Expert Instructors, Professional Guidance

Our Story: From First Gear to Grade A
Founded by Jose Ojeda, Amigos Driving School began with one clear goal: to help people learn to drive safely, confidently, and enjoyably.
After years in welding, hospitality, and care work, Jose followed his passion for driving and teaching, earning his place as a fully qualified DVSA Grade A instructor. Now, with glowing 5-star reviews and referrals from happy students, he’s proud to run a local school that feels more like learning with a friend than a formal classroom.
From day one, Jose has focused on delivering lessons in a calm, welcoming environment, one that builds trust and sets learners up for real-world driving success, not just the test.

What We Stand For
Safety. Confidence. Respect.
Our mission is to create drivers who are not only test-ready but truly road-ready. That means we don’t just teach routes, we prepare you for life behind the wheel.
We do this by:
- Putting your learning needs first
- Teaching at your pace, not ours
- Building confidence through positive reinforcement
- Supporting English and Spanish-speaking learners equally
- Creating a respectful, relaxed space where you feel empowered to learn
As our name suggests, we treat every learner like a friend, with patience, professionalism, and positivity.
