Had an amazing experience and was able to pass on my first test due to the excellent teaching I was taught by my instructor! Definitely recommend.

I really enjoyed driving with Rafi! He’s supportive and motivating and this gives me great confidence. I passed with one minor! Thanks Rafi

My instructor Rafi was fantastic. Lessons were fun and enjoyable too. I passed first time and I don't think I could have done it without Rafi. The office staff were also very pleasant on the few occasions I needed to speak to them too.

Thank you for your help in finally getting my driving licence and therefore freedom to go wherever I want whenever I want :) Rafi is a great teacher, patient yet he does say things as they are. He went extra mile and when I approached him just a week before my exam for help he squeezed me in to his very busy schedule and made sure that I have enough lessons. Thanks to him I have passed in my first attempt with just 3 minors. Thank you very much again and be sure I will be recommending you to all my friends and family.

Thanks to again Rafi for your patience and wisdom! He was a patient instructor but also gave good, honest feedback on how to improve my driving. The videos he sent regularly helped me review driving skills even out of the lesson time. I also appreciate how he was accommodating giving last minute lessons on short notice. Most importantly he is encouraging and motivates you do better. I would highly recommend learning with him.

Still can't believe I passed at the first time. It was a long and painful journal, but I finally archived it with Rafi's great help. Much appreciated!

Rafi has been the most amazing instructor I could ever ask for. His ambition and positivity kept me going in stressful situations. He is able to keep you calm and provide good guidance without 'interfering' with your driving/journey. Rafi provided me with not only the best driving skills, but a much more positive outlook on life in general. He is a great individual, and I am sad to have passed and be leaving lessons with him.

They generally don’t come like raafi anymore legendary teacher. Really changed my whole driving experience in the best way possible.

Rafi is 100% reliable when it comes to driving. He works around you so you can do your lessons when it suits you best. He always sends me YouTube links everyday to to watch in order to practice and stay refreshed. Under his guidance I passed first time with 4 minors and he was so excited for when i passed. Rafi is 100% geninue nice guy and I would recommend him to anyone and everything.

Well well well, where can I start? Rafi is the best instructor I have ever had there is no better. He is patient but firm and boosted my confidence so much! And trust me if you put your trust in him he will not let you down. The road was bumpy (mostly for me) but I passed first time after 35 hours! He took his time, answered all my questions, showed me everything I need to know to be a SAFE driver and as he would say “took care of me”. I feel so confident on the road and if it wasn’t for his teachings I wouldn’t have the pass I have today! If you see this and you’re thinking of booking with him.. don’t think. DO! Thank you again Rafi!

i couldn’t recommend Rafi enough he is a great driving instructor he helped me fix a date for my test and helped me to work towards passing the test with only 3 minors. He gives tips that not only helped me to pass the test but that I can use when I drive for years. He is a dedicated instructor who will go above and beyond to help you achieve your goals!

Yabbadabbodoo! I pass my test today, I am over the moon and I could not do it without Rafi, which I want to thank so much.
I decided to take up driving lessons after 15 years because i wanted to drive my family with a car in the future. It was so incredibly lucky that DriveJohnson recommended Rafi to me. He is top class professional instructor, motivator and life coach and takes care of you, giving sound and firm advice to learn from your mistakes. I had 7 months of intensive driving lessons to be road aware and safe road driving to pass first time!
Rafi believed in me that I would pass my test, I could let him down for the effort he puts in. I have a lot of mutual respect for a person who cares for the people their teaching. Thanks bro you are amazing.

I am an experienced driver but new to the UK - and Mr. Rafi was able to adapt and tune the lessons to my skill level and teach me the things I needed to learn and understand, and these focused lessons helped me pass my driving test on the very first attempt! Super grateful, top stuff and whole-heartedly recommend!

I couldn’t rate Raffi enough.
I had a test booked and my previous instructor had advised me not to take it.
I wanted a second opinion and so found Raffi and he squeezed in 5 lessons before my test, to ensure I was up to scratch to pass and I did!
Raffi went above and beyond to fit me in and help me achieve this.
Not only will you learn how to drive you and feel comfortable doing so, he will keep you positive along the way.
Push - preserve until something happens ?

