    Thai language lessons in Chiang Mai

    Does anybody know anywhere that does Thai Language evening classes in Chiang Mai? Everywhere I've looked only does daytime classes and I normally work until about 7pm. I've got as far as I'm likely to get with books and Rosetta Stone and it's time get professional help. The relatives speak Muang al the time so I don't get any help there.

    i think they all close early Bob.
    you would probably be better off going the private route.

    AUA does privates for about 250 per hour. I took some for writing. They were helpful & effective even for speech and listening as well.

    here's the link.
    it's pretty scathing of AUA but I have no idea if there were ulterior motives.

    You can get privates in your home, office where ever. Think it's up to the teacher to schedule. worth a call.
    As a far as City Life? I've never been too impressed with the accuracy or the impartiality of anything they ever publish.
    My opinion with AUA here is based solely private one-on-one lessons. The teacher I had was good. in a few hours she had me understanding and hearing tones and knowing how to transcribe the correct combinations of initial consonants, vowels and finals. After in about 20 hrs I could take dictation pretty good never did my home work either.

    Well now DrBob, after having us believe you were an expert on all things Thai we now find out you can't even speak the language.

    The conman has been rumbled. This is definately a job for Drummond. What if DrBob had been an airline pilot?

    I expect to see a clip of DrBob, speaking very bad Thai, on the internet within 24 hours.

    Indeed, Begbie must bored stiff if he's bothering to revive 3 year old threads

    FWIW, I did find this chap, Pattara Suttajit, How to Learn Thai | Thai language learning material and classes in Chiang Mai, Thailand. Excellent teacher, situated in the Santitam area, not far from Central on Huay Kaew.

    Just trying to inject a bit of levity into what has become increasingly a very dull place.

    I'm bored with Thai, know any good muang teachers?

    I'm interested in learning to speak Thai. I want to learn more than just phrases, my goal is to achieve a conversational level fluency. I know there is language learning computer software out there, but I'd prefer to learn from a real person. Does anyone know of Thai language classes in the Los Angeles area?
