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

Brilliant teacher, becomes a friend more that a teacher, loved being in the car with him

elliot is a great instructor he made me feel really relaxed on the roads and helped me pass first time. he was so understanding and funny and i recommend him.

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

Elliot is a very good instructor, very clear and in depth with instructions and explanations for me, makes a calm atmosphere in the car for me to learn and focus, easy to talk to and always punctual, flexible and supportive, would recommend to anyone.

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

Managed to pass my driving test for the first time with just 5 minors. It took less than 15 hours since I’ve already learned driving with Elliot one year ago for 30 hours. However, I didn’t manage to do my driving test due to uni. So, this time I’ve managed to pull it off with all the skills and knowledge given by Elliot. He’s a very professional driving instructor who helps his students to become more advanced in driving, and feel more confident on the road. Also, he ensures that his students know what the examiners are looking for when it comes to the driving test.

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

Amazing instructor, and is always kind and calm whatever the situation. When I first started taking lessons, I had no confidence in driving but now with Elliot I’ve progressed a lot and feel so much more comfortable. He is very clear with instructions whilst supporting your own learning style.

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.

Just passed my driving test with Elliot Lloyd!! Elliot is an amazing patient driving instructor, can't thank him enough for all he has taught me. Would recommend 100%.

Teach lessons very good

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

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.

Elliott has been an amazing instructor and really helped me grow in confidence through our driving lessons!! I can’t thank him enough for his patience and support!! Definitely recommend him to people who are wanting to learn how to drive

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.

Elliott was an amazing driving instructor, he was very supportive and helpful from start to finish. I would highly recommend Elliott to anyone looking for driving lessons, hes such a lovely person and has helped me overcome so many fears when driving and gave me the confidence I needed to be able to pass my test!!!

Elliot for me was an excellent teacher, he went through all things tied to driving in defining detail and clarified meticulously whenever I had questions to ask. I absolutely recommend him, if you want to pass your test.

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

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.

Made driving simple and fun to learn would highly recommend

I recently had the pleasure of taking driving lessons with Elliot, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. Whether you’re someone who already has a good understanding of driving or a completely beginner, Elliot will tailor your lessons to meet your needs.

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.

Quality instructor and amazing guy!

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

The best instructor I have had. Goes through and explains everything that your struggling with, is always making sure you are confident before moving onto the next thing, friendly and easy to get a along with, highly recommend :)

Absolutely amazing I felt so confident with my driving , he went through everything I didn’t understand and gave me examples , was the best instructor I’ve had he is very friendly and never forces you nothing you don’t want to do you will be lucky to be Taught by him

Elliott is the best instructor around! He makes you feel at ease instantly, really patient and explains in different ways if you don't understand. For someone that had a phobia of driving I now feel confident in the road and prefer being the driver now rather than the passenger and I passed first time with him! Thanks so much!

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! ?

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.

Elliott was brilliant with me even when the nerves was effecting me and his teaching style is very fun and engaging.

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

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

Elliot is an absolutely great instructor. Hes a very patient, chill guy who gives you space to learn. He’s also very friendly and treats you with respect. I passed in less than 2 months of being with him!

Elliott helped build my confidence and helped me understand important things that helped me pass my test. Was always calm what helped me stay calm on the road.

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.

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.

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’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.

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 .

After a long and tiresome instructor search I think it was a sign finding Elliot… He’s a great instructor and a great person! Elliot’s calm and collected manner really puts me at ease when driving. He truly makes what can seem to be such a daunting experience, an exciting one! Learning to Drive is definitely much more enjoyable now….I would definitely recommend him to anyone in the future. Can’t appreciate his skills enough!!

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.

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

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

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.

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

From start to finish elliot took control of what needed to be done (no pun intended) he instantly set my goals and helped me achieve each one. He was incredibly professional and actually listened to everything I was questioning. I've had a few instructors over time and never felt as comfortable as I did with elliot. Respect and thanks for everything

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 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.

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.
