CarCaptain client review – Linda

Six years ago I took driving lessons & two tests, both in Southampton, I failed both tests and then due to moving away no longer had the time or money to continue to learn. I moved to London seven months ago and felt for the first time that I was confident enough to take lessons again, my theory test was about to expire for the second time so I really had to get it done quickly.

As time was not on my side I decided to look into an intensive course, I called about 4 companies and found that Carcaptain were the friendliest. I felt very comfortable speaking with them, the whole process was very personal and I felt that they would not give up on me. I decided to go with Carcaptain and spoke with them regarding my requirements, I work full time so the course had to be scheduled around my time off, all of the lessons were scheduled perfectly.

I really enjoyed my lessons and felt that all of the time spent in the car was worthwhile – obviously some lessons were better than others but on the days that I felt I wasn’t driving well we took it easy and returned to the problem area the next day. We would then keep practising whatever I was having trouble with over and over until I had it spot on.

I think taking a course with Carcaptain was definitely the most efficient way of finally getting my licence, I put a huge amount of pressure on myself to pass which is good if you can handle it. I was having lessons everyday which may be difficult for some people but was brilliant for me as I didn’t forget the things I had done the day before. With weekly lessons I felt that I was starting again every week whereas with an intensive course I was practising constantly & everything stayed in my head. I would definitely recommend taking an intensive course with Carcaptain if you want to get your driving licence quickly without all of the hassle of weekly lessons.
