Reviews of London Driving School

L. G.

Manny is such an amazing driving instructor from day 1 I had never driven a car to passing first time! Manny is calm and explains things in a way that makes it so simple and easy to understand. He is also very flexible with times and as the exam day came closer he made times for me to ensure that I was at my best driving ability for the exam. Couldn’t have asked for a better instructor 10/10!!! Highly recommend!

A. H.

Really excellent instruction. Flexible on timings and helped me to get a test within a couple weeks! Committed to giving you every ounce of value in the time, knowledgeable about the test centres and gave lots of helpful advice. Not to mention just generally being a good teacher and helping me improve as a driver! Also a lovely guy who you don’t mind spending a few hours in a car with - not to be underestimated. All in all c VERY highly recommended!

D. A.

Manny is an absolutely fantastic driving instructor. Super patient, clear, calm and encouraging. He got me driving at a good standard in no time and helped me gain confidence on the roads despite being quite nervous at first. The whole time he was extremely professional, punctual and communicative, as well as being a total pleasure to spend time with. I'd recommend him to anyone who wants to learn to drive, and am already recommending him to my friends.

W. R.

Honestly a great experience, coming back to driving after time out Manny was professional and patient. He explained complex manoeuvres in an easy to understand manner and helped build confidence in taking the practical test. Great experience overall and ultimately getting the result we wanted.

E. C.

Manny has been the best instructor I’ve ever had. He is patient, calm and gives really clear direction on what you need to work on. All manny’s practical techniques helped me build confidence to past my test first time. 10/10 instructor! Thank you much!!

S. A.

I really enjoyed the lessons given by Manny. His instructions were quite useful and effective, helping me to pass the practical driving exam first time. I absolutely recommend him as a reliable and well-experienced instructor. Thanks Manny.

l. k.

Manny has been an amazing instructor. He’s very calm and makes you feel confident. He is great at teaching, very easy to get along with and gets you through your test quickly. Thank you Manny!

B. F.

Learning to drive can be daunting initially however Manny has a calming demeanour about him that makes complex things seem simple. He clearly has a lot of experience when it comes to driving and this shows throughout the lessons. Flexibility with lessons times and making time for me to ensure I was best prepared for my test are just a couple of the many great moments Manny has done for me throughout. I highly recommend Manny as a driving instructor.

A. S.

Best driving school. They are really passionate about getting their clients to pass. Great service. Gibril was very professional and dedicated. I will recommend them. Nothing bad to say to be fair.

K. S.

Worked with Gibril after changing several driving instructors and finding exam anxiety very difficult to handle. He was extremely helpful and encouraging, I passed the first test I took with him as my instructor. Would definitely recommend

J. D.

My instructor Gibril is friendly, polite and made me feel at ease behind the wheel. He’s instructions are clear and easy to follow. I would definitely recommend him if you are serious about getting your license.

y. a.

Gibril Was very professional, polite, friendly and funny too. I was relaxed when I was driving with him and he explained everything I needed to know about my practical test and guess what I PASSED my test at one go, am glad it was him that took me to my test this morning. Thank you so so much, P.S my younger sister is definitely coming to you when she’s ready. Thanks once again ✌️

Really nice driving school, and Gibril is a great instructor. He explained all aspects of the test process, showed all maneuvers, and I passed from the first time. 100% recommend!

p. P.

I passed my driving test many years ago and then didn’t drive at all. I, therefore, needed an instructor who could refresh my driving skills and also provide me with the confidence I needed to start to drive on my own. Gibril did that for me and was a great instructor - very knowledgeable, polite, professional and calm. He talked me through everything and helped me to re-learn at my own pace without any pressure thereby giving me back the confidence I lacked. I would 100% recommend him to anyone who wanted to learn to drive.

