After you make a purchase, a staff member will email or call you to set up your first in-car driving lesson. Lessons cannot be scheduled online. Driving seemed to have a lot of complicated rules, but my instructor made everything super simple. He took all the anxiety and confusion out of driving and learning the road test. Not only that, he had a good eye for assessing my strengths and weaknesses and always had an effective way to exercise what I needed to work on.

I had an amazing experience with Bell Auto! Before I started with Bell I was very nervous/anxious in the car but as time went on Peter (my instructor), helped me build my confidence. Learning how to drive was easy thanks to the help of Peter. With Peter's help, by the end of my course I was calm in the car and able to pass my road test on the first try!

I had a great experience with Bell Auto Driving School. They care about their students. I had Bob as my instructor and he really made me feel comfortable driving and gave me confidence. He showed me tricks for parallel parking and I feel so much more confident on road now. I want to Thank Bob for having trust in me and for teaching me driving. He had a very positive energy. I highly recommend this school and Bob was amazing. Thank you!

We love Bell Auto School. Both of my girls passed their road tests with Bell Auto School! Bob is the best instructor. He was with us the whole way from her first lesson, to the road test & all the way to the result! My daughter felt very comfortable with Bob as her instructor. He taught many things that I didn't even know! Thank you Bob! Thank you Bell Auto School

My daughter had a terrific experience with Bell Auto Driving School. She had Ken, who was amazing! He was very knowledgeable and made her feel comfortable learning and confident going into the test. She said that she would not have passed on her 1st try if not for him, because he taught her so much that I guess my husband and I didn't teach her. I would highly recommend Bell Auto School.

I received 20 driving lessons from here, and it was an excellent learning experience. Passed my test on the first try and I never felt uncomfortable with driving because they always made sure I was prepared. The lessons were really informative and the instructors were patient and helpful. You'll get what you pay for and more.

Learning to drive in your 30s is quite the daunting task, and I am so grateful Bell Auto placed me with Bob. He is so kind and patient, and really takes the time to explain everything thoroughly. Bob is the epitome of professional - he was always on time/early for our lessons, answered any and all questions that I had, and overall made the experience so positive with his words of encouragement and tips for becoming a successful driver. I am going to miss our weekly lessons now that I've passed my road test. Thank you for everything, Bob!

I have had such a great experience with Bell Auto! I can't say enough good things. They are professional, thorough, and really care about their students. I had Mike as my instructor for 10 private lessons and he was kind, detail oriented, and overall such an amazing instructor. Peter took me to my exam and he was so kind and such an excellent instructor!

Thanks to Mike, Peter, and Bell Auto I was able to pass my exam on the first try with flying colors. I not only was able to pass my exam, but feel confident on the road. I highly recommend Bell Auto to everyone!

Such an amazing experience with Bob from Bell Auto School! Bob was extremely helpful when it came to getting tips on how to stay attentive while driving, and was always encouraging. As an instructor he would use our 45 minute lesson in the car efficiently; letting me start with skills I was comfortable with before proceeding to practice some more challenging tasks. It was great working with him and Bell Auto school and our lessons has made me a wiser, more defensive driver.

My son passed his road test on his first try! Thank you Gordon and Bell Auto School for making this process so smooth, easy, and worthwhile! Gordon was flexible, professional, gave my son great pointers and feedback! My son was fully prepared and ready for his test! We couldn't be happier with our experience with Gordon, our instructor and Bell Auto School! 5 stars from us!

I have beeen a Bell Auto driving instructor for about 3 months now. t's a wonderful opportunity to meet young people and train them in safe driving techniques. Many students get some anxiety about the road test. But if you prepare well, then it's just a matter of you just doing what you have been doing all along and you will be good to go. Everybody gets nervous before a test -that's normal. but if you have the ability to control the car and and observe the guidelines pointed out by the instructor you will be successful.

Most important is to practice on your own not just with the auto instructor. The more time you spend on the road behind the wheel experiencing different situations will give you the confidence to handle any situation. Bell auto school trains their drivers to really focus in on the specifics. Of making left and right turns, parallel parking, broken U-turns. using proper signaling and head movement to make sure you compky with standards set by NY State.

Adam Nazimowitz is the driving instructor for our kids, Rachel and Jared at Bell Auto Driving School. He was extremely patient, professional and thorough with them. He not only teaches skills for the road test, but for actual driving conditions. Adam has excellent communications skills and is definitely someone we can count on. With his guidance, he taught Rachel and Jared the skills to become safe drivers. We highly recommend him.

I had the pleasure to have Bob as my instructor for only 5 lessons. Each lesson we drove different routes which I greatly appreciated because it added to the reality of driving in the real world once I am out on my own. He also helped me to build confidence for my Road Test, which I passed on the first try! Bell Auto School is also very accomodating and communicative. They made my experience very easy and seamless. I would highly recommend Bell and Bob.

A few weeks ago I passed my road test, even though I was nervous. All thanks to my instructor Bob from Bell Auto! He was a very professional and easy going person and I had a good time practicing driving. I took 10 classes and it was enough for me to feel confident on the road. Highly recommend this school

I am so fortunate to have Michael L as my driving instructor. He is a little strict but there's so much sense in that strictness: he wanted me to absorb his teachings because he simply wanted me to pass the road test. He even gave me extra minutes most especially before the road test. and I passed it! His extreme patience, guidance and extra kindness made it possible.

Not only did I learn good driving skills from him, but i got some life skills from him too as he was a good teacher before he became a driving instructor. Once again Mike. thank you, thank you so much! More power to Bell Auto School!

Since our local High School was only offering virtual classes for Driver's Ed & I would have had to teach my daughter how to drive, I contacted Bell Auto for driving lessons. Registration was easy, everyone was really helpful & very nice, and Bob, the driving instructor was awesome! I received reminder emails for the lessons, was able to schedule her road test and she was able to take the 5 hour class which made the process so easy. With all that said, she passed her Road Test on the 1st try! Thanks Bell Auto & especially Bob for the great service!

Ask for Lisa to be your instructor! She is the most patient, calm, encouraging person you'll meet! I had no experience in driving and a huge fear for it but she made me feel confident while driving and she was patient with all my mistakes! Needless to say 10 lessons with her and I passed my test and I enjoy driving so much! Thank you Bell Auto School and million thanks to Lisa!

I wouldn't recommend this place if you want to learn how to drive. They teach you absolutely nothing. I wasted my money.
