Pros of intensive courses

An intensive driving course with Drive247 Leicester is a great choice when it comes to learning to drive. If you need to pass fast or even make sure you are ready for a test, then an intensive course may be the way to go. With one of our intensive courses, you can be out on the road anywhere between 1-6 weeks. Passing your test with this small time frame is only possible when you go for intensive lessons.

Another perk of intensive lessons is that you make sure your lessons are not interrupted. When you learn with one of our dedicated driving instructors in Leicester, they will ensure your lessons are frequently happening and within your dedicated time frame. If you find learning easier when you do it in blocks, this is the better option for you. Taking this option will cost the same price as normal lessons, but by choosing an intensive course, you can be driving long before you would if you chose normal lessons.

  • Learn within 1-6 weeks with a dedicated instructor
  • Taking all of your lessons over a dedicated time period will help you build upon the fundamentals
  • We can help you book a test making sure you have a deadline to work towards
