Learning Thai

[swbaggies]

Hi,

 

Does anyone know of any recommended centres/tutors within the Miniburi/Bangkapi/Saphun Sung area that does Thai lessons for adults. The person does not need a visa and is looking to learn the language.

 

Thanks

Moving to the Thai language forum.

I'm thinking that these days almost every Thai "private" tutor is online, in that sense location does not matter. I looked at tutors some time back, average is about 5-600 baht @ hour.

 

The thai language centers/schools in more central Bangkok offer courses typically about 4 weeks, 2 hours @ day, around 7000 Baht month.  Prior to Covid I had some Sukhumvit area schools I would recommend, but the lockdowns put almost all of them out of business.

 

A friend who recently arrived has been studying at ALA language school (located in the Trendy building Sukhumvit Soi 13), group lessons.  He is steadily progressing.

You get alot of Thai Teachers now teaching online,  I have a good teacher using the Italki, you can learn via skype or on the Italki own platform.

 

Prices are very reasonable.

Just buy a few books on the subject, learn to read a little  and just go out and talk to people.  Much better than sitting in a classroom and a lot more fun, you will also save a considerable amount of money
