Hi all

I am looking for a driving instructor for SSDC in Admiralty area. Was wondering if the woodlands driving school near the MRT is good?

Thanks!

Mr William Tan, 97250952, SSDC, manual. I found him through this thread too.

Throughout my entire lessons with him, he doesn't scold, nag, take breaks or sleep. Not any of those crap.

He's a nice fellow and can even chat with you all the time if you decide to continue the conversation with him.

If he asks how you get to know him, say a person who passed on 27th March recommended him to you. :o

One lesson's duration is 2 hours, total $60. I took 11 lessons in total. Do keep in mind the cost of booking the circuit is another $23 - $28. TP is $250, I find it weird thought because I believe it used to be $150.

I didn't calculate the exact price, here's the rough guide. :)

INSTRUCTOR WITH POOR ATTITUDE

I don't usually post reviews/comments on any forum but am compelled to share my experiences and have created an account just to do so. I just started learning (3A, BBDC) a month ago and have completed 5 lessons to date.

DO NOT engage NEO LAM THONG. I got him via LE DRIVING (yes, on hindsight while browsing through the forums then I realized all the self-posts and students who also encountered lousy instructors from them). I guess compared to other horror stories I've read, his teaching is considered average (doesn't fall asleep/chat etc.) BUT his attitude is IMO, unacceptable.

3 hours before my driving lesson, he sent me an SMS saying "Lesson change to Friday, 4pm ok." I replied that I am unable to as nobody could take care of my baby on Friday while I already made arrangements for someone to do so on our agreed lesson slot. He called me thereafter saying that he cannot make it because a circuit slot suddenly came up and "sometimes it's like that la". I said it's unfair because unlike poly/uni students who have more flexible schedules, I need to arrange for someone to take care of my baby whenever I go for driving lessons. He got all angry and upset when I said it's unfair and said "at least I tell you now and not you go there then no lesson". His tone was very defensive and somewhat chiding me like it's not his fault at all. And to top it off, he rudely hung up on me.

That same night, I decided OK NEVER MIND, I sent him an SMS asking what other slots he had for this week. He replied "Friday, 4pm". The next day, I replied to say OK after confirming that someone could look after my baby. His reply - "late reply, no more slot". Yes I know you have so many students and I'm not top priority because I don't have a test date yet (going for FTT next week) but in the first place, I don't have a slot this week now, purely because of your selfishness in taking my slot for your circuit business. And at least I replied more than a day in advance while you only informed me to change lesson 3 HOURS beforehand, and that's not "late"?!

I still replied nicely and asked if he then had weekend slots instead and since I will also be returning to work soon, I can only learn on weekends (which I also told him on two separate lesson occasions). Guess what? MIA, NIL REPLY from him. (I just read someone else's post that she was under Mr. Neo previously and he was so busy, she couldn't book slots and he ended up ignoring her).

EXCUSE ME?! I am a paying student and it is totally unprofessional to ignore me like that. I understand that sometimes you may have to change lesson slots but you are being so irresponsible, when you in the first place, have accepted me as a student. I am going to drop you first because you have so many students (95 and only 25 passed?!) and I'm not one of those you can change and cancel schedules at your whim and fancy.

Just wanted to share this with everyone else. Totally spoils my mood thinking about it.
