pupil testimonials
Here at Coopers Driving School, we like getting feedback from our students. It helps us maintain a high level of quality and service that is second to none.
Here are some of the comments our driving instructors have received.
Before starting lessons with Coopers Driving School, I thought I would never
pass my test. My previous instructor had entered me into tests far too quickly
and I failed both - the last so badly that I didn't drive a car again for five
years!
Nathan took me back to basics and restored my confidence in my driving
abilities. He had a really methodical approach to teaching and was very
flexible with booking, changing lessons and tests. Most of all I
appreciated his patience.
After just four months I passed my second test - without a single minor or major
fault - something that I would never have believed I was capable of before
starting to learn to drive with Nathan.
A huge thank-you to everyone at Coopers!

Just like to say thank you to Adham for getting me through my test with
ease. His ways of teaching are one of a
kind, and it was more like getting taught off a friend rather than an
instructor. I've heard some schools are
just out for the money, but Adham told me he could get me through my
test first time and as soon as possible, and in just under 8 weeks I did indeed pass first time.
Huge thanks and recognition for the way he taught me to drive, I doubt
there's a better instructor out there.
Thanks again Ad.

I would just like to say thank-you to Nathan Cooper who helped my through my driving test. When I first started learning to drive with Coopers my confidence had been knocked by a previous driving instructor. After already taking 3 previous tests, I was felt that I would never be able to pass. Nathan made me feel relaxed and chilled out on lessons and brought my confidence back up. I had around 10 lessons with Nath and he advised me that i should book my test.
When it came round to the test day I found myself feeling far more comfortable and at ease than previous tests, this helped me through the driving test and I passed first time with Nath and just 4 minors.
Thank-you!!

Since 1,978 I have been qualified to Home Office class One as an Advanced Driver
of Motor Cars. I am a retired Police Traffic Patrol Sergeant. Since 1985 I have been
an Advanced Driving Examiner.
I recently commenced teaching my sixteen year old daughter to drive, off the
road, of course. Ground and tracks available on which I could teach her were very
limited, and not particularly suitable.
I then had the good fortune to learn of Nathan Cooper's COOPERS DRIVING
SCHOOL. Nathan provides off-road driving tuition for young persons yet to
attain their seventeenth birthdays.
I booked a two-hour lesson for my daughter, and we duly met with Nathan
Cooper. What followed was a delight for my daughter and myself.
Nathan Cooper provided two hours of excellent tuition, including advice on study,
on the Theory Test, on the practical Driving Test, on Hazard Perception testing, as well
as superb practical driving tuition and practice. My daughter was driving for the most
part of the two hours, and even finished with well executed reversing manoeuvres.
In conclusion, I am, by my professional training and experience, highly critical of
driving performance, and of those associated with same. I have only the highest
regard for Nathan Cooper's professional expertise, and I thoroughly recommend his
services to anyone wishing to be taught to drive properly. It is especially well worth
considering getting the under-seventeens started in readiness for driving on the roads.
Thank you again.

Just like to say a MASSIVE thankyou to Coopers and especially Adham, i had a
very short period of time to learn but they found availability and suited my
time scale.
Adham really helped me pass, i was very nervous to begin and
lacked all confidence but he was quick to beat that out of me (in the nicest
possible way!). I've had a few instructors in the past but i felt the most
relaxed and capable with Adham which really helped me and he didnt get annoyed
when i got all stroppy!
My full recommendation!
Thankyou again!!
Sam Walker, Pershore, November 2009
Just a quick message to thank you for helping me pass my test in a very short amount of time, first time! Simon Kershaw was very understanding when I told him the time scale I had to work with and was fabulous at helping me get results in a short time. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Simon and Coopers to anyone.
Many thanks for all your help.
Kate, Wolverhampton, November 2009
Hi, just wanted to say thank you to Coopers Driving School for helping me past my practical test today! My instructor Vijay was the best and suported me 100% - Thanks!!
Charlie, Wolverhampton, September 2009
Before I started lessons with Adham Malik from Coopers, I was told I was a decent driver, I could not however pass the test no matter how decent I seemed. On my first lesson with Adham however, he helped me find my major faults and thanks to his enthusiastic yet methodical teaching style I was able to address them, and passed my test in just under two weeks.
I am really grateful to Adham for all the help he has given me.
Chris King, October 2009
I came to Coopers after learning with another instructor for about 4 months and
not making a lot of progress. I started lessons with Adam Barry, who
immediately picked up on my main problems and he rebuilt my confidence in
driving, as well as having a good laugh. After a few weeks it was just like
chatting with a friend - I never would have thought I'd actually look forward to
lessons. After 7 months I passed my test first time, and I am a safe and
confident driver. I'd like to thank Adam, who is a brilliant instructor and a
really nice guy, and Coopers. I'd recommend you to anyone.

