“I had an amazing experience with AA. If you get the chance to book with Winston please do!! He was very patient punctual, calm and very instructive in his teaching methods. He got me to pass FIRST attempt at Erith with under 30hrs of lessons! :)) Thank you AA and a special thanks for Winston 🏆”

“It was a great experience! I learnt automatic as my theory was set to expire just after I start university and I really needed my licences asap due to travel and being the sole provider for my family. my first official lesson was in July and within a month I was doing mock tests! My test was booked for October and was during an extremely busy time of my life and my instructor helped me throughout it all, forever thankful! My instructor was amazing! She was smiley and was very patient with me!!! Even when she was not feeling her best she still came and gave me a great lesson, the day before my test she had a family emergency and still made it in time for me to do my test!!! Many other instructors should learn from her and she's dedicated and determined for her students! Her name is fathima and she works in the Crawley area!”

“Passed first time thanks to Jahir! I’d had a few driving instructors over the years but finally connected with Jahir to secure a first time pass. I loved his structured approach to teaching and enjoyed his lessons and style. The vehicle was always kept in great condition too which is always a plus”

“The AA driving school is a top school. My driving instructor was Jesuthasan Rajkumar (RAJ). He was very good in teaching me the basics initially to having defined learning objectives for every lesson and explained concepts in an easy and understandable manner. I was able to pass first time due to his lessons and guidance. Would 100% recommend him as a driving instructor.”

“Two words. Jahir Salihu. Jahir is an excellent instructor who is friendly, kind, and clear with instruction. I highly encourage anyone who is looking for an instructor to work with him. I passed my practical on my first attempt with only two minors. I owe that all to Jahir, who not only helped get my license but taught me how to be a safe driver. Thank you AA!”

“Ahmad Zia Kohistani deserves to win Driving Instructor of the year! He is amazing! I couldn’t have asked for a better instructor, Ahmad is extremely patient and determined to make you ready for the roads! He always made sure to focus on my needs and weaknesses in our lessons. I’m so grateful to have had him as my Instructor, I hope everyone is able to have the awesome experience I had with Ahmad. I want to personally thank Ahmad for not just teaching me how to drive but also having faith in me when I was losing faith in myself, you’re the best! He certainly deserves all the recognition he receives because he’s great at what he does! Thank you so much.”

“I can't thank David Meredith enough for his incredible guidance and support as my driving instructor through THEAA Driving School. His expertise and extensive driving experience were evident in every lesson. Despite my mistakes, he remained incredibly patient, taking the time to explain each error in detail to help me understand and improve. Thanks to his encouragement and thorough teaching, I’ve become much more confident behind the wheel. His attention to public safety is second to none, and he made sure I developed safe driving habits for life. David truly is a legend and an invaluable asset to THEAA Driving School. If you’re looking for the best driving instructor out there, look no further! Thank you, David!”

“I had an amazing experience learning to drive with Freddie! He was incredibly patient and made me feel at ease throughout the entire process. His calm approach and ability to explain things clearly made a big difference, even when I made mistakes - he always took the time to ensure I understood what I needed to improve. The AA made the booking process simple and straightforward, and I was even refunded for the unused hours after I passed - with just one minor!! :) Thank you Freddie for helping me to becoming a fully licensed driver!”

“Brilliant! I've always been a motorcyclist since my teen years and I'm now 50. Never driven a car my life. I used AA and Ricky J was my instructor. Great instructor, great sense of humor and made me feel confident since day one. A few months later and I passed my test first time! Thank you very much Ricky, much appreciated!!!!”

“Zahid Ali was fantastic from start to finish, always great with communication and helping me get over my initial fears of driving. Also was fantastic in giving me the confidence to drive in new conditions such as the dark and even a heavy storm once. Really grateful to have been able to pass first time especially thanks to his support over the last few months!”
