^ If you're from the South, you may want to check out HSDC. Their approach is very methodical and thorough.

Here's their course outline:

i thought motor driving lang meron sila dito. 
nag-aral ako dati sa A1.  it wasn't so good.  depende sa instructor.   may naging instructor ako na nang-aagaw ng manibela.  i was bothered by it kasi hindi ko alam kung gusto niya lang ako i-guide sa paghawak ng manibela or type niya lang hawakan yung kamay ko. 
pero yung isa naman magaling talaga. pag-siya ang nag-aasist sa akin ang dami kong natutunan at lumalakas ang confidence ko pag-drive.  pero mali din kasi ang diskarte ko.  next time i'll take a driving lesson isang  instructor lang ang kukunin ko (sana magaling) tiyaka better if you take a longer hours shorter days of lesson rahter than spread your lesson on longer days shorter hours.  kasi before 1hr lang ako for 5 days puro weekend lang.  so everytime na babalik ako sa lesson nangangapa ule ako.

^ Nope, they have lessons for four-wheel vehicles too. Maganda sa Honda, very systematic yung tips nila, especially for parking, because they've been trained the Japanese way. What they teach here shows up in practical driving exams abroad.

pansin ko, bakit ang mahal ng singil kapag automatic? e kung tutuusin mas madali matutunan un di ba?

^sabi ng instructor ko mas mahirap daw ituro ang matic. don't know why..

[swiTsuplada]

I can't decide where to take driving lessons. Nag-inquire na 'ko sa Socialites pero not yet decided pa.

[hoyhoy]

yan din ang question ko nung nag aral ako, bakit mas mahal ang matic kesa manual, kasi daw ms mahal ang insurance pag matic and besides nga mas modelo kasi ang gamit nila mga sasakyan.
I enrolled at socialites last year, i was with my gay friend, dalawa kaming sabay, palitan lang ng manibela per hour, ang pansin ko lang sa instructor namin, pag yung gay friend ko na ang nagdadrive mainitin ang ulo nya pati masungit kasi me kabigatan ang paa ng friend ko, lalo na nung di pa nya natutunan timplahin ang clutch. meron nga instance na pinalipat na ng isntructor namin yung riend ko sa passenger seat, nagpalit na sila kasi nag kucause na kami ng traffic. pero, nung finally natuto na ang friend ko, cool na sya.

I enrolled yesterday for mixed course (Manual and Automatic driving) sa Socialites. Bale 2 hrs. manual tapos 3 hours automatic. I want to learn handling automatic vehicle kasi 'yun ang ipapa-drive ng company sa 'kin but then gusto ko din magkaron ng konting knowledge sa manual.

Nakakaloka dahil 1hour pa lang at walang sinayang na sandali 'yung instructor ko. 1 hour manual driving kami yesterday. First time kong humawak ng manibela pinag-drive nya na agad ako from Shaw Blvd. (Crossing) to QC (via San Juan route). Sumiksik kami sa matao at ma-traffic. Tapos rush hour pa. Nakakakaba pero I must admit natuto agad ako. Sana pag ako na lang mag-isa hindi ko makalimutan ang mga itinuro nya sa 'kin.

[V_for_Victoria]

^ Once you know how to drive a manual, it'll take you all of 10 seconds to learn an automatic.

It would've been better if you'd gone manual all the way with a driving school.

my friends and I are planning to enroll sa socialite crossing this month, inaayos na lang namin student permit namin. naeexcite na din kami. sana may discount since 3 naman kami.

[swiTsuplada]

'Yung sa Starmall ba 'yan sis? Nice 'yung nag-assist sa 'kin dun. I had fun.

V_for_Victoria: I agree with you sis!

[hoyhoy]

Jan din ako sa crossing nag enroll last year

[neng10]

yes sis sa starmall shaw. sana we'll have have a good service just like u.

[capsulemuffin]

I'm planning to enroll as well..

Socialite or A1? Which is better?

I'm considering Honda Driving school too.

Please help me decide, TIA!

[V_for_Victoria]

^ I swear I don't work for them, but if it's easy for you to go to Honda, I say try them out. Medyo mahirap nga lang pumunta to HSDC in Parañaque unless you live nearby.

[pixiedust]

goal ko kasi maka kuha ng license before dec. is it better to apply sa driving school or magpaturo nalang sa kakilala na may pro license?

marunong na ko magdrive dati. i actually had a student's license na before bero di lang ako kumuha ng non-pro after kasi hindi ako nagddrive. eh i think it's about time to get a license na rin for me.

[ReservoirDogs]

I'll be having my first driving lessons on Saturday.  My sister and I enrolled at Socialites in Banawe.  I specifically told the receptionist na ayaw ko nang masungit ng instructor, lol.  I mean nagbayad ako para turuan, hindi para sungitan or sigawan.

I got the 7-hour lessons for 3,300.  Depends kasi sa car na gagamitin.  Kapag lancer/corolla 2,900.  Pag vios/altis 3,300.  I chose vios kasi vios yung car ko.

[roxybrat]

after nyo mag aral sa driving school nag try na ba agad kyo umalis alone?

[hoyhoy]

hindi, at kahit hanggang ngayon di na ko nagdadrive kasi sobrang duwag ko, ang galing galing ko pag me kasamang instructor pero pag iba na kasama ko sa kotse at alam kong sariling kotse na ang hawak ko, takot na ko  in short, nagsayang lang ako ng pera at effort ko.

[roxybrat]

^awww ganun ba sis?? ako i tried nanginig tuhod ko nun nasa main road na ko pero nag stay focus na lang ako at dasal since mabibilis mga sasakyan nun iba.. waahhh.. kaya mo yan sis.. try mo din.. para di sayang effort mo.. eventually masasanay rin [textspeak!].. mas takot ako ngaun sa parking sa mall.. hehe
