Riaz was what I needed to pass and pass with no minors. I had an issue with a previous school and switching to driveJohnson's was the best thing I ever did. He knew the area and told me what I needed to be safe and to pass fast. Couldn't recommend him highly enough.
Mohammed helped me to pass in Oldham he has great knowledge and was a great communicator who helped me to master everything fast.
Mohammed helped me ace my test in only 25 hours so happy he was my instructor!
My driving lessons with Mohammed were great. As a complete beginner Mohammed showed me everything I need to know about driving and equipped me with the knowledge needed to pass my driving test and go on to be a safe and confident driver after passing. Mohammed is extremely knowledgable and I'd highly recommend him to anyone looking for exceptional quality driving lessons.
Whooooooo! I am now a driver! Riaz is great to learn from, and I passed in just 20 hours with him.
Mohammed is a great instructor who helped me pass first time around, I can't thank him enough :)
Literally the best instructor in Bolton and he is great at explaining how to perform all the tricky manoeuvers.
I was super nervous to begin to learn to drive. I had been recommended drive johsnon and Riaz by a friend and I am so glad I went with them. Riaz was super welcoming and helped calm me straight away. I will forever be thankful
Great driving teacher helps everyone and very good teaching skills thank you
Huge thanks to Mohammed for helping me pass my test first time. Best driving instructor around.
Learning with Mohammed was quick, simple and efficient, loved every second and am so happy I passed after only 20 hours
Mohammed was an expert instructor and made learning so easy I am so glad I learnt with him.
Mohammed taught me to drive in Manchester and whilst I was scared at first he quickly helped me calm down and get used to big city driving
I have just passed my test, and it is right before Christmas. I couldn't have asked for a better instructor or driving school.
Mohammed is an amazing driving instructor - patient, kind and good at what he does! Could not have asked for more from a driving instructor. Was made to feel very at ease from my first lesson, despite being extremely nervous. Passed first time with Mohammed after failing with another instructor. Thank you so much :)
If you need a lesson, make sure you learn with Riaz as he is a superb instructor.
I made a great decision by learning with Riaz, he is the best instructor around, and you have to learn with him.
Make sure you choose to learn with Riaz as he is a top bloke and knows what he is talking about!
Passed with just 2 minors after learning with Mohammed in Oldham. Couldn't be happier and would definitely recommend Mohammed to anyone looking for driving lessons.
I am over the moon that I passed before the new year and I can't wait to go on loads of road trips in 2022.
If you need to get a licence quickly and confidently, make sure that you learn with Riaz as he is super friendly and knowledgeable. He made learning to drive fun.
Mohammed was a brilliant instructor who taught me everything I needed to pass my driving test and become a safe driver. Thank you Mohammed :)
I have a new sense of freedom now I can drive, and it is all thanks to Riaz. He is an outstanding instructor and you need to test him out!
Best instructor in Bolton and I am so happy to have passed my test in Bolton today with Riazs help.
Mohammed helped me to pass right before my big road trip. I am so glad I learnt with him as he motivated me to hit my deadline and I know he pushed me at my pace and it felt great to pass.
Riaz, you are a fantastic instructor, and I couldn't have passed without you. This has to be the easiest five stars I have ever given!
Mohammed was a great instructor who has helped me build up confidence as a driver and when it came to my theory test. I couldn't have done it without him.
One of the best driving instructors very kind and respectful , 100% pass with him
I am so glad to have passed with Riaz andI am over the moon to be a fully qualified driver.
Passed 1st time after 20 hours, thanks!!! :)
I had a great experience learning to drive with Riaz as he is super friendly and gave me some great feedback on how to improve and develop my confidence.
Mohammed is an excellent driving instructor and by the far the best I have learnt with after having tried 2 other instructors before coming to drivejohnsons. Thanks for everything Mohammed!
It feels amazing to have passed my test and Riaz was an amazing instructor. He was so helpful and I wouldn't have been able to pass if he wasn't helping me every step of the way.
My lessons were super easy to arrange, and Riaz was super friendly. He is so professional and a great instructor.
Thank you so much for your help, Riaz. I am so happy that I now have my driving licence and I can't wait to go car shopping!
The best instructor around, hands down! Incredible teaching and always made me feel super confident.
