Conversational Thai in daily life,Reading and Writing Thai

I Teach Thai Language to Foreigners Because I Love to Teach !

I also have a genuine love of helping people attain their language goals, thereby helping them to make the most of their visit to Thailand and their interactions with our Thai people in a wide variety of situations. And it gives me great delight to observe my students improving and progressing their skills in direct response to my teaching style.

I believe my experience in teaching and working with foreigners, my approach to these tuition classes, my flexible availability and my prices combine to offer you something unique and special in Chiang Mai.

More than 10 years Thai language tuition experience

Soft and patient manner

Tuition style adapts to student skill

Flexible with class days, times and locations

Modest fees and discounts for couples & small groups

People’s skill sets, personalities, objectives, learning rate all vary

Learning materials are current and carefully selected for each student

About Me

Hi, my name is Rattana and my nickname is Aor. I specialise in teaching foreigners and other visitors to the northern Thai city of Chiang Mai to learn to speak and understand the Thai language, as well as to appreciate the essential aspects of Thai culture and manner.

​I work with individuals, couples and small groups at agreed locations, on days and times which are convenient to you. We can meet in person here in Chiang Mai, or conduct lessons over SKYPE if you are anywhere else in the world.

​We normally begin by quickly assessing your existing level of language skills (if any) and building a programme designed to help you reach your target level of competency. Some people simply prefer a series of casual lessons focusing on their particular needs or area of interest.

Which ever approach you prefer, I use a combination of formal structured teaching and relaxed, interactive sessions to help you reach your goals as soon as possible.

I enjoy teaching the Thai language and take great satisfaction from seeing my students quickly progress and building their fluency based on expanding their vocabulary and teaching correct grammar and pronunciation.

I invite you to contact me to discuss your interests, to ask any questions and to help you get started as soon as you are ready.

Thank you for your interest.

Reviews (1)

The lesson and learning materials provided is very well structured and paced. Mrs Rattana caters to each student’s learning style. I was amazed and pleasantly surprised how much I learned in my first lesson with Mrs Rattana (1-hour conversational + 1 hour for reading writing) that I couldn’t believe it was just the first meeting with her! I find myself grasping the Thai language so much more than I could ever learn by myself despite the wealth of online resources. Very glad I made the decision to learn Thai with Mrs Rattana guidance :) At the time of writing, I have completed by 3rd class and more to go. My goal is to reach and master the basics. I highly and truly recommend Mrs Rattana class to anyone who wishes to learn Thai competently, at a pace that stretches you a little but not too out of reach. Despite the challenge in learning a new language, rest assured that you’ll be well guided.

Private online mathematics lessons - Qualified and experienced teacher
I am a qualified and experienced mathematics tutor. Graduated from the Free University of Brussels in 2011, I started my career by teaching remedial courses in different schools in Brussels. I then specialized in individual academic support by following educational training at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. I have been giving private mathematics lessons daily for over ten years. The students who follow my private lessons benefit from personalized support. The first session is devoted to an in-depth assessment of the student's mathematical knowledge. The objective is to detect its weak points and understand their origin in order to adapt my courses to its needs. I develop a tailor-made remediation program for each of my students aimed at filling each of their gaps. Over the course of the sessions, the student builds a solid foundation for learning and regains self-confidence. At the same time, I help him acquire a work methodology that allows him to gradually become autonomous in his studies. I have a perfect knowledge of the mathematics program of the College and the High School (from the Sixth to the Terminale). During my formative years, I studied and developed many techniques that make it easier to learn math. The strength of my pedagogical approach lies in my ability to explain in a simple way everything that the student finds complicated. I am passionate about this job because it gives me the opportunity to guide dropout students on the path to success. It is a real pleasure to see them evolve and come to terms with the fantastic world of mathematics. I provide my private lessons in Limoges (at the student's home) or remotely (online via the internet). My distance learning courses take place on an interactive online whiteboard. This board is specially designed to promote student/teacher interaction on the internet. Thanks to this educational tool, my online courses are as effective as home courses. The student only needs an internet connection and a computer, tablet, or smartphone to take advantage of it.

I often bring experimental materials to class, aiming to make learning memorable through hands-on experiments. As an educational mentor, I approach my students as if they were my siblings, valuing creativity. I have a deep passion for mathematics, physics, and science. I am dedicated to helping students understand and learn because life encompasses both SCIENCE and ART.
