Start date?? All I'm getting is allot of emailing!!!! Only 2 have the sincerity to make any commitment!!! How would I know the start date??? With out any commitments?

Hi Joe

I would be interested in the course. However, I work most days until 4:30 and some evenings as well. Weekends are definitely out. If you could ask what days and times the university would run the course I would be able to give a definitive answer. I live in Thailand and have no plans to leave in the foreseeable future so a start date is not an issue. I just need to see if I can work it into my schedule.
Cheers

Hello Thaibound,
From the schools website:
Class schedules: Study every Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 16:30 to18:00
http://www.udru.ac.th/english/footlight ... iners.html
I believe everyone has agreed this is a good time/schedule for them.

Can you leave work a little early and make this schedule?

Hi Jello - the link you gave is not working - spelling probs perhaps ??

I am interested and available for inclusion in a class to learn basic Thai

I have 3 so far? Thought I had 4 people for class? Would you be willing to pay 4,500 for the class if all I can get is 4 rope? Then I would go to the university for time schedule. .

As discussed in our phone conversation, I have no problem paying 4,500 if we only have 4 students.

Looks like a couple more people interested today?

Even at 4,500 Baht for 30 hours of classroom instruction, it's still a great price for a class taught by a University level teacher. It still works out to the lowest price available: 150 Baht per hour.

Here's the fees for other Language schools advertising on this site:

The Best Language Instruction: 3,000 baht for 12 hours (250 Baht per hour)
Chuan Language School: 20 hrs for 4,000 bt or one on one 300bt per hour (200-300 Baht per hour)
Let's Talk school dosn't list the price on their website, but someone posted here a few years back that he paid 500 Baht per hour for private lessons

I agree... But tell that to all the clowns that are wasting my time day after day with all the questions, excuses, and blab.... I have spent close to 20 hours trying to do this and I'm almost going to quit...

My Father had a staff of 3 in his business in a small town of about 3200 population. He had two of them in his words threaten him , by saying "If we don't get this (paid holidays for non public holidays) we will quit" so in his, how will I put it, fair mind, he accepted their challenge and told them to leave the premises never to return.
I was shocked when I heard this but it was and still is one of the greatest lessons I ever learnt. Never threaten anyone as one day someone, somewhere will accept that threat.

Threatening some-one? I would never do that... This blog is a great gift from the guy who's name I don't know but wood like to thank him for all he's done for the human family from foreign lands!!! I wouldn't want to jeprodise my ability to use this WONDERFUL BLOG!! I'm just expressing my frustration on the supposedly grown ups asking and stating things any grown up could figure themselfs.. But instead wish to use this blog as a chat room!!! Let's hope we get one or two more that know what they want and know how to achieve it!!! Like a class to learn thai!!!

Hi Joe Blow, fairly new to this forum. How do I email you my phone number. I have also emailed the Board for instructions. Am definitely interested in course so happy to pay 4500 if necessary and days times not a problem.

Call me 0825622843. Davy

Sorry you feel people are clowns for asking questions. I did not ask you to take this on, and I sure don't care if you quit. I am old enuf to handle my goals without your help. I am no longer interested in your class.

Hello Rockfossil,
Hopefully you've already received an answer to your question from the board admin (and called Davy). If not, I belive new users need to make 5 posts before your allowed to send a PM (private message). After that, just click on the "PM" box under the users name to send a message. More board info here: http://www.udonmap.com/udonthaniforum/faq.php

Thanks for signing up. Hope to see you in class soon!
