Yes, I've enrolled with BBDC since it's nearest to my residence, and have completed the 4 compulsory theory lessons and have also passed FTE (compulsory to pass before applying for PDL which is a requirement to book for practical lessons). Since my FTT is still in a month's time, I started my first practical lesson on Friday.
I didn't request for fixed group nor fixed instructor scheme and am now entrusted under G6019 by random, with 6387 Chua W H (Kelvin Chua if I didn't see his name on the staff pass wrongly) as my first instructor.
I was anxious yet excited before my lesson, since it's been 7 years since my 2nd lesson with a private instructor. I was never a disciplined person so I deemed that private instructor scheme wasn't the way out for me since I only pay on the day I have the lesson. But for BBDC, I have to deposit the amount before booking of lessons. And since there's no sponsorship, the pinch is the reality.
Back to the lesson on Friday, I stalled the car frequently when braking since I really couldn't get used to the braking sensitivity, and I forgot to floor the clutch pedal (note to self: 1/2 clutch is useless during braking.)
The instructor I had was good. At least, he's chatty. I think I would be more tensed if the instructor I had was the quiet type instead. He pointed out my mistake if I steered too much or too little, unlike the private instructor I had which steer the wheel instead. And when my car stalled, he asked what was my mistake which I replied I forgot to floor the clutch pedal. Though I felt bad about telling him to stop asking me questions as I couldn't register what he was asking at the same time I was shifting gear... Hahahaha!!
If my boss and the deities permit, I seriously don't mind having my future lessons under him.
