INTENSIVE COURSES
Intensive driving lessons and courses do have their advantages over once weekly lessons in as much as they are cost effective; overall learning time is reduced because understanding and skill development is retained far quicker, resulting in cheaper lessons.
Please note: When learning to drive initially some people can be overwhelmed by the skill set and co-ordination required. Therefore, the period of time to complete the course would be punctuated with intervals and vary from pupil to pupil dependent on how quickly they can absorb the learning.
REFRESHER COURSES
- Even if you’ve been driving for years, you may feel that you’d benefit from extra coaching. We will help to identify areas where improvements could be made, including observation, anticipation, planning and ironing out bad habits.
- Required by employers to undertake additional training to keep insurance costs down.
