I started my driving lessons with Pual from August. I have just past my test on Friday on my first attempt.Pual is a very reliable instructor, he always points out all my mistakes through my driving at the same time he gives me the confidence I need too. I highly recommend Pual to be your next driving instructor.

An excellent driving instructor. Paul really looked after me following a previous bad experience with a driving instructor. He was able to give me the time and right tools to eventually pass my exam. He made sure to tailor the lessons in my own needs and was always prompt and extremely organised.I would not have passed my exam without his help and support. Highly recommended!!

I truly appreciate your professionalism and the way you tailored the lessons to my needs. Your guidance has given me the confidence I needed to drive safely and independently.

Paul is fantastic! I was a super nervous driver having failed before. Paul helped me get my confidence back and I managed to pass with only three minors. He’s a great person to get along with and he teaches you great driving techniques for all the tricky parts of the test.

Massive thanks for sunil helping me get test ready and pass first time! Always had a great chat with him during the lessons and he made it engaging. Every time I slipped up he always made sure that I pick up on my mistakes whilst also making it fun and informative so I brush up and remember important pointers ready for the big test day.

Would definitely recommend him as a driving instructor, very welcoming and encouraging down to the very end. 10/10 !

I was incredibly anxious to learn to drive and did not expect to be manouvering around busy roads within the first hour! Paul is a fantastic teacher who made me feel capable and confident, with his calm manner and explaining everything with great clarity. If you are considering driving lessons then I highly recommend that you book a lesson with Paul = ]

Paul is a great instructor! He is able to teach lessons tailored to you and how you learn which is very helpful. He keeps you calm in the car and is very clear with his explanations which is very helpful and appreciated with a first time driver! The level of safety he goes to not only for those in the car, but for pedestrians etc, is one of a kind and something very few of my friends have found in their other instructors, this makes you feel even more safe in the car. Would definitely recommend to others!

When I first got in touch with drive Johnsons they gave me a start date and told me an instructor would be in contact a few days before my first lesson but the same day I had a message from Paul and he was able to bring my start date forward by 2 weeks! Paul is a great instructor who lets you take control of your own learning and is able to adapt his teaching strategies in which suits you best. He is not only a really patient instructor but he is also easy to get on with and quickly makes you feel at ease and builds your confidence. Couldn’t thank Paul enough for his support and help! I passed my test first time! Highly recommend! Thanks Paul!

I really enjoyed my 1st lesson with Paul, he made me feel relaxed and at ease, i can't wait for my next lesson, thank you so much Paul

Sunil is an incredible drivibg instrcutor, couldn't have asked for anyone better! Hes super friendly and really chill to have, made me feel at ease at every lesson and is overall very encouraging. Thank you so much for all your help and guidance Sunil!

I was recommended Drive Johnsons through a few of my friends who have gone with yourselves. Sunil definitely met my expectations. His car was great and I really got on with Sunil himself. Thank you Sunil for helping me through everything.

Sunil is a very friendly and relaxed driving instructor, who is very encouraging. Sunil was very patient and helped me pass my test. If your looking for a drving instructor sunil
Is your man!

Paul is a great instructor he is great with helping you with your nerves full of great information and strategies to help you learn he had me test ready in no time and today I passed my test 1st time I highly recommend Paul as a driving instructor

Sunil is an amazing instructor. Always had confidence in me when I didn’t have any myself. He didn’t have any doubts in me passing my test first time and I did pass first time. I have and would definitely recommend Sunil to anyone wanting to drive. I couldn’t have asked for a better instructor!

Safe to say, if you're looking for an instructor who is patient and understanding, Paul is the one. I had a great first driving lesson today and it couldn't have gone better, he is very supportive and always explains exactly what he is doing thoroughly and if you don't understand anything, he will always make sure you do, highly recommended :)

So you can teach an 'old dog new tricks', or Paul can! I was very nervous about learning to drive and Paul put me at my ease with his calm, unflappable manner. This is because he helped me to believe in myself and find the virtuous circle, not the vicious. He can help you too because he gets to know and understands how to help you best and if you need to stop and reset yourself after a mistake or two, he let's you. I passed my test first time with only one minor fault.

