“My instructor AA Driving Jesunathan Rajkumar was really clear with me and patient whilst I was learning. He also made me feel very comfortable around him and confident which made my experience more enjoyable. He teach me in and out. I really thank him, I passed first attempt because of his guidance. Regards Anand”

“I spoke to a lady from AA DRIVING SCHOOL who was putting my 17 year old child down for lessons.. she asked if my daughter has any thing she requires.. my daughter said just for her mum or uncle to sit in the back so she felt safe with a stranger.. the AA worker stated this could only happen on a couple of occasions but driving instructors don’t feel comfortable doing this so maybe no one will offer her any driving lessons. So we asked for a female instructor instead, we were told this wasn’t possible as it’s only 20% driving instructors. The lady spoke to me and my daughter in an aggravated manner because we were adamant for the safety of my child, there will always be a family member in the car. The woman made clear we most likely won’t get any driving instructors offering there service to my child. This will be taken further as that was an appalling service from someone who has to only answer a phone.”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Highly Recommend – Passed First Time! I can’t thank Imran Siddique enough for helping me pass my driving test first time! He is incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and calm — exactly the kind of instructor you want when you're feeling nervous or unsure. What stood out to me most was his teaching style: he’s firm when needed (which I really appreciated), but always supportive and encouraging. His high standards pushed me to improve with every lesson, and I always felt I was in safe hands. He was also super flexible with scheduling lessons around my availability, which made a huge difference with my busy diary. If you're looking for someone who’s genuinely invested in your success, I couldn’t recommend Imran more. Thank you again for everything!”

“My instructor Arefah was amazing!! I’ve had bad experiences with two previous private instructors however she was patient with me and helped me so much throughout my training. Without her I definitely couldn’t have passed my test. She was well organised and thorough in each lesson and we worked together to strengthen my weak areas in a short amount of time. She had so much faith in me too and without it I definitely wouldn’t have had the confidence in me to have passed!”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5 Stars – Passed First Time with Only Two Minors! - (Leegreenaa) After a tough start with a previous instructor I really struggled to connect with, I made the decision to switch – and honestly, it was the best thing I ever did. My new instructor was an absolute game-changer. From the very first lesson, he was calm, knowledgeable, super friendly, and always professional. He explained everything clearly, built up my confidence quickly, and never made me feel judged for asking questions or making mistakes. Thanks to his guidance and support, I passed my driving test first time with Lee only two minors – something I didn’t think was possible just a few months ago. If you're looking for an instructor who genuinely cares, knows what they're doing, and helps you feel at ease behind the wheel, I can't recommend him enough!”

“Blerim was the best instructor I could have asked for! From the very start he made me feel relaxed and confident behind the wheel. He always remains calm and not only teaches you how to pass the test but also how to feel confident and safe when Independently driving after you pass. He explains everything very clearly and if you’re unsure he uses visual aids to help your understanding with manoeuvres. I was delighted to have passed first time with 2 minors with his teaching. I couldn’t recommend him more.”

“I feel truly blessed to have had Mr ARSLAN AHMED CHOWDRY as my driving instructor. More than just teaching me how to drive, he gave me confidence when I doubted myself and motivated me whenever I felt nervous. His calm words and constant encouragement made all the difference. Every lesson felt like learning with a friend who genuinely wanted to see me succeed. I will always be grateful for his patience, kindness, and the positive energy he brought to each session. Thanks to him, I now drive with confidence, and I’ll never forget this journey.”

“Aa Driving School the best one . I want to give a huge thank you to JESUTHASAN RAJKUMAR ( RAJ ) for stepping in and bringing his car for my driving test today. Even though I hadn’t driven the car before, he made me feel calm, comfortable, and fully supported from start to finish. He showed up on time, was super friendly, and made sure everything was in place for the test. His help honestly made a big difference—and I PASSED! 🎉 If you’re looking for someone reliable, kind, and helpful, I 100% recommend him. Couldn’t have done it without you—thank you again!”

“Thank you Ahmad Zia Kohistani! Zia is a great instructor. He was very patient with me and taught the skills by breaking them down into components that I can understand and follow. He understood what I needed and adapted the lessons to that and to how I learn best. Zia, I am grateful for your help. Thank you very much!”

“A very poor start. For my daughter’s first lesson the instructor was 25 minutes late. It turns out he was parked down the road a bit. We tried to contact him but chat was the only way to connect so very slow. The driver did not make any attempt to connect with us to say where they were or why they were late.”

“My driving instructor was Jesuthasan Rajkumar (Raj) - I found him and the driving school from looking at the reviews online. I previously failed my driving tests two times in the past. With Raj we only done 4 weeks / 10 hours. Raj is really good at breaking down and making the hard things simple and easy to understand. Patient very good at boosting your confidence.”

“Blerim Trnava is a brilliant driving instructor! He’s super friendly, patient, and really knows how to explain things clearly. What I appreciated most is how he always pointed out the small details that make a big difference — that’s what helped me feel fully prepared for the test. Even when it was pouring rain on the day of my test, I felt calm and confident thanks to his guidance. Can’t recommend him enough — thank you, Blerim!”
