5Day Reviews 

James from Peterborough, I’d recommend him as an instructor teaches in a really good way and makes everything easy to understand.

I learned to drive with Alan from 5day & I couldn’t recommend him more if I tried. Alan is an amazing instructor, I learned so much & Alan pushed me more & more each time & I passed my test on the 1st go. Alan was very supportive, always responded to any enquiries & never let me down. I couldn’t have done it without him! He’s amazing at what he does.

I'm giving a 5 star review for my instructor Stephanie, in St Helens. I wasn't test ready after my 5day course and did not have anyone to drive with between lessons so I needed another intensive course which 5day helped me sort with a price reduction quickly and easily. The theory classes were helpful and everything that was on the theory test was covered. My initial intense course was in April and the 2nd intense course was booked for 2 weeks later. My test was booked for August but I was able to get a cancellation. I continued to have weekly lessons with Stephanie, recommended in the information from 5Day, which were easy to organise and Stephanie was very patient with me as I was a very nervous learner. I passed my test first time today and I couldn't have done it without her support and understanding.

complete waste of time, they change my instructor twice, changed the car on the exam day. I learn for a theory in 2 days with them, but you can do it o n your own at home with the app, but driving lessons and exam complete misunderstood, re- doing my exam as well was problematic. I resign, drive with my friend for a couple of hours and passed. NOT RECOMENDED - it was 2017

Excellent teaching from James Chambers. I’ve had a lot of fun this week and I’ve also learnt a lot. Passed my theory test first time. Brilliant course. Tiring but worth it if you put the effort in. 😊

Brilliant, my very instructor Manuel was on top of everything so that I went into my test confident and passed first time. Manuel knows all of the ins and outs of the driving test and is a super friendly guy on top of that.

I did the 5Day intensive driving course and had David as my instructor. I started the week with absolutely no driving experience, so I was quite nervous, but David was brilliant from day one. He was incredibly patient, explained everything really clearly, and made me feel relaxed and confident behind the wheel. I was amazed by how much I learned in just five days, and by the end of the course I felt like I had all the skills I needed to keep progressing. I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better instructor and would highly recommend both David and the 5Day course to anyone thinking about learning to drive.

I recently completed a week-long intensive driving course with David via 5 Days, and I couldn't have asked for a better instructor. From day one, he was patient, professional, and genuinely passionate about teaching. His calm approach and clear explanations gave me the confidence to improve with every lesson.

David really cares about his students and wants them to succeed. He takes the time to make sure you understand everything, encourages you throughout the process, and creates a relaxed learning environment that helps build confidence behind the wheel.

I would highly recommend David to anyone looking to learn to drive, whether you're a complete beginner or looking to build your confidence. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to my family and friends. Thank you David you’re a legend 🙂

1 Star – Would give zero if I could
An absolute scam. I booked this for my son on the understanding that if he didn’t pass the first practical assessment, he would be able to retake it. He completed the course in April 2024, and took the practical test in August 2024. We have already paid for a retest, but still have not been given a date. Last contacted February 2026 just said it will come when it comes awful

i did my crash course through 5day and thanks to the incredible work from alan at the manchester branch i was able to pass first time with only three minors! he was so helpful and i absolutely could not have done it without him

Amazing! I had James from Peterborough and he taught me so much and helped me so much with my driving, not only giving me the skills but the confidence to do it aswell. Would highly recommend him to anyone.

Really overpriced for literally 20 hrs of driving lessons I certainly wouldn’t recommend anyone do this course I really regret it I would book lessons with an instructor which will give you much more driving time and value for money

My experience was very good with James really easy to talk to and was no pressure from him at all I really recommend him to everyone just overall explained where your going wrong but never but never made me feel bad about it I was very confident with him sat next to me

Shabana (instructor)
Made learning easy and comfortable
Passed 1st time very good instructor by farr

I couldnt thank James from Peterborough enough! I had never driven before and he kept me calm, within the week he taught me so much with knowing my limits and not overwhelming me by pushing me to quickly.
He was very patient and not patronising at all when I made a silly mistake, he would just talk to me calmly whilst reassuring me.
I didn’t expect to be test ready due to never driving before, but I am
A lot further on than what I would have been doing weekly lessons and I now have the confidence to continue with my lessons knowing it won’t be much longer till I will be ready,
Thank you James!

I had a great experience with my instructor Shabana as she was very patient with me and a great teacher, I don’t think I could’ve passed my test without her!

Passed first time after being taught by James from Peterborough. Great tutor and a great person. Calm and reassuring and a great laugh to help make you comfortable. He was patient, answered all my questions and went back over things as many times as I felt I needed without a problem!

Really great course! I had some previous lessons but hadn’t driven for 6 months. when I started my course in Norwich with Leon I learnt a lot more in a week then I had with normal driving lessons. I highly recommend 5Day to anyone who is leaning to drive!

I had John from the Chelmsford 5day course , he was the best at teaching me and helping me to pass my driving test, he was calm and spoke clearly to me making it easy for me to understand :)

I’ve passed my test and my driving instructor Joe was brilliant, he helped me grasp a better understanding of the road during our intensive course and gave me great tips on areas where I wasn’t as confident on ie spiral roundabouts and which lane to be in