C. R.

Gibril and the rest of the London Driving School are awesome! Gibril is professional, respectful and an excellent instructor. He is open to letting the driver guide some of the lessons, as well as giving credible and insightful tips on driving around the UK. I wasn’t so confident with doing manoeuvres like parrallel parking, but Gibril gave me detailed and concise tips to achieve a perfect manoeuvre and advanced road skills. He has a positive attitude, yet firm enough to ensure I understood the rules of the road. I was able to pass my driving test first time with Gibril and the London Driving School 🙌🏾

R. A.

I was referred by a friend and is definitely the best decision I’ve made instructor wise since learning to drive. Great service, my Instructor Gibril kept it very professional whilst allowing me to get comfortable. 5* service

Amazing instructors - really patient, clear and helpful. Couldn’t have asked for a better instructor & would 110% recommend. Really flexible on times and taught me how to drive well and be confident on the road. A* teaching thank you so much!!!

M. N.

A big thank you to my instructor Gilbril. he is very patient, understanding and special he makes me feel relaxed. He is very friendly and good listener. He will not only teach you to pass your driving test but to be a good drive 👍👍👍👍

V. E.

Manny was the best instructor I could have asked for! I was a complete beginner learning manual, and he was so patient, clear and reassuring throughout. I passed first time thanks to him and his wise words! Wouldn't hesitate to recommend him.

R. O.

Passed today 1st time with Gibril! This guy is a true professional at what he does. His knowledge, time keeping, approach and reassurance really helped me out. I would highly recommend Gibril from LDS to anyone looking to learn how to pass their test 1st time and have an enjoyable time learning. - gonna miss you Gibs ❤️🙏🏾

J. R.

I’m grateful to Manny And Gibril for helping me to pass my driving. The best driving school ever. I recommend you guys to learn from them and you will pass. Gibril is always on time before the lesson starts. Very professional people.

My driving instructor Gibril was informative and entertaining in offering helpful advice and was patient when correcting my mistakes, to help me pass on my second try. I was driving overly cautious and found it hard to be comfortable driving, but he pushed me to overcome that! Thank you ! :) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

L. A.

-really patient, clear and helpful. Couldn’t have asked for a better instructor & would 110% recommend. Really flexible on times and taught me how to drive well and be confident on the road. GIBRIL thank you so much!!! You are the best 🙏

c. L.

Thanks to my instructor Gibril I passed my driving test first time with flying colours, wouldn’t be possible with out the help of my instructor, he made sure every lesson we had we worked hard. Gibril made me very comfortable driving as he never made me feel any question was too silly. Very professional with the timekeeping and every lesson with Gibril felt like I improved a lot. I recommend anyone who is going to do their driving test to do their lessons with London Driving School.

M. O.

Passed 1st time with Gibril! Had some memorable moments learning how to drive but also how to be safe and comfortable behind the wheel. The time between my first lesson and test date was a relatively short time compared to other cases I’ve heard, but Gibril and I weren’t shocked that I passed because with each lesson I had, I left with more confidence & knowledge about the roads and how to operate the car more effectively. Thanks Gibril :)

R. L.

I booked lessons with London driving school and had Gibril as my instructor. Very happy the way Gibril, professional techniques helped me pass my test with only one minor. Highly recommend 👍🏻

D. Y.

Thank for Gibril support. It’s very good learning experience. He is so nice and on time every lesson. Finally thank bro let me pass!!!

J. R.

Manny is an excellent driving instructor! He is calm and offers perfect advice and guidance. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to pass your test first time. Thank you Manny!

J. A.

I learned to drive with Manny in a manual. He is an extremely kind and patient instructor, and was brilliant at helping build up my confidence. I learned intensively in 10 lessons and passed first time which feels like a huge achievement in London. I felt like I was completely prepared by the time my test came around and that is down to his excellent instruction. He was also good at gauging how many hours I needed after my first lesson - turned out I didn’t need the 39 hours I self assessed I needed (I did it in 24). Thanks Manny!

T. M.

Gibril gave me some refreshers lessons and really increased my confidence before my test. He was very knowledgeable and patient with me. I would highly recommend Gibril if you want to pass your test!

L. J.

Great instructor! Will definitely recommend to anyone interested in recieving quality lessons and wanting to pass their driving test.

A. D.

My instructor Gabriel was great throughout my experience of learning well worth it.

L. P. C.

Instructor went above and beyond for me. I was a late booking and with time running out, he squeezed in lessons (including having to meet up at 5:30am) to give me the best possible opportunity to pass. And I did! Highly recommend!!

