What Our Students Have to Say

Ian was wonderful. He was the right amount of calm and constructive for me to feel very comfortable and confident throughout. I thoroughly enjoyed my experience learning with Ian.

Can’t say enough about it!!! Superb!! Chris Munton my instructor was absolutely superb!! Very relaxing!! Very patient and a top bloke!! Lovely little car to learn in too!! 100% do it again.

I booked an intensive course in Watford as although I had taken lessons in the past, I felt a week of continual learning would be the best way for me to keep my focus. From the moment I paid my deposit I was kept informed by email and text of all the necessary information I would need, theory/practical test dates and my instructors information. I was paired with Lee who from the outset not only put my mind at ease but gave me the confidence to know I was and could be a good driver. The thorough nature of the course itself and especially Lee made sure I turned up to the test with the best planning. I will admit I did fail (still don’t think it was my fault!) and failed again 2 weeks later (probably my fault!!), but with the training and Lee’s words ringing in my ears I passed 3rd time round (apparently all the best drivers pass 3rd time…. ). Not only did I pass, but I managed to ‘keep a clean sheet’ with no minors at all. I would recommend One Week Driving Course to anybody who was looking to not only learn the skills needed for driving, but the confidence needed to put these skills into action. A great instructor, a first class course from original booking to passing my test and overall an absolute pleasure – without overselling the point I would give these guys 6 stars if I could!!

From Start to Finish the whole booking process and arranging my test date and correspondence between myself and One week was great.
I would highly recommend an intensive course to anyone as-long as you can listen and absorb information quickly.
My driving instructor Ian Swatton was a perfect match for me and taught me not only the skills to pass my test but also to continue driving with all situations that arise after test day. He was a great teacher and his approach is exactly what I needed.
To summarise the whole process was great I took a 30 hour course started Monday and passed on the Friday.
5 star review – Thanks again .
