“Just doing this review as a parent. So I bought my lad an initial pack of 6 lessons with Jalal Kazi. After 4 lessons he had not progressed to using second gear which took another 2 hours of coaching. My son found Jalal to be very professional and always on time which was great. I know the roads are busier than back in the 90s when I learned but this seems excessively cautious approach especially as the cars have dual controls. At this point I decided not to buy any further lessons and took over the instruction myself. We did practice of driving in all traffic conditions including central Birmingham and all the examinable manoeuvres covering about 700 miles in total. 6 weeks later he passed his test with 4 minors. We have addressed these issues and I’m now going to take him for motorway experience. I’m not a qualified instructor but a driver with 30 years and access to a wealth of support on the internet. For me this saved a lot of money and was a good time to bond with my child. Hope this review is helpful to others. If you do decide to undertake the training yourself, remember, MIRRO, SIGNAL, MANOEUVRE, is still as important as ever. Good luck.”

“Faisal Anwar was my instructor. He is an incredible instructor, so professional, so kind, so patient and teaches you everything you need to learn for driving and how to take the test in a very short period. I'm so thankful that I passed my test with 2 minors with him in only 3 lesson. I recommend him to everybody.”

“I had Muhammad as my driving instructor for the Swindon area and it was amazing and couldn’t fault him at all I looked forward to every lesson and he was so professional through out the whole time I truly feel that he adapted to the way I learn and remained calm even when I made mistakes I’d rate him higher if I could!”

“I really enjoyed learning with AA Driving School. So much so that I’ve done it three times (due to things happening in life). Third times the charm they say haha. It’s a great Driving school. Raj my instructor was great. Knows how to get you to perform your best and is very chilled but professional when needs to be. Thank you!”

“The instructor was late, rude and then proceed to tell me he will take me for a drive even though and I quote "the DVLA says tou can not drive because of your eyes" how do you let people continue a lesson when they can not see?”

“Disappointing experience. Had one..ONE two hour lesson.. booked in 34 hours worth of lessons in advance. After 5 lessons cancelled by my instructor for various reasons I've given up. My first lesson was over a month ago, which feels like a waste because how am I supposed to remember what I learnt for two hours over a month ago. I've now asked for a refund and will find someone else.”

“I live in Battersea the area. The lessons are expensive which I did not mind but AA lessons are absolutely not worth the money. I chose AA for their excellent reputation. However I had a very rude instructor who was critical and shouting at me during lessons. I did not learn anything at all. I tried to complain and get support to change instructors and after 2 weeks of trying I still have had no support from AA and I have paid for a block of lessons! There is no phone number for customer service, if you need support it is all online and they are unresponsive!! Highly disappointed and giant waste of time and money!!”

“I've giving this service a one star, not because I think it deserves it but because I can't give any lower. Where to start? Well I guess I should probably lead with this. If you're looking to use this service with the hopes of reliability and punctuality, then don't and if you're hoping to pass with quick succession then don't, as well. I understand things happen, once, maybe even twice if you're unlucky, however, after about the forth time you start wondering what sort of sevice this company's offering? Driving lessons or lessons on how your times being wasted? If I was you I'd look into other instructors which will probably do you better than this company has me. I did try to get a new instructor using their website where you can request a change, but that was the last I heard about it, no email, no action, no nothing. Not only is their reliability questionable but I was supposed to have a lesson today at 13:30 (23/2/24), which per usually is a no show, but they haven't even had the decancy to inform me that they wont be showing up. Hence why I'm writing this review. Not only that but before my first test I had to have three lessons, one day after another (Saturday and Sunday) as my test was on the Monday. It was intended to be the Friday also but heyhoo, take a guess - They cancelled that one resulting in four hours of driving on the Sunday, which to a student can be quite draining and intimidating. Hell, it only took one day before my test to be told how to use the head lights. However, if you're still interrsted in using this company for lessons, good luck. Because you'll need it”

“I had a very bad experience with the AA driving School in Bournemouth. The allocated driving instructor Mr Anthony Ball did mot turn up for lessons on six occasions and on rhree of these he did not bother to reply to my messages or answer my calls. Avoid AA, no point in wasting your time, find a local driving instructor that you know or recommended from friends and relatives.”

“AA Driving School is the best driving school! My instructor Jasuthasn Rajkumar was very helpful and encouraging. I had taken the test 5 times before with different instructors and failed. On my first lesson with Rajkumar he asked what was causing me to failed. He quickly identified the problem which was roundabouts. Rajkumar then teach me how to approach the roundabouts from different entrances and exits. Each lessons he took me at different roundabouts giving prompts and praises when I entered and exited safely. Rajkumar is a very calm and friendly person, overall I had a great experience with him.”

“The AA has been an amazing driving school to start learning to drive. Very flexible with bookings and cancellations. My instructor Jasuthasan Rajkumar has been very helpful and great. He helped me quickly find a test date, allowing me to pass the first time. Could not ask for any better.”
