Client Reviews – Manual Intensive Courses

With Britannia I did an intensive driving course however, before I started the driving course I was finding it hard to pass my theory. Britannia staff would answer any questions which I had regarding the theory and was interested in helping me to pass informing me of a class I could attend to also help with further revision and also to use their website to practice. The staff behind the desk were extremely helpful and answered any questions I needed. Once I started the driving course, my driving instructor helped me whilst taking a practical lesson with questions that I found difficult with the theory and this resulted in the next time I took the test I passed after many attempts. Once I had passed the theory Britannia took my details and organised my practical driving test, this was just 6 days after passing my theory! My driving instructor was excellent because he gave me the confidence that I needed to pass my driving test, he would go over things if I was unsure and would make sure that I was completely happy with what I was doing before moving on. He also took me on the test route the whole way through the week to make sure I was familiar with the area! I was extremely happy with the intense course which I have done and have passed my driving test first time!! Thank you for all your help! 🙂 I will definitely be recommending this driving school to friends and family in the future.

Sian Harwood - Sutton, Surrey (9th April 2013)

Thanks so much – my instructor was an amazing teacher- I feel really confident as a new driver now. Britannia is a really good school.

Elsa Boutaric - Isleworth, Middlesex (4th April 2013)

Britannia is definitely the best place to go for learning to drive. I took an intensive manual course, and passed with just 6 minors! My instructor Darren was just brilliant. Funny, friendly and with a great sense of humour, he made the driving lessons something to look forward to! With a great teaching method, he quickly identified my faults and rectified them in an easy manner. Thanks to everyone at Britannia for all their efforts!

Jon Sharpe - Fulham, London (1st April 2013)

I passed my test with my instructor Paul and could not recommend him more. Extremely helpful and punctual (not that I can say the same for me, sorry Paul!) he was very helpful and understanding. I couldn’t have done it without him, cheers Britannia for sending me such an awesome instructor to get me over this massive speed bump!!

Eleanor Corbin - Wimbledon, London (26th March 2013)

My driving instructor Nick was a consummate professional. He was very patient and his knowledge of the area and of the test program meant that even I was able to pass first time. He was a very nice guy as well and a pleasure to spend time with during the lessons. Thoroughly recommended!

Richard Lowe - Clapham, London (7th March 2013)

Started my course last week with Neil. A great instructor, he made me feel at ease on the road at all times despite learning in a few tricky areas. I booked 27 hours and managed to pass in only 21 hours much to my surprise. Would highly recommend Britannia and Neil.

Richard Gibson - Kingston upon Thames, Surrey (2nd March 2013)

Passed first time today with 5 minors. John ROCKS!!!!

Chloe Street - Battersea, London (1st March 2013)

I passed my test first time today, and I can’t thank my Britannia instructor Robert enough! He motivated me to stay confident and never gave up on me, would highly recommend him to anyone, thanks so much Robert!

Hannah Caspersz - Twickenham, Surrey (20th February 2013)

I passed earlier today with just 4 minors. My instructor Jane was very patient throughout my lessons and encouraged me even when I felt like I wanted to give up. Feeling at ease with Jane meant that I could take control of the car and was more confident in my own ability. I would recommend Jane to any other student who is looking to drive with Britannia, she is a very bubbly yet patient instructor who not only has a unique way of teaching you how to drive, but makes the lessons pleasant even when situations may be stressful. Learn with Jane! 🙂

Jessica Mcguigan - Wallington, Surrey (19th February 2013)

I passed my test thanks to my instructor John. He’s the best instructor, not only is he very experienced, he’s also very funny and caring. Always made me laugh. He never gave up on me, even at times when I was getting frustrated and annoyed with myself. Whenever I would make a mistake, he would pull me over straight away and tell me exactly what I did wrong and how to correct it so I don’t make that same mistake again. His way of teaching is excellent. I was taking lessons with another driving school but then moved to Britannia because I felt I wasn’t going anywhere with former. I read all the reviews about John and knew exactly at that very moment, I needed him. Fast forward a few weeks later, here I am with my license, writing about John 🙂 I cannot thank and recommend him enough. Best man for the job! Thank you John and Britannia.

Shay Reebye - Carshalton, Surrey (18th February 2013)

I can’t thank John enough for the past week. I had an intensive course of lessons and passed!!! John really was great, he put me at ease and gave me clear and easy to understand instructions. He was polite and friendly and his fail safe step by step technique for the maneuvers made them seem almost easy!!!! Thank you John, I will be seeing you soon for Pass Plus!!!

Sarah Varley - Tooting, London (15th February 2013)

Big thanks to Charlie. Just passed on my second attempt. Without his patience and confidence in me, it probably would have taken a lot longer. Thanks.

Jack Onslow - Kingston upon Thames, Surrey (8th February 2013)

Third Time lucky with John! I have passed my practical driving test at the third attempt. At last! I am extremely grateful for the quality of the teaching I received from John. Without his patience, his thoroughness, his common sense and above all his great sense of humour, I do not think that I would have been able to achieve this result. Many thanks to you John!

Mathieu Doublet - Stockwell, London (8th February 2013)

I passed my test yesterday and just wanted to say a massive thanks to my driving instructor Alex. He is a great teacher, whilst being patient, kind and also good fun. I would not hesitate to recommend him!

Petra Bailey - Brixton, London (5th February 2013)

“Maintain your position” We did it MARY! I passed my driving test today! With two minors. Mary was a God-send, it was like learning to drive with an older sister or a very good friend. I will always remember her words to me “maintain your position” those words will stay with me for the rest of my life. Thanks Mary.

Cheryl Weeks - Mitcham, London (29th January 2013)

Needing to get my driving license for work, within a month, I decided to opt for a Intense Driving Course. Britannia was affordable, prompt and professional; they found me a test within a few days. My driving instructor Robert, was always on time, helpful, knowledgeable with the local area and was always encouraging. I had a very positive experience throughout, from booking to test day and couldn’t have asked for better.

Solomon Dolphin - Worcester Park, Surrey (10th January 2013)

I would like to say a massive thank you to my intensive course instructor, Nick. He really understood my thought process and how I worked. Being heavily pregnant, driving for 6 hours a day was hard work and he promised I would pass my test before new year as time was of the essence and I did. Thanks to Britannia for managing to get me a test on top of Christmas with my preferred test centre. I would highly recommend Britannia and Nick in particular to anyone that wants a team of people to help them pass their driving test to a high standard and as quickly as possible. Thanks again, Charlie.

Charlie Gaspar - Coulsdon, Surrey (9th January 2013)

James is a fantastic instructor and made me laugh constantly, he has a very calm and reassuring manner and was very easy to get on with. Lessons were always enjoyable and felt productive, would definitely recommend learning with him.

Mark Wadham - Morden, Surrey (4th January 2013)

New years eve nerves! I booked my test for new years eve, wasn’t sure if that was a good idea or not, but sure enough passed first time with 6 minors! Was all thanks to James, he was a fabulous instructor who was always calm and reassuring. A genuinely lovely person who gave great advice. I never thought I would pass first time but thanks to him I did!

Emily Hodgkinson - Wimbledon, London (2nd January 2013)

Just wanted to say a huge thank you to Alex who has been a fantastic instructor and incredibly patient with me! Managed to pass my first test and all down to him so thank you.
