Intensive Courses Driving School Reviews

fantastic service from beginning to end ! we had previously had a terrible experience with an intensive course company . Noel was reassuring and said he would make things run smoothly and work dates round my daughters university holidays. We were then lucky enough to get paired with Steve who was a superb instructor , friendly and patient putting my daughter at ease straight away and giving her the confidence to then go on and pass first time . we will definately be using this company for my son later this year !

Noel from Intenstive Courses, has been extremely proactive to set everything up on my behalf, especially given the huge driving test backlog. Sufice to say, I had 4 failed attempts in the past & my instructor Elaine has managed to turn this around with her relaxed & methodical teaching methods & extremely useful hints that definitely work - Elaine is an absolute star! Intensive Courses is the way to go if you want to pass your driving test

I took my intensive driving course in October as was struggling to pass my theory test and passed this first time I then passed my driving test first time on the 8th December great instructor was worth the money to get passed so quickly

Finally passed my driving test with Jay. He is a great teacher and lovely man. So grateful for his patience! Would highly recommend.

I had a fantastic experience learning with Laurence. Having previously failed my driving test twice and being prone to anxiety, I had avoided driving for the past few years. Laurence brought me from not having driven in a number of years (and having very little remaining confidence in driving) to passing my test within 24 hours of driving over ~a one month time period. He was encouraging, supportive, friendly and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to learn to drive.

Kester is a very dedicated teacher. I was by no means a natural driver and yet I passed first time (after a lot of lessons) largely due to Kester's trouble-shooting and consistency.

I booked a crash course split over 3 days on 21/07/22 and paid a deposit of £179 to intensivedriving and then paid the driver an initial £368 upfront Approximately 4 months later ,3 hours before my first lesson at 1pm the driver cancelled due to being sick. I was a bit upset as I could have gone to work that day, but these things happen. We talked on the phone to discuss rearranging the lessons. He said he would call me later that day to rearrange the missed lesson when he had his diary in front of him which he did not. As my test date was only a week away i thought it best to contact the company to make sure everything was ok, and I would not miss further lessons. They stated that all outstanding lessons would now done the day before my test date and on my test date. However, the instructor messaged me saying that the next lesson that we originally had booked was still on. I showed up for the lesson but read a email when I stepped off the tube stating that he was still sick and could not attend the lesson. He had decided to cancel another lesson 1 hour before it was due. I had now lost 2 days off work due to this instructor cancelling at the last minute Not only had I lost 2 days’ work due to short notice cancellations I’d also missed out on essential training a week before my test. It really was not possible for me to reschedule as I have collage exams for the rest of the week. I chose this company as they had good reviews on trust pilot. However, I am urging any potential student to read this carefully before you commit a large amount of money to these people. Gaynor who gets very defence whenever you explain a problem to her, laughed when I said that this was not acceptable and that I had rights as a consumer. I was told that I would have to contact the instructor to arrange a refund but after pointing out how poor the company had performed, I was told that I would be issued a refund that could take up to 14 days to process. I must state that after the mess that was the crash course, I was offered an alternative driver but wouldn’t risk using such an unreliable company. I also don’t have the spare time due to exams. Hopefully I will be able to find an emergency instructor for my test. As we all know there’s currently a waiting time off up to 6 months for test so missing it is not an option. I’ve also contacted the DVSA and explained the situation and ultimately, they will decide if the service fell below standard or not.

We love Noel and gaynor, it’s been a journey, what a great destination for kane , thank you so much , jay was brilliant 🤩

Best instructor ever lovely man. I would highly recommend I failed 4 times until I found jay and he managed to help me pass my test he was a game changer so happy with his service

Simon was a great instructor and know exactly what he is doing with each individual person. It felt like a true bespoke lesson. Made my driver training experience easy.

Excellent service and great experience,got my license in first attempt,best trainer around in hayes , I would recommend everyone if you wish to pass quickest you want 👍 Thanks again

Noel is really organised and Elaine is a really kind and relaxed instructor. She has so many hints and tips to help you remember important things as you learn. Thanks so much - definitely recommended.

From the first discussion I had with Noel in the office, to booking lessons with Rahan and ultimately passing my test, I was really impressed with Intensive Courses Driving School. In a time when finding tests has been so hard and stressful, they were very relaxed, helpful and efficient. They were quick to find me a test date and then put me in touch with my instructor Rahan. From there I was able to book my lessons around a busy work schedule, at times that suited me. Rahan was brilliant. Extremely affable but also very knowledgeable, patient, and a calming presence which was exactly what I needed. Good company all round. Would highly recommend. Thank you.

Had Glenn from intensive courses, had a 24 hour course booked with him, was ill on one of the days but he tried to do what he could to make these up for me. Any way he was a fantastic instructor and I passed 1st time with only 3 minors so thankyou.

Intensive driving are open in their communication and extremely easy to work with. Finding something hassle-free was important for me and intensive courses delivered on that. My instructor, Musaffar, that I was partnered with was an absolutely amazing teacher also. Thanks to him I’ve successfully passed my driving test first time.

Intensive course really help me with passing my test. They booked my test right away and updated me when an earlier test was available. My instructor was Jay and I cab honestly say he was amazing. Help me to pass my test but most importantly he trained me to he confident on the road which is something you don't really get with other instructors. I've had other instructors and every time I was always nervous.. . But Jay teaches you confidence which I believe is more important than pass!

The team at Intensive Driving were really helpful in getting my test booked as soon as possible, and arranging an instructor to get me up to test standard. My instructor, Rahan, was excellent - calm, very clear when giving instructions, and knowledgable. All of which ensured that I passed first time!

I booked a 45 hours course with this company. They helped me in every way possible, I couldn’t have asked for more. My driving instructor Steve, was the calmest and nicest bloke. I managed to pass first time and definitely won’t be looking back now! I advise anyone doing an intensive course to do it through this company, as they didn’t fault me once. Top stuff

Elaine is the best driving instructor I’ve had. I was not a natural or good driver after doing plenty of lessons with other instructors before. Elaine helped me to pass my driving test on the first attempt. Would definitely recommend!
