Learning to drive with Hojjat was a positive and rewarding experience. His teaching methods were effective, and he patiently explained difficult manoeuvres. I'm thankful for his guidance throughout my lessons.

I couldn't ask for anything more with Bene; she is a wonderful instructor. She knows exactly what she is talking about and has a variety of techniques for nervous drivers.

Just wanted to thank you again... really happy!
I can’t thank Ifty enough for helping me to pass my test first time. Ifty is really experienced so knows exactly what it takes to pass and has excellent judgement as to when you are ready to take the test. Ifty strives for perfection in every lesson so this left me more than ready for my test. I was actually surprised how confident I felt on the day of the test. Ifty taught me how to drive well not just how to drive in order to pass the test. Thanks again Ifty!

Susanna was a great instructor and taught me from the beginning to help me pass first time with only 14 hours of lessons and one minor.

Best instructor ??From beginning to end he was super balanced, always with a plan to follow through, super professional and at same time also make you feel free to be yourself, his explanations were super easy to understand for anyone really, he will find your way of learning and adjust to it, he can tell when you ready or not, giving constructive feedback and explaining the reasons why we have to follow certain procedures, can be super funny but at some time professional!!!My husband plans to take lessons with him as well, he is someone you can definitely trust to get you that certificate for life!!!

Bene is both relaxed and professional; she was great at answering any questions you had. If I wasn't too sure of anything or felt I needed more practice Bene was more than happy to guide me through each step.

Unbelievable instructor. Taught me all the test routes in Barnet inside/out. On the day of my test there was nothing I hadn't seen before. Always on time, never cancelled. I would recommend to anyone serious about learning to drive. Don't mess this lady about she has a long waiting list - took me 2 weeks to get booked back in with her because I cancelled one lesson. That's how good she is!

Bets instructor in Barnet. If you want to pass first time - Call driveJohnson's/Susanna!

Thank you for everything it really means a lot. I would say is “Initially, I wasn’t very confident driving but Ifty constantly reassured me that making mistakes was ok.
After every lesson I felt that I had improved no matter how small because of how thorough and genuine Ifty was when it came to me perfecting my driving skills.
I would 100% recommend him to anyone who is looking to not only pass their test, but to be equipped with lifelong driving skills.

Just trust him!!
He is able to sense when a student needs help, encouragement or even is nervous, is confused, is stressed, or tired. Iftikhar is very passionate and dedicated person to his job. He is a true meaning of professional in what he is doing.he provides whatever is necessary to improve the situation. He doesn’t scare you but instead guides the way.
Again just trust him. Go and take the exam when he says you are ready, then you know you definitely PASS it!!

Hojjat is a highly skilled driving instructor who goes above and beyond for his students. He tailored the lessons to my needs and provided constructive feedback. I'm grateful for his support throughout my learning journey.

I just passed my test today, all thanks to Susanna. She's a brilliant instructor. Woooooooooooooop. Beep, beep. See ya on the roads everyone!!!

Started learning from scrap.ifty is an amazing instructor! Incredibly patient and calm whilst I drive and gives clear and concise instructions. He also answered my many questions, is very experience.Also helped a bunch with my confidence. Passed on my first attempt. His methods of teaching are easy to understand and helped me to pass on my first attempt. His teaching method is not to pass the test only,also for the safe driving after we pass.

Ifty is a really patient and friendly Driving Instructor that wouldn't get annoyed if you repeated your mistakes. He will explain what you did wrong clearly and finds the best solution or tips for you to remember....He is very kind and understanding. I was able to pass the first time because of his constant reminders during driving!
Thank you Ifty!

Bene is such an excellent instructor! She was always so positive even when I was having a bad day, which made me feel confident and happy with my progress. I always felt as if I left each lesson with brand new skills and as a better driver!

I highly recommend Hojjat as a driving instructor in London. He was professional, reliable and helped me improve my driving skills significantly. He was also flexible with scheduling, which made it convenient for me.