P. G.

Manny is honestly and very good driving instructor and I learnt so much in a short amount of time and passed first time 😎

L. W.

My instructor was called Gibril. One word AMAZING This guy went above and beyond to make sure I passed. if you’re in the South East area make sure to try and get him. Would 100% recommend this company (London Driving School) and this instructor (Gibril) to friends and family.

B. H.

Manny was absolutely fantastic, with great tools and tricks to get you feeling more comfortable and to get you to pass. He’s always on time, in good spirits and patient. Never once felt panicked with him in the passenger seat

Manny is the best teacher ever. I was really nervous when I first started driving but quickly became confident thanks to his help. I really appreciate how he doesn’t make you feel small when you make a mistake but instead just calmly explains what went wrong and how to improve it. Overall I 100% would recommend to everyone. 10/10

A. O.

Manny is the best instructor ! I had the best driving journey experience with him. I was very nervous in the beginning and he built my confidence. He was very encouraging and wasted no time In helping me pass my driving test. Would 100% recommend. Thank you manny for all the support

G. V.

Emmanuel was such a down to earth and good guy. He really knows his stuff. He teaches you excellent systems and makes driving a pleasure! I passed 1st time! He is patient and attentive. I would recommend him to anyone. He is the kinda guy that anyone can get on with. Good luck for the future Emmanuel I wish you nothing but prosperity!

N. T.

London Driving School aka ‘Manny‘ has by far been the best driving experience. His quality of teaching and patience was just perfect. Having failed my test first time through another school, he built my confidence back up and had me on the road within weeks!. Cannot thank him and his team enough. Would HIGHLY recommend. London Driving school pass rates are incredible also. Thank you so so much.

N. I.

I went to London driving school after having a bad experience with another driving instructor after it was recommended by a friend. Manny was great, he was very supportive and turned my confidence in driving around completely. More than satisfied with the service, I always recommend to family and friends when I can!

Emmanuel was a great teacher! He broke things down really clearly, making the skills needed to pass my test easy to understand and put into practice. He was also super friendly and I felt at ease asking questions. Thanks very much for helping me pass my test!

N. R.

Emmanuel is a natural teacher, he's calm, relaxed and a great explainer of things. He also knows the systems, handling everything to do with booking and getting ready for the test and making sure you're ready. He's reliable and flexible. I had failed a previous test but Emmanuel just got me through this. I'm a much better driver now because of him.

A. D.

I passed today, FIRST TIME & it’s all because of London Driving School. Best service I promise you ! Taught me as a beginner everything I need to know and did not fail to help me even more when I needed help. I highly recommend this driving school to anyone and you will not regret it ❤️

H. B.

I was very pleased with the service provided by Emmanuel. I had already had a terrible experience with another driving instructor so I felt extremely demotivated and skeptical however, Emmanuel was so professional, patient, punctual and to top it off, he made the driving lessons enjoyable. Feelings of skepticism and fear were very quickly overcome with a sense of confidence - all due to the encouragement of Emmanuel. I would most definitely recommend London Driving School. It is worth every penny!

m. b.

I just passed my driving test and I am so happy. I booked 10 hours with Emmanuel who coached me and prepared me for the test. I was so nervous but he reassured me and guided me step by step. Emmanuel is a natural teacher, patient and provides the best customer care and service. Thank you Emmanuel!

Z. Z.

Finally I passed my driving test! Very big thanks to Manny for contrivng this breakthrough. I'm intrigued by the way he delivered his trainings; very professional, incisive and succinct. He talked me out of self-destruct- making my own rules in my head and being nervous. Taking that point on board translated into this pass certificate and I'm so thankful for it. YES!! I'll recommend Manny for your driving lessons- he is very good!

H. D.

Emmanuel is an excellent instructor! I booked 10 hours of lessons with him and from the very first lesson he was fantastic. He is very patient, explains things well and also creates a very relaxed learning environment. Definitely worth the price. I can’t rate this company enough. Thank you again Emmanuel for helping me pass my test!

