“I began to drive with Instructor Sudhir Desai... he is a gem of a person. Very hard to find such a good driving teacher... I had done 3-4 lessons with other instructors(not from AA), they just casually gave up on me. But Sudhir Sir put in all his efforts and taught driving like his own daughter... THANK YOU VERY MUCH SIR I managed to pass my driving test because of him”

“I had an amazing experience with Freddie Asare in South London. I passed first time with one minor and Freddie has been so helpful throughout my driving journey. He's patient and informative as well as very good at explaining concepts. He teaches how to drive to a very high standard- far above and beyond what the DVSA require. He focuses on teaching driving as a skill for life not just for the test. Freddie was great at adapting the lessons to address all of my weaker points and was very detailed in making sure that I drove faultlessly, which is reflected in the results of his drivers. I would definitely recommend!”

“Freddie Asare was an absolutely amazing instructor, and I’d 100% recommend him to anyone learning to drive!. When I first started learning to drive, I had zero confidence and was super anxious on the roads but Freddie was so calm, patient and encouraging. He really helped me build up my confidence and made learning to drive feel so much less scary. Thanks to him, I didn’t just pass my test but I passed with 0 minors, which still feels unreal to me!. I genuinely don’t think I could’ve done it without him.”

“Happy to have passed my driving test with the help of Andy Carrick, who was my old primary school teacher. I already knew he was a nice guy but he’s also a great driving instructor. Just the right amount of strict but fair (when needed).”

“Martin Gunter was an amazing instructor and put me at ease from my very first lesson. I was never put in situations where I felt out of my depth or uncomfortable. His experience as a driver and driving instructor was really comforting. He took things at my pace was always very explanatory, and if I didn’t understand the first time, he would explain in different ways until I did. I passed first time confidently and would highly recommend him to anyone! I went from being a complete beginner and having never driven a car to passing in 22 hours with Martin’s help.”

“My instructor Michael Joshua was absolutely fantastic. I started in January and was passed in March. Couldn’t have done it without him got all my fears of roundabouts and slip roads under control. Anyone in Plymouth wanting to learn Automatic Michael with AA is absolutely brilliant. Thankyou Michael for all your help and support.”
