I have always corrected my private students´ grammar and to some extent, I believe that correct enunciation is critical.

I am in Phuket. Where are you, OP?

I live in Bangkok. If you plan to move to Bangkok or know someone who does the lessons like you please let me know.

Let me tell you guys a little bit about myself. I have taken private English lessons with 2 native English speakers, 1-to-1 at my home. None of them could perform good teaching to me. The first so-call teacher is not qualified, so he just sits and talks with me in English. He never prepares anythings, just comes and talk to me. The other one is somewhat qualified. He has a degree from a university but he just keep talking until the time is passed. And same as the first so-call teacher, he never corrects my grammar mistake or pronunciation. He told me that he would do that if he heard my mistakes. (I know I speak ungrammatical sentences every once in a while.)

I also took a lesson with a Filipino teacher who told me that she is American. The first time I heard her accent, it didn't sound so America, so I asked her she told me that she just moved to the States for a few years. I have never wanted to learn with Filipinos anyway.

I am tried of looking for a good English teacher. Most of them are just travellers who tries to get some money while there are here.

I want to know how or where can I find a good teacher? And how much I have to pay for them?
