Many people
feel that hourly lessons go on and on forever. One
of the many advantages of an intensive course that
you learn to drive over a short period of time.
We recommend
that courses are strictly one to one so that you can
learn at your own pace. Your instructor will monitor
your ability on a continuous basis and discuss your
progress with you regularly.
Take advantage
of our introductory lesson offer. This will give you
and your instructor the chance to get to know each
other. Your instructor will then be able to
assess your driving and give you sound advice on the
best course of action for you.
Typically
courses can last from one to five days with morning
and afternoon sessions each lasting two or three hours
with occasional breaks and seperated by a lunch break
of at least an hour.
You or
your instructor should arrange your driving test a
few days after completion of your course. Experience
shows that you will perform better on test if you
are well rested and fresh on the day. Consider leaving
enough time to cancel the test without loss of the
test fee if necessary. Just knowing that you have
the option will help prevent molehills becoming mountains
during your course and make the whole experience much
more enjoyable.
Learning with a local driving instructor is preferable
to a residential intensive driving course. Without
the added cost of travel and accomodation it will
be cheaper too. Residential driving courses almost
invariably involve taking the practical driving test
on the last day of the course. Far better to take
the test in a relaxed frame of mind after a few day's
break from constant driving and a good night's sleep
in your own bed.
A practical
test cannot be booked until you have passed your Theory
test therefore it is recommended, though not essential,
that you pass the Theory test before commencing an
intensive course. Your instructor will be glad
to advise when you arrange your introductory lessons.
