  1. A bank statement would be accepted as long as there is enough to support yourself for a extended period of time.

    Thanks for the quick replies. Much appreciated.

    Proof of income? Aren't they studying, and not working?

    How can you study in a foreign country without money or income?

    Perhaps the concern is on the term "income", which could be interpreted as a "monthly inflow of money from employment", in which case would sound contradictory to a ED Visa terms.

  2. I've signed up an account because I'm interested in studying Thai language in the near future.



    Read through a few threads but couldn't make sense of some visa requirements.



    My interpretation of info so far is that a foreigner in Thailand should not be working (whether locally or online) without a WP, but how would then would one generate "a source of income" for the ED-visa?



    Or do "income" here simply means sufficient bank savings rather than a constant monthly inflow of money?

  3. I teach high school maths, but don't see a non-algebraic way to do it. At this level then seem to use block models, at least in my son's Singaporean books. J and M are the same, so we can call them 2X. S is 8 less, so we can call that X-8. They add to give 64, so X -s 24. Sara is 8 less, giving an answer of 16. It's a little advanced for third graders. I think 5 graders could have a good go at it though.

    You're right that younger learners in Singapore use block methods before moving to algebra.

    The approach is similar, its mostly replacing our "x" with "blocks" to make it more visual.

    Hard to type it out, but here's my take.

    Let distance ran by S be [ ]

    Therefore,

    S : [ ]

    J : [ ]+ 8

    M: [ ] +8

    Total : 3 [ ] + 16 = 64

    3 [ ] = 48

    [ ] = 16