I had a driving instructor with another company which made me feel awful after every lesson. After speaking with the office team I had a few requirements for my new instructors as I was incredibly nervous. Bene was utterly fabulous with me, she guided me through each lesson and whenever I got nervous she had a range of coping techniques. She's fab!

Bene is a great driving instructor, she took the time to tell me exactly how manoeuvres should be carried out. Ben is extremely patient and caring, which has lead me to becoming a much safer driver!

Couldn't recommend Susanna more. I was very nervous and she helped me build up my confidence so I passed first time!

Thanks Ifty for getting me through my driving test first time! I appreciate your professionalism, good advice and patience.

Passed my test the first time thanks to ifty, he is definitely the best in the business. He works hard and gives you a 100% every time your with him. And if you don't know what MSPSL is trust me by the time you get to your test you will definitely be an expert in MSPSL.

I want to express my deep gratitude to you for all the support you have given me over the last 6 months. To be honest it seems an eternity since our first lesson last summer. However, your patience and good humour took most of the stress out of what has been for me a trying experience. I know there have probably also been occasions when your patience has been equally tried! However, throughout this you have been courteous and supportive.
This morning my hard work paid off but I know without hesitation that I could not and would not have passed first time if you had not been my teacher.
My first task was to put on the green plates, put the pass certificate in the car and to head off to my wife's grave. She will indeed be smiling! I then drove to work along the A40 without incident. I won't usually take the car to work but couldn't resist. Finally, tonight we celebrate but, as I will be driving (!) the drink will have to wait until the week-end.

I passed first time today and it's all thanks to Ifty! He is VERY patient and calm which was helpful for me because as a new driver you make many mistakes, he never got angry and always explained what I was doing wrong and how I could improve. He would also remind me of key things to look out for and I never felt uncomfortable asking questions. I 100% recommend Ifty as a driving instructor! Thank you again. THANK YOU FOR YOUR PATIENCE.

Hojjat is an amazing driving instructor. He was attentive, gave constructive feedback, and tailored my lessons to my progress. I felt well-prepared and confident when I took my driving test.

Bene is an absolutely fantastic instructor, she was adamant as soon as I perfected my manoeuvres and felt confident to book my test. So, I did and passed first time with only one minor! Cannot recommend her enough

Ifty has been the most patient driving instructor I could have asked for. I had been struggling a lot with my awareness but his constant and persistent reminders really helped me passed my test first time! I could not have done it without him.
He is very friendly and optimistic and never gave up on me even though sometimes it took me endless days to understand something and execute it properly. Would like to say many thanks!
And I know anyone who goes to Ifty will be able to pass!

Just passed first time with Bene! After having a rubbish experience with another driving school and taking some time out, I was really nervous to begin lessons again. The super friendly office team told me about Bene and they said she would be the best person to start building my confidence and they were so right! So happy with my experience with Drivejohnsons and my amazing instructor Bene!

Hojjat is a knowledgeable and experienced driving instructor. He gave me the necessary skills and knowledge to become a safe and confident driver. I'm grateful for his dedication and support.

An outstanding instructor! I couldn't be happier with the lessons I had with Bene. She was brilliant at what she did and made me feel confident before taking my test, which I ended up passing first time!

I can't thank Hojjat enough for his patience and encouragement during my driving lessons. He helped me overcome my nervousness and build my driving skills. I highly recommend him as a driving instructor in London.

I would just like to take this opportunity to thank you for helping me pass my driving test. Your knowledge, experience and expertise gave me the skills I needed to pass my test first time and has given me something which I will now have for life. Couldn’t have done it without you Ifty!

Hojjat is an excellent driving instructor with great communication skills. He explained complex concepts simply and understandably. I owe my success in passing my driving test to his guidance.

As someone who was not very confident starting off, I can highly recommend Ifty's services. He taught me in a systematic way, setting out clear steps to follow for each aspect of driving which helped me pass first time. Five stars from me!
Thank you.

