    Join me on a journey to learn Thai. Together, we'll explore this rich language My name is Pond. I am an experienced and friendly tutor who offers affordable lessons. Learning with me provides many benefits, including personalized attention and a comfortable learning environment. I specialize in teaching not only the Thai language, but also Thai culture, slang, and idioms.

    Why choose Thanundron W.
    "Thanundron is very friendly and patient. He would stop to ask if I had any questions which gives me the opportunities to double check on pronounciation and etc. He would use different tools such as Google Doc to spell out “phonics” in English and supply e-materials to replay and listen to practice after lesson - I find those very helpful."

    Intermediate and Advanced Thai I'm Kruu Momm(หม่อม). Many students reach a certain level in Thai but get frustrated that they can't get to the next level. If that's you, then I'm the teacher for you! In my lessons we will only speak Thai. I have helped hundreds of non-native speakers speak Thai so clearly that even Thai people can't tell the difference!

    Why choose Patchar T.
    "I’ve been learning Thai with Patchar (Kruu Moom) for a few months now on a regular basis, and I can say that I progressed from zero to beginner level in just a little time. The lessons are well structured, and we insert a lot of free speaking into the lessons to improve my speaking skills from the beginning, as I’m mostly interested in conversational Thai. Patchar is a professional teacher with a solid background in language education, and she knows how to keep her students motivated. As she only speaks Thai during the lesson with a lot of gestures, drawings and her own tailor-made material, progress through full immersion is guaranteed, and the student naturally learns the language through imitation exactly the way a child would learn the language. Patchar has a clear voice and friendly attitude which helps immensely with understanding the various tones and pitfalls of Thai, and she is very patient with repeating the same things over again. I’m looking forward to continuing my progress until I reach fluency. Kop khun khrab Kruu Mom."
