I learnt to drive with Atiqa Javid. She is a fantastic teacher. I went from a beginner to passing my test on the first go, and there’s no way I could have done it without her. Atiqa is a patient and calm teacher, and always encouraging. She would tailor my lessons to where I was up to, and where I needed more practice. She made sure I understood what I was doing, talking through manoeuvres before and after and giving constructive feedback. She is very perceptive, and noticing when I wasn’t as sure about something, and making sure to go through it until I wa confident. She knew how important for me to pass first time (due to upcoming life changes), and she was fantastic at building up my confidence and getting me ready for the test. I’d recommend Atiqa to anyone wanting to learn to drive. I will miss our lessons!

I learnt with Gary burgess and he was absolutely amazing he asked how I learned best about my conditions and how he can help me progress with passing we had great laughs fully recomend him I passed first time with only one minor on a tell me question not on my driving thanks to Gary’s teaching he so kind caring and compassionate if you want an easy pass just ask for Gary only automatic due to my physical disability but I’m so glad I had him as my instructor kinda sad now that won’t have anymore lessons with him but I give him 100/10

Review for Riaz Mohammed I’d like to thank Riaz for their excellent teaching and support throughout my driving lessons. Their professional, patient, and structured approach helped build my confidence and gave me a clear understanding of both the practical and safety aspects of driving. Thanks to their guidance, I was well-prepared and successful in passing my test. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable and supportive driving instructor.

More than happy with my lessons and AA instructor Abir from the South East London area. He is such a patient person and very attentive. He was able to spot my driving weaknesses which we managed to work on in a few months and I was test ready (this was my second practical as I failed my first one). I passed with Abir with only 1 minor fault. Couldn't rate Abir more highly. Thank you so much for all your words of wisdom.

Having always been a reluctant driver, and after many years without driving at all, I booked a series of refresher lessons with the AA Driving School's Andy Carrick. He has been brilliant. Friendly, calm, encouraging, and extremely patient, he has helped me to rebuild my rather rusty driving skills and given a nervous driver more confidence behind the wheel. I wholeheartedly recommend him.

I was instructed by Mr. Richard Bannister and passed my driving test on the first attempt with only two minors. He is an excellent instructor who helped me build my confidence and improve my driving skills. He was always supportive, patient, and encouraging throughout my lessons. It was a pleasure learning with him, and I would highly recommend him to anyone preparing for their driving test.

JESUTHASAN RAJKUMAR ( RAJ ) was a great instructor, I’ve had previous driving attempts with other instructors and the difference in the way I was taught is clear. I was dedicated to passing after a long break of driving and raj was able to teach me both the theory side of driving as well as practical. With this was able to pass in 2 months. If you’re thinking of booking with AA I HIGHLY recommend asking for raj, you won’t regret it. Thank you again raj for your support and motivation.

Andy Carrick helped me the whole time through my driving and I wouldn’t ask for anyone else. He was always supportive and calm which improved my time learning. In the end, I passed with 1 minor thanks to Andy’s teaching.

My driving instructor Merita took me a week before my test gave me 3 lessons and got me a pass with only 3 minors. She is the most calm and composed instructor I have ever met without extortionate rates. She taught me everything about the test and went over small key details that other instructors would only gloss over, without her I wouldn't have passed and I can only offer my highest of recommendations to her for anyone that's looking for a good fairly priced instructor.

Excellent instructors and amazing lessons, all easily booked and available! My instructor, Ahmad Zia Kohistani was an amazing instructor, teaching me how to drive very well. Every maneuver was explained in detail with tips and tricks to make sure that I know exactly how to do them. A great instructor and amazing lessons, would definitely love to have lessons with him again! Passed my driving test with no problems!

Excellent instructor — highly recommended! I’m so happy to share that I’ve just passed my driving test, and I couldn’t have done it without my instructor [Name fredua ]. He was truly outstanding — very professional, knowledgeable, and taught me so much more than just what was needed for the test. He always took the time to explain things clearly and even gave extra time during lessons whenever I needed it, never rushing me. His patience and support helped me build my confidence completely. I’m still in disbelief that I’ve passed, and I owe so much of that success to his great teaching. I would highly recommend him and the AA Driving School to anyone looking to learn to drive.

My instructor (Ziba Alamshahivaigan )was the best one who is patient & hardworking and the only reason to pass my exam in the first time. I strongly recommend everyone to choose her.

I passed my driving test at Morden Test Centre with Atiqa and would definitely recommend her! I had bad experience with a previous driving instructor, so I was quite nervous and lacked confidence when I started lessons with her. She was really patient, supportive, and understanding from day one, which helped me build my confidence back up. She explains things really well and always makes sure you understand what you’re doing and why. I never felt rushed or judged, even when I made mistakes. In the run-up to my test, she was especially encouraging and helped me stay calm and focused. One thing I really appreciated was that she shared helpful resources and materials outside of lessons, so I could keep learning and improving in my own time. Thanks to her, I passed my test at Morden. If you’re looking for a friendly, patient instructor who genuinely wants you to do well, I’d definitely recommend Atiqa.

I cannot thank my instructor, Jesuthasan Rajkumar (Raj), enough! Before starting with Raj, I took lessons with another instructor, but I wasn't making the progress I needed and felt stuck. Everything changed when I came to Raj. He patiently identified and corrected all of my bad habits and mistakes. What sets him apart is that he doesn't just prepare you to pass a test ,he teaches you how to truly understand the road. Thanks to his excellent guidance, I successfully passed my exam at the West Wickham test centre! I can now drive anywhere with absolute confidence and zero hesitation. If you want an instructor who actually helps you become a skilled, independent driver, look no further than Raj!
