    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.
    "After only a few lessons of advanced Thai with Kruu Momm, I'm already way more confident speaking in Thai with my colleagues and people in my private surroundings. Kruu Momm teaches Thai with a high standard and a very clear pronunciation. Sound and video quality are perfect. I can only recommend taking classes with Kruu Momm, for me living in Thailand, the classes have been a game changer."

Palm is really great teacher, it was my first time I learnt Thai language so I had really little kowledge about the basics - so as a complete beginner I can say he explains things really well, he is also very patient and kind! I enjoy the lessons very much!

Jasmin

with Seejittrapa

With Esther, i feel like i found a teacher who is adjusting to my needs! She also made her own curriculum, which is much easier to follow than the books. She puts so much effort into the learning progress of her students. And she prepares lesson beforehand, so we can directly start into the topic.
