Thank you for helping me pass after just 15 hours, now I can go and buy my own car!

Was given my Mathias number from a friend and thanks to his teaching I passed first time and with only one minor after 16 hours.

Fantastic teacher who alwas put me first and came with detailed lessons plans. Thank you for all of your help Mathias and I will recommend you to anyone.

INcredibly friendly and the best person that you could ask to teach you.

Better than I could have asked, great teaching style with great techniques when it came to acing my manoeuvres.

I loved my lessons and thank you for all of your help, now I am proud to say that I am able to drive!

I am so happy to have passed my driving test and thanks to Mathias help I am now a confident driver and can drive to uni when it starts!

Thank you for all of your help Mathias, I couldn't have asked for a better instructor and if you need to pass on a deadline make sure you learn with Drive Johnson and Mathias.

Can't thank Mathias enough, such a nice guy and amazing driving instructor. Just passed my driving test 1st time with 3 minors!

I never thought I would pass but thanks to Mathias I was able to get my confidence up and pass first time in just 22 hours.

I had a great time learning with Mathias, he is a brilliant instructor and would recommend him to anyone.

Amazing instructor and the best teacher I have ever had!

Test tip of the month for Thornton Heath

You have a 1 in 4 chance of being asked to do the emergency stop. If you are asked to do this, the examiner will explain this to you when the car is stationary. You will most likely notice your examiner looking over their shoulder when the car is moving. This is to double-check it’s safe, so be ready. When they look over their shoulder, they are about to ask you to stop!

Useful driving test tip for Thornton Heath Show more

Useful driving test tip for Thornton Heath

Many learners fail their manoeuvre because they rush it. They get concerned about keeping other road users waiting. It's good to be considerate about other road users, but on your test, you have got to go nice and slow, so you have time to do all the observations needed. The faster you do the manoeuvre, the faster your observations should be. You know what to do - keep your speed slow, so you have time to observe!

Frequently asked questions...

Do you have automatic driving instructors in Thornton Heath?

Yes, we do. We have several automatic driving instructors in the area, all of whom are highly experienced and receive excellent reviews from their pupils. To book in with them, simply enquire online or call our friendly Bookings Team on 0330 124 4877.

Do you have female driving instructors in Thornton Heath?

Yes, we do have female driving instructors in Thornton Heath who offer top-quality driving lessons in the area. They are in high demand, so if you would prefer to learn with a female driving instructor, we would always advise to get in touch in advance to avoid disappointment.

What happens if I don’t pass my intensive driving course in Thornton Heath?

Your driving instructor will review what happened on your driving test and then advise the next best course of action. Often it’s just a case of doing 4-8 top up hours before taking your next test. Some learners really struggle with nerves, if this has really affected the result of the last test then sometimes mock tests with different instructors can help, which we can arrange for you.

Do you offer driving lessons in any of the surrounding areas?

Yes, we have driving instructors offering driving lessons in Sutton, Mitcham, Croydon, Streatham, Tooting and many more of the surrounding areas.
