Nish is an amazing instructor! I had gone through 3 instructors previously and had almost given up hope of getting my driving license but Nish’s calm and straightforward teaching led me to passing first time within 6 months. She explains things so well and really tries to make sure you understand everything even if she’s repeating herself! She is also so easy to get along with which makes the driving experience so much better, I would definitely recommend Nish to anyone looking for a lovely, experienced and patient instructor.

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.

Such a great instructor deserves recognition, She has been consistent and encouraging with both my son's who have successfully passed their tests on the first attempt. Nisha has been extremely patient and informative throughout and made learning to drive a brilliant experience. We all wish you the very best for future and they will miss the lessons with you.
The Howitts

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!!!

Nisha is a very reliable, kind and patient instructor. She was never late to my house and always double checked with me and reminded me when our lessons were. I passed first time because of her teaching and I am very happy that she taught me well.

Nisha was a fantastic driving instructor, with a both calm and patient approach and has helped me progress in all aspects of driving - facing roundabouts, improving my clutch control and an overall improvement in my driving ability and confidence. I would definitely recommend Nisha as a driving instructor!

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!

Nisha is a fantastic driving instructor! Always makes you feel at ease when learning and is always willing to take questions and give a very knowleadgable answer and implement it skillfully into driving. A friendly and genuinely kind person and every lesson always felt productive; I always learnt something new to improve my driving skills. Never made me feel bad for making a mistake and will always be firm and provide valuable advice on how to do better next time which I greatly appreciated. When it came to my practical exam, she made me feel confident as I was extremely nervous but she eased the nerves with humour and encouragement! She will always instill belief in you and be to the point with her explanations, I would highly recommend her for any new drivers!!

Nish is amazing! She's such a lovely instructor, and I really appreciate how well she taught everything. I looked forward to every lesson and learned something new each time. Her patience and encouragement made all the difference, and now I feel so confident behind the wheel. Thanks again for everything, Nish. I'm so glad I had you as my instructor. I would definitely recommend!!!

I loved getting to learn with John and if it wasn't for his teaching I wouldn't have passed first time.

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

Great instructor, had very clear communication and made things very easy to understand which made me learn much quicker and as result helped me pass my test on my first attempt. Would highly recommend her!!

I switched over to Nish after a few lessons with another instructor and would've never passed without her. She's very organised with the lessons and prepares you for everything.

I passed my test the first time with just 5 minors thanks to John Sundaresan at Drivejohnsons! John is so encouraging no matter what, even when you're having a bad day he helps to lighten your mood so that you still feel confident. I'm so happy to have passed so quickly, see you on the roads!

I booked my first ten lessons with John; he is a fantastic driving instructor! I cannot recommend him enough, he is a rigorous teacher and will tell you when you are making a mistake, but this all leads to helping you become a better driver.

After learning with a different driving school in the past who always let me down, I was so happy when I came across Drivejohnson's. After explaining all the hassle I'd had in the past, the lovely office team booked me in with John, and I couldn't have been more grateful. John is the best instructor I could have asked for and really is amazing at his job!

Never thought I would pass my driving test especially first time and with such confidence.

Was so happy when I managed to pass in just two weeks with John! I really wanted to pass before I went to uni and John made that happen for me. The lessons were so productive and each was planned beforehand so we didn't waste any time. To anyone looking to pass quick, book your lessons with John!

Amazing instructor very patient and makes u feel relaxed gets rid of the nerves almost straight away passed first time and wud highly recommend him

If you want to learn with the best book in with Nisha!! having been with other instructors i can honestly say she is another level and stands out as exceptionally good.

Nisha was an amazing driving instructor, she was so helpful throughout my time with her. In every step until I passed she was so patient which made me really enjoy driving! She is so friendly, and made learning very fun. I couldn’t ask for a better instructor, Nisha always went above and beyond for students!!

extremely reliable instructor! she kept me at ease for times i may not have felt the most confident, very helpful when trying to fit lessons around my college schedule. Nisha is by far the best instructor i’ve had and thanks so much for all your help!

Nisha is a great instructor! Extremely calm, patient and always there for me to explain what I've done wrong and how can I improve. She is very sociable, so if you are a nervous person she can make you feel more confident. To me, with her, as an instructor was like I was driving with a friend. I would definitely recommend her.

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!!

Nish is a really nice and calm instructor. I am glad I found her after stopping with 3 previous instructors. She really helped me feel more comfortable and confident driving. And I just passed my test first time. Thank you!

I thoroughly enjoyed learning to drive with Jassim; he was so patient throughout each lesson and ensured I felt confident in everything I did.

Great instructor, really made me feel confident driving independently and taught me how to drive for the real world and not just to pass the test, highly recommend.

Nisha was sooo patient with me! I passed my test a few years ago, but needed some refresher lessons. Her explanations were so clear and concise and I immediately became confident driving after only one lesson. I would absolutely recommend Nisha if you need an instructor for manual driving.

Jassim not only taught me to drive but also taught me how to be a safer driver on the road. Thanks so much for being such a lovely driving instructor, I loved learning to drive!

Brilliant instructor, helped me pass first time. Always on time and very patient and calming for a new driver - would fully recommend!

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.

I had an amazing experience with my driving instructor John, he was so good at teaching and made sure I was completely test ready before telling me to book in. I also passed first time, which made my experience even better!

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!!

Passed my test today! Thanks to Nisha and her great teaching.If you want a fun instructor who makes learning to drive easy then she is your woman.

