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

It was really enjoyable journey, recommend him to anyone

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

Rafi is a legend.

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

Very professional, and driven to teach well.

? recommend!!

I'd like to thank him for helping me pass my test with three minors. He was nice enough to explain things over and over again for me and helped me a lot in avoiding mistakes in driving.

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.

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

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 was off the highest quality, very attentive to detail on the road, very patient and making sure you learn everything possible for your test whilst making you feel comfortable behind the wheel. Everything was very quick and smoothly done from the first lesson to the test day. I couldn’t ask for a better driving instructor to get my license.

Rafi is an excellent instructor. Couldn’t have ask for anyone better. I never drove before and learning to drive was a very scary for me , but he made this whole journey very enjoyable and I’m happy to say that I have passed in first go with only one minor!!

Rafi was great ! Very friendly but also firm when I made a mistake which is the perfect balance. He keeps the car clean and is always on time. I passed the practical test on the first attempt with him !

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! I passed with 0 minors!

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.

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 ?

Rafi is a patient and nice instructor. I was a very nervous when start driving, but it got improved gradually with Rafi’s guidance.
I passed my test recently, without his professional advice I wouldn’t be able to pass the test within a short period of learning time.
Thank you Rafi and good luck for the future!

Rafi has been an excellent instructor. I started off very nervous after having tried driving lessons (and not progressing) almost ten years earlier and Rafi managed to give me my confidence back. I passed first time. He is honest and really helped me to identify and focus on areas of development and pushed me to achieve a first time pass with only 2 minors. Full credit to Rafi for getting me through it!

Mr. Rafi is an instructor with loads of expreince and many commendable qualities, he is always clam,patient, punctual and the best quality of all is that he is a WONDERFUL person.

He is always ready to help in scheduling a class even on a short notice.
He pays close attention to all your faults during the lessons and ensures these are acted upon and rectified in the next lesson.
He helps you build your confidence and ensures you develop the "Never Give Up" attitude.

A shout out to all learners out there grab Rafi as you instructor and guarantee yourself a licence.

Thank you very much for helping me pass my test.

Rafi's professionalism and passion for his work were evident throughout my lessons. His well-structured plans, insightful feedback, and experienced instruction significantly contributed to my skill development and boosted my confidence. I also thoroughly enjoy our friendly chats along the journey. Thanks to Rafi, I passed my driving test on the first attempt. I highly recommend him to anyone seeking an excellent instructor for a successful learning and testing experience.

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 an exceptional instructor, displaying remarkable patience and a unique ability to adapt his teaching to suit each individual's needs. I successfully passed my driving test with just two minors, and I am profoundly grateful for his unwavering commitment and dedication to teaching.

I was blessed to have worked with Mr Rafi as he helped me to adapt my driving skills to the UK requirements in just a few weeks of practice. He is very knowledgeable and experienced. We also had great fun as he was very calm, commented on mistakes in a very polite and patient way. “Well done”, - as he used to say so I’m saying this to him now that I passed the test first time! Thank you!

Mr Rafi helped me build my confidence, be a vigilant and safe driver. He is extremely supportive and a blessing to learn from. Passed in southall test centre with 5 minors.

"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"

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 .

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!

Rafi is such an amazing instructor, he never gave up on my driving even though I’m very impatient. He thought me how to drive from scratch and was very supportive. I would definitely recommend him to everyone.

Passed in my first try!!! A very big thank you to my instructor Rafi who taught me so well and helped me to be confident. Couldn't have done it without his guidance. So pleased I chose driveJohnson's!

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!

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.

Passed first time..I can’t thank Mr RAFI enough for all the help he has given..he brought the best out of me..made me feel more confident about my driving. Not only that but no matter if you made any mistakes, he still encourages you and make sure you learn from the mistakes you did!

I'm so thankful to him for all the lessons and support he has given me! I DEFINITELY RECOMMEND ..BEST INSTRUCTOR.

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.

