Reliable Private Driving Instructor?

[zuldevil]

Oh wait, I do hold the clutch a bit before fully releasing. Just now while I was driving, I took note of what I was doing. Haha.

 

[charleslin]

You hold it at half way as well for all gear shifting?

 

[zuldevil]

Not quite halfway. Near the end, for about less than a second, while giving it more gas, before letting go of the clutch completely.

charleslin, your clone ah at EDMW? Hahhahaha. http://forums.hardwarezone.com.sg/showthread.php?t=2982038

good private instructor

Hi Kallstrom,

Yupz my TP is at SSDC. Book liao but have to cancel lor..no choice...Coz i no longer learning with him...Now looking for another instructor (manual) teaching around woodlands area...You looking for instructor too?

Basically he is being petty about fetch and send service. I am in fact paying for it. But he make it sound as if its a "free service". His vehicle is a racer modified car. He is more conscious about his car than teaching me. There was once, i accidentally change gear while in half clutch mode, he bolted so strongly that i was taken aback. As a student who is a beginner in driving we are bound to make such mistake right so why the sudden reaction by him.

In addition, i told him in 1 of my lesson that i could only commit an hour due to work commitment. Instead of acceding, he flare up saying he do not teach for an hour.

Told myself enough is enough and i would not succumb to such incident again.

To anyone of you who is planning to engage Ang Pho Tho, SFA 1840 L as your private driving intsructor, please think twice.

Hi guys,

Just passed my TP this morning! (First Attempt)

He teaches manual.

If anybody look for PDI around west area can contact my instructor, Raymond.
He's pickup point is as lakeside MRT station there. Rate is 26/hr for non peak, 28/hr for peak.

He have teaching experience of 30years, driving a white mit lancer.
Basically, he's very patient with me and always say "There's no "un-teachable students unless the students itself don't want to learn." He will let you drive around Jurong West area till he feel that you're ready for TP route. Learning from him, you will feel that your on road driving is much better compare to those school learners 1. He got his own ways of teaching and own theory of booking test date. So is either you want or don't want to listen.

One thing to note is that, he can't stand stubborn people that always talk back. He is those responsible type unlike some will fall asleep or don't care about you. If you don't mind him listening to oldies and eating tidbits while teaching, then it should be alright.

There's a one-time registration fee of S$50, and for test day, there's a charge of S$78 for use of his car(26 x 3). He will explain and calculate everything nicely for you. So don't have to worry.

Those who want his contact can PM me.

I took private manual for 2 lessons before decided to change to auto. 2nd lesson went on the road and let's jus say I nearly caused an accident which shocked me and my instructor badly, with cars horning behind and stuff.

Think Im one of those who has problems in co-ordinating the clutch and accelerator, so decided to change immediately instead of going for another few more lessons to wait and see if got any improvements.

So I called up Lim Boon Seng driving services and Mr Lim himself answered. Told him my story and he said "Oh no worries, I had some students like you too"

Then asked how many lessons I've learnt previously and straightaway booked a 2hrs slot for my 1st lesson next week. Asked if he's going to be the instructor, he said no. He will assign a Mr Ng to me for the initial stages and only take over upon nearing TP date. He also said there's no fixed instructor per lesson but I can request for a fixed one though.

So this sets me wondering, no fixed instructor = no fixed car? Cant be learning on a different car under different instructor everytime right? And anyone currently learning from Lim Boon Seng driving services and especially under this Mr Ng, care to share on your experiences?

I suggest you get a fixed instructor with a fixed car. Else diff car diff biting point. And diff instructor will have their own ways to teach. You might get confuse or so.

I think there is something wrong with your monitor or your eyes, maybe that is why u cannot handle the clutch n accelerator.
