At first, I thought that The AA Driving School was a brilliant choice for me; their booking service is rapid and flexible through their mobile app and website; however, it soon proved that convenience over experience proved to be a heartbreaking factor. In my first lesson, I felt proud to be a Student with AADS, my instructor was welcoming, and we went through the basics of a car and how to drive. Although I was nervous and overcame those fears in the first lesson, I enjoyed my first lesson and continued to work with the AADS. Unfortunately, my experience plunged, and I wasn't enjoying my lessons after getting on the main roads. There was always a conflict between myself and my instructor (who I won't name out of respect). I didn't feel confident in my ability to drive because he kept throwing me off about how I was doing something wrong; now, friends and family who've already passed their test told me that an instructor isn't there to exclaim that I was wrong. Instead, they are there to help and improve your skills; however, this wasn't the case. Sometimes he also jeopardised taking me back to the industrial estate, which seemed like he cared about the car rather than our safety after clamouring that I would "sabotage the car" after making a simple mistake. The AADS has truly broken my heart and ultimately yielded my ability to have confidence driving on the roads, I won't be choosing this company to learn with again, and I certainly won't be recommending the AADS to friends, family and colleagues. When I decided it would be best to learn with a different company, I told my instructor I wasn't interested in learning for the time being and in cancelling my driving test lesson booking. He followed my instructions; however, my account was also closed, so I couldn't request a refund for the 2 hours that the company stole from me. Worst experience ever! Don't choose the AADS if you want to have confidence on the road.