Paul is a very good instructor, made me feel calm and confident, I passed my test first time so just proves how good a instructor he is.

I can't thank Sunil enough for his huge support and his dedication.I would highly recommend him as a driving instructor!
I was a very nervous driver and he put me at total ease and helped build my confidence.
Thanks a million ,I couldn't have done it without you....Thanx once again

Absolutely fantastic driving instructor, after a lot of tests my nerves got really bad but Paul helped me overcome this and now I have finally passed my test I could not recommend a better instructor truly fantastic ??

A very good instructor, calm and very friendly, helped me get my license with just one mistake. Thanks again Sunil??

Paul has been very helpful and supportive.
I passed my test first time and couldn’t have done it without him!
I would highly recommend Paul, as he takes your learning seriously and helps to build your confidence with driving.
Thank you soooo much!!

I had my first lesson with paul last weekend and was absolutely terrified... he put me completely at ease and helped me with everything at my own pace, i felt i was at my rate of learning and it was ok to make a mistake... looking forward to continuing my lessons with paul and hopefully we will see a pass sheet before we know it :)

Had my first driving lesson with Paul today. I've had a couple of different instructors previously but never felt very confident. After spending a couple of hours behind the wheel with Paul I feel so confident about learning, he explains why we do certain things and helps you understand how the car works. He doesn't take over the controls all the time but helps you to learn independence. He's very calm even when you make mistakes which is so useful. I'm actually enjoying learning now, which I never thought I would. Thanks Paul!

paul is a fabulous instructor and makes you feel at ease whilst driving especially if you're a new driver or haven't driven for a few months like myself. He is professional but also personable and takes the time to make sure his teaching styles fit your learning styles and goes at the pace of learning you ask for. He Makes you feel very comfortable at the wheel and a great knowledge of driving and the local area make him a cracking instructor always trying to find new a challenging routes to test your ability. I would 100% recommend him as you driving instructor! Thanks Paul ??

Yesterday we had 1st lesson ?Paul is really knows his job, he is very patient and will explain you as many times as you need. Can't wait for next lesson ?

Paul is an extremely professional, patient, empathic and friendly instructor. I had my first lesson with him today and his way of teaching made me feel very calm but confident at the same time . He gave constructive feedback throughout the lesson and then asked me what i'd like to cover on the next lesson. Cant recommend Paul enough!

I started with paul from scratch. I didn't have the first idea about driving. I failed twice due to nerves but passed third time with zero faults. Paul was a massive help. Not only did he fit in extra sessions but he helped me believe in myself. So thankful.

Excellent instructor, his Driving lessons helps you improve as you need, be a better driver and of course pass your driving test with ease. I would highly recommend you call him if you want to be a better driver.

The best lesson I've had. Really informative and supportive. Very encouraging. He was patient with me and helped me evaluate my strengths and weaknesses so we could work on targets for improvement. I can see myself making so much progress with Paul. After a year + of not doing lessons he really helped me ease back into it and recap my knowledge with neat tips and tricks to remember things.

Amazing and helpful instructor. His teaching is clear and well explained. He improved my driving skills to a quality standard.

Brilliant first lesson. Really happy to have Paul as an instructor, he made me feel confident and comfortable while driving. Would definitely recommend

Im so glad I came across this company from start to finish Sunil was a great help. I did a lot of lessons over the passed few years and new I had to pull my finger out. Came across Drive Johnsons which Sunil helped me through out and I FINALLY passed my practical test in Leicester. I am one happy women right now.

Paul is great instructor who is very good at explaining everything clearly and effectively. Gained a lot of tips on how to move off and keep the car in a good position. He offers a range of learning styles to fit students and overall a great instructor.
Can’t wait for the next lesson!

Just passed my manual driving test and could not have done it without Pauls help and guidance. His lessons were always strategic and well planned. He was quick in identifying which areas i was struggling with, and would then cater the lessons to better support my driving. He instructs in a professional manner and is always punctual. Paul helped me pass with minimal faults and I would definitely recommend him
im to family and friends!

He is the best at making you get the right track towards your achievements.
He will make get positive goals towards success.
Inshort he is best to learn with.

I passed first time with Sunil. He is so calm and collected, he always choses the right time to explain how to fix a mistake you’ve made. We got along well from the first lesson - I couldn’t have picked a better driving instructor!

