Driving lessons with Sean

I had my driving lessons with Sean. I’ve had about 5-6 lessons and passed my test first time, everything I’ve been taught by Sean has been perfect, made me really confident about my driving. Would definitely recommend!

Driving Test success

My daughter who is 17 years old passed her driving test first time after taking lessons with Graham. He has been a really helpful and patient instructor and she has grown in confidence after taking lessons with him. Thanks to Graham and everyone at Alfie's Driving School, I would highly recommend them.

Instructor didn’t show up!…

Booked in a Driving lesson with Tony from Alfie Driving school near Hornchurch. Tony didn’t show up for the 9am lesson that was booked almost a week in advance because I didn’t reply to his confirmation message sent at 10:30pm the previous night. Such a bad experience and so unprofessional. Who sends a confirmation message at 10:30pm!? I was asleep by then! Nevertheless I replied when I woke up in the morning and called Tony a few times. But there was no answer. Very bad experience 0/10. Do not recommend the driving school to anyone. Alfie’s should strongly reconsider their take on professionalism and their choice of instructors.

First time!

I passed first time after taking an intensive course under Leon's watchful eye. Absolute legend!
A great and patient teacher can apparently perform miracles. 100% recommended!

Learn with Sean

Finally after learning on and off for nearly ten years, with three different instructors, I passed my driving test today with only 1 minor! Sean is by far the best instructor I’ve had, the results speak for themselves. Keeps you calm and at ease when learning. Highly recommend🙌🏼

Passing my automatic practical

I had automatic lessons with Omer starting March 2022, after previously having had two different manual instructors from different companies who were absolutely horrendous and rude as anything. Omer made me into a confident and competent driver in just 9 months and I passed my automatic first time today with only one minor. I can’t recommend Alfie’s enough and I can’t be thankful enough that Omer was my instructor because I wouldn’t have passed if it weren’t for him. He is honest and patient and incredibly well-versed as an instructor. Thanks everyone for all your help. Wish I could give more than five stars ⭐️!

Best Instructor

Extremely thankful for Sean. I’ve had lessons with two previous instructors (from different companies) and can honestly say Sean (Alfie’s) was the best, by a long shot. Made each lesson super comfortable, very good way of explaining things, extremely reliable, gets to the point and got me to pass my practical first time with only 3 minors. Couldn’t recommend him and Alfie’s driving school enough! Very professional and fast service. No doubt they are the best about.

would highly recommend

Had Jeff as an instructor and he was beyond brilliant. He was very patient and motivating and took as much time needed to help me to pass. He helped me to build my confidence and showed me all the tricks to help me.
In general the experience with Alfie’s was beyond reliable and trustworthy, would highly recommend.
