Passed first time with Tracey!

A huge thanks to Tracey for helping me pass first time! I was ready to postpone my test before I found The Best Intensive but after a ten-hour intensive, I went from nervous and nowhere near test-ready to a qualified driver. Tracey was calm and reassuring and made everything simple and achievable. My biggest issue was getting over test nerves and Tracey was massively helpful by being patient and friendly in all of our lessons - I highly recommend!

Richard potts is a cow boy

Richard potts is a cow boy, used his phone while I was driving, I passed with another company with no issues. These guys just take your money and don't care if you pass.

Passed my test, after 20hrs intensive which left confident for it

Great programme to sharpern up your driving skills and have you confident for your test. Just passed this Thursday after doing 20hrs intensive with Richard. He is a great guy, very calm and patient and gave me all the tips and areas that I needed to improve on, getting me ready to then go pass first time a few days later!

Amazing course and instructor

I’ve had Donnie for my driving course. He’s been very friendly, patient and informative and I’ve learnt a lot. I’d definitely recommend him and The Best Intensive for anyone looking for driving lessons.

30 Hour Course

I completed a 30 hour intensive with Donnie and cannot recommend him enough. He was extremely patient and kind, and has helped me progress so much in my driving. I went from not being able to drive to being test-ready by the end of the week. The intensive was definitely worth it and I am so grateful to Donnie for helping me become a safe and confident driver.

Thank you Lilin. You are the best driving instructor.

I have two bad experiences with driving instructors. It’s trauma and made me feel bad about myself. I couldn’t drive for 3 years. After the time passed. I think it’s time to try and i choose this company. I’m so happy to drive and learn again. Today I have passed with 0 faults. I must thank Lilin Mobbs. She is patient, understanding and highly skilled on the road. Never shouted or had aggressive reactions when I did something wrong. She will show me and correct me. She taught me lots, and her team is good too. If you are looking to pass a driving test. I recommended this company. You will get a pass like me. 👏 you will not regret it.

I have a really best 5 days intensive…

I have a really best 5 days intensive lessons with Colin. He worked so hard to push me from the first day until the end of the course. I wasn't have any driving experience at all from the start but end of the course I can drive around the town, ring round around Norwich for about 1.5 hours comfortably and safely. He is knowledgeable and experienced instructors. The cost for the course is reasonable.

A great introduction to driving

A great introduction to driving as someone who has never been behind the wheel before. Donnie has been great, patient and clear with instructions. Instilling confidence in me and my capabilities.