I thoroughly enjoyed my driving lessons with Rafi. As well as being a fantastic instructor, he is a very positive person. He has the perfect balance between being tough and being patient, which makes him a great person to learn from. Thanks to Rafi, I was able to pass my driving test after just a couple of months.

Rafi is an excellent teacher who will go the extra mile to help his students. With his great knowledge of driving, his professionalism and patience, Rafi pushed me to pass first time. I was extremely nervous when I first started to take lessons but Rafi was able to help build my confidence on the road. Extremely great full for the extra tips and videos Rafi sent me to help improve my driving.

I highly recommend Rafi as a driving instructor.

To be honest if your looking for the one of the best Driving instructor Rafi is one you could blindly take lessons from him. I just had few lessons around 4/5 lessons before my test date and I had so many serious and dangerous fault, he never said anything negative until I cleared all my mistakes
And finally i passed my test with 1minor mistake which would not have been possible without the help and support which Rafi has provided me throughout my learning period.

If you are thinking about taking his classes trust me you wont regret.

Thank you so much for your support started in January and passed my test today I could not have done this without u.

Dear Mr. Rafi

I would like thank you for being such professional yet friendly instructor while instructing me how to drive. I not only learn a lot from you and passed my test with great success and also enjoyed my lessons. Beside, doing the Pass Plus with you was very effective and built my driving skills and made me even more confident driver. Therefore, I will recommend my all friends to have their driving lesson with you. Once again, thank you very much.

Your humble student

Abdul Waheed Akbari

Rafi is an excellent driving instructor. He is patient, supportive, and resolutely good natured. I will miss our lessons, and will be forever grateful for the confidence that he has given me behind the wheel.

Great help from rafi, supported me all the way and guided me to pass. He tought me everything and eventually had great success in passing!!

I passed my driving test last week with 3 minors. Mr. Rafi is a great instructor who taught me the skills for being a safe driver. He has built the confidence in me for driving and never let me give up. Inwas a difficult learner and he always explains all the information with patience. He was always happy to schedule me for extra lessons close to exams. I would recommend him for everyone who is willing to learn driving.

Rafi takes the time to sharpen your weak areas of driving to make you the best possible driver on the road. He tests you often so by the time you do your real test your confident and find it easy.

Rafi was an absolutely brilliant teacher. He is very patient and had so many good tips to help you with manoeuvres and roundabouts etc. He always tried to go above and beyond when accommodating his students and clearly cares a lot about his students success. He is never sharp with his tone and is always positive when telling your what you need to improve on. This is why I feel he is such a good teacher. If you want an instructor with amazing experience then you should use Rafi.
Thanks to his guidance I passed first time!

Highly recommend Rafi he is patient, knowledgeable, and always made me feel at ease behind the wheel. Their clear instructions and helpful tips boosted my confidence and prepared me perfectly for the driving test. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience!

Rafi is a legend.

I had zero experience and he taught me to pass first time.

Very professional, and driven to teach well.

? recommend!!

Rafi is one of the best instructors that I have ever met. Driving with him is fun and unforgettable. He is very confident, professional and very punctual. He put confidence in you so you can drive without hesitation. I really can’t describe how much I have learned from him and how I used to enjoy the lessons. I have passed from the first time which was the most amazing thing and credits goes to him.
Thank you

A first time passer thanks to you Rafi! A massive thank you for pushing me, believing in me and being patient on the days I needed it. It’s been a memorable experience and I’ve learnt a skill for life.
I couldn’t recommend Rafi enough. THANK YOU!

