Intensive Driving Courses London

London Driving Academy specialises in intensive and semi-intensive driving courses. We have developed a system that encourages learning and builds confidence very quickly. It is designed to fit around your lifestyle.

"It's not just about lots of lessons in a short space of time. It's about understanding every learner and adapting our unique learning sytem to fit your ability and personal schedule."

How to Book a Course

Every LDA driving course starts with a 1 and a half hour Startup Assessment Lesson. This allows you to experience LDA without any obligation to commit to a complete course. It also allows the instructor to assess your road sense, car control and learning ability (even if you've never driven before) and place you on the appropriate course and level of intensity (see below). At the end of your course you'll be given a mock test where you'll find out if you need any additional lessons or if you're ready for official test!

What Determines an Intensive or Semi Intensive Course?

Semi Intensive Courses – are growing more and more popular as you get to spread out your course over a period of 4 to 6 weeks. Which means most people can fit lessons around work and lifestlye committments and massively increases the chance of passing first time. Eliminating the frustration, time and cost of retakes. Which means happy students and proud LDA instructors!
