Intensive & Semi-Intensive Driving Courses on the Isle of Wight


Learning to drive doesn’t have to take months. At Humphreys Driving School, we offer intensive driving courses and semi-intensive driving courses across the Isle of Wight in both manual and automatic cars. Whether you want to pass your test quickly or prefer a slightly steadier pace, highly qualified instructor Les Humphrey will help you gain the skills and confidence you need to succeed.


What is an Intensive Driving Course?

An intensive driving course condenses weeks of lessons into just a few days. This means you’ll spend longer behind the wheel each day, learning all the skills you need in a shorter time frame. It’s perfect if you:

  • Need to pass quickly for work, study, or personal reasons
  • Can commit to daily lessons over a set period
  • Learn best with regular, focused driving practice

At Humphrey’s Driving Lessons, our intensive courses are available in manual and automatic cars across the Isle of Wight, tailored to your pace and ability.


What is a Semi-Intensive Driving Course?

semi-intensive driving course spreads the same training out over a slightly longer period. You’ll still learn quickly, but with more flexibility between lessons. This option is ideal if you:

  • Want to progress faster than weekly lessons, but not all at once
  • Prefer time to reflect and practice between sessions
  • Have a busy schedule and need a more flexible approach

Semi-intensive courses are also available in manual and automatic cars with Les Humphrey as your guide.
