Edu Visa + Investing In Thailand

[freedomnow]

Hi , if anyone has studied at 1 or both of these places , how did they compare ?

I'm thinking it would maybe be better to go with lang. exp and try to find a good low price 1-2-1 tutor as they are 29,500 Baht for their "premium Thai course " @4/8-days per month vs AAA's 6500 x 12 months @20-day = 78,000 .

Is there a school better than lang. express methodology for the same price ?

I'm sure a 4th year student of foreign languages would jump at the chance to teach a foreigner a few hours a week for some spending cash vs a 7-11 job ?

I understand AAA use the full native language immersion method (no English explanations aka sink-or-swim...glub glub! ) but I prefer bi-lingual training as I seem to remember better by "hooking" new foreign words to English words.

I just wonder if I would progress better by using the 78,000 -29,500 fee difference 48,500 for a tutor to study at my pace where and when I want.

Also , I've lived outside UK for 10 years with no plans to go back to live there as a non-dom expat so would my income from Thai stocks be tax-free (CGT) as a student there in BKK for 1 maybe 2 years while I take a break from work ? If yes ,this would really help with my cost of living over 1-2 years.

As this is not related to visas or permission to stay, I am moving it from the forum "http://www.thaivisa.com/forum/user/122647-chooka/" to the Thai language forum.
