Shafiul Haque was an amazing instructor. I passed first time thanks to him. He was very patient and easy to get along with whilst explaining everything in a way i would understand. I defo recommend Shafi if you want to pass your test and be completely ready for the roads beyond your exam.

Thank you Edris Ahmed Jon for teaching me and making me the best driver possible. Edris has helped me in every lesson to make me better, I passed with two minors all thanks to Edris. I highly recommend him if you want your license as soon as possible once again thank you Edris.

I had a great experience learning with Ziba. She was an excellent instructor who helped me become much more confident with my driving. Her instructions were always clear, calm and easy to follow, and she explained manoeuvres in a way that made them much easier to understand and put into practice. She was patient, supportive and really good at breaking things down step by step. I’d highly recommend Ziba to anyone looking for a driving instructor.

Had 6 lessons 3 of which were cancelled, one 30 minutes after it was supposed to start, and for the remaining 3 the instructor was significantly late. Spent the 3 lessons that actually took place doing circuits round a housing estate in 1st gear.

What a waste of money, the driver asking personal details and aggressive when talking

I passed my driving test yesterday at Mitcham and I honestly couldn’t have done it without Freddie ASARE. He is very patient, supportive and incredibly professional. He explained everything clearly, helped build my confidence and always stayed calm and encouraging even when I made mistakes. Freddie tailored each of my lessons to what I needed to improve on and genuinely cared about helping me become a safe and confident driver. I would highly recommend Freddie to any learners out there.

I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better driving instructor. I passed first time with Martin Gunter, and I truly believe that was down to his teaching style and how committed he was from the very first lesson. After trying a few different instructors before finding him, the difference was huge. He was reliable, patient, genuine, and always went above and beyond for his students. He shared loads of helpful resources that made everything feel far less intimidating and confusing, and he had a real talent for breaking things down in a way that actually made sense without overcomplicating anything. He was always calm and patient, even when I was being clumsy or making mistakes. He created such a relaxed atmosphere during lessons. Great conversations, positivity, and even some excellent TV show recommendations along the way! What stood out most was how encouraging and kind he was. He made me feel comfortable learning and helped build my confidence massively. Never in a million years did I think I’d pass first time, but his support and teaching made all the difference. I’d recommend him to absolutely anyone learning to drive.

I recently passed my driving test at Mitcham Driving Test Centre on 09/05/2026, and I couldn’t have done it without the excellent guidance of JESUTHASAN RAJKUMAR (RAJ) from AA Driving School. Raj is an incredibly patient, professional, and knowledgeable driving instructor. From the very beginning, he helped build my confidence and made every lesson calm, clear, and enjoyable. His teaching style is easy to understand, and he always focused on improving my driving skills safely and correctly. What stood out most was his attention to detail and the way he prepared me thoroughly for the driving test routes and real driving situations. He gave constructive feedback after every lesson, which helped me improve quickly and feel fully prepared on test day. Thanks to Raj’s support, encouragement, and expert instruction, I passed my driving test successfully. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and supportive driving instructor.

My driving instructor was Martin Gunter and I cannot recommend him highly enough! I was a super nervous & unconfident learner. Martin was really brilliant in supporting me , staying calm and encouraging me all the way from my first lesson to passing my test first time with only 4 faults! If you are looking for the best driving instructor, learn with Martin! I am so happy that I can now confidently drive around the streets of London and beyond. Thank you Martin, you are a star! 😊

I paid £800 up front. I was 18 so this was a lot of money. I had 4 lessons, but the teacher wouldn’t allow me to be behind the wheel because I ‘wasn’t ready’. I mentioned this to friends and they told me this was not normal. The teacher made me feel on edge and unsafe. He said that he was an ex police man and told me weird stories like if I press the button on a road crossing that the police were tracking my finger prints and would know my whereabouts. So weird. I reported this to AA, who told me it’s nothing to do with them. They don’t provide lessons, they only facilitate the lessons and take a cut. Therefore I couldn’t get my money back, or change to another teacher. Awful experience. Taking advantage of young people and taking Zero responsibility for their welfare. They wouldn’t give me a refund.

I passed my driving test in Edinburgh today. My driving instructor is Mohammed Riaz, he is incredibly supportive with great skills. I have been learning with my driving instructor for almost a year now. He helped me feel relaxed and confident behind the wheel from the very first lesson. Riaz is extremely professional, patient and knowledgeable, which has made a huge difference in building my confidence on the road. He always explains things clearly and simply, making sure I fully understand each skill before moving on. His calm and supportive approach helped me to stay relaxed even in challenging situations. Thanks to his guidance and well-structured instruction, my driving has improved significantly over time. I would highly recommend Riaz to anyone looking for a trusted instructor to help them succeed in their learning to drive journey.

The AA Driving School made me happy by giving me the confidence and skills I needed to pass my practical test. My instructor, Ahmad Zia Kohistani, was patient, supportive, and explained everything clearly. He always made me feel calm and comfortable during lessons, which really helped me improve my driving. His teaching style was professional and encouraging, and he helped me build confidence on the road. I’m very grateful for all his help and would highly recommend him and The AA Driving School to anyone learning to drive.

Sons first lesson booked with Steven Roberts. He pulled up in an area not visible to my home. Waited 15 minutes, and left. Didn't call or message that he had arrived. Unprofessional and cruel

Had about 9 lessons with James Lewitt, and he’s an absolute STAR!!! So patient, so polite and VERY VERY knowledgeable. I had one instructor before with who I failed 2 tests, had less lessons with James and smashed my test with only 3 minors!!! Would 100000% recommend the man, a 10/10 instructor.
