Atiqa is a wonderful driving instructor. Finding the right instructor hasn’t been easy for me, but with Atiqa, learned more in that one session than I had in ten with others. She puts her whole heart into teaching, genuinely cares about her students, and pays close attention to my progress, strengths, and areas that need improvement. Her lessons are always clear, well-structured, and I’ve never once felt my time was wasted. I’m so grateful to have found her, and I couldn’t recommend her more highly.

I cleared my test today and very happy that I chose AA driving school for learning and practice. My instructor V Rajkumar is a very patient and experienced instructor. He was super helpful and guided me very well.

I couldn’t have asked for a better driving instructor than Andrew Carrick. From the very first lesson, Andrew made me feel at ease with his calm, patient, and encouraging teaching style. He has a fantastic way of explaining things clearly and breaking down even the trickiest manoeuvres into simple steps, which really boosted my confidence on the road. Not only is Andrew an excellent teacher, but he’s also a genuinely good person – friendly, supportive, and always willing to go the extra mile to help you succeed. He creates a relaxed learning environment where you feel safe to make mistakes and learn from them, and his positive attitude makes every lesson enjoyable. Thanks to Andrew’s guidance and reassurance, I felt fully prepared for my test and passed with confidence. I’d highly recommend him to anyone looking for a skilled, patient, and trustworthy driving instructor.

I feel like the AA driving school helped me massively to become a confident driver. My instructor remained calm during our lessons which made me feel comfortable. This meant that I could work to the best of my ability and ensured that I got the most out of each lesson.

BRIGHTON INSTRUCTOR: TONY (ANTHONY NEWINGTON) IS THE BEST! ⭐ Tony got me test ready in 6 lessons (12 hours). I have never driven before, let alone sat in the driver’s seat of a car. Tony is the best instructor (even teacher) at teaching people how to drive! His methods of explaining how to parallel park, how to forward bay park, reverse bay park, how to leave roundabouts correctly, which lane to use at roundabouts, is absolutely fantastic! He makes the whole idea of driving seem simple and not scary as I thought it would be. His methods like explaining the 12 o clock method for roundabouts, the pizza slice method for parallel parking, the 45 degree angle for reverse parking in a bay between two cars are honestly IMPOSSIBLE to not understand. His methods of teaching are so simple and easy to get in your head that even a 10 year old could learn how to drive with him. Honestly! For driving tests, he is amazing at building confidence and making you have little to no nerves whatsoever, he always told me to “on the test, drive how you would on a lesson, and look at it as a friend telling you where to go.” That advice alone helped calm my nerves down and pass with only 2 minors! Tony is also a very kind, caring and wholesome guy with a great sense of humour! I wish he was my teacher for maths and all the other subjects I failed at school haha. Overall, every single lesson you have with him, you just get better. The more time you spend with him, the better driver you’ll be. He also makes every mistake easy to fix and easy to avoid. He gives you a clear cut through plan on how to not make that mistake happen again, and he is not strict like secondary school teachers, he is very kind on the mistakes you made, and how to do better next time. He is also very chatty and you can speak for hours with him while driving, honestly he is just the best driving instructor and teacher I ever had. Really wished I had him for my maths in school ha. He broke down the whole big scary concept of ‘driving’ as I once thought it was, into easy to follow and understand baby steps. Highly recommend, Tony is the kindest and the best!

Martin is an amazing instructor who has been brilliant with helping me learn to drive! I was so nervous and have been putting it off for years, but he made me feel so at ease from the start and never made me feel rushed or pressured. Such a great instructor who is very patient and understanding. Thank you so much for helping me to pass my test! 🎉

Great. I had Junaid and he was so helpful and calming. I enjoyed his classes and he would explain everything in a calm nice manner. He made me feel comfortable and was patient and would make everything easier to understand. Couldn’t recommend enough :)

I had four intense driving lessons with Ahmad Zia Kohistani before my test. He makes sure you master each technique properly. His firm teaching style means you’ll repeat any mistake until you get it right – no shortcuts. He pushed me to give my best every time, and that made all the difference and I have passed my test! With AA I think your experience is dependant on the drive you get.

I had roughly 26 hours of lessons with Ricco Santiago in York. He took from pretty much a complete beginner to passing my test! We always filled the entire lesson with driving, he was flexible and accommodating. I would highly, highly recommend to anyone!

Useless company. My daughter booked 6hrs of Lessons in may. Was ready for her first lesson with a Paul Waterhouse, he never showed up. You cant speak to anyone at the AA. Daughter is supposed to have her second lesson tomorrow. Who knows if he will show up. Disgusting service, shame on you AA.

Would absolutely recommend michael slavtchev as a driving instructor!! Very patient, reassuring and calming as a tutor. Took my test at hendon and passed 1st time with only 1 minor (my fault for clipping a curb). Great value for money aswell especially if you book in bulk!

I had an amazing experience learning to drive with my instructor, Michael Slavtchev. He was very patient and incredibly supportive throughout the whole process. His calm and clear instructions really helped me build my confidence on the road. Every lesson was well-structured, and he made sure I understood everything at my own pace. I passed my test first time thanks to his guidance! I highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable and encouraging driving instructor.
