Magda has been an amazing instructor, helping me to pass my test with just 1 minor.

She is very patient and supportive, and explains everything carefully so you fully understand what you need to do & how to improve. Her mock tests are also extremely helpful in preparing you for the real thing.

She has such a kind and positive attitude, giving you the confidence you need to learn to drive safely.

Thank you so much for everything, Magda - I couldn’t have asked for a better instructor!

Highly reccomend Magda! The moment I changed instructors I was making much greater and faster progress. Magda is encouraging, funny and makes you feel comfortable. A great teacher and I can't thank her enough

Thank you sooooooo much for helping me pass first time. Best instructor in UK!

Rob really helped me overcome my nerves. On my first lesson I kept stalling, but after a few lessons he helped me get over the clutch control and helped me pass my test really fast.
 
I recommend to anyone.

Magda was absolutely fantastic, she made me feel comfortable and confident even though I was nervous. After just 3 months of driving i passed first time and would recommend her to anyone.

Magda is a brilliant driving instructor, she is calm and patient with you, until you feel confident behind the wheel, she is very knowledgeable about all the routes, and knows exactly what is needed to pass. When she does give feedback and criticism, it is reasonable and fair, and I’m pretty sure i wouldn’t off passed without her help, she is an amazing instructor, thank you Magda.

Magda is a fantastic and very capable instructor. She knows when it's right to challenge you and push you to do well, and is able to help perfect the elements of your driving that need working on. She is friendly and positive, and recognises the value of constructive feedback. With her guidance I passed first time with only one minor, so I would recommend her to learner drivers of all levels.

I've had several driving instructors over the years and Magda was the best! Magda is calm and patient and relaxes her students by being funny and chatty, but is also fair and reasonable when giving criticism and feedback. I don't think I would have passed my test without Magda, she is brilliant. Thank you Magda!

I passed my test with 1 minor after a few months of lessons with Magda. She knows what to look for and how to communicate your obvious and potential problems without stressing you out. She’s an asset to Drive Johnson’s and I’d recommend her to anyone. She cares about your success as much as you do and helped me to relax and focus before my test.

Magda has been an exceptional driving instructer and has helped me to become a confident and safe driver. She's an experience and knowledgeable instructor who I'd definitely recommend to others!

Magda is a great driving instructor, patient and a laugh. I found some driving instructors to be mean if you get something wrong but magda never did that. I recommend Magda to anyone thinking about learning to drive but perhaps are too nervous.
Thanks so much xx

Magda is a great driving instructor, she really helped me in improving my weak areas and turning them into strong points and in just 7 weeks my driving skills improved greatly and I passed my Practical. Superb Instructor! Would highly recommend

I will start by saying that Magda is the best !!? Only had a few experience with driving before I got to her , I was afraid and nervous, as soon as we met and we started to know each other, I felt confident and full of trust. She is calm with a really warm voice,she can take you through all situations and scenarios and she is answering all your questions! Thank you, thank you and thank you again ?

I just had my driving test and passed with 1 minor. I have been driving with Magda for months and she has taught me everything I needed to know. She is calm when instructing and if improvement is needed, she will thoroughly explain to you which left no room for repetition. She is an asset

Magda is an amazing driving instructor and such a kind caring woman. Her calm nature makes it very easy to learn with her and she advises you on what you need to do to pass and be a great driver each lesson. All of her students will tell you how great she is, I've already recommended 2 people to her and they love her!

Don't think I could've done it without her encouragement!

Thanks Madga

Where do I begin? After a bad experience with a previous instructor I was ready to give up with driving. Although after reading all these positive reviews I decided to give it another go with Magda. I am ever so pleased I did, Magda is professional, patient and very good fun. She has believed in me 100% and it is because of her that I passed my test with 4 minors.
Every lesson is so much fun and I will miss her ever so much. Thankyou Magda for helping through this journey & achieving my dream!! x

Magda is a wonderful tutor. I passed my test in the first go with her prompt support and excellent teaching skills.
I would surely recommend her.

Magda has been a great instructor, calm, patient and friendly. Really made my learning experience alot more enjoyable and less nerve wracking. Would highly recommend Magda as a driving instructor. Thank you!

Started to drive with Magda july 2018 and passed today dirst time! Very patient and friendly instructor id strongly reccomend

Magda is an amazing instructor. I passed my driving test at first time.

She is knowledgeable, kind and encouraging from the very first lesson till my last one. Throughout my experience with Magda I found it really easy to get along with her. Her welcoming personality made driving enjoyable.

Her lessons covers all testing routes and many other roads inside testing area. Therefore, I have learned and practised all the scenarios that I may encounter in the test and later in my real life. During each lesson, she explained every single mistake and incorrect reaction that I made. We spent every single minute together to improve my driving skill not only for passing a test but also to comprehend a living skill.

Therefore, I feel so lucky to take her enjoyable and efficient driving lessons.

Thank you so much Magda for helping me pass. You are an incredible instructor.
On a scale from 1 to 10, you're an 11. She is accommodating and professional.
I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for driving lessons.

Thank you Magda for the lessons and advises. I am glad that I passed my test, thanks to you. You are an amazing teacher and it’s been a pleasure.

Fantastic encourager and very knowledgeable! Goes above and beyond!

Megan was absolutely amazing, I started learning with here a few months ago with plenty of things to work on, and left with my license on my first try !! I could not recommend her more to anyone, she is nice and polite and just a pleasure to be around. Let’s not forget how great of an instructor she is !!

