[Merged] Driving Schools

[KobyDear]

Hi sadalo chy! Okay lang yan...ganyan talaga ang pakiramdam kapag nag-aaral or magi-start pa lang mag-aral magdrive.Basta determined kang matuto im sure magiging magaling ka din eventually.
Ganyan din ako noon..pakiramdam ko gusto ko ng gumive-up at hinde na ako ever matututong mag-drive.

Are you familiar with Gear1 driving school? Meron din silang branch sa Las Pinas.Jan kase ako nag-enroll nong nag-aral ako but in a different branch.
For me okay ang pagtuturo nila,and mas cheap talaga ang presyo kesa sa A1.Some of the their drivers now are formerly from A1 too (like yong naging instructor ko)

Kung may kamag-anak ka na magtuturo sayo ng mga basics, try mong magpa-turo muna sa kanila driving around your village.Makaka-save ka kase ng oras at pera kesa iaasa mo lahat sa driving school.Ganon ang ginawa ko noon...(last summer actually) ang importante lang naman kase sa driving school eh yong highway driving experience,sa uphill (atleast for me) and yong lecture after the actual driving (6 hours yon sa Gear1) about trouble shooting, LTO policies etc which are very helpful too.

May license assitance din ang Gear1 kung nagmamadali ka,ako kase ako na ang nag-process sa lto madali lang naman din

Eto yong na-search kong address ng Gear1 sa Las Pinas
No. 487 Zapote Road, Almanza, Las Piñas. Tel. #: (02) 8061021

Hope it helps!

a1 is it worth it?

i wanted to learn how to drive and basically i dont have any knowledge or whatsoever. i inquired in a1 and they offer 20 hours of driving lessons which costs about P21,000.00. mahal. pero i just wanted to know kung worth it ba ito.

thanks

depende yan sa magiging instructor mo at sa traffic condition - lighter the traffic, more time to drive.

may mga instructor na susulitin ng per hour session mo...may iba magulang, sasadyain na mag-drive ka sa mga matatraffic na daan at doon pa lang ubos na ang 1 hour mo.

[saweverything]

^ oh my... may sggestion ka ba na worth it ang driving lesson?

[fattyacid]

^ sa socialite near robinson cainta ako nag-aral before at maswerte ako at magaling at matino magturo ang natapat sa aking instructor. i made a deal with him na concentrate na lang kami sa highway driving, hanging at parking and to which he agreed. he also recommended certain hours of the day na hindi gaano traffic kaya sulit na sulit ang driving course ko.

i initially paid for 5-hour refresher course and i negotiated na kung hindi pa ako matuto in 5 hours, i will upgrade to 10-hour course by paying the balance for the same 10-hour course rate pero since ok nga ang instructor ko, natuto agad ako in 5 hours.

anyways, kahit saang driving school ka pa mag-enroll just befriend or deal fairly with the branch operator and always try to negotiate things like asking for a good instructor (if hindi mo gusto ang instructor, request for a replacement) or flexible course or payment option.

anyhow, yung laki ng expenses at effort mo ay depende rin kung gaano ka kabilis matuto ng basic driving as experience with be the one to make you a better driver in the future.

good luck sa iyo and strive to be a responsible driver ha!

Ako turo lang ng dad ko

[heightenedstate]

Hi, I just got my SP this morning out of sheer pressure from family and friends.

Balak ko sa A1 ako mag-aral ng driving.

Medyo natatakot lang talaga ako dahil parang wala akong confidence magmaneho. Sinubukan ko dati with the help of my dad pero wala talaga (a few hours lang naman ).

Any tips to overcome my fear that I may never learn how to drive?

[adikpex]

Ok mag aral sa driving school @heightenedstate madami ka matututunan. last august lang ako natapos mag-aral mag drive.. Wala talaga ako alam sa pagdadrive pero natuto naman ako. Dapat kalmado ka everytime na magdadrive ka at wag agad-agad magpapanic. Syempre kailangan mag-ingat at maging alerto palagi para iwas aksidente..

[chris024]

Tama dapat calmado Lang talaga pero sa 1st timer Hindi naman talaga maiiwasang kabahan lalo sa m/t car. @heightenedstate maganda talaga mag driving although Hindi ko naranasan mag D. school dahil natuto na ako sa pag turo sakin ng dad ko. I admit it nung una akong natuto medyo aggressive driver ako lalo pag sa manila ka mag drive daming mayayabang na driver but now i learn na how to be a defensive driver. na good thing SIGURO pag nag D.school ka magiging defensive driver ka agad. and btw mas maganda siguro kung meron kayong old car na pede pag practice like in my case sa 92" mit's lancer namin dati yung sinkit -.- para mahirapan ka at pag sanay ka na pag lipat mo sa modelong sasakyan maning mani na ang pakiramdam ng pag drive.
@ lastly very important tip na binigay sakin ng dad ko everytime ako mag drive mag sign of the cross to guide me on my trip.

[heightenedstate]

Maraming salamat adikpex at chris

Tanong ko lamg kung tama bang na pag aralan ko muna ang manual driving sa driving school?

Sabi kasi nila pag marunong ka na mag manual, automatic alam mo na rin paano mag automatic driving.

Kinakabahan din ako dahil alam kong kumplikado ang manual driving.

Balak ko rin muna na 10 hours ang ieenroll ko sa driving school. Sapat na kaya yun?

[chris024]

^ tama gagastos ka na din manual car na ang pag aralan mo Para masulit mo na din. Tama pag marunong ka mag manual 100% mas marunong Kang mag matic (:
Mas mahihirapan ka pag matic --> manual.
About kung sapat na Yung 10 hours idk since dad ko lang ang nag turo sakin hindi ko alam ang kalakaran sa d.school. sapat na din Yan siguro for sure marunong ka na mag atras abante niyan after ng 10 hours any relative mo nalang siguro ang mag turo sayo tsaka Para masanay ka na din sa personal car niyo.

[heightenedstate]

Salamat chris

Manual it is

Nakunpalagay ko slow learner ako sa pagmamaneho. Sana ok na yun. Hmm. Yung mga kilala kong anxious mag maneho, natuto na mag maneho sa driving school n 7 hours daw.

Sana ako rin.

[adikpex]

Ilang taon ka na ba? Ako nga 21 lang ako natuto magdrive.haha. Matututo ka din basta gugustuhin mo, think positive lang... @heightenedstate