Rafi is without a doubt the best instructor I have ever had. Without him I would not have been able to pass, he completely restored my confidence in driving. He not only taught me how to prepare for the test but also for driving in general in areas I was not familiar with. He’s also very flexible and works around you, often sacrificing his own free time closer to the test date. Thank you so so much Rafi for your amazing teacher and your patience. It was always a bonus we had lovely chats during our lessons!!! Wish you all the best

I passed my test first time. Rafi was really great to work with, we set a goal of passing this year, he coached me to drive and do the test when I felt ready. He is a brilliant instructor and helped me build confidence in my own ability. Would 100% recommend Rafi as an instructor

Outstanding instructor -passed 1st time. Rafi is a veteran instructor that organised a test and helped me to pass in just 3 weeks! He knows all the common mistakes that new drivers make and will fine-tune your driving so that you are confidant and safe on the road. He his a professional who I would highly recommend.

I passed on my first try thanks to Rafi! He is a great instructor and will get you where you need to go! Highly recommend.

I’ve been Rafi’s student since summer 2022 and it was certainly a bumpy ride trying to learn the rules of the road. But despite difficulties on the road, Rafi really helped me develop my road awareness and skills. He never gave up on me, even when I felt like giving up. His patience really motivated me to work harder and I definitely would recommend him to someone who is looking to pass their driving test!

First of what i would like to thank Mr Rafi for all he's effort And time that he put into teaching me how to drive . He was my first instructor and the only one, he took me from the beginning to the end and i have past test with very high results only 1 minor fault. I would truly recommend Mr Rafi to anyone who is planing on learning how to drive, he's very nice , polite and understanding, the way he explains things is very easy to understand and follow, he's a people person, make me feel comfortable from the start to the end. He believe in he's students, even if I wasn't sure that i can do it he was positive and believing i can!! Now that is all over and i got my license thanks to Mr Rafi i am very happy and pleased but at the same time kind of regret it as i will be missing the lovely chat with him. Such a amazing instructor

Sandra

Rafi is such a great instructor he's honest, patient and reliable, all the good qualities you need from your instructor and through him teaching me I was able to pass first time with one minor!

My first instructor, helped me pass first time. And I’m his first Uzbek 🇺🇿 learner.

It was really enjoyable journey, recommend him to anyone

Thank you so much Rafi. You have shown an amazing patience. It is a really hard job but he was absolutely great.I have passed with 2 minors after learning with him 1 month.. He is very calm and he explains everything very clearly with a great patience. He is a great instructor , I have learned a lot of things from him. I am so lucky we have worked together
Thanks

Rafi is a very kind and patient instructor. He pushed me to perform the best I possibly could. He taught me to believe in myself, and helped me improve my confidence. His teaching techniques are superb. I extremely advise Rafi as your driving teacher, he will ? help you succeed, and pass first time like me!! :)) thank you Rafi

I have just passed my driving test First time with 0 minors!

This is all thanks to Mr Rafi. Rafi is an absolute exemplary driving instructor, Rafi showed great knowledge, experience, patience and guidance all throughout my driving journey. I had driving anxiety which Rafi really helped me to overcome with an understanding and calm demeanour.

Rafi is an asset to Drive Johnson’s Driving School, If you are looking to pass your test with an absolute star of an instructor book Rafi with Drive Johnson today!

From my experience of taking lessons with Mr Rafi , I can only speak on the good things as there were was nothing negative. he is calm and collected and his knowledge on the roads is something I’ve never seen before. He guided me in the right direction and would always explain things in detail so I would get a better understanding. I had two instructor before I met Mr Rafi and I must say Mr Rafi is on another level when it comes to teaching people how to drive. I highly recommend anyone to take on lessons with Mr Rafi. I passed my exam first time and it wouldn’t have possible without his help .

Thank you Rafi for your patience, pearls of wisdom and Tony Robbins’ style inspirational speeches over the last 7 months. I’ll miss our chats about the world “it’s gone bananas”. Above all, thanks for helping me pass first time!

Rafi is great! He puts you at complete ease and builds your confidence really quickly. I hadn’t taken lessons in a few years and wasn’t feeling that confident and I was unhappy with my progress I had made. That completely changed having lessons with Rafi. He kept me on track and kept me positive. Thank you!