Firstly I want to thank drive johnsons for all of their help and for helping me to get my lessons organised and sorted. When it comes to Riaz I couldn't be happier, not only was he cool, calm and collected but he helped me get to a place where I passed with ease and now I can head to and from uni in my own car instead of a bus or train, (what a relief) and thank you Riaz, for all your help.
I needed to pass fast and thanks to Riaz I was able to pass in just 15 hours. I will recommend him to anyone who needs to learn in the area.
I needed to change schools and driving with Riaz was the best choice I have made. Now I can't wait to start driving all around the country!
Mohammed is a brilliant instructor, would highly recommend to anyone who wants to learn to drive with a top instructor. Thanks for everything Mohammed.
Had the best experience learning to drive with my instructor Mohammed. So happy to have passed after 25 hours. Cheers Mohammed!
Mohammed was a great driving instructor, very patient and professional. Thanks for all your help!
Mr Patel is the best instructor in Bolton and he is a great person who has amazing teaching methods and is great at making me feel confident.
Mohammed is an amazing instructor who got me to pass after just 25 hours, from being a nervous driver he settled me and gained my confidence in ever aspect with great patience and encouragement! I would highly recommend Mohammed to any body considering driving lessons he’s brilliant!
I wasn't confident when I started driving but Riaz really helped me with that and he helped me pass more than anyone realises. Riaz was what I needed as he helped me to build up confidence at my own speed and without pressure to progress at a pace I wasn't comfortable with. Thank you Riaz for everything.
What to say about Mohammed. He was a very friendly and welcoming instructor who helped me to achieve my dream of driving in only 30 hours. He was patient with me when I got frustrated and motivated me when I felt like I couldn't do it. Thank you for everything, Mohammed.
Great value for money! I can't recommend Riaz enough to people!
Cheers Mohammed, he helped me to pass after just 20 hours. Thank you for the help
I had my driving lessons with Mohammed in Manchester. He was so helpful, understanding and calm. His teaching was very clear and he always made sure I understood everything I'd been shown. He got me ready for my theory test and made sure I was 100% ready for the practical test so that I passed first time.
Thank you so much for your help, Riaz! My son has been able to pass on his first attempt, thanks to your help. Now we just need to buy him a car!
Frequently asked questions in Manchester
Do you offer automatic driving lessons in Manchester?
We have a number of fully qualified driving instructors in Manchester who offer automatic driving lessons. We handpick all of our driving instructors in Manchester and make sure that they all come with a Grade A rating.
If you wish to learn how to drive an automatic car in particular, then we can make sure your lessons get off on the right track. When booking in for your lessons, just state that you want to learn in an automatic car and we’ll pair you with the right instructor.
Can I start or finish my lessons outside of Manchester?
Yes, if you need to start and finish your lesson in another location all of our driving instructors can assist with this. They will make sure that they plan your lessons according to your schedule.
Some main locations that we can assist with are Bury, Middleton, Oldham and Salford. However, we are capable of dropping you at your desired location outside or inside of Manchester.
Where should I take my test?
When it comes to taking your test, this could affect whether you pass or fail, especially if it is in an area that you are unfamiliar with. When it comes to your test it is best to avoid anything that could cause unwanted pressure.
Therefore, we believe that is best to take your test in the location you have been learning or at least as close as possible. However, if you are able to get a test where you have not been learning, we can help you to arrange mock tests with our instructors in that area.
What areas outside of Manchester do you provide lessons to?
We are happy to announce that we not only cover Manchester but we are also able to offer driving lessons to the whole of Greater Manchester. We have a number of dedicated driving instructors who want to help learners pass fast and safely.
We provide driving lessons in Hyde, driving lessons in Denton and driving lessons in Droylsden, to name a few places. For more information, simply get in touch and we can get you in the driving seat.
What will happen in my first driving lesson?
On your first driving lesson in Manchester, your driving instructor will begin with an introductory chat about your experience. If you have not had any previous lessons, that is fine as many people have not had any previous experience. During this chat, your driving instructor will also go over the basics of the car, and they will do an eyesight check and check your provisional licence.
Once this is done, your instructor will then begin your driving lesson in a quiet area in Manchester. They will cover moving off and stopping, clutch control, the different pedals and how to steer. You will always begin in a quiet area away from cars and other road users to learn at your own pace.
