英语不好可以学车吗？分享我在阿德莱德的考车经历

jzabc2008

    我去年登陆阿德莱德，经过交规考试后于今年开始准备路考。本人英语不好，为了方便，经人介绍找到一对华人培训及考试。经培训后进入考试流程，最近一段时间，阿德莱德路考后，华人（特别是我这个超过60岁的华人）被抽中复试的概率极高，我找的这个华人（准确的说是马来西亚华裔）考官以怕我英语不好，被抽中复试时因为英语不好而折为由，坚持用英语考试。顺便说一句，如果复试不合格的次数在一年中超过3个，将影响考官的执照。考试过程中，发现此公的英语带有比较大的口音而且说的比较快（我女婿是英语专业的听他讲英语都费劲），考试时说长句时我很难全部听懂，所以无法适应他，第一次考试就这样以失败告终。这次失败让我觉得如果英语不好，在澳洲就不要开车了，因此我实在没有信心再去考第二次。
    后来一个朋友又介绍了一个华人陪练老师，她告诉我，没有关系，真正本地人考官见到你英语不好是不会说太复杂的英语的，况且，考车又不是考英语，她的话让我重新看到希望。经过她培训后我再去考试，顺利通过，通过后真的被抽中，复试仍然顺利通过。两个考官都是本地人，他们态度和蔼，英语讲的非常慢，我完全可以听懂。
    以上是我考车的经历，望和我情况类似的人不要再走我的弯路。

好好呀，我现在也跟教练学，教练人超好，但是我还是担心，到时不过，可不可以将你的老师的电话给我，还有我想知道如何考试？我8月才考路试，因为性格比较容易的紧张，有点担心呢。

Congratulations on passing your road test!
First, there is absolutely no way that you would get penalised due to incompetent English. This is a road test, not an English test. If you failed the first time, it has to be driving-related errors. And to be frank, it is not easy to not make any mistakes in driving. For instance, the 5 seconds rule, a very simple rule that most people neglect and don't signal for 5 seconds before they change their directions. People don't realise that they are actually losing marks for not performing the 5 seconds rule. You would have been told of the mistakes that you made at the end of the test.
Second, most of the asian driving instructors speak fluent English including those from China, Taiwan, Malaysia, etc. This is Australia, so it's probably best to get the language well practised before even going for driving lessons as all the signs and communication has to be in English.
Lastly, if your son-in-law specialises in English, he would have easily understood most of the English speakings regardless the person's country of origin. Even a normal person who hasn't got English background would understand the accents from different countries.
The conclusion is, be thankful and never ever put a blame on the others just because you failed the test due to the so called poor English as you were doing a driving test, not an English test.

请问，熊教练是女士么？

和楼主经验类似，上周失败一次了，华裔考官说得又快又跳跃真的听不懂。听您这么一说我真的很担心第二次考试。我的教练几次练习都不和我说英语，每次我要求他都说没有关系考试说得很简单。结果考试上来我就听不明白，考官还问我“啊你英语很差么？”我也不好意思说你的口音我听不懂。真的要换么？

熊教练是女士

建议你果断换教练，因为教练和考官基本是配对的。我遇到的这个组合不光是教练教的实用，关键是考官的英语讲的非常慢，而且不说长句子，很容易听懂。