For the past 6 months Rafi has not only taught me how to drive but also taught me valuable life lessons. He’s an excellent instructor with so much passion and patience. He never got tired of showing me the same things if I have forgotten and always believed in me till the very end. Even on the day of my exam I still didn’t believe in myself but Rafi knew deep inside that I would pass and I passed first attempt with only 4 minors. He always sent me links and video clips to help me along!

Don’t think about it, just book with Rafi you will never regret your decision!

Rafi was a great help in me passing my test after having a break from trying for 3 years! He made sure I never gave up and drove with a goal in mind!

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.

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 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.

If you are starting your search for the right driving instructor, look no further!!! I had a great experience with Drive Johnson's, from the first phone call, throughout all my lessons and the final test - they were truly professional. My instructor Raffi was great! He really put me at ease when learning and made sure I was ready for my test, passing first time!!

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.

THANK YOU RAFI! I have passed with 2 minors after learning with Mr Rafi for 2 months. He is an outstanding instructor, with great patience but did not sugar coat things, and helped me to reach my goal realistically. Our lessons were productive and enjoyable, I have learned a lot from Rafi. He is a great mentor, not only with driving matters but with life in general. I cannot recommend Rafi enough!

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

5 stars for Rafi is not enough. I had one of my best experience in my life. It’s not just learning how to drive, he is one of the best. The instructor who tailoring your lessons just for you and that’s a skill/talent.
Can’t thank you enough Rafi. All those things that I heard about you were true. Great and enjoyable way to learn driving. Also life lessons, laughter. Honestly can’t put it in words, you should experience it for yourself.
There’s a reason for all the excellent reviews.

Thank you again and wish you and your family all the best. You are a great person.

I had some experience from driving in another country, but Rafi helped me get rid of all the bad habits I brought with me and can happily say I passed my test today first time. Would 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

M.Rafi is an excellent instructor. He helped me pass with 1 minor in my driving test. Firstly, he is very dedicated to ensuring his students pass and regularly sends YouTube videos with driving to help improve your weaknesses in driving. He always gives clear instructions during driving lessons and always maintains a calm and positive attitude even when you doubt yourself. These qualities make him a great instructor. Some of my favourite motivational quotes from M.Rafi are: "Practice does not make perfect but PERFECT PRACTICE makes perfect" and "There is no shortcut to success". I would like to thank him for making the effort of travelling far distances for my weekly lessons as I live far to where he was originally teaching, he is very dedicated and will never, ever give up on you. He also taught my sister, this helped us learn from each other and made us more confident drivers. I am very thankful to M.rafi because now i have achieved a new skill and i will be able to use this skill for life and be safe on the roads. Highly recommended.

I had a very postitive and succesful experience whilst learning how to drive with Quick pass driving school. I managed to learn and master all manoeuvres in a very short period of time aswell as general driving due to the thorough and consistent teaching. This resulted in me passing my driving test first time round with only 2 minors, I am very grateful for quick pass driving school and I highly recommend all new drivers and learners to use quick pass driving school.

Bosid Karim

Thank you for all the information you taught in a short period of time. It was pleasure to prepare with 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!

After a negative experience with a previous instructor I didn’t think I would ever enjoy driving. My confidence in the car was at an all time low, but after beginning lessons with Rafi that all started to change.
He was patient, honest, amazingly encouraging, and just an all round lovely person. He made me feel at ease straight away and made learning to drive fun and positive. He helped me build my confidence on the road and I feel so grateful for that.
He was always on time, incredibly knowledgable and knew exactly what we needed to work on from the previous lesson. I ended up passing with just 1 minor, which I could not have done without him!
I can’t recommend him highly enough!
Thank you Rafi!
*BEST INSTRUCTOR EVER!!*

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.

Useful driving test tip for Brentford Show more

Useful driving test tip for Brentford

There are elements of the driving test where the examiner is more forgiving than others. A few things they are not forgiving on are the following: poor observations, judgement at junctions such as roundabouts, lane discipline and following other vehicles too closely. These sorts of problems, if they go wrong, usually lead to serious car accidents. Make sure your judgement and lane discipline is good, that you do your observations and follow other vehicles at a reasonable distance!
