“Passed first time thanks to Ceri Anne Delfino! She was an absolutely amazing instructor who really helped to put my mind at ease while driving and gave me the confidence I needed to pass. Really can't recommend her enough!!”

“I'd like to express my appreciation to my driving instructor Elias Sidali, who is highly professional, patient, with excellent teaching skills. I had driving experience in another country and my course was less than two weeks. Elias was very supportive, taught me a lot about driving in UK and built my confidence. Passed my test first time with 1 minor in Morden. Strongly recommend.”

““My driving instructor, Rajkumar Jesuthan demonstrated exceptional patience, a calm demeanor, and a consistently positive attitude. Thanks to his guidance, I passed my test at the Mitcham test centre on the second attempt. If you're in the area, I highly recommend choosing him. Already recommended him to someone.”

“Michael L was amazing! He started our lesson off by explaining everything there was to know about the car, even though I had had lessons with another instructor before. I thought I knew everything but I was very wrong! When we were driving he was very helpful in taking me to difficult to drive places which definitely prepared me for my exam better. He is very very good at explaining things and in greater detail than others might go into to make sure you understand. And he will always ask if he has explained it well or if you’d like for him to explain it in another way. One of the best things I learnt from him was to be very vigilant and careful when driving and assess risk situations before they arise. Sometimes it’s better to hold back and sometimes to just get out in front of it and pass it before the risk develops. Besides all that he is a lot of fun to drive with and have great conversations in the car. I definitely recommend him!!!”

“Hats off to Basir -Uxbridge/Slough instructor for being the best 👌 and taking me through my lessons from scratch. Passed my test-1st attempt on July 1 with 3 minors and I owe it to him. He was professional, patient and took time to calmly explain every step and to ensure that you become.a safe driver! Would definitely recommend him anytime. Thanks Basir”

“I had the pleasure of learning to drive with Suman, and I cannot recommend him highly enough! From the very first lesson, his professionalism, patience, and expertise were evident. One of the things I appreciated most was Suman’s patience and calm demeanor. He never made me feel rushed or pressured, and he was always willing to go over any areas where I needed extra practice. His constructive feedback was always delivered in a positive and encouraging manner, which made learning to drive a genuinely enjoyable experience with him. Suman provided tips and practice sessions tailored to what examiners look for. Thanks to his thorough preparation, I felt confident and well-prepared on the day of my test, which I passed with flying colors. I highly recommend Suman to anyone looking to learn how to drive!”

“I’ve not driven for over 10years and I couldn’t be more confident now having had refresher lessons with Raj @ AA. We’ve covered so much during just 6hrs of lessons, focussing on areas I needed more confidence with such as roundabouts and motorway driving. I would really recommend Raj as an instructor as he was calm and explained everything well and pushed me when I needed it.”

“Rizwan Ahmed has been timely with my driving lessons in automatic in less than two months after taking weekly lessons before gambling to taking my driving test, just weeks before I leave Cardiff. His teaching style has been comprehensive, documenting all the areas covered in the lesson, highlighting any strengths and weaknesses. It was a pleasure having him as well, let alone his excellent track record for ensuring they pass under this instructor.”

“The instructor Mr. Andrew Thorley in Eastbourne is the best you can ever get. He always made me feel comfortable. He is thoroughly professional and a very honest man. You can tell that he loves his job by the way he deals with everyone. I passed my test with just a few lessons with him. Big shout out and thanks to Andrew for everything he did for me.”