An amazing driver instructor helped a lot with learning to drive and helped with confidence and to keep calm reliable and helps to work around people with work and collage would definitely recommend and thank you for helping me pass first time

A wonderful instructor with a really friendly and positive outlook to teaching and learning, thanks to Sunil’s guidance, hints and tips I was able to pass my test today with only 2 minors.
Highly recommend to any new learner…he is just purely brilliant

Sunil was the most amazing driving instructor. As a learner driver that was new to Leicester I was incredibly anxious about the test and driving in general - Sunil was amazing and helped to ease my worries and helped me pass and feel confident driving!

As a nervous passenger and even more nervous driver, Paul was patient with me and put me at ease on my first lesson. Would highly recommend! I'm actually excited about progressing and looking forward to another lesson.

Before Paul I had no confidence when it came driving, I have serious anxiety and could barely move a vehicle. Within 3 months he help me to gain confidence and today I passed my test first time with only 4 faults.
Highly recommended

Excellent driving instructor the sheer patience and approach to students with special educational needs was outstanding
Many thanks

I finally passed my test and all the credits go to Paul!! He's honestly an informative, patient, calm and encouraging instructor who really gives 100% in teaching his lessons. Would definitely recommend!

Paul made me feel comfortable and confident whilst learning to drive. Whilst highlighting any mistakes and focusing on them aswell anything I’ve done which helped me to pass my driving test.

I was a very nervous driver at first and i never thought i would pass my test but paul helped me out through my nervous phase and i started growing confidence and the progress i made in a small amount of time was amazing. Im so glad to have gone on to pass my test first time! I would recommend Paul to anyone as he will equip you with the tools you need to be a safe driver and pass the test.

I fully recommend Paul as an instructor to anyone. He is absolutely amazing! I had my driving test today and i was a little nervous, but he ran me through how the morning would look and made me feel at ease with his jokes. As a result of Paul's amazing skills and patience, I was able to pass my practical test FIRST TIME! He is an amazing instuctor and i couldn't have asked for anyone better to help me learn to drive - Thank u so much Paul :)

Paul is a great instructor who makes you feel at ease from the start. I was a bit anxious when I started my lessons but with his calm attitude after a couple of lessons i felt so much more confident. Would highly recommend! Passed my test with 3 minors today!!

With being an older learner I didn't how many lessons I would need but my instructor Sunil Assessed me and gave me accurate estimation which was right and I needed about 30 hours. I passed after 30 hours with great thanks to Sunil.

Test tip of the month for Wigston

It’s common when turning left at a blind T-junction to look right and only look left when the car goes into a new road. You will often get away with this, but now and again, something will be there, like a parked car or a pedestrian about to walk out. On your test, you’ll fail, and in real life, you’ll have a severe accident. Be sure to do the minimum observations for T-junctions: right, left, right and then look into the road before you emerge into it!

Useful driving test tip for Wigston Show more

Useful driving test tip for Wigston

When approaching a no entry sign, expect the examiner to say nothing unless there is more than one option on where to go. As you approach the no entry, the examiner will be ready to brake you if you aren’t slowing down and look as though you will miss the no entry. If you notice their foot or leg moving slightly, you possibly have 1-2 seconds to go in the correct direction before they use the dual controls.

Frequently Asked Questions

How will you make sure I get the most out of every lesson?

Each of your driving lessons in Wigston will be tailored to your driving requirements, especially if you start lessons with our 2-hour assessment. Lessons will begin on on roads like Durnford Road, which is long, wide and fairly quiet. Roads like this are the perfect place to pick up the basic driving skills like moving off, bringing the car to a stop, making right and left turns and stopping at and emerging at T-junctions. Wide roads are great for practising manoeuvres on.

What sort of roads will I be driving on during my lessons?

When you take your driving test in Wigston, it's likely you'll cover a range of different road types, considering the town is on the outskirts of Leicester. You'll most likely have to deal with both rural (country) roads like Countesthorpe Road and urban (town) roads like the A6 Glen Road and A563 Southfields Drive. Your driving instructor will cover all of these roads, ensuring you're adequately prepared for your big driving test day.
