A big thank you to my instructor Elliot and also Drive Johnsons for introducing the best instructor ever. He is very professional, calm and friendly and knows how to make the driving experience stress free which I believe is the key to learning. Being an absolute beginner he helped me build my confidence in no time and made me progress at my own pace. Looking forward to have more lessons and would highly recommend him to anyone who is willing to be a safe, skilled and confident driver.

elliott is a brilliant driving instructor, very patient and understanding.

Excellent Driving Instructor, Highly recommended within the Bury region. Amazing individual & Instructor! Thanks Elliot

Thanks Elliot - passed first time and couldn’t have done it without you. Calm and friendly approach to teaching, can’t recommend highly enough!

I have always put off booking lessons in the past because i was so nervous, had my first lesson with Elliott & he made sure i felt good about everything! Will recommend him to anyone i know wanting lessons, can't wait for my next lesson ?

Elliot is a brilliant driving instructor, and has helped me so much, enjoyed my lessons with Elliot, elliot was so comforting the morning of my test, I recommend anyone looking to do driving lessons to do them with elliot he is so patient and helpful his way of teaching is fun.

Elliott is an excellent driving instructor who clearly thoroughly enjoys his job. He is extremely passionate and knowledgable. I couldn’t recommend him enough!

So happy to have passed my test it may have taken me over 40 hours but thanks to Elliott I passed and I am so happy to say I can now drive on my own

Elliot is a life saver!!! My driving instructors car broke down the week before my test. Messaged Elliot and he was happy to help, taught me so much and helped with my nerves before the test. Would highly recommend and worth every penny.

I could not recommend Elliott enough. I have only had one lesson with him but in that hour he has made me feel much more confident and comfortable driving after being put off by previous instructors.

Excellent instructor - first time pass for my daughter. Highly recommend!

Elliot was professional and an amazing teacher! He is the patient instructor and he makes lessons enjoyable too. Couldn’t recommend enough! Big thank you for all your help, patience and encouragment. Thank you!

Really good driving instructors. In a few lessons i feel confidence and comfortable in a car and he makes it simple for anyone to understand with the best demonstration and terminology. 10/10 you will be lucky to be taught by him

Teach lessons very good

My son passed his driving test first time this week after taking lessons with Elliott. I cannot recommend him enough - he is very passionate about his job and does it in a calm and patient way. I have already booked my younger sons driving lessons with Elliott when he turns 17 in a few months time.

Elliott is a brilliant driving instructor, he is so calm and patient, explains everything with clear instructions, and helped build my confidence - I am so pleased to have passed first time and couldn't have done it without Elliott - would definitely recommend him - thank you so much

Elliott has been teaching my 17 year old son for a few weeks now. My son is very shy and nevous as well has have some SEN needs, but Elliott has made him feel very comfortable. He is patient & friendly with him and makes him feel confident which is something he lacks. I would recommend Elliott to any body looking for an instructor! ⭐️

Top instructor…really calm and patient…enjoyed doing lessons and never felt pressured…would 100% reccomend

Was great to learn to drive with both driveJohnson's and Elliott was a great instructor. He helped me to ace my test and to pass both first time and with only one minor.

The best driving instructor! Very patient and keeps you relaxed while learning to drive. Always keeps you enjoying driving, while still making sure you do everything as it should be.

I started learning with Elliott and it was a great experience from start to finish. He was confident, friendly and made a great impression and it was overall a great experience.

Elliot helped me a lot learning to drive. Not only he teaches you to pass a test but also teaches you to be a good driver and make the roads a safer place

Elliott is a really great instructor. He’s really patient and has been able to easily talk me through manoeuvres and has made driving so much easier! Would definitely recommend him to anyone.

Elliot is an amazing instructor. Coming from someone who has tried most instructors in the area, and had constant bad experiences, i never thought i would pass until Elliot taught me. Very patient and understanding, and also a friendly down to earth guy. Very talented instructor, recommend 100%

I have tried to learn to drive for a while but it wasn't until I started to learn with drive Johnson's and Elliott as the way he teaches makes it easy to understand. It didn't take me long and it feels great to now be able to drive my own car around town.

Elliott is a great instructor and over the 30 hours he helped me to gain more confidence on the road. I was lucky to have passed first time and with no minors aswell.

Elliott’s been the best instructor I’ve had. He’s very calm and patient. He gives lots of good practical advice and tips on difficult manoeuvres. I would highly recommend him.