Nisha is a great instructor, able to deliver instructions in a clear, calm and helpful manner. She offers useful driving advice and was always patient when I encountered difficulties, whether that was during parallel parking, observations and awareness, roundabouts, or junctions. She made what I found to be once extremely stressful, enjoyable, and helped me improve my confidence on the road tremendously. She is very sociable and always helps her students understand how to drive better with visual aids. I highly reccomend her!

I had failed my driving test three times before I finally had lessons with driveJohnson's and it was down to Jassim that I finally managed to pass - even though I thought I never would! I realised how wrong my past teacher had been teaching me just to get me to buy more lessons! However Jassim was amazing and got me to pass really quickly. Would recommend driveJohnson's!

Great time learing to drive with John. He is a great instructor and I am so happy to have been taught by him ?

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!

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.

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.

Couldn't have asked for a better instructor than John! He always made sure that my lessons fit around my college hours and was always happy to pick me up from wherever best suited me. He gave me a progress card at the end of each lesson, so I felt confident with my progress and could set goals for my next lesson!

I can’t recommend Nisha highly enough; she is an outstanding and reliable instructor, with a calm disposition which immediately puts you at ease. I looked forward to our lessons, which were always a pleasure and never a chore (for me, anyway!).

As a man in my early thirties, not being able to drive has for me been a bit of a stigma for some time. In truth, it was something I never really had the confidence to pursue. I have had several instructors before, none of whom really struck me as having the necessary temperament or supportive personality.

I can honestly say that, with Nisha’s help, what had become a bit of a phobia and the source of much stress was made all the more bearable. Getting through my test was a feeling of elation and is something which will have a transformative effect on my life.

Nisha is a credit to drivejohnson’s. Thanks for everything!

One word to describe Nisha would be too hard, so ill go with two - absolutely incredible. I was extremely nervous before my first lesson, but looking back on it now Nisha handles everything with such professionalism and patience. We were able to cover so much within such a short period of time and I developed confidence which I once thought would have taken much more time. Nisha didnt rush through anything and her approach to progressing through the required skills was very reassuring. I have recommended her to so many friends and can’t wait to continue my lessons with her soon.

Doing my driving lessons with drivejohnsons was one of the best things i could have done. Instructor made me feel confident on the road, brilliant at explaining and breaking things down so it is better to understand he believed in me and pushed me until i passed and you are always guaranteed a laugh. Hands down brilliant driving instructor and would highly recommend to anyone

Nish is awesome! I couldn’t have asked for a better driving instructor, everything she taught me was very straight forward and easy to put into practice, communication was also brilliant and she was super easy to get along with. I’m super glad I learnt to drive with Nish and would recommend her to anyone looking for a driving instructor!

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.

I couldn't have asked for a better instructor than Jassim! I was such a nervous driver at first, but he was so patient helping me to become a confident driver who passed with just 3 minors!

Nisha is a wonderful teacher. I couldn't praise her more. She was teaching my daughter Sophie to drive, she has autism and i know at times that was very challenging for a number of reasons. Having struggled in the past with other instructors we was beginning to think that driving may not be for Sophie. However Nisha was so encouraging and persevered week in and week out, today she passed her test!! We have 1 very very happy girl and i'm so grateful to Nisha for your brilliance and understanding. x

I learnt to drive with Jassim in a Vauxhall Astra and he was such a good teacher. I then also decided to get an Astra as my first car as I enjoyed driving it so much. I always felt very safe with Jassim and enjoyed his lessons. Great teacher and instructor - I would recommend him

I had an exceptional experience with Nish as my driving instructor. From the very first lesson, their professionalism and patience were evident. Nish provided clear, constructive feedback and tailored each lesson to address my individual needs, which was incredibly reassuring.

Their teaching methods are both effective and engaging, making even the most challenging aspects of driving manageable. Thanks to their guidance and expertise, I passed my driving test on the first attempt! I highly recommend Nish to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and supportive instructor. Their dedication truly makes a difference!

Test tip of the month for Ruislip

You won’t be marked down for constantly checking your mirrors, but your examiner may think you are being excessive. Whilst you can’t be marked down, checking them constantly may affect your concentration on the road ahead.

Useful driving test tip for Ruislip

Did you know that you can touch the gear lever if you are unsure of what gear you are in? Some cars will tell you what gear you are in, whilst others don't. If in doubt, briefly touch the gear lever and, based on its position, you should be able to identify what gear you are in without looking down.

Frequently asked questions...

I'm at Ruislip High School Sixth Form. Can I be picked up from there and then dropped off at home after my lesson?

Yes, this shouldn't be a problem. Our driving instructors in Ruislip are very flexible and understand that you need driving lessons to work around your studies. Just let our Bookings Team know that you need this when you book in and they will pair you with an instructor who can fit around your schedule.

What will happen on my first driving lesson in Ruislip?

Your driving instructor in Ruislip will come to pick you up at a time and place locally that works best for you. They will introduce themselves, put you at ease and find out a bit more about your driving experience. They will also check your provisional licence and eyesight to ensure that you are legally safe to drive.

If you are new to driving, they will take you to a quiet road in Ruislip, somewhere like Wallington Close, where you can practice the basics away from traffic. You will cover moving off and stopping the car, changing gears, steering, turning left and right from a major to minor road and emerging from open T Junctions, depending on how you are progressing.

If you have some driving experience, your instructor will likely ask you to take them on a drive around Ruislip so that they can assess your current skill level and where you may need to improve before your test. They will then be able to build a lesson plan tailored to your exact needs and give you an idea of how many driving lessons you will need to be at test standard.
