🌟 Sà-wàt-dii kráb! – Hello!
I’m Tam, a Thai teacher with 8 years of experience. 🧑🏫 My passion for languages began during my master’s in documentary filmmaking in Berlin, where I spent 5 years immersed in its vibrant culture. 🇩🇪✨
Currently, I’m a project manager at a leading movie streaming platform in Bangkok 🎬 and a part-time filmmaker. I’m also a book lover 📚 and art enthusiast 🎨 who’s crazy about movies.
In the classroom, I combine my love for language and teaching to help students learn, speak, and communicate confidently in Thai. Let’s make learning Thai practical, fun, and rewarding! 🎉🗣️
Me as a Teacher
I’ve tutored students from beginner to advanced levels in Thai. 🌟 My language teaching journey began while learning German, where I did language exchanges with those wanting to learn Thai while helping me improve my German. 🇩🇪🗣️
While in Bangkok, I taught Thai face-to-face to two German students for about three months. Since September 2017, I’ve been doing language exchanges daily, helping learners from all over the world. 🌏✨
With over 4 years of experience, I’ve guided many foreigners in learning Thai, tailoring lessons to their needs and ensuring practical, fun, and effective progress. 🎉📚🎯
My lessons & teaching style
My lessons are tailored to your interests! 🌟 I always start with a short chat to understand your goals and passions. 🗣️ From there, I provide various materials like audio, homework, and more to support your learning. 🎧📚
As a filmmaker, I can recommend Thai movies, YouTube channels, and even delve into Thai literature or other cultural aspects. 🎥📖✨ These topics not only make learning engaging but also keep your motivation soaring high. 🚀 Let’s make Thai learning both fun and meaningful! 🎉🌏

Have been working with Kru Tam for a couple of months now and really enjoying it. The lessons are very interactive and structured well so that you practice both reading and speaking, and the exercises you do together really help put the new vocabulary you learn into context. He is really patient and makes sure you get the pronunciation right (particularly the tones!) which is something I really need and value as a beginner!

My first classes with Tam have been good. He gives a comprehensive learning experience, weaving together multiple aspects of Thai language learning - from script and speaking to grammar and cultural insights - which creates an integrated approach that feels natural and engaging, and is exactly what I was looking for. He's patient and has great attention to detail, particularly in pronunciation instruction, which I really appreciate.
