I booked with Johnson's driving school in Milton Keynes. I did start with them, they gave me 2 hours a week.i did ask if i can do more courses a week, and he promise me to. After that, he didn't come for week, he was holiday. And after that 3 weeks didn't get me any slot. And i waste my time and my money with them.

I had a medical emergency with my daughter and gave my instructor 1:15 minutes advance notice of having to go to A&E. She was annoyed I had to go to A&E with my daughter and insisted on rescheduling for the same day whilst I would be at A&E and insisted the cancellation policy is 24 hours - no further option. I raised a complaint with DriveJohnsons with proof of A&E calls and Uber receipt but they refused to help further as its at the discretion of driving instructor. I lost £64 for a situation I couldn't control - no compassion whatsoever. Be careful with what you do here esp. if you are booked with Hatifa!

Appalling experience with driving instructor NAILA MANSOOR. Driving instructor to empty your pockets on lessons with no taught content. The instructor uses her phone during lessons, turns up late and doesn’t actually teach you anything; she wants to make a profit. I was not taught to complete cockpit checks, and the handbrake was always left down. How to do an emergency stop, moving away and stopping, safe positioning, mirrors (vision and use), anticipation and planning including MSM and PSL routines, how to use junctions, crossroads and slip roads. How to use rounadabouts safely and confidently as she would just grab the wheel or abruptly press the brake if I was in the wrong lane. I was not taught any of the manoeuvres including reversing and turning the car around. I was supposedly taught a parallel park but she lost temper after two attempts saying to leave this for another day. I could go on about the beyond poor experience. Customer service initially responded to my complaint but then allow Naila to make inadequate excuses which just proves I will not be the last pupil to suffer from poor experience and be out of pocket. “Helping pupils to learn to drive safely and pass fast is our speciality” clearly not. Avoid at all costs.

Was driving with Eduards, best teacher, very knowledgeable with deep understanding of every single niche in his field.

I had been taking lessons from drive Johnson winchester since last 3-4 months in automatic car. I took around 12 hours lesson. My instructor name is Juraj. As I have 5 years of driving experience from India, I can drive any type of car and know the lane discipline very well. Initial review of Juraj for me You just need couple of lessons then you are ready for the test. After 4 lessons, he was like you need 2 more lessons and you are ready for the test and he never let me drive on roundabout. He was keep saying you are great driver. One unusual behaviour I noticed, he always pressurise you a lot and made you think you literally don’t know anything, this makes him not a good instructor. He always talk about other things like running cars values, building.. which is not required at all and divert the mind of learner. At last when I was away 1 week from the booked test date. I forced him and told, I need lessons around roundabout. He started, saying you can learn it very well in 2 lessons However, After completing 2 lessons. He asked me to book 10 more lessons to learn about it. I was ready to take 4 more lessons but he said no you need 10 lessons, cancel your test, I won’t give you my car for test. I needed my license on the given date because my wife is pregnant and wanted to take care her. Please don’t take lessons from him. He will keep pressurising you to take more and more lessons and you won’t learn anything as well.

Best driving school that their is! I had a great time learning with them and my instructor always helped me to structure my lessons around my schooling and working hours. If you need to pass, make sure you learn with them!

It was great to learn with Drivejohnson and my instructor Ben Hampson. When my lessons began, I was terrified but thanks to Ben I was able to develop my skills and learn quickly and with confidence.

Getting taught by Drivejohnson was great as my instructor, Paul, made sure that I was constantly developing. Paul helped me to grow my confidence and my skills with every lesson, it allowed me to pass my test first time and get my own car after just 15 hours of lessons.

Fantastic experience!!!!! My first instructor with driveJohnsons was good, however, I preferred to learn with a male instructor. I asked the office to change and both the office and my old instructor were absolutely cool with my changing to a male instructor. I went on to pass first time with 2 minor faults so I was well chuffed. Big shout out to Rachel my first instructor and John my second instructor - both helped me massively.

I had a brilliant time learning with drivejohnsons and was recommended them by a friend from college. Thanks to my instructor Rob, I was able to pass my test on my first attempt and can now look into buying my own car.

I passed today with zero minors. Yes I repeat zero minors but I can honestly say this wouldn’t have been possible with my driving instructor Jeff Brooks. So big, big thank you to driveJohnson’s for allocating Jeff to me, you listened to my needs and you delivered me a great instructor. Thank you Jeff & DJ!

My daughter has done 20hrs of driving! Hasn’t come out of 3rd gear, hasn’t reversed, hasn’t bay parked, hasn’t parallel parked, hasn’t done an emergency stop, no merging, no country Rds, no a5 no 3 or 5 point turns and has only used magic rd abouts an absolute joke I will not be recommending to anyone!
