CE lesson with David O Carroll who was an absolute gent to work with. He was another amazing instructor to drive with. He knows how to make you feel relaxed and confident behind the wheel, which is what helped me pass my artic test first time in January 2026.

All of the instructors I worked with were absolute gents. They have so much knowledge and patience. They make you feel so relaxed. It’s an amazing team of instructors and I would highly recommend working with them.

The only downside to dealing with ISM is it is clearly a business, all the company wants to do is make money which you can’t blame them but it can make you feel an unnecessary awkwardness. The instructors clearly care and do their jobs well but one instructor in particular was big into pushing for more lessons which I don’t think were needed. When I done my bus lessons during the first one everything I done was “perfect” but I still needed 2 more lessons which also went “perfect” with nothing needing to be fixed. I had just passed my rigid test so I was use to large vehicles and I was still in test mode. Those 2 extra lessons definitely weren’t needed but look I did enjoy them.

The call takers in the office were very helpful but they are definitely the biggest pushers to make as much money for the company as possible and it’s very obvious and definitely made me feel really uncomfortable when dealing with them. I had lost 30 minutes off of my 1 hour pre test for my artic test because the instructor wasn’t available before this time which was okay but I had to make an issue out of it to receive a €15 discount off of a €275 fee. This was after spending over €4000 getting all of my lessons in all the categories, it was clear I was just euro signs in their eyes. This is the only downside to ISM. The one thing I would recommend to combat this is purchase your lessons online and just call to book in using your purchased credits.

Passed 1st time, I suppose kind of like their adverts about a 90% rate. The instructors are excellent, overall, have to say. They have lots of resources, and so are well equipped and organised.
Shout out to Stelios, Laszlo, Christ, Kevin, Joe, and also to Deco, why not?

I did the Approved Driving Instructor course with ISM and really enjoyed it. I was apprehensive at the start but Karl, Dave, and Richie aswell as all reception staff put me at ease. The comprehensive information pack was easy to follow and because of that and the professionalism of all the staff especially Dave at stage 3 I passed all the RSA exams with the final stage done today and I'm on my way for my registration to go through
Would highly recommend it

Hi Team,

I just wanted to share some feedback following my first lesson today with Dave McCormack.

Dave was absolutely amazing, his approach instantly made me feel comfortable and confident. What stood out the most was how clearly he broke everything down into simple, detailed steps. He explained not just the “how,” but the “why,” which really helped me understand and stay calm behind the wheel.

I genuinely appreciated his patience, clarity, and supportive style. Looking forward to continuing this journey with his guidance!

Kind Regards

Jakson