After failing twice with another driving school, I wanted to make sure that I went with the next best driving school for my next test and Drivejohnsons definitely was that! My instructor Bene was so lovely and really patient helping me to build my confidence. I went on to pass with her with just 4 minors!!

I just realised I passed. Yayyyy. Thank you so much for the lessons and help. I was lucky enough to have Ifty as an Instructor. He was professional, knowledgeable, clear and easy to understand. His method meant I knew exactly what I was doing at all times and when it came time for my test, I was confident and comfortable. I passed first time and can honestly say without his help this would not have been possible.
Thank you so much Ifty.

Passed first time! From the first lesson to the last I only have positive things to say about Ifty.
Every lesson I grew in confidence and felt huge improvements in my driving ability.
Couldn’t have asked for a better teacher!

Learning to drive with Hojjat was a great experience. He was patient, professional and provided clear instructions. Thanks to his guidance, I passed my driving test with ease.

Hojjat is an exceptional driving instructor in London. His expertise and calm demeanour helped me become a confident driver. I highly recommend him for anyone looking to learn to drive.

I couldn't believe how quickly I started to pick up different driving skill when I started learning with Bene! I was learning with a different driving school in the past and felt like I was getting no where, so was so happy when I started with Bene and settled straight into driving!!

Much appreciated Ifty. We went through every little detail as many times as it took for me to learn. Always was patient with me and the best driving teacher I've had hands down!

Hojjat is a fantastic driving instructor who genuinely cares about his students' success. He provided a structured learning plan and encouraged me to do my best. I passed my test with flying colours!

So happy to have passed my driving test today with just 2 minors thanks to the help of Bene! I couldn't have asked for a better instructor - Bene was friendly, professional and had loads of great tips to help me to remember manoeuvres which is something that I really struggled with!

The instructor I was given by driveJohnsons was honestly amazing! Bene had me driving in no time; I was working on my manoeuvres every lesson and passed the first time.

Learning to drive with Hojjat was a pleasure. He was punctual, professional, and had a calm demeanour. His attention to detail and focus on safety were remarkable.

I had a wonderful experience learning to drive with Hojjat. He was friendly, patient and made me feel at ease throughout the lessons. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a driving instructor in London.

I had a great experience learning to drive with Hojjat. His calm and friendly demeanour made me feel comfortable from day one. He provided valuable tips and tricks that helped me become a better driver.

I had my driving lessons with Bene, from day one she was absolutely excellent. Not only did she take the time to make sure I was comfortable, but she was also lovely to chat to throughout each lesson, which made it that much better!

Well what can I say, Ifty is by far one of the best driving instructors I’ve ever come across. Truly made me feel confident and helped improve my driving skills in every possible way possible! Made me pass in just 2 weeks FIRST TIME!
Thanks Ifty! Highly recommend.

Hojjat is a professional and dedicated driving instructor. He was patient with me and helped me build confidence behind the wheel. I would highly recommend him to anyone in London seeking driving lessons.

I came to Susanna as I failed my test with two other instructors, I was going to give up but she kept me going and 10 hours later I passed with just 3 minors thanks to her. Great instructor and really lifted my confidence when I thought I couldn't do it anymore.

Test tip of the month for Hendon

When you are taking your driving test at Hendon test centre, you will leave the car park turning right out of the bay. Be mindful of the kerbs near the flower beds as they are quite sharp. When you come to the end of the road at the giveaway lines, keep well to the left and STOP as it’s blind. Ensure to make effective observations to the left, in case anyone is emerging from car park on the left - and ahead, check both left and right again before you turn right.

Useful driving test tip for Hendon Show more

Useful driving test tip for Hendon

A classic question is: what happens if you go the wrong way on your test? The answer is not a lot. Just try to do it safely and you will be fine. Many learners will swerve at short notice, realising they are in the wrong lane and fail for the changing lanes part. If the examiner can see you have time to get into the correct lane, they may repeat the instruction or use hand signals. They won't repeat or re-enforce the direction if it isn't safe or there isn't enough time. You will not receive a driving fault for safely going in the wrong direction on your test.