I had an amazing experience getting back to driving with Magda’s support. She was always patient with me and teaching me everything about the roads in the UK and roundabouts. I feel so much more confident to get out of the road by myself now. And I will be forever grateful for that.

Magda is amazing! She is so kind and friendly and she helped me to overcome my nerves when driving. I was so happy when I passed! ?

Magda is a fantastic instructor, who helps you constantly improve every lesson. No matter how many mistakes I made she stayed patient till I mastered that thing she worked on with me. I am very happy with her services.

Thank you Magda for teaching me how to be a good and a safe driver. Magda is the best instructor you could ever had, she super nice and very patient. She has good communication skills and l would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a driving instructor. Thanks again!!

I want to thank Magda one more time, and I’d say I’m really lucky I had such good instructor as she is. Magda is really patient and caring about her students. I was so nervous while driving, but she could find the way to calm me down all the time. Definitely I’ll recommend Magda to everyone who’s looking for driving instructor, because she’s the best one?

#Magda

Glory to God for the good works and to Magdalene. She has been soo amazing teacher. She teaches with passion and ready to point out every mistake and make sure you correct it. She is so amazing. I recommend Magdalene to anyone if you want to pass your driving practice at the first attempt.

Thanks and Thanks again. I’m soo happy ???

Magda is a great instructor! She helped me pass my test first time with NO minors!! Her style of teaching is great and she’s really helped build my confidence on the road. I would recommend her to anyone, thank you again. :)

I could not recommend anyone better than Magda when you're learning to drive. After experimenting with three different instructors, I finally found myself someone with patience, positivity, commitment and most importantly perseverance. Admittedly I get extremely nervous, but magdas presence always put me at ease! One of the nicest/ funniest ladies who helped me to thoroughly enjoy driving after three failed attempts. She's great!

From the very first day, Magdalena was very calm and gentle but intentional about her tutoring. She was very patient and never failed to encourage me with phrases like 'good job" "well done" and when I didn't do so well she corrected me with love and respect.
Today her excellent teaching paid off and I am a qualified driver.
Thank you Magdalena!
I strongly recommend Magdalena 👍

Honestly the best instructor I could have asked for! Magda is one of the loveliest people I’ve met and was always so patient on my lessons. I’ll definitely miss all the stories she told in my lessons!

Magda very supportive, professional, patient, positive attitude and an excellent instructor.Im thankful for good guidance and helping me out to pass my practical test. Thank you very much

Magda is the best instructor you can ever have. Not only is she is knowledgeable and patient, she actually cares about her student’s progress. I am more than happy recommending her to family and friends. She’s an absolute star!

Rob was fantastic and really helped me get to where I needed to be with ease, I was really struggling with parallel parking and it wasn't until he broke it down to the bare minimum that it finally clicked. Now I am an expert and it is all thanks to Rob

I passed my driving test first time with only 2 minors, thank you very much Magda for being so friendly, kind and for believing in me. I appreciate all your help!

Just want to say huge THANK YOU Magda for your patience, hard work and a constant cheerful mood. Thank you for praising my success and telling me off my mistakes.

Test tip of the month for Wellingborough

You can fail your test for driving too slow or too fast. Don't make sudden changes if you sense the examiner is looking over at your speedo. Just gently come off the gas or gently apply more depending on if you are going too slow or fast.

Useful driving test tip for Wellingborough Show more

Useful driving test tip for Wellingborough

When overtaking cyclists on faster roads, consider leaving more space than the minimum (1 metre). Apply the MSPSL routine nice and early, signal in good time and anticipate any unusual sudden movements by the cyclist. If they are looking over their shoulder, they might be thinking about changing direction.

Frequently asked questions...

Where do beginners start their driving lessons in Wellingborough?

Learners coming to us at the complete beginner stage will often start their driving lessons off in residential or industrial areas, away from busy main roads where there's lots of traffic. One of these areas is the Finedon Road Industrial Estate where there are quite a few long, straight and wide roads to pick up the basics of getting the car going and stopping again. With lots of side roads to turn into, there is plenty of opportunity to progress onto left and right turns as well as T-junctions.

Where do I do my lessons if I already have experience?

More experienced learner drivers with a few hours under their belts, may find themselves tackling some of the test routes in Wellingborough, including the 60mph A509, involving a number of medium to large roundabouts and junctions. You may also head into the centre of Wellingborough, where you could face a number of one-way streets and busier traffic.

There's absolutely nothing to worry about though. Our experienced driving instructors will cover all of this in depth with you to ensure you're comfortable and ready to conquer all types of road and junctions.

Does Wellingborough have a driving test centre?

Yes, Wellingborough does have a driving test centre, and you will likely take your driving test here. Our driving instructors in Wellingborough are test route experts so they can help you pass quickly and confidently.

Recently, learners have found it increasingly difficult to find a driving test at the Wellingborough test centre. However, you can usually find a driving test in Kettering. If you are still trying to get a test in Wellingborough, then Kettering is a great location to take your test as our instructors can take you for your test here, but they can also help you learn the routes and roads beforehand.

Can I have automatic driving lessons in Wellingborough?

Yes, you can. We offer both manual and automatic driving lessons in Wellingborough. You can choose to jump straight into automatic lessons or you can start with manual and switch at any point if you decide that manual isn't for you. We have some fantastic manual and automatic driving instructors in Wellingborough who will help you pass fast either way!
