This man did not teach them what they needed to know. And what he did teach, he taught incorrectly. We have spent thousands of dollars at this school for both kids and now I am trying to find a new school where they will get a driving instructor who will actually teach them what they need to know. Maybe we would have had a different experience if we got a different instructor, but for the amount of money you spend, it should not be left up to chance. I would not recommend this school, nor would I ever use it again. Your money will be better spent elsewhere.

There was absolutely no useful content, only the stereotypical shock videos plus whatever tangents the instructor felt like going on. Following are my experiences of the various road lesson instructors: Instructor #1: Taught incorrect and dangerous information (outdated steering wheel positioning and handling) Instructor #2: Was verbally abusive, berating students until they broke down crying (which he ignored) Instructor #3: Actually taught some useful driving skills, but shared highly sensitive personal information about his past students, and was xenophobic Instructor #5: Was nice enough, but not a very good teacher Instructor #6: Also berated students, artived late to lessons tl;dr: This place is great if you want to traumatize potential drivers, but I wouldn't recommend it for anything else. If I could give zero stars, I would.

I highly recommend you not to waste your money here go somewhere else. And also you should probably have your child take the driving class at their high school.

I would NEVER let my child get into a car with him as the owner/instructor and based on his presentation wouldn't allow my kid to get in a car with any of the instructors! There is a reason why this place is not very expensive compared to most. Buyer beware!

Their staffs changed my load test date again and again, even there was only THREE days left, and then schedule my the busiest day to take test. I had told them I was not OK on Monday, but they just didn't care. More terrible thing was I couldn't change the schedule, couldn't refund. If you said you were not prepared, they would schedule one more driving practice, and then disappeared at that day. Even you called to the driving school no one would answer. In other words, they only care about how to make you take test as soon as possible and then earn money from next victim, but not care about your personal schedule and whether you are prepared, because you have signed you can't refund. They never send emails and messages although you ask, so you have no evidence about their any words. So if you have plenty of free time to waste on clarifying which day is you road test day, or you want to taste the experience which argues with them why they just say "okay" but not follow their promise, so be it. Good luck. But for me, I hope someone could told me these things before I paid for them, so that I would not get a fail and waste my money and mood.

So, here's a place not a lot of people talk about. Of course, I have a feeling that's probably…read morebecause driving schools are one of those places no one Yelps about unless their experience was somehow incredibly negative. As we've recently enrolled our son into driver's ed, I felt it was high time someone gave an honest opinion about this place. Well, after you fork over the initial $800+ for this 2 month-long course, they immediately require the parents (yeah...BOTH parents, if applicable) to attend what they call a "parent's class". This is normally scheduled right before the student's first class. What this consists of is the head teacher dude pretty much explaining what the students will be learning; along with some handy tips on how not to freak out your own child trying to learn the ways of the road. Basically, "don't scream at your teen behind the wheel" type stuff. Anyways, this is a one-time meeting that lasts about an hour and a half. This felt a bit longer than necessary, but whatevs. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Alright. One thing I need to get out of the way right now - I HATE their parking lot. Like, I really, REALLY hate the way this parking situation is. Let me explain. As you can already tell, this place is located smack dab in the midst of downtown Nashua; one of the most pretentious and pathetic attempts at emulating the brimming and overpriced sprawling metropolis known only as Boston that I've ever seen. This means inexorably being left with the grueling choices of either paying for parking (yuck!), shamelessly squatting in the reserved residential parking across the street, OR...driving just past the school's entrance to take two right turns and utilize the undersized parking lot located in the back of the building. It's worth mentioning this parking lot is shared, ostensibly containing approximately 6 wasted reserved spaces for...something. Oh, and be sure to take your sweet ass time maneuvering throughout this parking lot so as not to accidentally nick someone's car door. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if this design is intentionally set up to "test" the students. As for the course itself, it's pretty routine, really. My son seems to have acquired the basic skills and knowledge needed to pass the state test. Which, judging from the majority of drivers around here, doesn't seem like it'd be all that difficult to pass with flying colors anyway. Now then...there are a couple other things I find quite vexing about this course. Recording driving hours: In the beginning, they let you know there's an app which allows the parent to record their teen's driving hours automatically whenever you accompany them for a driving session. Just one problem though - you can't actually submit these hours at the end of the course as proof of time driven. Nope. Instead, they STILL make you painstakingly hand jam the hours onto a physical paper copy of the driving sheet. May I ask...WHY?! What's the point of having an app that does this automatically when we can't even use it as proof of hours driven? Whoever drafted this course needs to hop in a time machine and travel forward in time to the 21st century PRONTO! Parking: I know I touched on this a bit already. But I also want to mention the incredibly tiny parking spaces, accompanied with a one-way exit (which almost everyone violates by entering into the ostensible DO NOT ENTER sign) near the street entrance. ALSO, also....the paths going around the parking lot aren't really one-way. So, when you pull around the back, you may find yourself nose-to-nose with a car coming the opposite direction as you're about to turn in like I did at least once. This parking situation is stupid, avoidable, and fixable. Just force everyone to enter and exit the same way with signs like the rest of the country streets do. It's easy! The only other caveat to be aware of is the fact that driving and observation hours are almost totally impromptu, apparently. Which means everything is subject to change, based on no-shows and whatnot. They will accommodate weekend driving though, so....that's definitely a win. But overall, this place isn't nearly as bad as the other two previous reviewers suggested. Then again, how many folks actually take the time to adequately review a driving school on Yelp? Really. I'm gonna remain fair and slightly impartial by giving Hampshire Driving School 3 adequate parking lots with proper exit and entrance signs out of 5.

An absolutely horrible program run by unprofessional hacks. I am calling the state to find out the licensing requirements and finding any method possible to warn people of this con artist. Over books the class. Not enough instructors. No show for classes. No show for driving hours.

Classes are not communicated until sometimes after 11pm the Sunday before, most of the time this weekly schedule is either wrong or she will change or cancel last minute. Our original class was set to start in January and was postponed until March. My daughter did not complete her classes and road lessons until the first week of June, this was with constant pressure from the parents. The state mandated parent meeting was scheduled TWICE and Mrs.Eckles was a NO SHOW both times. There was never a parent meeting, yet twice parents made time to join a scheduled Zoom for the instructor to not show. There is zero communication response. She does not return calls, texts or emails, yet blames the kids for being disorganized. There is also an issue of safety. At the completion of a road lesson, my 16 year old daughter was left in a parking lot in Nashua, ALONE, 20 min before the lesson was scheduled to end. She starts every class and lesson late and finishes early! My daughters road lessons consisted of driving around, my daughter had to start requesting specific skills to practice during lessons because otherwise she would just drive from Bedford to Nashua without working on any specific skills! I could continue.... RUN FAR AWAY FROM THIS DRIVING SCHOOL!
