    Certified Thai Language with 28 year of experience Hello my dear students , My Name is Janthip, my nickname is Kruu Thip. I have been teaching Thai language on Preply for 7 years. I have a Bachelor's degree in Thai language and a master's degree in education. I have been teaching and directing Thai government schools for over 28 years, and have owned a private school with over 100 satisfied students.

    Why choose Janthip T.
    "Kru Janthip is a very patient teacher during the time she was teaching me. Even though I am already very acquainted with the Thai language, she still had a way for me to improve my speaking by helping me visualise the subject, verbs, and objects. This made it easy for me to speak with lesser mistakes. Kru Janthip is the teacher for you if you're looking for a genuine, passionate and patient teacher to help you on your journey to tackle the difficult nature of the Thai language. Cheers! "

I have helped hundreds of non-native speakers speak Thai so clearly that even Thai people can't tell the difference!
