Shah is an exceptional driving instructor, and I couldn’t have asked for anyone better! As a very anxious learner, I always felt at ease during lessons—he never put me under pressure and was incredibly patient and supportive. Shah focused on improving my weakest areas with precision, which made a huge difference. Thanks to his effective teaching style and well-structured lessons, I passed with nearly 6 hours less than the average time it usually takes! I can’t recommend him enough—thank you, Shah!

A big thank you to Instructor Shah for his invaluable guidance and practical lessons in preparing me for my driving test. His deep understanding of how the exam works, combined with his focus on improving my driving skills, made all the difference. My test center was in Morden, and he carefully walked me through all the tricky points on each possible test route. Most importantly, he helped me build the confidence I needed—an essential factor for passing a driving test in London.

Every lesson, I was learning something and was improving every lesson so a huge thank you to zeba. I also want to thank Ammara as I did the test in her car and she is also an amazing instructor.

Learning to drive with Noroz was brilliant! He's super patient and really knows his stuff. He explains things clearly, so you actually understand what you're doing and why. Plus, he's got a great sense of humour, which makes lessons way less stressful. He never made me feel bad for messing up, just helped me learn from it. I passed my test no problem thanks to him. If you want a top-notch instructor who's also a good laugh, definitely go with Noroz!

I passed my driving test first attempt this morning, thanks to the exceptional guidance I received from Mr. Shah. He has been an incredibly patient and understanding instructor throughout my learning journey. I always felt comfortable asking him questions, even repeatedly, and he was more than willing to explain things as many times as needed until I felt confident. His constant reassurance helped me overcome my self-doubt, and I’m so grateful for his support. Thank you 🙏🏼

Junaid is an excellent instructor who was patient and supportive throughout my learning process.

Thanks to him, I passed my driving test on the first attempt with only one driving fault!Shah was incredibly patient and supportive throughout every lesson. He not only taught me the essential driving skills but also helped me build my confidence on the road. His lessons were tailored to my specific needs, focusing on areas where I needed extra support, and he was very flexible with scheduling, which made the process even smoother.I only needed three lessons with him, and his understanding approach made a huge difference. If you’re looking for an instructor who works at your pace and truly wants to see you succeed, I highly recommend Shah!

It is a significant achievement for me to have passed my test. I am deeply grateful to my instructor Zeba , who was exceptionally polite, knowledgeable, and thorough.

Zeba was an amazing instructor. I in fact booked 10 hours with her at the beginning of the year where she got me to where she thought I could pass my test, however when booking my driving test I got a date at the end of the year and so booked in some refreshers closer to my exam.Zeba taught me the correct and safe way to drive. Was encouraging and corrected my faults in a clear way. I would recommend her to anyone who has never driven a car, doesn’t have a car to practise on and who has had little experiencing driving.I passed the first time!

I cannot recommend my driving instructor, Shah, highly enough. My friends and family thought I was ‘unteachable’ and doubted I’d ever drive, but Shah completely changed that. He was incredibly patient, clear in his instructions, and truly an exceptional teacher. Thanks to his guidance, I now feel confident in my driving abilities—something I never imagined I’d say. Shah always believed in me, even when I didn’t believe in myself. I’m so grateful to have passed my test, and if I could give more than five stars, I would! Thank you so much, Shah!

Thanks to Shah, I passed my test on the first attempt! I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a top-notch driving instructor. He is truly dedicated to his students’ success.From the very first lesson,Shah was professional & patient. He provided clear, calm & concise instructions, and always explained the objectives of the next lesson.He was always cheery, and easy to talk to, responsive to messages, amenable to schedule changes & willing to repeat manoeuvres until I was truly confident with them. He will let you know when you are ready. Due to the wait for examinations being quite long, it’s best to go in ready so as not to need to wait moths for a re-attempt.

Frequently Asked Questions

In general, anyone who meets the minimum age and licence requirements set by their country or state can take an intensive driving course. However, it is important to note that some driving schools or instructors may have additional eligibility criteria or requirements that must be met before enrolling in an intensive driving course.

The cost of an intensive driving course can vary depending on a few factors, such as the location, the duration of the course, and the provider you choose. However, on average, an intensive driving course in the UK can cost anywhere from £300 to £1,500.

Some intensive driving courses may boast a high success rate, citing figures such as 90% or even 95% pass rates for their students. It is crucial to note, however, that these data can be difficult to verify and may not be typical of all intensive driving course students

While an intensive driving course is a possibility if you have no prior driving experience, it may not be the ideal solution for everyone. Intensive driving courses are meant to educate trainees to drive in less time than standard driving courses.

We have no doubt that a two-week course and exam can be completed… However, we remain sceptical that this will provide a solid foundation for lifelong safe and effective driving.

When applying for your practical test, there is no minimum requirement for practice hours or sessions attended. All you need is a provisional licence and proof of passing your driving theory test. While this demonstrates that intensive driving instruction is doable, we all know that practice makes perfect.

Whether or not an intensive driving course is worth it depends on the individual learner’s needs and circumstances. Consider the advantages and disadvantages of an intensive course, as well as your individual needs and abilities, to determine if it’s the right choice for you.
