⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Eleanor C.
What an excellent driving instructor. Having passed my test 20 years ago and then not driven since, I was very nervous about getting back on the road. He gave me the confidence and skills through a course of refresher lessons to regain my independence as a driver, and we had a lot of laughs along the way. I learnt a lot of deep knowledge that I am passing onto family and friends. Thank you very much for your patience and support!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Emily Kim
Have been taking refresher lessons with the instructor and he is really an amazing instructor. He explains everything very clearly and helps me a lot with my driving. I have improved so much since I took lessons with him. Highly recommend Ak automatic driving school!

I have never driven in the UK and I had couple of sessions with AK Automatic. Ak is a very good teacher and takes the time to explain everything clearly and in a way of helping to build your confidence. I highly recommend them.

Fantastic instructor I had not driven for over ten years and was very nervous but so glad I found Ak. Only three lessons in and I have learnt so much and am excited to be driving again. Recommended for any learner or refresher lessons.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Kirsty Knight
I just started some refresher driving lessons after 12 years of not driving and I was very nervous about driving again but after 2 lessons I am already feeling very comfortable being back in a car and my nerves are slowly fading away. I highly recommend AK automatic! Very friendly service and put me at ease!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Vishal C.
I was a very nervous driver before I met Ak. When I met him, I straight away felt confident in the way he spoke to me and knew I had made the right decision and was in safe hands. My journey towards passing my test hasn’t ended but I know with help of Ak I am in good stead towards not only passing my test but also being a safe and confident driver. Thanks to Ak

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Michael Loft
When I first start learning I had a few fears of driving, but this very quickly went away with Ak guidance My confidence in driving has exploded and I have learnt so much especially how to be a safe and confident driver. I’m half way through my training and am looking forward to passing with the knowledge AK has given me. Thank you so much!

I Had the pleasure of sitting in on one of Ak’s lessons in preparation for my part three (ADI) exam, it was a great learning experience seeing how he made the pupil feel at ease, past across the key reference points and encouraged the pupil to analyse their own faults in order to gain a greater understanding on how to drive the vehicle safely and to the standards required.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Michael Pollard
I recently sat in on one of Ak lessons whilst training for my part 3 ADI (approved driving instructor) exam, I found his method of teaching meticulous, taking time to explain in great detail all aspects of the chosen subject. Ak takes time to ensure that his pupils are comfortable with what they are doing and encourages them to take more responsibility as the lesson moves on, he is patient and calm throughout this giving an enjoyable and informative all-round experience. I would highly recommend him as an instructor and trainer.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ James Fernyhough
I was learning to drive again after a 14-year break and wanted to learn in an automatic car. Akhtar was recommended to me by a friend. I found Ak to be very helpful and found that I picked things up and learnt quickly and could see progress during every lesson. I would definitely recommend Ak and have already recommended him to some friends. Ak took all COVID-19 safety precautions very seriously.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ J Lawrence
As a woman in my late 40’s I decided that I should try learning to drive again.
I had failed a number of manual driving tests over 20 years ago through nerves and thought that learning on an automatic might be better for me.
After contacting AK driving school Ak took me for a trail lesson to see if I wanted to go ahead and book lessons, I was still very nervous but I think from that first lesson Akhtar had more confidence in me then I had in myself.
It has taken quite a few months of ups and downs and Ak has pushed me to do better even when I didn’t want to and did not think I could, he was 100% committed to me passing first time and believed that I could.
Ak prepared me for my actual driving test with mock tests and going through all the test requirements and manoeuvres, he said we would not do for the real test unless I was ready as there is the option to change the date.
We did not move the test date and I went and I passed first time. Thank you, Ak.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Ben L
One of my ADI friends recommend me ak as a ADI (Approved Driving Instructor) trainer. Ak is helping me to prepare my part 3 ADI exams, he really has opened my eyes to the hole part 3 test. I highly recommend ak as a driving instructor trainer. According to my experience AK driving school is one of the best driving schools in Brighton and Hove. 100% recommend!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Tina L.
My tutor is quite experienced and patient with me. And he could control the process and made detailed learning plan for you.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Isaac B.
Ak Automatic driving school great and Ak is a fantastic instructor. I had previously 2 different instructors and failed my test 5 times but Ak really went the extra mile. After 15 hours of lessons with him I passed with only 2 minors. Can’t rate AK Automatic driving school highly enough.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Matthew F.
Passed my test first time with 0 minors! My 2 previous instructors were awful. Ak was amazing and without him I’d have never passed.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Kayleigh Fahey
Ak is a brilliant instructor. I was so nervous and reluctant to return to learning after having problems with another instructor, but he was so patient, kind and really made me feel at ease… I looked forward to my lesson every week.
Ak teaches to a high standard; I passed first time with few minors and am now really confident behind the wheel! Id highly recommends Ak and am so grateful to him!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wendy H.
Ak is so patient with a great sense of humour. I was nervous and convinced I couldn’t ever drive. He made me feel safe and far more confident. Highly recommended!
