I passed my Class 3 on the second try. My PDI was Mr Chow Jie Seng, 9008 7777. He teaches at CDC. His teaching methods may not suit some people, as he is more focused on teaching how to pass the circuit and course (with a lot of sighting points to remember), rather than how to drive in general. He does give out tips and tricks for real life driving, but he believes that you need to have a lot of experience on the road to get better. Good for students who think that driving is an art and that you can't be an expert just by learning how to drive in school.
He would also sometimes lighten up the mood by joking a round a bit. He doesn't scold in the angry way, but more of whiny, the "Oh God Why" kind of way or by making up a joke about your mistake.
Even though he might sometimes (especially when you never messed up) play/use with his iPad, he is still very attentive. For example, he will know that I did not check my blindspot, even though he was using his iPad or whether I f-ed a segment of the circuit.
Overall, he's good for those who just want a quick way to pass (as opposed to letting you figure out how to do circuit on your own) and want an attentive and light hearted PDI.
Anyone can recommend PDI at CDC? Learning for both class 3 and class 3a. Please pm. Thank you.
Why are you learning both? If you have a Class 3 license, you can drive an automatic. :/