Emmanuel is a great instructor - during the lessons I felt at ease and his teaching style made me a lot more confident behind the wheel. In addition, he was very honest and transparent about what he thought it would take for me to pass my test and I succeeded on the first try. Will definitely recommend to friends and family :-)

C. S.

I was a nervous beginner and was not confident but I have to say Emmanuel was so calm and understanding. He taught me how to regain my confidence and trust that I will learn and get better. I passed my test first time which I didn’t think I would do but it was all down to him. He is a wonderful teacher and I would recommend him over and over again. If you want to be taught by the best go through the London Driving School.

C. E.

The London Driving School was by far worth every penny. Till this day I can’t believe I passed my test manually first time and that is all thanks to Emmanuel. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for an instructor. Emmanuel you saw my potential and was always prompting me to book my test whilst others encouraged me to switch to automatic, thank you for being kind, punctual and most of all patient. Cherish

Z. S.

London driving school is the best place to go if you want to learn how to drive at a fast pace. The driving instructors are really friendly which helps you feel comfortable and at ease while driving. They’re affordable and they’re professionalism is at a high standard. I’d definitely recommend them to anyone who is looking for the ultimate driving lessons experience!

E. D.

Instructor was amazing- schedules lessons really well (will tell you if you don't need additional lessons you've paid for even) and prepares you for the test in plenty of time- can't say enough nice things about him!!

E. J.

I'd recommend Emmanuel to anyone learning to drive - he's a great teacher! I tried three different teachers before starting with Emmanuel and was really struggling. Emmanuel was so patient and calm and kind, he really built up my confidence and knew what would help me learn. He taught me how to pass the test, but more importantly, he taught me how to drive so I could do it on my own after I'd passed.

A. R.

Emmanuel (aka Manny) is a superb instructor! I remember I had a few lessons with Emmanuel. He pushed me to get my theory test out of the way and stopped me from having further lessons as he knew I was ready. Emmanuel has a very keen eye and clear method of teaching so clear that i passed my practical the first time! 100% Reliable, 100% Clear, 100% Friendly. Great company and Im sure whoever is taught by Manny and team will have great success.

D. A.

Manny is one of the best driving instructor you could ever get, I felt confident every time I had a lesson with Him. When I felt like giving up he would always push me and remind me that I can do it. I recommend manny to everyone! Emmanuel so good at his job and try's to do anything he can to make sure what's best for you is done. Thank you for everything, your the best!

A. K. O.

Before i linked up with manny in 2014 i had failed my test 3 times i finally passed January 14th 2014. Top instructor! before Manny i went through 5 different instructors including one in northampton. He really takes his time so you understand the essence of driving and he understood my issues just by watching. Which were literally all nerves. Now my brother needs a driving instructor and i had to hunt for this guys number 😅 my brother has failed one test already so i told him i need to link him with Manny. I would Highly recommend!

Amazing instructor. I recommend Emmanuel to everyone, he’s so chilled, amazing at explain stuff and also an amazing person. Can’t believe how much I learned and how easy it was to actually book lessons and talk to Manny (My instructor). Price is amazing for the level of service 😍 honestly recommend this driving school

C. W.

Best experience I ever had w/ London Driving School!! The professionalism & the positivity they give you is amazing! It took me 4 times to finally pass my test but the encouragement I was given helped me in the end lol!! 110% recommended anyone who’s looking for an instructor to use them :)

M. T.

I went through a few driving schools and instructors before I started lessons with Emmanuel at London driving school. FINALLY!! an instructor that isn’t after your pocket but instead wanted me to pass with as few lessons as possible. He is the best instructor by light years. His style and patience was excellent. Thanx to him I passed the first time with ease. I just wish I didn’t waste my money previously with other money hungry instructors.

M. C.

Manny and London Driving School are fantastic! I went to him after I had my license but had been off the road for a while so was worried about getting back on the road especially in London! 😱 He was very reassuring. Helped me brush up my driving skills and actually taught me things I didn’t know first time around 🤦🏾‍♀️ I would definitely recommend for first timers and returning drivers. I have been sending everyone I know his way and all of them have given me great feedback about the recommendation. Wishing him all the success because it’s nice to see someone truly care about what they do and helping people 😊

C. S.

The service provided was astounding, I was really impressed in terms of professional ethics such as The effective communication during the process which allowed me to be at ease whilst building my confidence and seeing my progress gradually before we planned for my test which I passed first time :), Thank you London driving school. I will definitely be recommending family & Friends.