Top quality instructor who makes the whole experience stress free, confidence inspiring and just generally enjoyable. If you wanna pass first time you need an instructor with a talent for teaching like Elliott does. 10/10

driveJOhnson's paired me with Elliott and I had a great experience he was easy to get on with, made me feel comfortable and explained everything really clearly. Overall, it was a fantastic experience and one I would recommend to everyone

Elliott quickly calmed me down and made me stop panicking about driving, I had been with another school before hand but was not feeling confident, then driveJohnson's provided me with Elliott and he changed my perception of driving and enhanced my abilities. Thank you Elliott.

Great instructor!!! Tried for months to find the right person, and Elliot is the best by a mile. I get quite stressed and Elliot is such a calming influence. He’s also really flexible around work hours etc. I think I’ll pass in no time for thanks to this man.

Loved loved loved Elliott he was amazing he made me feel so comfortable and so confident, I wish he could teach me everything as he is an amazing teacher and I couldn't have passed without him

Elliott is an amazing driving instructor would recomend to anyone he is easy to get along with he explains things really well would 100% recommend him to anyone.

I highly recommend Elliott as he is an amazing driving instructor who is very calm and encouraging throughout lessons and before a test. He puts 100% effort into focusing on struggles and creates helpful techniques to overcome them, making you understand things with ease. Elliott also calmed my nerves on many occasions and built up my confidence in driving, which has lead me to pass my test with flying colours.

Elliott is the man, he helped me to crush my driving test and to do it with no minors is even more impressive if I do say so myself. Elliott, you are an amazing help and I am so glad to have had you in my corner

i am so glad i switched to having elliot as my driving instructor he made me feel confident in my ability to drive, he always talked me through everything we was doing to make sure i felt comfortable and understood, he made me feel safe and made sure i knew he also had control of the car. Couldn't recommend him enough

Brilliant instructor who made me feel comfortable and kept calm in any situation, best instructor you can find!

Honestly the bets driving instructor ever , knew exactly what I needed too do and where too help me , super down to earth and positive all the time , made me feel really comfortable .

Smashing teacher. I’ve had a couple different instructors and Elliot has been the one I have not only seen the most progression with but also the least stress with. A calm focused and talkative teacher who will teach you the necessary driving knowledge for passing your test and beyond.

I had confidence issues due to a past instructor and took time out of lessons I found Elliott and from the first lesson he has been absolutely amazing my confidence grew straight away and the nerves went and I looked forward to my lessons each week! I can not thank Elliott for what he has done and would highly recommend him to anyone. I have already asked him to teach my son next year! Thank you again!

Had a 30 hour crash course with Elliott and loved it really supportive and informative instructors

Elliott was a great instructor and helped me to stay calm when I was nervous about manoeuvres. Would recommend him to anyone who is after an instructor.

Elliott is a brilliant instructor, always calm and patient in any situation. He has made me feel at ease while driving which has allowed my confidence to grow.

Ive only initially started learning with him but his level of patience and creative and helpful ways to demonstrate driving and saftey mechanics has already given me an incredible confidence boost for when i take my driving exam

Elliot has been amazing with me. He is the most patient instructor I have had and he makes lessons enjoyable too. Thank you so much for all your hard work to get me where I am! ?

Couldn’t recommend this guy more, really teaches you how to drive not just for a test but for life. He’s the instructor you want!
Put up with all my bull***t too! Top guy

Before I switched to elliot I had failed 3 tests and decided to switch , in 2 months I passed first time with elliot I would recommend him to everyone

Elliot is an amazing teacher, very patient and positive! You couldn’t find anyone better! I’m only a few lessons in and I’ve already learnt so much. I would 100% recommend him, especially if you are nervous as he is great at building self confidence and is very calm on the road.

WHAT A GUY. Makes you feel comfortable and chilled with no stress or pressure. And gets you the best results no doubt.

Amazing instructor who instantly puts you at ease! Would 100% recommend to anyone!

Test tip of the month for Ramsbottom

Whilst you are learning and sitting in the passenger seat when someone else is driving, pay attention and watch the driver. Watch the road and your driver to see how you would handle certain situations. Seeing how others respond and act will help you with the decision-making in your lessons.

Useful driving test tip for Ramsbottom Show more

Useful driving test tip for Ramsbottom

Examiners are very partial to drivers following too close. Remember on 30mph roads to keep at least six car lengths back from the car in front (if they are doing 30mph). Anything above 40mph, use the 2-second rule! If it is raining, remember that the stopping distance will double.
