Thai for Beginners and Intermediate

Hi everyone. As we have now found a wonderful new teacher at AUA to teach Thai, I can start Thai language classes at AUA again.

Some people may wonder why we don't run Thai courses more often - well the simple answer is that it is surprisingly hard to find good Thai teachers here.

Anyway, details of the next Thai courses are as follows:

Beginners Thai: Tuesday to Friday (4 days per week, 6 weeks), 11.00am to 12.30pm (Total 36 hour course)
Intermediate Thai: Tuesday to Friday (4 days per week, 6 weeks), 12.30pm to 2.00pm (36 hours)
(pls note for intermediate, it is helpful if you can read basic Thai)

The courses will start on Tuesday 2nd March and run to Friday 9th April

Cost - 2800 baht.

If you are interested please contact AUA (next to Nongprajak park). Tel. 042 242 845, 325 776, email udon@auathailand.org, or pm me. ps. we are closed on Mondays.

Student visa letters can also be provided upon registration.

Many Thanks

Nick Dunning

Nick sign me up for a review of the basics.

Is there a corresponding English Course running in the same time frames?

So who is the new teacher?

Can I try one lesson first before signing up for the full course?

Yes of course you can.

Also, If anyone is not sure if they belong in the beginners or the intermediate, they can try both - and then decide.

I am confident the new teacher - her name is Took - will be a hit.

So Mac are you going to give her a try?

I'll stop by and ask Lucky.

FYI, In terms of value, the course we are offering works out at under 80 baht per hour of study. Which is pretty competitive I think.

Are any of these courses available evenings or weekends, please?

I work in the US on a 3 week on 3 week off schedule. I will be back in Udon area on the evening of the 4th. Is there any opportunity for a class that works around some not living full time in Udon?

Sorry for not responding guys, and thanks Bob for backing me up.

Unfortunately, we only run courses during the week (Tuesday to Friday), in the daytime. The times we offer classes have been the most popular in the past, so we tend to stick to it.

If we get enough people interested in evenings or weekends, we can open a class.

Hope this helps.

Yes - You can study during the time that you are here. You can pay 500 baht per week of study - It's not ideal, but at least you are able to study.

fyi, we will be closed on Monday, and open again on Tuesday at 10.00am.

Anyone taking this class care to write a review?
