My Story: From a Small Town to a Global Classroom
I grew up in a small town in Thailand and saw my first foreign friend struggle to learn the language. She was using old textbooks and couldn't have a simple conversation.I realized my passion was not just for my language, but for sharing it.
I saw how frustrating it was for people, so I got certified Thai Language Instructor and my TEFL certification and dedicated myself to creating a new way to learn: a method that is patient, practical, and focused on real-world communication, not just memorization.
Today, I am grateful to teach students from all over the world, both online and here in my home of Koh Samui.
My Teaching Philosophy
I believe learning Thai should be enjoyable, practical, and tailored to your unique goals and learning style.
Personalized & Practical
Your goals are unique, so your lessons should be too. I don't use a generic script. I build a custom plan around your needs, whether it's for travel, a partner, or business.
Real-Life Application
I focus on practical, everyday Thai that you can immediately use in real situations. My lessons incorporate cultural context to help you communicate authentically and confidently.
Communication, Not Perfection
My goal is to get you speaking. We focus on practical, real-world conversation from day one. Don't be afraid to make mistakes, it's the only way to learn!
