Hi HPNY! Looking for Class 3 Manual Pdi SSDC, staying at Woodlands! Would be good if you could pm me cause I can’t
Someone exposed this Angela Tay and her dad, carousell account @drivinghoneybee
Scams intro fees like $100 from unsuspecting students when PDI contacts are readily available online or via police website. Refuse to pay intro fees to "agents" who disguise themselves as helping you! Did some csi on reviews abut her dad .

WARNING this man is now teaching under the name of Davis Zheng! Found him on Carousell through a contact called Angela Tay (I’m pretty sure she’s his daughter cause they have the same surname. her username is angelataych.) Paid a $100 sign up fee for her to pass me his number and tell me that his name was Davis Zheng. It seemed rly expensive but the carousell reviews were good so I just went with it. He made me pay a $60 deposit too. But during my lessons (7 in total) he kept referring to himself as Mr Tay, which I found super shady. Today I googled his number and found this page. Everything makes sense now!! WARNING TO EVERYONE PLS DO NOT LEARN FROM THIS GUY I took seven lessons and learned nothing at all. Didn’t even do a single directional change (for reference my sister learned how to do a directional change within her fourth lesson). For five consecutive lessons, I did the exact same thing: drive in a straight line for 20min, one U-turn, then another 20min of driving in a straight line. I’ve already told him during previous lessons that this is a waste of time but he would tell me that I had to “build up my confidence first” before he would teach me to do other things. Today I got in the car and told him that I didn’t want to do the same thing again this week for the sixth time and he took it super personally. He got super defensive and was like “ok then don’t learn with me anymore!! Mr Tay is just teaching you according to what I know!! cause I am the driving instructor... ”

Don't get scammed by "agents" like Angela Tay (81807536). their page is facebook[dot]com/Drive-Right-Private-Driving-Lessons-169909837111707
If the PDI is a true recomendation why are they charging fees to simply pass you a contact, think about it, easy money to Angela, when the contact can be found online FOR FREE.

Hi, looking for driving instructor around Bishan area.
YAAAA GUYS don't message this rojak person who ask to pm. Either rojak is getting a commission from scamming with Angela, or is Angela herself. Stop promoting Agents like her.
Wah this David Tay can become Davis Zheng, David Zheng, Tay Tiang Chong uh. So many identities, hiding what uh. Don't fall into the same trap as his victims.
KNN cheater.
1) He took at least a 10 minute break every lesson without fail. Given his high charges, this was pretty annoying. He doesn’t take a moment’s break between students so he buys food and uses the washroom during classes instead. Once, I showed unhappiness that he wanted to stop to buy something and he felt insulted, explaining many times after that that he was a good teacher and not interested in scamming my money. He also fancies himself an A class karaoke master and often showed me his videos and singing techniques in class good lord.
2) He charged me $18 to enter a multi-storey car park to practice parking on the top floor. He said that his friends were in charge of the car park and private driving students like myself could use the top floor to practice car park. I only learned much later that this is complete hogwash. Private students aren’t even legally allowed to practice in car parks.
3) He taught me parallel parking a day before the exam. I was very unprepared for the test and failed. He made me practice far less useful skills like 3-point turn and narrow U-turn countless times (both of which aren’t even tested nb) while leaving all the important skills to the end. What I am implying, of course, is that he withholds teaching you properly so that he can profit from you failing your test.
4) He never returned my deposit. But more on that later.
After I failed I continued taking more lessons from him. However, I was starting to feel amiss and that things didn’t add up. I consulted another private instructor I happened to chance upon on the way home, asking him about the way in which my instructor conducted his classes. He told me that the charges were exorbitant and unreasonable. He referred me to his friend who was a private auto instructor whom I called once to inquire more. A day after that, Mr David Tay ceased contact with me, refusing to pick up my calls and texts, never returning my deposit as well. I felt humiliated and angered that I did not even get the last word. He must have ears and eyes around to have found out what I had found out within the span of a day.

Got to know my instructor thru this “agent” and found out how much this person was earning just by providing us the contact of the instructor 
from what I know, the Instructors do not receive a single cent from the enrolment fee that she collected.