S. M.

Passed first time with minimal lessons, due to my instructor observing my weakness over my strengths and focusing on those flaws to make sure I pass and improve my driving skill. Amazing feeling when you get that certificate in your hand knowing you pass and most definitely I am recommending to anyone and everyone. What a way to start 2020 with a new license and being able to legally drive. Thank you

t. a.

Emmanuel is one of the best instructor ever !!! He’s easy to get along with and extremely comfortable to be around. Emmanuel always believed in me, even when I didn’t believe in myself. He always pushed me to my full potential. Emmanuel is an excellent teacher, who takes the time out to ensure his student understood everything. If is wasn’t for manny, I wouldn’t have a license. Thank you soooo much !!!

E. O.

What can I say? The service was top notch and Emmanuel is by far the best instructor I had. Made things and and simple, made me pass in no time. Would recommend Emmanuel to anyone. Professional and genuinely passionate in teaching!!! 5 Star

T. C.

After losing faith that I’d ever pass my driving test after having many driving instructors who either had no patience or seemed to be in for the money. I heard about Emmanual and loads of people he had past 1st time. When meeting him I had told him my theory was going to run out in a number of weeks after having 1 class with him, he told me to book my test and in the short period I had to pass he made me feel comfortable and much more confident in my driving. Then when it came to my test date I passed! He is genuine, honest and highly recommended.

A. M.

Emmanuel is brilliant instructor and a thoroughly nice guy. He was flexible on timings of lessons and had countless tips and tricks to ensure a quick and painless process. Would definitely recommend.

A. M.

10/10 service my instructor Emanuel worked intensely with me to achieve my licence he was extremely attentive to detail , encouraging and professional throughout . I would definitely recommend and use these services in the near future . Ideal for anyone looking to learn to drive no matter the amount of experience gained previously. Thank you once again Manny !!

A. K.

Although I had experience on a motorbike, Abdul Kareem (the instructor) helped me transfer those skills very quickly, the lessons totalled to about 6 days of driving and I passed right after. Abdul Kareem makes you feel comfortable to progress, he doesn’t put you down if you make a mistake, he just tells you what needs attention without delay. I would definitely recommend. He’ll get you the pass if you really want it.

A. K.

I’m very happy I’ve chosen this school, my driving instructor Gibril was very professional and polite, with his help I’ve managed to upgrade my driving skills quite fast, lessons were easy and enjoyable yet informative and productive

R. H.

Manny helped me pass my test as I had to resit my driving test as my licence got revoked Only needed 4 lessons and passed 1st time. This instructor is the best around town very patient and won’t waste your time or money Top Man!

P. D.

This Driving School really is the best out there!!! I had been driving with AA and I’d found that they were only in it for the money as they prolonged every step by more than what was needed but Once I was referred to Emmanuel I didn’t regret my choice he helped build my Confidence quickly and made sure i got my licence I’ve been driving ever since thanks London Driving School!!!

K. E.

I highly recommend this driving school, the instructor is very down to earth and will give you the confidence needed to start driving. Definitely 5* service and can guarantee that you will be on the roads driving safely in no time!

j. t.

Manny is one of the best Driving instructors in south west London a lot of ppl I know has passed their test with him. He’s very good at what he does and he’s got the best teaching techniques. Big up to Manny my brother

I am very happy with the service from London driving school, I wouldn’t have been able to pass so quickly without the help of Emanuel (Manny), he cares about the individual and not the money, his best interest is yours, and I would happily recommend this school to anyone!! (Ask for Manny)!!!

r. p.

Excellent instructor! Emmanuel is clear and patient and was supportive from the first lesson right through to passing. Top instructor, definitely recommend.

T. X.

This instructor is a great teacher; he’s not in it for the money. I managed to pass first time & he made sure I was keeping up to my lesson. If you set yourself a target to head towards, he’ll make sure you accomplish them before your test. I would highly recommend him to anyone that’s looking for a good instructor.

S. S.

I’ve had 6 different driving instructors and Manny’s was the best! Passed first time with manny! Amazing and professional, and felt so confident.
