“I recently passed my driving test with Faridah, and I honestly couldn’t recommend her enough. From my very first lesson right up until the day of my test, Faridah was incredibly patient, kind, and professional. No matter how many times I made the same mistakes, she never made me feel discouraged instead, she created such a calm and supportive learning environment that really helped build my confidence behind the wheel. Faridah has an amazing way of teaching. She explains things clearly and thoroughly, especially when it comes to more challenging manoeuvres and tricky road situations. Every lesson felt purposeful and tailored to what I personally needed to work on, which meant I always felt prepared and supported. What really stood out to me was how much she genuinely cares about her learners. Her dedication and encouragement made such a big difference to my driving journey, and I’m so grateful for everything she’s done for me. Thank you so much Faridah, I couldn’t have done it without you.🤍🤍🤍”

“Martin was the best driving instructor I could have asked for. After many years of fear and complex needs with my driving, I’d tried other instructors but Martin made me feel safe, explained everything clearly and honestly made driving lessons fun instead of stressful. I passed first time after years of being too scared to even take a lesson!”

“Jason is truly the best instructor I could have asked for. I made so many repeated mistakes and often forgot things, yet he always taught me with patience, kindness, and a calm, positive attitude. After bad experiences with instructors who cared more about money than teaching, Jason was a refreshing change. He genuinely wants his students to feel confident, safe, and ready for the road — and thanks to him, I finally do. If you want to become a confident driver and pass your test, Jason is the person to contact. Thank you, Jason, for everything! YOU ARE THE BEST!!”

“I passed my driving test at the Tolworth Driving Test Centre, and I’m incredibly grateful to my AA Driving School instructor, Jesuthasan Rajkumar (Raj). One of the things I appreciated most was how quickly he identified the areas I needed to improve, whether it was observation at junctions, mirror checks, steering control, or positioning. He notices even the small details and makes sure you understand how to correct them without feeling pressured. I highly recommend Mr. Raj and the AA Driving School to anyone preparing for their driving test.”

By my test date, I felt quite confident and comfortable in the car and passed with no minors. I highly recommend her instructing services and wish her all the best for the future.”

“Karyn is a great driving instructor. She was patient, clear in her explanations, and always helped me understand my mistakes without making me feel stressed. She focused on the areas I needed to improve and her calm attitude really helped with my confidence. She was also very flexible when I needed lessons on short notice, always arrived on time, and made sure I had my full two hours every session. Her supportive but honest feedback made a huge difference, especially on the day of my test, having someone like her next to me kept me calm and focused. I’m really grateful for everything and can only recommend her.”

“I recently completed my driving lessons with AA. The booking system of AA is very simple and clear and I like that. I enjoyed the whole learning journey with AA and especially with my amazing instructor Farideh, she’s been professional and patient and caring from the first day of my driving lesson; she helps build up my confidence in driving and she definitely make sure her students be good driver on the road in the future. The way she explains all the driving skills/techniques is easy to understand and information are always very clear. I appreciate her professionalism and encouragement throughout my lessons!”

“I recently had the pleasure of taking my driving lessons at AA Driving School, and I can't say enough about the exceptional experience I had. My driving instructor, Andrew Carrick was nothing short of amazing. He made me feel comfortable behind the wheel from the very first lesson and was incredibly patient and understanding. Andrew tailored each lesson to my individual needs, helping me build confidence and skill at my own pace. I always felt that he genuinely cared about my progress, offering constructive feedback and guidance that made a big impact. The lessons were always well-structured, and the clear, positive communication made learning easy and enjoyable. What really stood out to me was how Andrew made sure I felt prepared for every aspect of the test—not just the driving skills, but also the mindset needed to stay calm and focused. I highly recommend Andrew Carrick to anyone looking to learn to drive. The professionalism, expertise, and encouragement I received made all the difference in my success, and I’m beyond grateful. Thank you so much for everything!”

“I had Martin as my instructor and he is such a great instructor and very easy to talk to. I had a total of 8 lessons with him before my test date and I passed 1st time. He explains absolutely everything with you and gives you the easiest and most effective tips to help you pass. I couldn’t fault him in any way shape of form so if your lucky to get him as your instructor then you are in safe hands.”

“I booked refresher lessons through the AA driving school, having not driven for some time. My instructor Jesuthasan Rajkumar (Raj) did a great job of boosting my confidence and gave lots of helpful advice to make me a better driver. We covered a lot over just two lessons including motorways, parking and town driving. I would highly recommend a refresher course with Raj for anyone who wants to improve their driving.”
