“AA driving school is easy to use and puts you in touch with local instructors. I have had 3 instructors and Junaid is by far the best one. I passed in Speke in Liverpool first time thanks to Junaid. He is an amazing, kind and patient instructor. He is always on time/ early and is very reliable. I really recommend him if you are in the Liverpool area.”

“Martin Gunter was definitely the best driving instructor I’ve had. He was always calm and patient, and his teaching style was very professional and effective. He quickly identified my weaknesses and worked through them with me step by step, which really boosted my confidence. I couldn’t have asked for a better instructor thank you so much, Martin!”

“I was so made up after passing my driving test first try, thanks to my driving instructor Jason Moorcroft. He was absolutely amazing throughout my journey to get on the roads. Supportive from day 1, He helped me with my confidence massively, if I could recommend anyone it would be Jason.”

“AA Driving School made me happy! I passed my driving test in Mitcham today. My driving instructor is Jesuthasan Rajkumar (RAJ). From our first lesson he has always made me feel comfortable and save whilst driving. I started off very nervous, but only with his confidence boosts have I been able to pass today. His teaching method is very clear, and never gets annoyed regardless of how many questions I ask. Thank you so much Raj Uncle!”

“I passed my test first time after having just 10 lessons with my instructor Atiqa. She’s very good I must say, she’s patient, listens and calm. I highly recommend her for your driving success story anytime and any day.”

“I’d like to say a huge thank you to my AA instructor Param Karthik who helped me pass my driving test. Param is very experienced, his teaching was well-structured, incredibly practical and supportive. I’m very grateful for how he reassured me when I had done right and topped me up for excellence during the lessons which is crucial for me to build up confidence needed for driving. He provided mock tests, and also covered every tiny steps that may possibly happen in an exam very well so nothing would come as a surprise in the actual one. Glad to have him, highly recommended!”

“AA Driving School itself made it very easy to find instructors in my area, book lessons, and refund on unused hours. My instructor Atiqa was great, I didn’t realise the difference a good driving instructor makes until I switched to Atiqa, suddenly I was driving so much better thanks to her. She explains things very clearly, making things that seemed scary or complicated before seem simple. She is very friendly and works hard for her students, and does not get angry if you make a mistake. I definitely recommend Atiqa as an instructor, she helped me pass first time with 1 minor!”

“Leah Wright is an amazing driving instructor in the Wigston/Leicester area. Calm, incredibly patient, and so easy to talk to. Her advice throughout was invaluable, and I genuinely couldn’t have done it without her. If she can get me through a driving test, she can get anyone through, I passed my test with 2 minors. Highly recommend!”

“I am very happy with my driver instructor, Freddie Asare who I got from the AA Driving School. Though the platform wasn’t the best to navigate as a user, once my lessons were underway I was in a calm and patient environment which allowed me to excel whether I made a mistake or not. I have had the opposite experience with another combative instructor so that made Freddie all the more appreciated. I highly recommend Freddie as I couldn’t have passed my test without his guidance, trust and encouragement thought out my journey.”

“I am feeling very happy for choosing AA driving school, specially Farideh Sarvari is an outstanding driving instructor. She is incredibly patient, calm, and professional, which made every lesson comfortable and stress-free. Farideh explains everything clearly, builds confidence step by step, and truly cares about her students’ success and safety on the road. Thanks to her guidance and encouragement, I felt fully prepared and confident behind the wheel. I highly recommend Farideh to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, supportive, and reliable driving instructor.”

“During my time as a learner driver, my driving instructor Andrew Carrick (Andy) from the AA driving school demonstrated everything you could possibly want in an instructor. Not only is he superb technically, very patient and supportive, but he also is a great person in general and very easy to talk to about pretty much anything. He gave me the confidence to pass my test first time and now go on to become a very safe and comfortable driver on the road. I would recommend him to anyone looking for an instructor.”

“I couldn’t have asked for a better driving instructor, Jesuthasan Rajkumar (Raj). Raj is kind, patient, and incredibly encouraging, and a genuinely great teacher. My journey to getting a licence has been a real struggle since Covid, but he supported me every step of the way and never gave up on me. I truly wouldn’t have done it without his help. I’m so grateful and would highly recommend him to anyone looking to learn to drive.”

“My experience with the AA driving school was 1st class thanks to my excellent driving instructor Mr Stephan Rixon who covers the Colchester/Clacton area. I passed on my first attempt thanks to Stephan's incredible style of teaching, Stephan was professional & reliable, development focused, kind, calm and supportive throughout and a great communicator which is everything you could ask from a good instructor. Thanks to Stephan's excellent tuition I am now a fully licenced driver and am very grateful and very happy I chose the AA driving school and Stephan Rixon as my driving instructor. A great learning experience from day one to passing my test, I would highly recommend the AA driving school and furthermore Mr Stephan Rixon as a driving instructor. Many thanks Stephan.”