Dear John,
I just wanted to say thank you once again for all the help you gave for my driving, you have been very patient with me - especially with the left reverse and parallel parking manoeuvers.
A very big thank you for everything.
Best wishes.
Leigh, passed with only 3 minors, June 2009
I thoroughly enjoyed my lessons with Nathan, you made learning to dive both educational, but also something I could look forward to. I wish you all the luck for the future and I'm certain that you will excel due to the excellence (if your teaching is anything to go by) of your driving school.
Thank-you for helping me pass first time and giving me the independence I've aquired through driving.
Wallis R, Worcester, June 2009
Before I changed instruction to Coopers, I considered myself a reasonably competant driver but I just could not get through my test, and learning to drive was quickly becoming expensive and also frustrating. Upon my first lesson with Nathan I began to see where I had been going wrong. I found his style of tuition concise and methodical, and I quickly regained my confidence in driving and started to really enjoy the lessons. I went on to pass my test with flying colours (2 minors!) with just a few extra hours of tuition.
Many thanks, from a full license holder (at last!). Karen C, Worcester, June 2009
Having failed my driving test a number of times, I had no
confidence and was in despair; I never thought I could ever pass. Fortunately I
changed my driving instructor to John Grayson of Coopers Driving School .
Immediately I felt at ease; the professionalism of John was excellent.
Due to his skill, patients and understanding, I passed my test
within a few weeks. I have no hesitation in recommending Coopers Driving School
to any new learner driver. Mrs Li Wimpey, Droitwich

I have been learning on and off for 2 years but had never managed to settle with
an instructor. I decided to go for an intenisve course with you, and you managed
to sort me out with Tess Angel who was absolutely amazing and looked after me
throughout the intensive lessons. I was a very nervous learner but her
personable, relaxing and friendly approach completely sorted me out and I was
soon feeling confident and positive in my own driving ability- something which
nobody else had managed bring out in me. Tess was brilliant and I'm hugely
thankful to her for everything that she helped me to achieve.
Just
before my test this weekend Tess had to go into hospital and so Adam (I think
his surname is Barry?) stepped in to look after me for my final lessons and
through to the test. Adam's attitude was so positive and easy going and he
immediately put me at ease. I actually began to enjoy my lesson under his expert
direction. I have no doubt that without his experienced tuition and relaxed but
skilled help I would have never passed my test. Even in the horrible moments
when I was sitting in the waiting room just before my test Adam was still making
me laugh and working hard to maintain within me the calm I needed to pass the
test. I am extremely grateful to him for stepping in at such short notice and
being such a fantastic teacher.
Adam and Tess honestly were incomparably the best instructors I have ever
had and they did their very best to look after me, accommodate my needs, develop
and encourage my skills and correct any difficulties I was having in a
positively constructive way. They are certainly responsible for getting me
through my test and making me the happy driver I now am. They really are both
clear assets to Coopers driving School and I have already begun recommending
them to my friends and family who are taking driving lessons with other
instructors.
Thanks once again Nathan to you and your marvellous team for all their
help, hard work and expert teaching
skills.

I would like to thank-you for helping me pass within just a few weeks. I was in a blind panic when i realised i had just 4 weeks to get my test, being part of the agreement of me starting my new job. I would definitly recommend you and learning intensively to friends and family. The job is going well and I'm enjoying having the freedom driving has brought, no more buses - ever! :) Steve Varney, March, 2009
After passing my test 17 years ago I felt that with the increase in traffic on the UK's roads, perceived aggressive behaviour from other drivers and my own requirements in "continuous self development" I was in need of spending some time with a highly competent driving instructor. Thing is I wanted an instructor who understood my needs as a businessman who wants to get around quickly yet safely. I found that instructor to be Nathan Cooper of Cooper Driving School who was referred
by a business colleague of mine.
Having spent many years working as a flying instructor I understood the need and importance of refresher training. With my increased general awarenesss from my flying experiences I felt that I handled my car to a high/excellent standard, planned for other road users and I thought it
would be difficult for a driving instructor to spot any of my bad habits.
I was somewhat amazed that Nathan spotted a serious driving error within 2 minutes of me driving my car, with him in the passenger seat. To say I was impressed was an understatement.
Nathan is a calm, patient instructor that has a lot of knowledge to pass onto other drivers OF ANY STANDARD, good or bad. His ability to see potential road hazards seconds before I did is a credit to his skill and experience.
I would not hesitate to recommend Nathan Cooper as a very professional driving instructor that can improve your driving skill.
Darren Moloney, All things Web, Bristol, March 2009
After worrying about the expense and stress of learning to drive, I finally got around to giving it a go and its been nothing like what I'd imagined. Whilst Ive heard many depressing stories from my friends, I've found the whole experience on the whole very straight forward. I felt i was trained to a higher standard than was required for the test (passed with 2 minors) and quite frankly after surviving some of the routes Nathan found me the test actually seemed relatively easy and I feel absolutely confident behind the wheel.
Thanks for everything! Josie Hart, Eveshaml, March 2009
I passed my driving test 9 years ago in Austria (which means driving on the other side) and haven’t driven ever since. My confidence was at an all time low and I felt ill when I even thought about getting behind a steering wheel. I had to start from scratch and the detailed explanations I got were so helpful. My instructor was always friendly and incredibly patient (I still don’t know how he managed…). I gradually was able to build my confidence and the useful tips and tricks I was taught made driving so much easier for me. Three months ago I thought I would never be able to drive and now I am looking for my own car. I am very grateful for that! Bernadette Hardtmen, St. Johns, February 2009
I was really scared the first time I got behing the wheel... With help
from Coopers, I've realised it's nothing to worry about and now I can't
wait for each lesson.
