    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

    🌆 How do I improve my Thai in Norfolk, VA and what are my options in terms of commitment?

    Besides self-study with special programs, you have four key possibilities for learning Thai interactively in Norfolk, VA. First, universities and community colleges are an especially good idea for in-state residents. Also, ask about the centers for continuing education and professional studies (they are better priced.) Your second possibility can be local for-profit language academies that are better priced and flexible in schedule and requirements. Third, international learning centers usually offer cheaper group and more expensive in-person courses. Fourth, you can find a private Thai tutor in Norfolk, VA. If flexibility is key, you can compare local Norfolk, VA 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 by dividing annual tuition by 10 (one course is usually 3 out of 30 credit hours offered) to get the cost of fifty or so lesson hours each semester. Language schools and private Thai tutors charge $30-55 per hourly group lesson, with private classes starting around $50 or more. Some of the more affordable Thai tutors can be found online, with costs on Preply averaging 18 and tutor rates varying widely based on tutor location, availability and popularity. Customer review average for Thai lessons on Preply is 4.98 out of 5 stars.

    📚 What level of Thai do I need to sign up for a course?

    When considering college and learning center classes be prepared pass a few pre-requisites. Predetermined curriculum classes vary widely in terms of textbook quality, homework load and testing, so research the details in advance. With personal Thai tutors you can read reviews and get a good idea for whom the tutor is effective with and which other specializations they make available (like classes for adults, etc.) For maximum flexibility, choose a tutor from many teaching online.

    🔥 Why is Thai not easy and are there ways to learn it in a better way?

    Formal language instruction practiced in schools is not the most effective way to learn Thai. As proven by others before, you can gain basic Thai fluency in 300 hours from zero knowledge. Studying and getting feedback five hours a week you will be able to understand many sentences, speak on some level, get proficient in daily routines in about a year. Offline interaction is not a practical option for everyone, so online classes are a fast and fun 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 learners.

    🤷 How long does it take to master 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 require at least 600 hours of study. The length of time can differ by a lot depending on your available level of Thai or proficiency in other languages in the same group. As soon as you've learned the basics it is a good idea to use the language as often as possible: watch news and movies, write by hand and online using your new language skills, seek native speakers to speak with, try additional ways to think and speak in Thai out loud. If this is a greater challenge than you had anticipated you can also take conversational Thai classes online.

    🤳 What are my options when choosing the Thai coach?

    In colleges and universities, there's a likelyhood you could choose your own tutor (from select few). Online, absolutely! The largest selection of tested Thai tutors with extensive profiles and real student reviews is available on online language learning platforms like Preply.

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

    Colleges offer classes twice a week over a semester (75-day period). Language schools typically 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.
