I had Ken and he was honestly one of the funniest person I know! we had a lot of banter as well as driving. Had someone else before hand and they said I would need lots more hours, did 3 and a half hours with Ken and passed first time. made me feel really confident, like I was a really good driver. if you need someone who can be chilled and easy to get on with, kens ya guy!

So I booked a weeks intensive course and met a bloke called Latch, probably one of the nicest and funniest blokes I’ve ever met. I had never driven before in my life and passed first time because of my driving instructor. I highly recommend this guy if your looking to pass first time, with a really nice bloke teaching you at the same time. Cheers Latch mate

Latch was an incredible driving instructor! As a nervous driver, he made me feel really relaxed and confident and so to complete a weeks intensive course and come out with a 1st time pass with one minor was such an amazing feeling! I would highly recommend him since he is such a legend and will get you through with no troubles :)

I was a terrible driver. Really, really bad. (Lewis Hamilton mentality, Scooby Doo capabilities.) Before starting these lessons, I had 96 hours & failed two tests. After 14 hours with Latch (serious banter & heavy piss taking along the way) I passed. Still no idea how. The man is a driving God. Employing him full time to be my chauffeur because never being allowed on the road without him. All hail Latch. Pimpin' and Crimpin'

I passed my test first time yesterday. After having not quite positive experience with BSM I decided to switch to Bumpers and it proved to be very good decision. I have purchased the 10 hours package and my driving instructor was Latch. You could tell immediately that he knew his job very well. Latch was able to pick up all the mistakes I was making (and that I haven't even realised I was making as they had never been picked up by BSM instructor), was very patient with me and helped me to improve enough to pass the test. It was also very handy I was able to have lessons during the weekends as I work full-time, so don't have much spare time during the week. So overall would definitely recommend Bumpers to anyone!

I was so happy to pass first time with the help of latch if I hadn’t of had him as an instructor I don’t think I could have done it! He helped me so much in just the few lessons we had, he never bailed and cancelled our lessons and he always made sure we covered the things I wanted extra help with! Appreciate his help so much!

Really impressed with the experience from start to finish. Communication was great throughout and I got started in a matter of weeks. Judy was amazing and loved my whole experience - passed this morning and I couldn’t be happier! I recommend bumpers highly.

Please pass on our thanks to Dan for getting Matt through his Driving test, he may not have been the easiest of students at times, but Dan certainly managed to make him feel at ease and achieve the required quality of tuition to get that Pass!

I passed my test today, first time. Ken my instructor gave me the confidence I needed by his constant assurance and constructive feedback on my driving. Ken made all maneuvers easy for me with his handy tips. I found Ken very professional and an excellent instructor.

I had Judith as my instructor (Judy's driving tuition). She is very calming, considerate and easy to get along with. Unlike alot of instructors, she doesn't feel the need to comment on everything and she puts alot more faith in her students than most. Having had 2 instructors before her she is the only instructor that made me feel like I was in control, and not being b aby sat. Really great, would 100% recommend. In my opinion she is a great teacher, and it proves it when I passed first time.

I had Mike as my instructor and he was seriously amazing! I have had a little driving experience before hand but not much at all. I done 16 hours in a week with him and he made sure I was happy and positive with everything before we moved on to the next thing. He really was amazing and I passed first time - I really wouldn't of been able to do it without him. I would recommend 110%! Thank you bumpers and especially thank you to Mike! :-)

Chris Lawes is a fantastic driving instructor and definitely the best I have ever driven with. He is highly professional, honest, very good with delivering feedback in a tactical way. He had instilled in me great methods and helped me understand situations I had previously found difficult. I am very happy with his teaching methods and would highly recommend Chris as first rate instructor!

I would recommend Bumpers as long as they got Judy Obee as an Instructor. She is amazing! Very calm and relaxing. Judy's intelligence in her teaching puts you at ease and gives you the much needed confidence. I am very grateful that Judy helped me pass first time.

All the hours I have done driving over the years was not too good as they just seem to want to get money off me as much as they could, IE they kept saying I wasn't ready for a test, but as soon as I came to Bumpers all they wanted is for me to pass my test. Latch was brilliant and I will be telling everyone I know who wants to pass to go to Bumpers and if u don't mind I'd like to put it on Facebook just to let everyone know how good Bumpers are. regards, Katie

Ken, my instructor was so positive, motivating and understanding. Even though I could drive (having done lessons before with a different instructor) I was lacking in confidence and self belief. Ken helped with that and was positive even when I made mistakes, he is calm and patient and happens to have a wicked sense of humour. I could not have done it without him. I would recommend go Bumpers to anyone. Thank you Ken.

Prior to finding Bumpers Driving School both me and my partner were feeling a bit deflated about our driving lessons in general and the experiences we have received from alternative driving school's in Hampshire. After moving to Southampton and finding glowing reviews from other Bumpers students online we decided to give them a go and all I can say is wow! what a truly perfect experience we received. I cannot recommend Ken (our Bumpers School driving instructor) enough! he was exactly what we hoped for in a driving instructor giving us regular updates along the way, working around our busy schedule and pickup location/test area, he was patient, extremely knowledgeable and explained things in such a clear and concise way that made them so easy to grasp and learn from. Both me and my partner took our test today 26/4/2016 and I'm pleased to say we both past thanks to Ken and the confidence he gave us. If your looking for any type of driving lessons within the areas covered by Bumpers then look no further, you won't just learn to drive and drive well but you'll enjoy doing it to :) Thanks again Ken, you were brill! E & J :)

Latch is THE best driving instructor you can have. He keeps you calm and makes jokes and is a fantastic teacher! He inherited me as a nervous wreck after having an awful experience with another driving instructor... (shaun.... do yourself a favour and do NOT go with him). Latch built my confidence up and I really enjoyed each lesson. He is calm and patient and knows how to keep you at ease! Really friendly and encouraging.
