Intensive driving courses (Residential)

[SazzyC0]

Hi, does anyone have any experience or recommendations for this? I believe it is the only way I will ever pass but there are so many websites / options. TIA.

Speaking as a retired driving instructor of many years experience, I think that these intensive courses are a waste of time. There is a limit as to how much knowledge a person can take in, and after a while they just shut off, and the rest of the lesson is wasted. I used to find this quite often with pupils doing a 3 hour lesson, so just imagine what it would be like for someone to be doing 6 - 8 hours a day, 4 or 5 days on the trot, then having to sit their driving test at the end of it, it is just too much for most people.
I used to recommend that, if they wanted to learn quickly, the best way is to do 2 hours a day, for about 3 - 4 weeks, and this always seemed to work with my pupils