Rafi is a great instructor and a great guy to be around. Learnt so much from him while learning to drive and it always motivating you to get better and better at your driving while making sure you don't give up.

Rafi was very professional and persevered with me despite me taking a while to pick some areas up.

He didn't just teach me how to drive to pass the test, but also how to drive confidently in busy areas with many hazards.

Thanks for all the hard work!

I have passed my test from the first time with only 2 minors. All thanks to Mr Rafi who was so patient with me and made me overcome my fears . He taught me all the necessary information, explained everything patiently. Thank you Mr. Rafi

Today I passed my driving test 1st time with Rafi. I’ve never met an instructor that cares for their students the way Rafi does. When you’re at your lowest, he will always pick you back up. His support was amazing, he taught me so much and for that I’ll forever be grateful.

Hard work with Rafi made my dreams come true. I have to say, when I’ve been told that I’m not a driver material 14 years ago. Rafi changed my mind set and made me believe again.

"I would like to thank Mr. Mohammad Rafi Amiri for his professional instruction and unique skills in identifying driving learners’ weakest points and his driving lessons planning and implementation.

Within 10 minutes of my initial drive with Mr. Amiri he identified my weak points, developed a learning plan and gave me an accurate estimation of time, number of lessons to pass the driving test on the first attempt.

I found him a very punctual and flexible instructor. We had a very good communication throughout the driving lesson. He is a very experienced person, so every seconds of time with him is of a very high value. He has a lot to share with you, be it a social integration, professional/career, cultural/religious or any other topic. Get your driving lessons and much more for free!

I passed my driving test on the first attempt and got a clear sheet with not mistakes.

Thank you once again Mr. Amiri and wish you all the very best.

Best regards, Yama"

is is my feedback about Rafi who has helped me sail safely through driving and succeeding in my practical driving test on my first attempt.
Rafi is a people's person. He interacts very well and paid attention to my personal driving needs and was able to tailor my lessons to my specific needs and lead to my success. Rafi always dresses very professionally and that shows someone who is professional and takes pride in what he does. He's also got a very good sense of humour and that helps relieve the tension from driving. Rafi never forces his agenda , but rather listens very carefully and works together to achieve the goal.He is always very calm, disciplined, and never loses his cool.He is also very encouraging and he believes in the ability of his student and I felt that trust was so important for my learning and success.I really like his notes and they are very simple and easy to understand and very relevant. His teaching about using the youtube has proven very helpful inlearning techniques and be safe on the road. I would recommend Rafi to anyone who seriously wants to learn and become a safe driver.In my opinion he is the best driving instructor.

Manju

I appreciate Rafi for his calmness, patience and encouragement. Rafi always made sure that he spared all his time to help work on the areas i was struggling with during my training. After every lesson, Rafi would record where i need to put all my strength and energy to fix in my next lesson. And once he was happy with that, then he would move me to another chapter of the lessons. In that way, i kept learning and building my confidence. He would see my losing hope sometimes, but he made sure he encourages me to continue working hard knowing i will pass. Am so happy to pass my test today 2nd time.

Test tip of the month for Hanwell

Be sure to secure the car first so it doesn't roll into a new road or roll back. Then restart quickly and safely. Check it's safe to move away again as well. If somebody is going round you, you may want to wait for them to pass first.

Useful driving test tip for Hanwell

When you are on the independent driving part of the test, it's common to miss your mirrors and signalling when listening to and following the satnav. Remember, every time you hear a new direction, be prepared to check your mirrors and put a signal on if needed.

Frequently asked questions...

What happens on my first driving lesson in Hanwell?

Your driving instructor in Hanwell will ask you about your previous experience. If you have not had any previous lessons, that is fine as many people have not had any previous experience. During this chat, your driving instructor will also go over the basics of the car, and they will do an eyesight check and check your provisional licence.

Once this is done, your instructor will begin your driving lesson in a quiet area. They will cover moving off and stopping, clutch control, the different pedals and how to steer. You will always begin in a quiet area away from cars and other road users to learn at your own pace.
