Maxonsote Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Sawat-dee krap Everyone! I've been in Bangkok now for 3 weeks and loving my plan to stay for quite longer, so I'm wanting to learn Thai (speak and read would quite suffice!) but have no idea where to start. Would very much appreciate your opinion on best thai learning schools in the downtown area that may offer a good balance between quality, price and location (particularly near a BTS station).

lemoncake Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 pick the one that does not offer ED visa, they will most likely offer best teaching. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it kind of depends on your class. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cameozo Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 I highly recommend UTL also. Or Rak Thai, which a couple of my UTL teachers moved to. Avoid schools that cater specifically to people looking for visas. Though most schools will offer you a visa if you study enough. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jak2002003 Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 I can really recommend the school I go to. I have been there 3 years and am very satisfied with them - both for the teaching and also for my ED visa. They are called Pro Language. I go to the Chiang Mai branch, but all the teachers are trained at the Bangkok branch first (and its their original branch). Don't rush into a decision though. Go and try a few different schools out first. Different styles suite different people. I know the Pro Language school does free trail lessons, so you might want to try one. Good luck whatever you decided. I have found it really fun and rewarding to learn Thai language. I advise you to learn the reading and writing at the same time and speaking. It is a bit slower to start with, but then your knowledge will 'snowball'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
