 4.7 out of 5 | I was lucky enough to be taught by Pete Brason: a legend and pleasure to meet. Always up for banter, he puts you at ease; patient and never harsh: however daft the mistakes you make or questions you ask.Kings Lynn itself is great for those, like me, who are intimidated by learning in London, but it has all the features of a big city so you will still get excellent driving experience. Intensive driving really worked for me: you get to know the instructor, and they get to know you and your exact driving capabilities and learning needs.Finally, the initial booking process was slick and Academy welcome back those who have to re-take the test and it was here the customer service far surpassed expectations: very efficient at getting lessons and tests booked in, despite having to coordinate other students and instructors, and when I had personal commitments he would quickly come back with alternative dates. Great if you are worried about a Theory Test certificate due to expire. I was lucky enough to be taught by Pete Brason: a legend and pleasure to meet. Always up for banter,...

 4.7 out of 5 | I was very worried when I booked the course, not because of this company as booking was easy, but after I had booked I then heard that these courses are not very good!
As soon as I met my instructor it was a different story, I was meet exactly as arranged and was immediately put at ease. We went off to a very quiet area where I was allowed to get used to the car (it was perfect for learning to drive) then I was corrected on the mistakes I was making. With my previous instructor this was destructive but with this company it was always constructive and my confidence just grew and grew!
If I had failed I would still have recommended this company but I passed with ease and cannot understand why I had heard that intensive courses are not very good, I can only assume that they did not go to this company.
My thanks to all connected with Academy and will be sending my friends there very soon. I was very worried when I booked the course, not because of this company as booking was easy, but after...  Ian Woodhouse - 10 December 2009 |
