Re: Vernon Goh
Car plate: SNB244L
Orange car.......

Avoid this guy unless you want to enjoy follow:
1. wrong instruction: asked to turn the wheel while stationary (parallel parking manoeuvre)
2. no instruction: s curve say just go by feeling. okay i use my feeling. but then i hire you for what?
3. refuse to book circuits; circuits are the main challenge and require most practice. but it doesn't earn him money. so he won't book for you and very very grudgingly so, at most 1 or 2.
4. rude. suka suka won't reply your message. unless his student cancel, then last min ask you want lesson?
So for him it's all about making a quick buck.
Can get in touch with him if you want to fund his shake leg do nothing leech young people lifestyle.
Should have searched this forum before hand. Would have avoided him if saw the posts below.

Any one heard of Vernon Goh , he teaches Auto , how is his lesson?
His lesson cost quite high , 33$/hourly 8am to 5pm , then 36$/hourly for other time...

Also, any good Private Auto Instructors , for BBDC , West side based.

is this web any good, looks attractive , but donno good or not.
privatedrivinginstructorsdotcom

Today I was supposed to have my first lesson with this instructor call VERNON GOH YEW SIONG at 2.30pm. At 2.30pm, he didnt pick up my call and ignore my sms or whatsapp messages. I went to search for his car at the parking lot and saw it being drove off with another student. His rates are already higher than my previous instructor. ( BTW My previous instructor is really good just that he has very packed schedule which I cannot commit as I have just started working and thus only able to learn during the weekends) I wouldnt have been so pissed at VERNON GOH YEW SIONG if he had at least answer my call and reshedule it for me. WASTED MY TIME AND MONEY!

If y’all are interested in 3A CDC, PM me for contact.

No pickups thou, because uncle believes it’s a waste of time. Unless u take his last slot for the day or the slot before lunch or something along this line, he will drop u at the MRT station.

As long as you display traits of a willing learner, ask questions, he will definitely answer you. Just don’t expect him to be very nice and not fierce if you do stupid things.

He teaches u to pass hahaha!
And he teaches the school teachers last time so he knows all the points to look out for~
I’m about 8 lessons in and going for circuit practice already. Had 1 parking lesson and I can park better than school students while at the circuit lol.

Definitely recommend 9.5/10
0.5 is because I have to pay haha!
Hi, I would like to have the contact no, thank you!
I wanted to PM you but I dont have the option to select ( I think I din post enough to meet the requirement)

For those who wanna learn 3A in the north, am recommending my driving instructor, Liew Yew Seng.

3A, Honda City, Pick up at Admiralty MRT. Tagged to SSDC.

Passed on my first attempt with Mr Liew. Took about 23 lessons (10 circuit, 13 road). Mr Liew is patient and soft spoken. Sometimes I find him a bit too soft and have to ask him to repeat and he will do so without black face or annoyance. He's not the chatty type which I like, so I can also focus on my driving. He's also not the sarcastic and chiding type. Downside is he speaks only Mandarin so you need to be fluent to understand his instructions.

He gives good tips on driving on the road and circuit. He'll also point out my appropriate sighting points and will change his driving instructions based on my own learning trajectory. Eg, I keep forgetting parallel parking steps especially when exiting the lot, so he simplified my steps for me. Won't die die must follow his way. He's also very accommodating if I want to get out of the vehicle to visualise my distances/positioning be it on the road or in circuit. He'll point out my mistakes as I go and will answer any questions I have about my progress.

I never have problems booking 2-3 lessons a week. He'll also give priority to those taking TP to go for more intensive lessons towards the end.

Feel free to PM if anyone needs his contact.
Hi bro, able to PM me his contact number? I'm not able to PM you D:

Looking for Class 3A PDI for my son. He learned a few practical lessons at BBDC but the slots are so difficult to get. Next available is March 2024! So I would like to change him to take private lessons instead. Any instructor to recommend? Please PM me. Thank you in advance.

Posting review for Mr Frankie Yue.

3A, Toyota Axio
Pickup at Ubi CDC (Can arrange for Tai Seng / Ubi MRT pick up)

Chose him mainly because of the review I saw while trawling through the many pages in this thread, and that he also has quite a high pass rate / student numbers as well.

Can confirm that he is indeed a top notch instructor. Took approximately ~10 lessons from him (did have some prior driving lessons with school) and passed TP on the first try some time back.

He is patient, and will point out mistakes every single time you make them. Gives very good tips for driving in circuit and on the road, can fully recommend him. Speaks good English, but does not engage much in small talk. I'm by nature not a chatty person, so this suited me really well. Does not scold you / chide you even if you don't do well, but instead he will remind or nag you.

He is professional as well, and is always there on time. Does not take frequent toilet breaks while driving as well. Even if he does need to answer nature's call, he'll do it quickly.

Only downside is that he appears to have a lot of students, and therefore scheduling can be a bit difficult especially for working adults. (Was running 1 lesson at week for some time).

Feel free to PM me should you want his contact, can 100
can i have his contact?

Actually these days don't need to ask around for recommendation or whatsoever la

The TP site has the full list of registered private instructors, their contact details AND their first time passing rate for the last year:

https://www.police.gov.sg/Advisorie...s/Passing-Rates-of-Theory-and-Practical-Tests

Just pick the closest driving center nearest to you, then filter down the list for the highest passing rate with a good number of testers and go for that.
Won't go wrong with choosing by passing rate.

Some of these word of mouth "recommendations" take them with a pinch of salt, I see some of those names in the thread can't even find their names on the registered list sia.
Some can find the name but no testers in the last year

Hi, just wanna check, how much enrollment fee do u guys pay for private instructor?

I was charged 240 for enrollment fee. I contact the instructor personally and not via private sch. Is that a major red flag?
