  I had a wonderful time with Wheelers driving school from start to finish. My driving instructor (Jo) was very professional, knowledgeable, friendly, highly experienced and provided clear and concise feedback that helped me improve my driving skills and pass my test first time with only two minors. She was patient, encouraging, supportive and focused on ensuring that I felt confident and comfortable behind the wheel. The best instructor I could ever have!

  The patience, care and detail put into every lesson help me become a better driver and person. I first started with Jeff who was very thorough with the technical side of the car and details to help me understand the car, Jeff’s diagrams help you understand what you need to be doing, how, where, when and why! I was also taught how to use the lane assist and about the sensors in the steering wheel and the cruise control when on the dual carriageway and motorways and the use of the speed limiter, which became my favourite gadgets of the car. Jeff is very patient and through in his teaching to insure you are learning the correct way and that you drive to the best of your own abilities safely. I can honestly say that Jeff and Nes are the nicest and caring people and try to help you in the best way’s possible and they will try to be flexible if you need to rearrange lessons. Thank you, Jeff, and Nes helping me achieve my goal in passing my test. I’m so glad I choose to learn with WHEELERS. I see there is a negative review and I wouldn’t take any notice of it because WHEELERS will always be honest and truthful to you and teach you the correct way to drive a car and to keep you safe.

  My first 2 to 3 lessons with Wheelers were pure theory about the car's inner workings. There was no driving involved. The instructor (Jeff) asked me a series of technical questions and drew numerous diagrams. These lessons were a waste of money. In one lesson, Jeff told me that my sweat would damage the "steering wheel sensors". When I challenged this, I pointed out that he has to use moist medical wipes to clean the car's contact points. Jeff denied that his wipes' moisture would cause damage to the "steering wheel sensors" but failed to elaborate. Wheleers' past response to my original review didn't fully address issues such as Jeff's: - lies about the steering wheel sensors - refusal to enter and wait in the apartment block if concerned about waiting on double yellows - belittling manner and bullying - failure to consider my disability (autism) Wheelers' past response showed how dishonest Jeff and Nese are. When Jeff refused to enter my apartment block, he insisted that we begin our lessons at the local grocery superstore (much more than "100 yards down the road"). The irony is that Jeff has been caught parking on double yellow lines, which is in violation of The Highway Code that Jeff/Nese continually refer to. Jeff was a bully during my lessons. He lied about many things. Nese pathetically threatened legal action against me as revenge for my reporting Wheelers and Jeff to the DVSA. Practically every positive review on here is duplicated across other Wheelers business pages. Do not learn to drive with Wheelers.

  This is a well regarded South East London school and I was pointed here through a few friendly recommendations. Jo was my instructor and she’s fantastic. Very thorough, safety first and a great teaching ability which helps to make things stick. Worth every penny and is clearly a school that prides itself on quality. Passed first time at one of the UK’s “toughest” centres but I felt confident going into my test having had weeks learning from Jo and getting my proficiency up to test standard way ahead of my test. Spoke to a couple of others at the school whilst figuring out when I could fit in to the schedule and they are all a really friendly bunch. Couldn’t recommend enough, competitively priced and worth every penny given the thoroughness of the learning program.

  Passed 1st time all thanks to Jo and Ness, driving lessons were always fun with a calming environment, couldn't recommend them enough!! Jo would always reassure and explain through things in ways that makes it dead easy understand, she's made my lessons unforgettable with little tips and tricks and of course her great sense of humour and laid back vibe. She finds ways to adapt the lessons to someone's liking which I absolutely loved. Never had a problem with arranging lessons and times, 10/10!! Amazing driving school!

  I had my manual driving lessons with Jeff and passed the first time! He was very patient and explained everything thoroughly so you fully understand how the car works and not just learning how to drive. When it was coming up to my test he took the time out of his Saturdays to help me practice when I was unable to drive during the weekdays. He really made me feel confident and ready before going to the test which really helped calm my nerves. Thanks so much!

  Definitely 5/5. I passed first time with Wheelers with only a couple of minors. Jeff is an incredible instructor. He is patient, and goes the extra mile to thoroughly explain the ins and outs that are required for his pupils to become safe drivers that feel confident on the road. He explains things and makes you practice as many times as needed, adapting to your learning style. Wheelers was also very accommodating when I had to reschedule lessons. It was very easy to keep in touch and always very quick to reply. Thanking Nese for all her help and flexibility! P.S. Thank you so much, Jeff! Will miss the jokes on the road! ✨
