Gary Bates was recommended to me by a friend. I found him to have a lot of patience and he taught in a highly professional manner. He is friendly and calming and managed to get me through to my test which I passed first time within 7 months. I would have no hesitation in recommending him.

I like just like to take this opportunity to thank Ken for all his hard work and effort into helping me pass my driving test. After not having much success previously with another driving school, Ken got in contact with me and pointed me in the right direction. I would recommend him to anyone. He is very patient and such a great instructor. He believed in me more than I did myself, which gave me great confidence. Ken let me learn how I thought would suit me best which I felt helped a lot! He always calmed my nerves and we had a good laugh. Thank you so much Ken.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank my instructor Paul Arnold for all his efforts and expert advice. Paul's patience and approachable nature calmed any anxiety and nerves that i had before learning to drive and made it very easy for me to relax and feel safe.
Thanks to Paul i passed first time and feel confident in the skills you taught me. I very highly recommend bumpers, I could not have asked for a better driving instuctor then Paul Arnold.

Tracey Buxton on 11/22/2011

Through bumpers I was put in contact with Gary Bates, he was patient and professional, and his lessons were developed around what yI needed to work on. I would recomend him to anyone looking to learn how to drive. He managed to do the impossible and keep my nerves under controll.

Linda, Eastleigh

Hi My name is Deepak and I have been taking classes with one of your Driving instructor Mr. Lee Richordson. Mr. Lee worked very hard with me and trained me very well. I never drove before in my life, but with the help of his guidence and some valuable tips I passed my Exam in a very first attempt which is really very incredible to me. I was really luck that I chose Bumper school where such a good instructor Lee works.
Thanks to him and thanks to Bumper Driving School.

Testimonials

Hi there

I used Bumpers recently and passed first time! My whole experience with Bumpers was excellent from start to finish. I put that down to Ken who was my instructor. I found him to be patient and professional with a great tutoring style. Ken was very supportive and gave me real confidence in my ability whilst out driving. I would not hesitate to recommend Bumpers if you want to learn to drive. Thanks again Ken!

Lee Thompson, Hedge End. 9th June 2011

I was put in contact with Gary Bates by Bumpers and I'm really glad they did. He was professional, calm and patient. He really helped me keep my nerves at bay!! I would thoroughly recommend Gary to new drivers or to those who have previously failed like myself.

Gemma Miller on 11/05/2011

Im 28 and had previously sat driving tests 11 years ago to no avail as didn't have enough self confidence to believe i could actually pass my test. Graeme is a brilliant instructor he was patient and really has passion for not only teaching you to drive to get you through your test, but teaching you to be a safe considerate driver for the future.

Samantha Harris on 11/04/2011

I booked a course of 30 lessons for my son over a two week period, ending in the test. He had had two lessons before with two different instructors and had not got on with them. He loved his lessons with Ken, who made him feel at ease and really boosted his confidence. When Ken bought him home from his test I was over the moon that he had passed 1st time. My daughter is now planning to take her test and I will definately get Ken to instruct her.

Jane Walters. Southampton,Nov 2011

I would like to thank instructor Liz Lendon, who made my daughter feel at ease and really boosted her confidence during her 10 hour intensive driving course. She was very patient, thorough and supportive throughout. My daughter passed her test at the end of the course.

Rachel Appleby on 11/13/2011

I recently passed my driving test having taken lessons with Ken at Bumpers. I was very nervous learner, however under the excellent and supportive guidance I passed my test in under 3 months. I found it very difficult to find a great driving instructor so will defiantly be recommending Ken to family and friends. Thank you!

Testimonials

My experience with Bumpers so far has been superb, my instructor is always on time and the lessons are always structured so that I am constantly learning new skills whilst building on areas that need work. I will highly recommend you.

Simon Brook on 03/24/2010

I've just finished a course with Bumpers in Southampton, about forty hours spread across two months, and passed the test yesterday on first attempt. I could not have asked for a better instructor than Graham: he understood exactly how best to teach me, when to push me further, how to keep me motivated and keen throughout, and was patient even when I made the silliest of mistakes. All that made the learning very enjoyable!

Lesley, Southampton, October 2011

Hi Bumpers!

My Driving Instructor was Ken and I took my test yesterday (14/12/09) and PASSED first time!!

Id like to say thank you to Ken for being so patient with me! you were a Fab teacher!

Im 24 and it has taken me a long time to build up the courage to do Driving lessons as I was always pretty nervous about learning! I Decided to do a 20 Hour Intense Course. Ken made me believe I COULD drive and that it just takes determination!

Ken is a credit to your company and I would recommend him and Bumpers to anyone learning to drive.

Thanks again!

Lucy Comiskey, Southampton

Learning to drive with Liz was a relaxing experience as she was very professional on the way she taught me to drive; she was very friendly and approachable which gave me the confidence that I needed to pass first time.

I actually enjoyed learning to drive I think this was because I managed to drive all across the Southampton area we went to many different areas such as Lyndhurst, Fair Oak, City Centre and Eastleigh driving in these different environments helped me learn many different road systems and prepared me for the road once I passed.

The lessons were also very flexible and she would schedule lessons around my college rota and pick me up from college.

Mike, Eastleigh

Hey,

Just wanted to say thanks again for teaching me to drive and helping me to drive.

Your a hero.

Thanks

Laura Goble, Winchester

The instructor was always punctual and had a pleasant and friendly personality which made learning to drive a much more pleasant experience than was anticipated.

I quite looked forward to my lessons although at first I felt a little anxious.

I would recommend Bumpers to anyone!

Jean Mellor on 03/24/2010

I wanted to thank you so much for being such a wonderful and patient driving instructor. You have been an excellent teacher and I dont think there could have been anyone better to get me through my test. Thank You!

Eleanor, Hampshire

Hi, I just wanted to say a huge thank you to Mike Matthews who only after a few lessons helped my son, Sam, pass his test today.

Sam had been recommended to another driving instructor by all his friends, he had two lessons with him and I also took him out a lot but then I was able to use the Bumpers Voucher through the Groupon discount site and Sam then had lessons with Mike - who was brilliant.

Sam loved his attitude, he was extremely helpful and the information he gave Sam in each lesson really, really helped. Our eldest son had 17 lessons with the AA and we were really disappointed with the lack of progress in each lesson whereas with Mike it was fantastic - very constructive, efficient and Sam really enjoyed his time. So thank you Mike and thank you Bumpers - great service we'll certainly recommend you.

Kind regards, Carolyn Neale
