Thanks a lot for ur answer and for the language exchange website. That´s really interesting.
Yes, you are right. Learning a language by books might be pretty different to speak or to understand the language by listening.
For example reading an english text or listening to radio-shows is not a big problem for me. Watching english movies can be a really big challenge as long as the actors use to mutter.I have the chance to talk with my thai friends via skype. Learning the basics by highspeedthai and talking via Skype / talking face to face with thai people living in germany as u suggested would be best.

Hello, first of all allow me introduce myself.
I´m a 45 year old german (and still live in germany).
Two years ago i fell in love with thailand. Since then i made some friends via the internet. Most of them had to be dumped but 3 or 4 buddies (girls of course ) are left.
The problem is, (many of you might know) an englished based conversation with thais can be pretty annoying (even when they have a bachelor or masters degree).My english skills are not good enough to teach them so i decided to learn thai. Not only to pamper my friends...first of all i try to keep my brain working.
Finding a thai teacher in germany is almost impossible and i doubt that 1 hour a week in a community college will help me to make significant progress.
So i have to find another way to learn thai. I watched some videos from "Learn thai with Mod", btw. i.m.o. one of the cutest and stunning thai girls i´ve ever seen.
Her videos i will keep in my mind for later but for the first step i decided to try Highspeedthai.
Hopefully this will help me to set my first steps in thai language on a solid footing.
I will keep you up to date about my first steps with highspeedthai.
long time in Thailand and my thai still sucks

I guess that it is not about the age if and how fast u learn a new language (that would be pretty sad).
It´s a question of motivation and pressure.
I´m not sure but maybe this video might be interesting
