As a native English speaker, I am VERY familiar with the struggles that come with learning a tonal language - in fact, I bet I can help you overcome these struggles better than a native speaker simply because I have experienced them myself.
I'm a native English speaker from the United States, but I have reached advanced and proficient fluency in the Thai language. I've lived in Southeast Asia for almost 8 years now, and I love teaching the Thai language and talking about Thai culture.Me as a Teacher
I have taught Thai to English speakers for several years now. In addition, I was also a professional English teacher at the high school and university level in the United States.My lessons & teaching style
I will get you speaking Thai the way Thais speak Thai from day 1! . . . I know what it's like to get frustrated, but I also know the path to overcoming challenges with the Thai language.
It's my firm belief that students learn best when they speak Thai in the context of real-life conversations. So I always try to focus my instruction with that goal in mind. Let me know what topics you like to talk about, and I will create a lesson to fulfill your needs!My teaching material
