“I'd been driving family and had failed my test a few times. I had 12 hours with Cristian Panaete. He immediately identified what I needed to work on and helped me to improve my driving skills. I'm very happy to say I passed yesterday! He is very helpful, patient and down to earth. Great instructor! Thank you so much.”

“AA Driving School has been amazing. Although the lessons can be expensive, it is definitely worth it. My driving instructor Raj had the best teaching technique, encouraging me and making me feel more confident in my driving. Thanks to him, I passed my test first time round.”

“Money driven, thats all Mr AA instructor cared about. Don't say "you're not ready for the test" without putting in the effort to make me ready for the test. I took additional lessons with a local, independent instructor and passed, because they put the effort in. The best part was mr AA turned up to a lesson after my test (which i cancelled but he still turned up), i told him i had passed, his bitter face and reponse of amumbled "okay" before driving off was the icing and cherry on the cake.”

“Mitchel Ford in Tamworth is the worst. We finished 15 min early all the time, no patience of compassion. Stopping the car all the time so he can say same things all over again On my first lesson with my new driving instructor I practised more than I did with him in 10 hours.”

“The AA driving school was the best driving school with my instructor Raj. He is a very patient and calm person. He gives clear instructions and teaches You well. I learnt something new with every lesson. He also took the preparation for the test seriously and made sure I was 100% ready and I passed first time. Raj is a very good instructor and I would recommend him highly.”

“I had refresher lessons with Faisal after not driving for years ahead of my baby being born. He was a big help in restoring my driving confidence in a short period of time. Each lesson was tailored to my needs and gave me actionable tips that I will use going forward when I drive solo.”

“I had Faisal as a driving instructor. Brilliant! He was very attentive, supportive, and accommodating. I had my first lesson 2 weeks before my exam, and Faisal was able to work his schedule around to accommodate enough lessons for me.”

“I had the pleasure of being instructed by Jesuthasan Rajkumar from the AA Driving School, and I couldn't be more grateful for the experience. Raj, as he prefers to be called, is an exceptional driving instructor who truly goes above and beyond for his students. From the very beginning, Raj impressed me with his clear and concise explanations of various driving concepts. He has a unique ability to break down complex ideas into simple, easy-to-understand terms, making the learning process much smoother. His patience knows no bounds, and he ensures that you fully comprehend every aspect of driving before moving on to the next topic. I had the opportunity to take top-up lessons as an experienced driver who had already passed my test, and Raj's guidance was invaluable. His expertise and attention to detail were evident, and under his tutelage, I felt more confident and capable behind the wheel. What sets Raj apart is not just his knowledge and teaching skills, but also his genuine dedication to his students' success. Thanks to his guidance, I was able to enhance my driving skills and pass my test with ease. His positive attitude and unwavering support made the entire learning process enjoyable and stress-free. Furthermore, I recommended Raj to my wife for her driving lessons, and he proved to be just as effective in teaching her. His ability to adapt his teaching style to cater to different learners is truly commendable. In summary, I wholeheartedly recommend Raj (Jesuthasan Rajkumar) from the AA Driving School to anyone seeking a top-notch driving instructor. His professionalism, patience, and expertise make him an outstanding choice, whether you're a new learner or an experienced driver looking to refine your skills. Choosing Raj as your driving instructor is a decision you won't regret. Thank you, Raj, for your exceptional guidance and for helping me and my wife become confident and skilled drivers.”

“I had the best chance to be instructed by Mr. Martins Ogbeide at the AA. He was very precise, well organised, helpful and fully supportive. The driving lessons with Martins were very informative, interesting and part of fun as well. He covered everything related to the DVSA guidelines and he kept a special eye on my driving attitude to confirm being both safe and legal on the road. Today, I passed my practical driving test with full confidence for the first time. I'm eternally grateful to you Martins for making this happened easily. I would definitely recommend taking driving lessons with this gentleman. Thank you.”

“Had 2 instructors that would cancel with impunity, any time window before a lesson they liked. Both would make full use of the 48 hour student cancellation window that the AA provides however, your time is worthless and theirs is worth 100% of the overpriced £35/h they charge. Their customer service is absolutely shocking, prices are extortionate and availability is non-existent. Maybe it's just that the profession of 'driving instructor' only attracts braindead washouts with only one skill? F!ck the AA”
