I first tried one of the well known commercial courses and found it hopeless. It left too many questions, gave inadequate explanations and assumed I would have the memory of a parrot. I soon gave it up and then found Thai Style and started as a complete beginner. The materials are superb and show wonderfully how the Thai language works differently from English. You quickly learn the basics and then move on to more interesting and complicated language seamlessly. I’m now learning reading and writing, something I once thought was way beyond me, and this is helping with the speaking too. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this course to anyone wanting to learn Thai, and feel quite sure that it’s the best course and best value for money around
