Don't Want Your Lessons To Drag Forever So Opt For Intensive Driving Courses And Get Done With Your Test

When you are learning to drive, it is advisable to stick to it until you pass your test. Some people take lessons that are much spaced apart like every other week or once a month. This is a very bad way to learn as you need as much practice as you can get, so having lessons more frequently like twice a week or once every week is the best way to pass quicker. It's a misconception when people say it'll cost more because if you take driving lessons regularly, then you'll pass quicker whereas if you take lessons too spaced apart, you might find that you need more lessons to keep you refreshed.

If, however you are fortunate enough to have a parent who can fund your driving lessons, then you may want to try intensive driving courses. They are just like standard driving lessons only you spend more time behind the wheel in any one session. Similar to a crash course in driving, instead of learning in 6 months, it's all crammed into one week.

There are intensive driving course packages where you stay in a hotel for a week and the instructor comes to pick you up every day for your lesson. The idea for this was introduced as there are not many qualified intensive driving course instructors out there, so you may have to travel to find a reputable one with a high success rate. You can also opt to have residential courses if you would like to but not all driving schools offer them.

If you are a quick learner and like to finish tasks quickly, then this course is for you. It is also ideal if you have a busy life or have study commitments as it'll take less time to complete than the standard process of taking lessons weekly. The average cost of driving lessons taken up to the point where you are fully qualified is in the region of £1,200 while the cost of an intensive driving course can be completed in as little as £800, so it works out cheaper and you could save £400 and put it towards the cost of a new car.

To bring the costs down even more, you could try looking further afield for the course provider as the prices vary a lot. By travelling a little further, you could save hundreds of pounds even with accommodation thrown in. The success rate for an intensive driving course is good but for you to secure a guaranteed pass, you must be a willing participant. You won't get your full driving licence if you don't listen and assume you know it all; some course providers also offer you a free test if you fail the first one.

Before you choose a driving school, read some reviews and do a lot of research and do not let money be the deciding factor. Just because you've found someone who's willing to give you a cheap intensive driving course does not mean they are better and the same goes for overpriced competitors as well. If possible always go with an instructor that was recommended by a friend or family member.
