Intensive Driving Courses York

BRILLIANT course, highly recommended to anyone.
BRILLIANT instructor, and a very big thankyou to Micheal for all the support and guidance to help me pass!:)
Thankyou.

Having never so much as sat in the drivers’ seat of a car before, I enrolled on a One Week Driving Course (the 48hr Guaranteed Pass), desperately hoping that – with a little determination and some serious dedication – I could pass in time to be driving my wife, two cats and I around to visit everyone for Christmas this year: no longer having to deal with incessant bloody trains! Paired with Sadegh – perhaps the most calm and patient person I’ve ever met – as my instructor, I achieved that end in no time. We began on Sunday 1st November (driving for 6 hours each day), for a total of 8 flexible days, and – on Wednesday 11th (a mere 10 days later!) – I took and passed my test, first time (with only 2 minors recorded). It was – to put it plainly – utterly exhausting: but absolutely, 100%, worth it. It’s difficult to describe just how tiring – mentally and physically – driving for such a solid, condensed period of time actually is: but it certainly prepares you for what’s required in your test. My instructor Sadegh put his absolute trust and faith in me from day one (a rather “throw you in at the deep end: sink or swim” teaching ethos), which I feel worked wonders for my learning curve: I found myself desperately wanting to prove I was worthy of that trust, and aimed to be the best I could each and every time I got behind the wheel – and put my hand on the gearstick – of that little Nissan Micra. As the test centres closest to my area were all booked up, I was sent to Wanstead, in East London, for my test. As anyone who takes a minute to search “Wanstead driving test”, or anything similar, will find: the place has the highest first-time fail rate in the entire country, with negative comments and driving test horror stories in abundance… I was terrified. I felt ready, however: confident and prepared; and I wasn’t going to let anything affect my chances of getting a pass but me. I treated the test the same as any other day: imagined that it was just my instructor Sadegh sat beside me, and that I was simply putting what he’d taught me into practice as i’d done each day for the past week or so. And, to my utter relief, it worked. As a bonus (as if the pass wasn’t enough reward in itself), I was immediately refunded £200 – as promised – for passing first time. The whole thing worked, in fact. I would whole-heartedly recommend it to anyone who is serious about learning to drive. No messing around: just you and your instructor; in a car together for a week; one goal on which to focus; practice; practice; practice… and you’re ready. To all at One Week Driving Course, and to my fantastic instructor… Thank you. Aaron.

I did a 30 hour intensive course with instructor Anthony Hughes, and would 100% recommend the course! I’ve done driving lessons before doing weekly lessons and I found that it didn’t really work for me, it always felt that my progress and confidence was being lost by having to wait a whole week to drive again. By doing an intensive course with 5 hour lessons I made progress so quickly and it really helped with my confidence. I passed my driving test sooner than I ever imagined I could, and I personally think the course was great value for money, as the previous time I learnt I spent more than that and got no where near the same standard. I would also highly recommend my instructor Anthony, he was extremely patient and helpful and really helped to reduce my anxiety around driving. 100%

Firstly the booking process is very clear and straight forward. I spoke to a lady who helped me with booking the correct course and answered all questions I had. Once, I had booked the course, the service was also great when booking my practical test. They managed to book a practical test at the end of my 18 hour course which was convenient. As I started my course, I met my driving instructor Alan. I couldn’t fault Alan, he was brilliant. I was quite nervous to start off with but he made me feel at ease with his very calm approach. He was a great instructor who I would highly recommend. I liked the format of an intensive course, it seemed to really benefit more than weekly lessons. I really really recommend this great service, brilliant company! .
