Cannot recommend enough!


So incredibly thankful to Pradeep for his continuous encouragement, support and guidance. As somebody who has always been very anxious when it comes to driving, I never imagined I would pass first time after an intensive course but here we are! I found Pradeep to be very thorough, patient and just an all round great instructor. Had I not passed first time, I absolutely would have re-booked with him - cannot recommend enough! It’s been a pleasure 🤩

Highly Recommend Pradeep - Top Class Instructor

I did a 20 Hour Course with Pradeep at Bristol Intensives and I could not recommend them enough. I was really struggling with my confidence and Pradeep was amazing at helping me to control my anxiety whilst driving, and explained everything perfectly and clearly in a way I would understand. He really adapts the teaching style to his pupils and I felt so comfortable with him from the second I met him. Thanks again Pradeep for your patience with me and never giving up on me no matter how much i doubted myself! I was convinced I was not going to pass my test, but thanks to Pradeeps support i managed to pass my test with 7 minors! Thank you so much again Pradeep, anyone who gets to learn with you is very lucky! 😊

Thanks to Pradeep I passed my test (ADHD/anxious driver) with…

Thanks to Pradeep I passed my test with five minors. I honestly thought I'd never pass because I'm too anxious and overthink everything. Pradeep quickly realised this and adapted his teaching style, which previous instructors have failed to do. He's incredibly kind, encouraging and truly knows his stuff. I'm going to book some future lessons with him so that I can get some practice on the motorways.

Learning to drive with Bristol Intensives

Learning to drive with Bristol Intensives and with Pradeep was made as easy as it can be. Pradeep was a great instructor - very clear and personable, and I felt myself making real progress. He helped me be calm when it came to my test, and I passed. Even though finding tests is tricky, they managed to find me one in just over a month from when I started. Recommend highly.

Excellent driving instructor

I did an intensive course with Pradeep, who I can't recommend enough. He was patient, friendly, and calm, always supporting me to stay relaxed and positive while learning. He did a great job explaining technical aspects of driving so that even some of the more difficult parts felt easy. He also did an excellent job preparing me for the test as I passed on the first attempt.

Even helpful for experienced drivers

Theo was great. Even as a fully qualified driver from abroad, I still felt like the lessons were valuable. He was full of information about nuances in road law, helpful techniques for parking, and what to be aware of for the test.

He also was very flexible with hours which was a godsend for someone working full time. I'd highly recommend the course.

I had a couple of different instructors and had failed a few practical tests before finding Bristol Intensives. My instructor was Pradeep and he made me feel very comfortable and I knew I was in good hands straight away! With Pradeep’s guidance I was able to pass my test with no driving faults whatsoever, I can’t thank him enough.

35 hour intensive

I started the intensive course with only a few hours of previous driving experience with a family member. Pradeep is an excellent teacher - very detailed and thorough. He was able to identify where my challenges were. For me it was mostly with keeping my cool when faced with pressure, but realising I actually knew what to do. While I faced some challenges towards the end of the course, Prads helped give me confidence that I had everything I needed. Pleased to say I passed first time with 4 minors!

Excellent intensive course!

Pradeep was a great instructor. I was very nervous before this course and he helped me feel at ease with driving, quickly teaching me all the skills needed to pass my test. I passed first time after 6 lessons with him. Thanks Pradeep!

Great experience, worth every penny

I did an intensive course with Pradeep and it couldn't have gone better. He's very thorough but also patient and reassuring. I had my doubts about passing my test in such a short amount of time but I managed to pass first try! I couldn't recommend him enough.

fantastic experience

Pradeep is an excellent instructor. After taking a long break from lessons he restored my confidence immediately. The teaching style really suited me and he is great at adapting to your needs. Lessons were also very well thought out and there was great attention to detail, it felt very thorough. I went into the test confident and I am pleased to say I passed first time.

30 hour intensive with Pradeep

Pradeep perfectly set me up for my test, helping me pass first time with 2 minors, in the 30 hours we had we covered everything and had time for multiple mock tests. I couldn't recommend him enough.
