        Speaks

      Experienced Thai tutor/ translator/ national awarded public speaker. Now, I'm a private tutor for international learners, teaching from beginner to academic levels.
      Currently, I work as a Thai-English translator for a United Nations branch called the "Global Center", and I'm fluent in both languages. I'm also a skilled speech writer.

      Why choose Andrew S.
      "I have had many, many Thai teachers over the past few years and none of them really clicked for me. Language schools, private classes, group classes, I just didn't seem to be able to absorb the language, make progress or stay motivated. Things started to change after a couple of lessons with Andrew I could feel that his approach was very different. His method of teaching is carefully structured, he has a unique depth of understanding (and love) of the Thai language which is infectious and really helps make each class exciting and interesting. He really goes over and above, putting a lot of care, attention and effort into each class. His energy makes classes fun and engaging and he uses modern teaching methods (shared whiteboards (great, easy to understand works of art!), workbooks and beautifully designed class slides which he has made himself). He sends me book and app recommendations, homework and extra reading. You can tell he really cares and I finally feel like I am making progress in my Thai as a direct result. I cannot recommend his classes enough, I am so glad I found Andrew!"

    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

    🌆 How do I improve my Thai in Kent, WA and what does it take in terms of commitment?

    Besides self-study using special programs, you have four main options for learning Thai interactively in Kent, WA. First, universities and community colleges are an especially good idea for in-state residents. Also, read about centers for continuing education and professional studies (they are cheaper.) Your 2nd possibility can be local specialized language academies that are cheaper and flexible in schedule and requirements. Third, non-profit learning centers usually offer cheaper group and more expensive in-person courses. 4th and last, you can find a private Thai tutor in Kent, WA. If flexibility is key, you can compare local Kent, WA and online Thai tutors.

    🎟 How expensive is it to learn Thai and what do Thai tutors charge?

    For university and college courses you can estimate Thai course cost as one-tenth of the yearly tuition (one course is usually 3 out of 30 credit hours offered) to get the rate for fifty or so instruction hours each semester. Language academies and independent Thai tutors charge $30-55 per hourly group lesson, with private classes starting around $50 or more. Some of the better priced Thai tutors can be found online, with costs on Preply averaging 18 and tutor rates varying widely based on tutor location, positive reviews and student demand. Average student satisfaction for Thai lessons on Preply is 4.98 out of 5 stars.

    📚 What are the requirements for Thai language skill level to sign up for a course?

    When considering college and learning center classes be prepared pass a few pre-requisites. 'Canned' classes vary widely in terms of textbook quality, homework commitment and exams, so research all such requirements in advance. With personal Thai tutors you can read real feedback for whom the tutor is effective with and which other expertise they make available (like classes for students of A, B, or C leves, etc.) For more flexibility, choose a tutor from those who are teaching online.

    🔥 Why is Thai not easy and are there ways to learn it faster?

    One-size-fits-all language instruction practiced in schools is not the most effective way to learn Thai. Realistically, you can gain basic Thai fluency in 300 hours from zero knowledge. Studying and getting feedback several hours a week you will be able to understand most phrases, have simple conversations, socialize in about a year. Physical language immersion is not a practical option for everyone, so online classes are a ready and affordable way of acquiring the basic knowledge of Thai. After acquiring basic skills, online marketplaces like Preply have Thai tutors who specialize in intensive classes for intermediate and advanced students.

    🤷 How long does it take to get better at speaking Thai?

    Some people seem to have a natural ability and learn languages quickly, but for most to go beyond the basics and gain working fluency in Thai will necessitate at least 600 hours of active use. The required duration of time can differ quite a bit depending on your current level of Thai or familiarity with other languages in the same group. After alphabet and basic reading it is recommended to use the language as often as possible: watch television, try typing using your new language skills, find native speakers to speak with, try other ways to think and speak in Thai out loud. If it's more difficult than you had imagined you can also take conversational Thai classes online.

    🤳 Can I pick my own Thai teacher?

    In language learning academies, it's possible that you can choose your own tutor (from select few). Online, of course! The largest selection of approved Thai tutors with extensive profiles and comprehensive reviews is available on online language learning resources like Preply.

    🗓 What time of day and on which days are classes available?

    Colleges as a rule run classes two times weekly over a semester (75-day period). Language schools usually make available shorter, 8-week, 12-week, and 16-week course sessions. Online, you can choose your own lesson frequency and time, on weekdays and/or weekends.
