I passed my practical driving test today at Erith centre. I am very grateful to my instructor. Mr Niyaz Mohammad at 1st time driving school in plumstead. London. His words of encouragements, support and hard work helped me to pass my test. He was calm and patient with me throughout my lessons with him. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a competent Driving intrructor. Thank you. Niyaz xx

I had my lessons with Franco who was a great teacher and made it seem easy. I was not a confident driver to begin with but he made everything click into place very quickly. He's also a relaxed and funny guy to be around. Definitely recommend!

If you're lucky enough to get Franco as your instructor, like me you'll benefit from his vast experience and ability to explain things simply. He's genuinely one of the nicest guys I've met and a fantastically relaxed and experienced instructor, sure to unlock your driving potential. I can't recommend him highly enough! He guided me through to pass first time with little stress and I had a great time along the way.

I was given a driving instructor named Tom Readdy. His a decent guy, easy to get a long with, and a great instructor.
I learnt the basics quick and easy, then went into slightly more advanced things like parking, reversing around corners and on 50mph roads within the first 6 weeks. It was a blast to learn how to drive with Tom.
A few weeks in, we got on well. He reminded me off a close friend of mine, who would insult you for a laugh. It's what us lads do! :D
I aced my theory test first try, and then passed me practical test first try with 6 minor faults.
I owe it all to Tom he made the lessons a great learning experience.
If you can get a pick of instructors. I would advise driving with Tom, you won't regret it!

I would recommend First time to anyone looking to learn how to drive.I would also recommend my amazing instructor Shawn who helped me pass on my first go.I quickly became a confident driver because Shawn taught me how to relax, take control of the car and enjoy being on the road.I never thought that learning to drive would be so much fun!Thanks again for everything and anyone I know that is learning to drive will most definitely be with First time and Shawn.I would also like to recommend Shawn for all drivers with a disability.I was able to take on my practical test no problem because of that.

I have had negative experience with an independent instructor and this has reduced my self esteem thinking I can never know how to drive. I picked up myself and called Ist time and I was given this lovely instructor (shawn). He restored my self esteem, taught me in a friendly manner how to drive. We always laugh n crack jokes because he is a funny man. With shawn no dull moment. Even if u make mistake he corrects well without shouting and with good manners. I have passed my driving test and the examiner even commented that am a good driver. Thanks to shawn and ist time sch

I would 100% recommend 1st Time. My instructor Shawn was not only one of the coolest guys I had ever met but he taught me how to stay calm, safe and actually enjoy driving. I was always quite a nervous person when it came to driving and had always avoided it. Shawn made me realise that I could do it and now I am driving around in my very own little car. If you want to pass 1st time and have a laugh whilst doing it – ask for Shawn.

I'm happy I used "first time" for my driving test. My instructor, Shawn was recommended by the chief examiner at Belvedere test centre after several attempts. Shawn is cool, calm and collected; and with him it's a sure pass. Thumbs up fella.

Today I passed my driving test, 1st time. I am very happy. And I think it's due to a proper instructor who helped me very much, Mr Bijay P. Singh. His teaching was academical, based on UK driving standards with demonstrating books. He explained everything very well. He is the best!!!

Had a fantastic experience with 1st time. Passed my practical test from first attempt. The driving instructor, BJ, was absolutely fantastic, very patient, professional and a great teacher. Strongly recommend.

I've recently passed my first driving test with 1st Time and I feel great! My instructor Fred made sure that I familiarised myself with the area in which the driving test took place so the test was so pleasant as I knew the roads. He also taught me to drive properly to the standard required by the examiners. I never thought I would get parallel parking right but Fred helped me alot and now I'm perfect at it. The examiner was really impressed with my driving and even more impressed that I past at my 1st attempt. I would recommend 1st Time to everybody and especially my instructor Fred.

I’ve just passed my practical driving test! My lessons with 1st time have been great. I put special emphasis on my driving instructor Steve however because he IS the best instructor I could have asked for. He delivers his instructions in a clear and concise form which in my case ensured that there were no gaps in my knowledge. His personality helps to loosen up the atmosphere and not to mention his calm and patience which made me feel really relaxed while driving. Steve was a very huge contribution to why I managed to pass first time. If you going for 1st time, Steve O’Brien should be your first choice

I am really glad I have chosen 1st Time driving school as I passed my practical test without a problem from first time. I’ve gained brilliant driving experience and more confidence (especially when I needed the most - before exam). At the end of the lesson I was given feedback and techniques on how could I improve.
Anyone who is looking forward doing they test I would definitely recommend my instructor John, hi is friendly and knows what needs to be done.

I have had 2 previous negative experiences with instructors and a friend recommended Rob from 1st Time and he was brilliant! He gave me the confidence and all the knowledge I needed to pass and without him i wouldn't have passed first time which i did! i recommended him highly. If your looking for an instructor please go to 1st Time and ask for Rob!!
