searching for a teacher

Post by mosmaja »

I am looking for a person in HuaHin that can teach me how to speak thai.
I will come to HuaHin in october 2006 and stay to april 2007
I think I need the teacher for about 6 mounths and at least 4 hours a day.
The salery will be rather good and 2 meals free every day ?
Male or female does not matter. I have been looking with a candle without no succes.
Anyone interested ?

Nice attitude, Jockey! My guess is that "mosmaja" knows his second language better than you do yours. You might even need lessons in your first language, if that is English with a capital E.

"mosmaja" - there are a few teachers here, but it might not be easy to find someone to book for four hours every day. I also think four hours every day would be very tiresome for yourself, and therefore perhaps not even very efficient. I would like to learn Thai myself, but I find it tiresome just to think about more than one or two hours every second day for lessons. Of course this is why I don't know many words. :oops:

Anyway - I will let you know if I hear of any teacher with lots of time to spare. And I hope you will enjoy your stay in Hua Hin.

thai lessons

There are advertisements in the classified ads in the Hua hin Observer. The other think is to find a long haired dictionary to teach you.

There are many teachers around in BK and HH and no doubt everywhere else

The major issue I think is time span

1 hour a day and make sure you get the homework to go with it, I reckon that is the max intake

I tried it and did quite well until I realised they all want to learn English or Chinese so they didn't want to talk to me in Thai

One to one is very tiring for both teacher and student.
Two hours a day max with a 10-minute break.
Any more and you are trying to pout a litre into a 100cc glass.
