There is more than one way to pass your driving test and more and more people are opting to take automatic driving lessons in East London. The thing is learning to drive in an automatic is so easy, and you wonder why anyone actually bothers with a manual car. You don't have to drive, concentrate on the road, press in the clutch, change gear, and depress the clutch, while you are making sure you are driving safely.
If you are a beginner and would like to start from the basic driving skills, then our Beginner Driving Course will be perfect for you. Our Beginner Driving course is designed for new learners with only a small amount of driving experience, including those who started learning to drive but haven't been behind the wheel in some time.

Would highly recommend Anam as an instructor driver, because Iâve passed my test from first attempt after 2 months of lessons during the weekend (I donât have previous experience of driving at all). Even the examiner was surprised with my level of driving at a quite short period of time. And here is why:
1. Anam has a proper structure of teaching, so you just donât randomly driving circles across the area with low efficacy and time/money spent
2. You feel yourself comfortable and relaxed from your first day and this positively impacts your learning
3. He is responsible and committed to

Rosey Zaman is the best instructor ever!
I have passed first time in my manual practical test because of her!
She was the perfect balance between kind, patient, friendly vs critical, real and honest. She was real with me if I made a mistake, ensuring I understood exactly what I did wrong and enabling me practice it till I got it right. Made me feel comfortable during the lessons so I did not get nervous or scared during the time I drove. I appreciated the consistent feedback, of both the good and the what I can do better. It was always detailed and I would always know what to focus on for my

I passed my driving test today 09/09/2021 at Hornchurch 08.20am. My driving instructor was MR ALI. He was very professional from the booking date till date. He was very patient and communicated with me easily. He went out of his way to pick me up at 6.20am for my test so I could have few driving lessons before the test. I will definitely recommend DOCKLANDS DRIVING SCHOOL LTD to anyone, and the prices was very affordable and good value for money.

I took my lessons with Anam Ahmed and he was the best instructor. Honestly, I cannot recommend enough. My first lesson ever was with him and I passed first time. He is patient, supportive, punctual and he is a great person to be around. Also he gives lessons on his Land Rover which is a really great car to learn in. Biggest THANK YOU!!! I was so lucky to have him as my instructor and I will always recommend him!

Happy with the lessons and the result. Ali was my driving instructed and he is professional, friendly and responsible. I had previous experience driving, so we could correct some bad habits I had and work them out for the Driving test. His support was really good previous, during and after the test.

Had a few refresher lessons with Ali and it was a real pleasure. Very enjoyable, informative and relaxed experience. Good solid coaching and he dispelled a lot of myths and bad learnings I had received from previous instructors. I wish I had done all my learning with Ali and I heartily recommend him and have no doubt any learner will have a positive experience.
