jsut show that you are a safe and responsible driver. I stress, safe and responsible, not hum ji driver.
repeat his instructions, like how pilots communicate in the cockpit. What ever he instructs me to do i just repeated verbally.
this will help you alot. If you drive well in the first place.
wtf, you used RT?
knn, i never thought of that, the instructor told me to turn right, then turn right then go straight or sth..
i forgot after the 2nd turning right, then i ask him, then he scolded me for not paying attention..wtf man..

sometimes it gets like that, driving becomes very enjoyable you start liking it so much and the freedom that comes along with it. sometimes opt for night lessons just to go for a spin.
after i passed my tp, immediately queue up and ask whether converting to international license (so i can sit for more lessons) need to apply or not.
driving is fun, but not when there's an instructor beside you.. having to adhere to 60 and keeping to the left and all those crap..

recall:
these are my own jotted down notes...they are kinda loh soh, lol...but hope it helps!
1- Park car to the right, at the dotted white lines. Check right, left and behind for safety, signal left and put car in reverse. Reverse until the pole coincides with the top of the main demister line (which is the third short line). The pole will be at the corner. Turn steering wheel full lock to the left.
2- When the pole reappears at the start of third line again, turn steering wheel two rounds to the right. When the pole is almost disappearing, or you see that it’s at the corner of the third line, full lock to the left again.
3- When reversing into the lot, turn the steering wheel two rounds to the right to straighten the wheels and car is almost parallel with the kerb. When left shoulder is in line with the left center pole, stop the car, apply handbrake and put to P.
4- When driving out, signal your intention to the left or right, check safety, move forward until the first pole is at the center of the front left door, then drive out.
Parallel Parking
1- Position car to the left kerb. Check right, left and behind for safety, signal left and put car in reverse.
2- Full lock steering wheel to the left immediately on seeing pole is at the corner of the demister (third) line.
3- Look outside the window and through the right side mirror until you can see the bottom of the two poles, turn two rounds to the right.
4- While the car is reversing, look out until the pole is almost near to the Honda logo on the left windscreen mirror, once the pole is near to the Honda logo, a bit near to the windscreen wiper, full lock to the right.
5- Once the car is in the lot, reverse slowly, until you see the poles at the back, then step on the brake pedal, before hitting the poles. Once you step on the brake pedal, put the gear to D and move forward. If the car is more to the left, turn the steering wheel to the right to make the car straight, if you move forward and the car is more to the right, turn the steering wheel to the left, to make the car straight.
6- Once the car is straight, put the car in P, and apply handbrake.
7- When moving out, move straight towards the front poles, stop before hitting the poles. Reverse the car and turn steering wheel to the left about one round, when car is near to the rear poles, put to D, and return the steering wheel to the right. Signal right, check rear, drive out very slowly and fully turn to the right.
