“I had the privilege of experiencing an exceptional journey with AA Driving School, and I would like to express my profound appreciation, particularly for my driving instructor, Mr. Ayaaz Khan. My sincere gratitude for your outstanding instruction throughout my journey to obtaining my restricted license. Your expertise, patience, and dedication to teaching made all the difference in my learning experience. Your ability to explain complex concepts in a clear and understandable manner made me feel confident behind the wheel. You created a comfortable and supportive environment that allowed me to ask questions and learn at my own pace. Your attention to detail, emphasis on safety, and focus on good driving habits have left a lasting impression on me. Thanks to your guidance sir, I not only passed my driving test but also feel well-prepared and responsible as a new driver. Your passion for teaching and commitment to your students' success truly set you apart as an exceptional driving instructor. Once again, thank you, Mr. Ayaaz Khan, for being an awesome instructor and helping me achieve this milestone in my life. I would highly recommend your services to anyone seeking quality driving instruction.”

“AA and the instructor Jesudasan Raj was really helpful in helping me pass in the first instance. Raj is extremely talented and patient while teaching and will help you correct all mistakes systematically. Without him it would have been difficult for me to pass”

“Mr Sohail Ayub is a really great instructor. I was a bit nervous when I have my first driving lesson, he was really patient and explained things very clearly. When I have questions, he didn’t mind to explain them slowly for more times. I gained confidence as a new driver and I found driving interesting and fun rather than scary. I look forward to the next driving lesson thanks to Mr Sohail Ayub. Highly recommend him as a driving instructor! Thanks a lot!”

“I am a licence holder and I did my driving lesson with AA around Norwood previously. I had the best instructor then. Now after passing my driving lesson. I needed to check my confidence and skills with drive plus lessons. AA then provide with JESUTHASAN RAJKUMAR around Croydon area. He particularly helped me build up my confidence and skills in motor way by waiting for my action steps and explaining before hand what's expected. He capitalises with poise enforcement when I do things right. He doesn't get stuck all day commenting on wrong skills. He rather correct me in such a calming and confidence building approach. I like that his pace and I am driving around the city and motor ways in such a careful and confident manner. Thank you.”

“I would like to take the time to highlight the professionalism, expertise and patience of my instructor, Bashir Omar. I had not practised driving in a while and I booked intense lessons ahead of my test today. He insured that I corrected every bad habit/ fault and ensured that I was ready ahead of my test. I am so grateful for his hard work and contribution.”

“Ahmad Zia Kohistani is one of the best trainers that I dealt with, as his best feature is taking care of the student until he passes the exam. The others I dealt with were not interested in the student whether he learned or not, their biggest concern was money. I only developed and improved my skills with Ahmad Zia Kohistani. Even if I rate it 5 out of 5, it will remain a little in his right. Thank you mr Ahmad Zia Kohistani.”

“I'm so excited to share that I passed my driving test on my first attempt with zero minors. I couldn't have done it without the help of my amazing driving instructor, Siraj Akbar. He's a brilliant teacher who pushes you to be your best. He taught me everything I needed to know to pass the test, and I'm so grateful for his guidance. I'm so happy to finally be a licensed driver. This is a huge milestone for me, and I can't wait to start exploring the world behind the wheel. Thanks again, Siraj! Here are some of the things I learned from Siraj: How to control the car in different weather conditions How to parallel park like a pro How to deal with unexpected situations on the road How to stay calm and focused while driving I'm so glad that I had Siraj as my driving instructor. He's an excellent teacher, and I'm confident that I'll be a safe and responsible driver thanks to his instruction. If you're looking for a driving instructor, I highly recommend Siraj Akbar. He's the best in the business!”
