Based my 10hr previous experience with an instructor and 15 hours in my partner’s car, I booked a 30hr – 5 day course, starting on a Monday with the test on the Friday. The booking process was simple and quick and I was assigned my instructor, Stephen Lee, within a few days of booking and sent confirmation of my test date and time on pretty much the same day. Stephen called to arrange my hours the week before my course – he was very friendly and calmed my pre lesson nerves and assured me that he would be able to help me build my confidence. And he definitely did just that ! Stephen picked me up on the first day and talked with me about my past driving experience and having assessed my ability / nerves then had me going through the basics, threw in a couple of manoeuvres and by the end of the day had me driving around Chelmsford with something close to confidence. On days 2 and 3, my confidence had grown enormously, thanks to Stephen’s constant support and coaching. He was very patient with my nervous breakdowns on roundabouts and dual carriageways and by the 4th day they had pretty much stopped altogether. The 4th day, Stephen had me carry out 2 mock tests, which he deliberately made difficult to give me a realistic idea of what I was going to face on my test. I failed both of these, but we then spent time talking about the mistakes and how to avoid them. On the morning of my test (Friday 1st December), Stephen picked me up early and throughout the morning kept me calm and focused – the test wasn’t until 1:35 so we had time to polish up manoeuvres and work on the mistakes from my mocks. At 10am, we got a call to say my test was cancelled. We carried on with the rest of the lesson, going over the requirements for the new test as it was now booked for the following week where the test would be in the new format. Stephen was so positive throughout and reminded me that this allowed me more practice time with loved ones over the weekend which was a real bonus. We arranged to have a couple more hours before the test on the Wednesday the following week in which I was able to show Stephen much more confidence and, incredibly, pretty calm nerves. Stephen had prepared me really well for the expectations of the new format of the test even though it was brand new. I passed first time with 7 minors! Thank you so much Steve! You were amazing! Could not recommend enough!

What an experience, best decision I ever made to do crash course. Completed and passed within 2weeks. I did the intensive 24hr course which was perfect for me. Thanks to my instructor Mohammed for giving me lots of tips and helping me build my confidence. Definitely would recommend as it’s quick, happy that i got an available slot just as I was doing my lessons, this gave me more dedication to being ready for the actual test. Thanks once again👍🏾

I think this is a great way for learners to get their licence. The service and quality we’re fantastic as I felt comfortable and bonded with my instructor throughout the course, which I believe played an important role and helped me achieve my goal. It is a course I would definitely recommend to my friends and family. Massive thanks to Dhler and the one week course driving team.

After taking several driving tests as a teenager and failing I gave up. At 35 with 3 kids I couldn’t put it off anymore. My instructor was amazing, patient and really boosted my confidence. I went into my test ready and knowing I had all the tools I needed to pass. I have now gained my independence back and can’t wait to get driving! Thank you so much!
