Any good private driving instructor to recommend?

[Lengendcf]

For me, I dun think there's good or bad instructors..

 

Some wannabe drivers are either can drive or cannot drive..

Always believe, can swim means can swim, dun blame the swimming trunks too big..

Thanks for the contact. :)

Er.. you didn't learn driving with an instructor, and just picked it up by yourself?

[Memory]

I believe practice makes perfect. However, still need an instructor to teach on fundamental first. An instructor who doesn't teach much is just as zero teaching, on the other hand, a learner who is not ready is just same as not ready on the road. Everything gotta depnd on oneself, and practice more, I believe it is always good to make mistakes and learn during lessons, at least there's an instructor guiding beside, rather then making a very big mistake during TP or on your own.

 

The very first time I took up lessons was through a pte instructor, but he very sim tia his car, being a new learner, he didn't explain or teach me much on biting point, didn't eleborate on why I can't do this, can't do that, and he likes to comment me chiu kenna ka, ka kenna chiu, so I gave up. Not coz I don't like the instructor or what, but somehow lost confidence in learning. I never thought of learning from then on.

 

One day my friends were talking about NY resolution and getting a licence was on our list, so I decided to sign up wif a school. but the two instructors allocated to me were not serious enough, e.g. my 1st 2 instructors one like to sing song while I drive very relack kind, the other will talk about other things. They just do their job. During the revision, they just shake their head. My first TP attempt no immediate failure, no hiccups, however 10pts for mounting kurb which i didnt, and another 10 pts for insufficient acceleration, wide turning. What to do, have to accept it, coz I was not ready for the licence, but I still 'Thanks' him for not passing me.

 

Finally, I took my time to refresh my memory and skill, and finally instructors starts offering tips on TP/driving, then all the well wishing, I think that's when they find their student is able to handle the vehicle and road conditions. I passed on the 2nd attempt, but I did take a long time.

my instructor, he's a good and patient guy. 1 time pass under his guidance. 6 points call him and tell him dennis recommended you.

[Dennisk]

i got my license from BBDC. 1st attempt. took me 4 months only.

only spent around $1,700++.

Really worth it.

If you really want it fast, school is the choice.

Just pump in money and do block booking.

one week 2 lessons will be enough.

 

1700++

 

mine private got for less than 600 bucks

mr daniel @ 98566210

 

with bukit batok DC

meet at bukit gombak

car used : honda city

rates : for manual about $36 (1 1/2hrs)

 

he has ties with BBDC, so he'll try to push the dates for TP as early as possible

Private students they say will wait longer for TP dates, but its nt a bad thing, it juz means u can practice more while waiting...

 

whether u gonna save money to get that license actually depends on how fast u learn.

so dun take the fees as a gauge. the most impt thing is getting the right teacher. applies to general too.

[Comfy]

[Strawberrypink]

i dunno

but still is at 36 for almost 2 yrs since i last check last month

Please take note of this driving instructor:

NG BENG CHOON, He has a percentage on the TP site of:

NG BENG CHOON 29 16 55.17%

 

Before i even enrolled into his lessons, we agreeded on 3-4times a week lesson as long as i advance booking. I even told him i am rushing for my lessons and license as i will be giving birth soon so i will need lessons 3-4times a week. Once i comfirmed going to his lesson, i used his IC to book TP Date.

 

Despite me trying to advance book but he kept delaying, and refuse to let me advance book. The maximum i could book from him is 2times a week and most of the time once a week.In the end i always end up with those "weird" timings like 7am. NEVER MIND.

 

When i ask him last week when would i be learning parking as my dad was concerned on why i havent learn parking yet when my Traffic Police Test date is on 1 November. He flew into a rage and say i cant drive properly yet want to learn parking. Say my dad so celver ask him to teach me. I dont need to teach him how to teach. All these words are quoted word to word from him.

 

I wanted more lessons from him and he just tell me come weekday morning/noon. I told him its very hard for me to come weekday morning/noon as i have kids and i need someone to help me take care kids while i go for lessons. Then he said i also very hard because i have so many students. Im doing a business. Then i told him how about advance booking+ payment so if i put his aeroplane he can keep the amount. He refused.

 

So, my husband called him up and verify about early booking for my driving lessons. He replied that he gave two lessons a week, how is it not enough. Then he told him that as my TP is approaching, he was very angry and said that he didnt like my husband attitude when i can vouch that he talked nicely to him. And this instructor shouted at him over the phone saying I didnt even ask you to book your TP date.

 

And he then said he didnt like his attitude of talking to him when he talked to him nicely. And my husband was very angry and told him you are the boss but im the customer, i have the right to ask. Then he said, you are the customer so what? And said again i dont like your attitude, i very dulan*all these he said in teochew* . He even provoke my husband and me to go down where he is to "talk". He said this in teochew

"You dont talk to me like this, i very dulan, you come down now and talk".

Too bad, mine private instructor (Auto) is from SSDC. Although, might be a bit beng n naggy, but still able to give u as many lessons as his time table allowed. He always have a dairy with him to keep track of his slot n appointments. He would not anyhow aireoplane(or change appointment), unless other of his student got urgent case, such as TP within the next few days. Which think abt it, what goes ard, comes ard, so when ur TP nearby, he will slot in more lessons for u. I remembered that time, when i chong my lesson, i book 3 lessons with him a week(max day i can free myself), so i think if u got even more time, u can book more slot with him.
