Client Reviews – Manual Intensive Courses

Yay I PASSED!!! I would like to thank the great team at Britannia driving school. My instructor Mary was brilliant, so calm and kind. Her intensive instruction course got me over the line this time after failed attempts with other instructors at different schools. I can’t recommend her enough. Thanks to all, Emma x

Just passed my test, could not have done it without Charlie he was fantastic!! He put me at ease and put up with me everyday through my one week intensive course. Thanks!!!

Amy Whitmore - Surbiton, Surrey (5th March 2015)

Passed first time, all thanks to lessons from Mary. Excellent patient teacher who helped build my confidence and driving skills. Cannot thank her and Britannia enough.

Jonny Makin - Tooting, London (20th February 2015)

I would like to thoroughly give a huge thank you to and wholeheartedly recommend Mary for being instrumental helping me pass my test. I have had many instructors in the past and none came anywhere near being as good as her. If you need someone to pass your test quickly then she is the one. Gareth

Gareth Edwards - Battersea, London (4th February 2015)

I had a fantastic time during my driving lessons with Darren. I passed after six days of intensive driving lessons with only three minors so I’m obviously very pleased with the result. To pass in only six days is a reflection of the quality of the teaching.
I felt completely at ease in the car and was always reminded in a constructive manner when I forgot to perform certain manoeuvres in the correct way.
In short, I would certainly recommend Darren to anyone learning to drive.

Adam Telling - Fulham, London (31st January 2015)

I used Britannia for a 7 day intensive course. Everything went very smooth from the booking online to receiving all the information i needed, then of course the lessons.
They were very efficient with booking me on my theory and my practical exam.
I had my lessons with Peter Owen who was a fantastic instructor, he had me driving with confidence in no time at all. Britannia and my instructor were both very flexible with timings and worked with me to find what ever was most suitable.
I would recommend Britannia to anyone!

Brendan Mcloughlin - Sutton, Surrey (24th January 2015)

Very good driving instructor. I learnt a lot from Elton and he was very patient and respectful. Elton also explained things clearly so I fully understood.

Junior Henry - Hounslow, Middlesex (7th January 2015)

I found my learning experience with Britannia instructor Jon F, to be highly competent throughout the entire process. His method of instruction is thorough and was also made dynamic to suit my needs.

Even though I didn’t manage to pass the first driving test because of nerves, Jon remained positive and encouraging. He quickly identified my weakness and prepared me for the next test, which I did manage to pass.

I found the service to be of a very high quality and there were no delays with head office processing application to book new theory and driving tests.

The experience was fun and I would recommend to any new student looking for an instructor to consider using Britannia.

Aysha Awwad - Richmond, Surrey (28th December 2014)

Passed my test today with Peter – an absolute legend! Without hesitation the best instructor I could have asked for – so thorough and calm, didn’t just teach me how to pass the test but has helped me build a solid foundation for my further driving experience. Brilliant instructor and a wonderful person too! Thank you, thank you, thank you! 🙂

Aliona Shi - Wimbledon, London (1st December 2014)

My instructor Paul Williams was fantastic. He was clear, calm and helped me get confident in the car from the get go. His teaching style was simple and effective putting me in great shape for the test, which I managed to pass first time.

Thomas Duffell - Morden, Surrey (29th October 2014)

I completed an intensive driving course with Peter Owen. I have to say he is a very professional highly qualified instructor and I feel lucky to have been taught by him. He doesn’t just teach you to get through your test he makes you understand the reason to everything you are taught. Thank you so much.

Ashley Ovenden - Ashford, Middlesex (3rd October 2014)

I have just passed my driving test first time after a week’s intensive course with George and I am over the moon! Britannia were very easy to deal with but it was George’s calm and direct instructions whilst I did my course that got me through. Thanks George!

Bridget White - Wandsworth, London (30th September 2014)

I had an intensive course with George S in Morden. He was really brilliant and could not have wished for a better driver instructor than him. I had to have a drivers licence as my husband was recently diagnosed with terminal brain tumour resulting in his licence being taken away. As you can imagine my circumstances are far from ideal to learn to drive however with the help of George I managed to do it. He was so empathetic, patient and extremely understanding of what I am going through and found a way to teach me despite all the ups and downs I had gone through. He calmed me down and helped me focus. I felt that I am talking to a friend and counsellor not just my driver instructor. I could not have done it without you George! I will miss our little chats but I am extremely glad that I have passed! A huge thank you! I could not recommend him high enough! You are in safe hands with him and guaranteed to pass!

Emoke Milton - Morden, London (24th September 2014)

I passed my driving test back in June with Graham, he is the best instructor I could recommend! I passed within 2 and a half months of my 17th Birthday. Graham was a laugh to learn to drive with, and someone who was laid back.
Thank you!

Megan Drinkwater - Addlestone, Surrey (3rd September 2014)

Huge thanks to Mary who got me through my driving test and helped me to pass with flying colours.

I had had two different driving instructors in the past and had recently failed my first test in the countryside. I was hugely lacking in confidence and was even more nervous about driving in London. I did a 6 day intensive course (driving 2 hours a day) with Mary. She really helped me to polish my driving skills and with her encouragement get the confidence I needed to take the test with uncharacteristically few nerves on the day. A massive thank you to you Mary, I couldn’t have passed without you!

I’d also like to thank the girls in the Britannia office who I spoke to a few times on the phone. They were always so helpful, kind and supportive.

A big thank you to all at Britannia Driving School for helping me finally get my driving licence!

Karina Piechowiak - Stockwell, London (27th August 2014)

Thank you to Britannia and to my instructor Tim!
I was very inconsistent with driving lessons until I did a 6 day intensive course with Tim and passed with only 1 minor.
Tim was brilliant, he put me at ease and made me feel so much more confident behind the wheel, would highly recommend!

Laura Carter - Twickenham, Middlesex (21st August 2014)

My parents gave me a weeks intensive course of driving lessons for my 17th birthday so I could start driving as soon as possible! I had one of the senior trainers as my instructor, Peter Owen, who could not have been better. Pete was a brilliant instructor who helped me pass my driving test in 10 days! I thoroughly enjoyed my week with Pete and I would definitely recommend booking an intensive course with Britannia to everyone.

India Hewitt - Coulsdon, Surrey (8th August 2014)

I had a one week intensive course 15 hours training with Graham who is a true expert at his work. Passed 1st time and am over the moon and very happy. Thanks Graham.

Lisa Readhead - Reigate, Surrey (4th August 2014)

Took a 15 hr intensive course with Nick. Great instructor passed with only 1 minor. Thanks guys

Oscar Norman - Kingston Upon Thames (31st July 2014)

I had a 27 hour intensive course with Nick from Britannia and am thrilled to say that I passed first time with his help. I would really recommend using both Britannia and Nick as the intensive courses are reasonably priced and Nick will get the job done!
