Samira was a fantastic instructor who taught me how to drive from scratch. She is very patient and knows how to guide and teach pupils, especially all the manoeuvres. I wouldn’t have passed my driving test the first time if it wasn’t for her! Highly recommend her as a driving instructor.
My instructor was amazing! really easy to get along with and taught me everything so i got it really quickly. passed first time.
Samira Elguenuni is not just a driving instructor but a very talented professional who has valuable teaching skills. I had 30 lessons with someone else and couldn’t understand why I was still making lots of mistakes. I found Samira and only after two lessons with her I knew why I kept making those mistakes. This was because I was simply told to do something but wasn’t explained properly. I highly recommend Samira because she is truly passionate and cares about the final result.
I passed first time!!! Thanks to Samira. She has excellent teaching techniques with great explanations to make you easily understand. She's very calm and patient and I could not recommend her enough. The best instructors out there. Definitely recommend her.
I had 2 classes so far with samira the instructor I must say she is the best till now. Looking forward to pass my test with her help and support.
Samira is a lovely instructor and I had a really enjoyable lesson. She makes you feel very comfortable and confident in the car, and explains the rules of the road very comprehensively - I’m looking forward to learning more from her.
I was told to learn with Samira from a friend and I am so happy i took their advice as Samira is a great instructor and helped me to pass with confidence.
By far the best instructor in London and I couldn't have passed my test if it wasn't for Sammira and her amazingly helpful lessons.
Samira's consistent and high standard of teaching has led me to a pass at Hendon test center with 1 minor fault. There was no time wasted in any of my lessons and her constant encouragement helped me gain the confidence I needed to be a safe driver. As a result, I was able to overcome any nervousness and the test flew by!
My instructor Samira is very supportive and encouraging and helped me gain the confidence I need to drive the car. She explains everything so clearly and is super kind, friendly and patient. Defo recommend Samira and Drive Johnson’s.
The best instructor in London and I am so happy to have learned with her.
Samira is a great instructor and thanks to her I got my licence after just 15 hours of lessons and passed first time!
Samira Elguenuni is the reason I passed my driving test in Greenford and am a confident driver and enjoy driving. I worked with 2 other instructors before her and I have to say her skills as an instructor, communicator and ability to identify and work with you to correct areas not only will make you pass but also make you a better driver. Highly recommend! She also made sure she gave just the right amount of classes and not extra or less than required!
I had a lot of lessons over a couple of years off and on and failed my test but i didn’t feel i was learning a lot.My friend advised to call Drivejohnsons so idid i wish had done this ages ago my Instructor was brilliant so patient and i eventually passed my Test.Thankyou so much DJ.
Fantastic instructor! Really took the time to put me at ease, explained everything in clear and simple terms. Gave me back my confidence in one driving lesson! Many thanks Samira
Had Samira as my driving instructor she has helped me throughout the course and she made my confidence grow whilst I was driving and I passed first time with samira I would defently recommend her to everyone a fab instructor
Fantastic instructor and getting to learn with an instructor that knows the best way to teach pupils was so refreshing and she helped me to pass first time.
Thanks to the amazing Samira, I passed my test 2nd time around with NO minors!! I had had a previous instructor who I later learned hadn't actually taught me anything (I didn't even know what MSPSL or POM or blind spot was!), Samira taught me almost from scratch and fully explained everything making sure I understood, and through practise, patience and encouragement, I passed with such success in less than 20 hours with her. It's all thanks to Samira. I'm so thankful I found her on Drive Johnson's.
My driving instructor (Samira Elganuni) taught me the basic and advanced manoeuvres to the highest degree. This resulted in faulting with only 2 minors and passing first time. THANK YOU!!
Very fast booking! I emailed them in the morning and got a call in the afternoon. My instructor is Samira and she is very professional and patient. They will go through every step to prepare you for the driving test. In the end of the studies they’ll take you to areas near your test centre and let you do a mock test. I have booked more lessons immediate after my first lesson. Will definitely recommend to friends!
Loved learning with Samira and I would recommend her to anyone that wants to learn how to drive quickly and with confidence.
I can only give 5* to Drivejohnsons after my driving experience. My instructor was patient and really helped me feel at ease. I’m so glad i learned to drive with Drivejohnsons

Simeon Fearon - driving instructor in Maida Vale
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.
