Learning with Tony was quick, simple and easy and when I passed after 20 hours it felt amazing.

Tony Mills is a fantastic instructor and he is someone who I would recommend to everyone in the Canterberry area. If you want to learn to drive an automatic car in Canterberry then choose Tony and you won't regret it

After making over 20 calls and being told everywhere was fully booked I managed to get a lesson booked with Drivejohnsons and since then I have had lessons weekly with my instructor Tony Mills. He is a very good instructor, I would recommend him to anyone.

Loved every minute of my lessons, would recommend Drivejohnsons to anyone (:

Tony Mills is superb at being not only an instructor but also as a person, he cares and he helps and he is the best teacher I have ever had. I am so proud to have had him as my teacher when I learnt to drive and I am so happy to have passed with him.

It was great to learn with Tony and I am so happy that he helped me to pass on my first attempt! Thank you Tony

Tony is fantastic I was struggling to learn to drive a manual but then I switched to automatic with Tony and it made everything so much simpler. His way of teaching is amazing and I can't rate him high enough

Tony is a great teacher and I learnt extremely quickly with him and managed to pass after just 20 hours. Couldn't be more pleased. Thank you so much Tony!! :)

I always wanted to pass my driving test and thanks to Tonys incredible teaching I was able to pass in Tonys automatic after 30 hours of amazing lessons.

Mr Mills is an amazing instructor, he was able to keep me calm and distilled confidence in me. I wouldn't have passed if it wasn't for him. Thank you so much for all your help Tony.

Tony Mills is a very calm, patient and excellent instructor. He broke everything down into easy to understand pieces and I was able to pass at my first attempt. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for an instructor in the ASHFORD or Folkestone area.

Brilliant teaching and always made me feel at ease when we were out on the road. It helped that Tony talked to me about football and other topics I was interested in as it put me at ease and helped me to learn at my own pace.

My faith in driving was given back to me by learning with Tony, I never thought I would be able to drive and then it was broken down to me by Tony and I am so thankful for that as it was what I needed in order to pass.

Tony is a great instructor, helped me pass quickly and first time with just 2 minors. Would definitely recommend, thanks Tony.

I was able to get an early test after passing my theory and thanks to Tony I got ready in less than 10 hours of lessons and was able to pass my early test with just three minors.

I had a great time learning to drive with Tony and was very pleased to pass my test at the first attempt.

He is very reliable, knowledgeable and patient, as well as possessing a grand sense of humour. With his emphasis on practising good 'roadsense', he teaches important driving skills over and above what is required to pass one's test.

I have no hesitation in recommending him as a great person to learn to drive with.

I had failed my test six times with two different driving schools but then I was recommended to learn with Tony in his automatic with driveJohnson's and it was incredible. He knew what I needed to learn and was able to help me change my life around and now I am able to go and buy my own car.

Tony is extremely knowledgable, skilled and patient. Couldn't have asked for a better driving instructor and I had a lot of fun learning to drive. Tony helped me pass my test first time around which I never thought I'd be able to do, thank you Tony!

Tony was a phenomenal instructor and thanks to his great teaching I was able to pass first time and after only 25 hours of lessons.

I passed first time!! :D Can’t wait to get on the road now in my own car.

Thank you so much for all of your help Tony, you were great at helping me to ace my driving and getting my head around all of the manoueveres.

My instructor Tony has been fantastic he is always on time and makes our lessons enjoying and most importantly very informative.

Tony Mills is an inspiration as a person and I am so glad to have not only met him but also have been taught by him. I am so thankful to have had him teach me and to have passed with him is a great feeling

I really enjoyed learning to drive with Tony, would definitely recommend :)

I'd had lessons before with 2 different instructors and wasn't happy with my lessons, I decided to change driving school to drive johnsons and they put me with Tony as my instructor. So happy and grateful that I got to learn with Tony, don't think I could've done it with any other instructor. Cheers Tony!

Test tip of the month for Hythe

It's a classic, but many learners think they should offset their mirrors, so they have to move their head more during the test. You should be able to check your mirrors by moving your eyes - not your head. The examiners are trained to look out for eye checks rather than head movements. Moving your head may cause the examiner to think your mirrors are not set up correctly.

Useful driving test tip for Hythe

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

Where is my closest test centre?

When you take driving lessons in Hythe, you will need to travel to another location to take your driving test. Luckily all of our driving instructors in Hythe are test route specialists, and they can help you pass with confidence.

When choosing a driving test centre, your closest one is Folkestone, then Canterbury and Ashford. When learning with one of our grade-A instructors, you will be shown the test routes and potential hazards before the day of your test.

What happens on my first driving lesson in Hythe?

Your driving instructor in Hythe 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.
