“Driving instructor (Wayne Heery) was always late anywhere from 45mins to an hour and half late every time. Lied to me saying it was AAs fault but turns out AA have nothing to do with time. Was always making me take unwanted breaks so he could go on his phone and making inappropriate comments”

“Booked a set of lessons and 3 out of 4 been cancelled by AA. It's hard enough to get an instructor these days and this isn't good enough from a supposed reputable company!”

“Martin Gunter was an amazing instructor and put me at ease from my very first lesson. I was never put in situations where I felt out of my depth or uncomfortable. His experience as a driver and driving instructor was really comforting. He took things at my pace was always very explanatory, and if I didn’t understand the first time, he would explain in different ways until I did. I passed first time confidently and would highly recommend him to anyone! I went from being a complete beginner and having never driven a car to passing in 22 hours with Martin’s help.”

“My instructor Michael Joshua was absolutely fantastic. I started in January and was passed in March. Couldn’t have done it without him got all my fears of roundabouts and slip roads under control. Anyone in Plymouth wanting to learn Automatic Michael with AA is absolutely brilliant. Thankyou Michael for all your help and support.”

“Martin Gunter is an exceptional driving instructor—patient, clear, and genuinely supportive. His lessons were engaging, thorough, and tailored exactly to my needs, building my confidence behind the wheel with every session. Thanks to Martin, I passed my driving test first time! I highly recommend him to anyone learning to drive—he’s truly the best around. It seems as though all his students pass first time too :)”

“I’ve recently had my first ever driving lesson with Samson Samuel and I couldn’t be more satisfied. He was very calm and thorough. He also made sure to make me feel at ease and boost my confidence which was very important for me cause I was very nervous. I would definitely recommend the AA Driving School and Samson Samuel as the instructor.”

“I had Mohammad Halim as my instructor, He provided great written guidance which you can cover outside of lessons and especially before my test. He is methodical making sure you have covered the full syllabus and means you’re always very ready for test. He would always encourage and motivate me when I was feeling nervous and stress. I passed this morning at Guildford’s test centre. I highly recommend him. Thank you so much for everything wish all the best”

“I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better instructor than Raj. From the very first lesson, he made me feel at ease and built up my confidence behind the wheel. Raj didn’t just teach me how to pass my test; he made sure I became a safe and confident driver. His guidance and encouragement made such a difference, and I’m so grateful to have had him as my instructor. Thank you!!!”
