If you're serious about learning Thai, don’t hesitate to join! Margaret Lee2025-03-29Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have completed 2 Thai language classes, Read & Write and Intensive Thai Level 1, with Banana Thai. As a beginner, I am lucky to have Kru Look Kaew as my teacher as she is very patient and always look for ways to help us to understand more about Thai language. Thanks Banana Thai and Kru Look Kaew! Globe Trotter2025-03-27Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I just completed the Thai intensive course volume 1 with Banana Thai. It was a 24 hours of study spread over 16 classes in a group setting of 5 students with Kru Praiya (Look Gaaew). I really enjoyed the 8 week course and highly recommend it to anyone who’s a beginner. The teacher was very friendly and really took the time to explain everything. The study materials were easy to understand and they upload a lot of online self study quiz materials and class recordings, in case you want to go over it later or missed the class for any reason. I’ll definitely do the volume 2 with them too. Thank you Banana Thai team, Kru Praiya and all my classmates who made it so fun. Richard Tan2025-02-03Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have traveled to Thailand many times over the years. If you're reading this, you too, have fallen in love with the beauty of the Thai people, culture, and food, and now want to learn to read and speak Thai fluently to fully enjoy everything about this wonderful country. After plenty of research for the best resource to learn Thai, I easily chose BananaThai. I'm sure you have seen the lovely Kru Smuk on the YouTube videos. That same charm and charisma show in her courses as well. I purchased the Ultimate Guide to Thai Reading, as well as the first two Intensive courses. The information is so well organized and streamlined that I learned to read Thai in less than two weeks. Others have done it even faster, but I'm thorough in my studies. Compare that to people on YouTube showing how to learn Thai for free by using many different resources. It takes months for them to just learn the Thai alphabet, never-mind reading, because they have to create their own structure on how to study. With BananaThai courses, the information is broken down into perfect bite size lessons that are engaging, funny, entertaining, and logical. With each passing lesson, everything just makes perfect sense, and your confidence grows immensely. It feels so effortless to watch and learn as Kru Smuk teaches everything at the perfect pace with the most pleasant voice. Her smile and personality make learning Thai so enjoyable and fun. If you want to know what I chose to learn first, I decided to learn how to read Thai first (Ultimate Guide to Reading Thai) before learning the conversational material in the Intensive courses. Don't worry, you will learn plenty of vocabulary when going through the reading course. I can certainly promise you this. When I learned to read, and then began the other materials, learning became infinitely easier and faster! You can read the Thai script and transliteration so the vocabulary and information are so easy to learn! I highly recommend learning with BananaThai. The fun courses, charming teacher, perfect structure and organization make BananaThai the best investment in yourself to truly enjoy our beloved Thailand. Maliwan Khienpanya Swalve2025-01-25Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I took the learn to read course and it was amazing! I actually managed to learn how to read in less than a week. The teaching style is great and there are plenty of exercises to do to practice. Highly recommend to anyone who wants to learn to read Thai. Truly is as easy as peeling a banana lol Duria Durianovna2025-01-14Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Banana Thai is by far the best Thai learning program that is available on the market today! Kru Smuk is an incredible teacher, takes pride and joy in her work, very easy to study and very modern! I am proud to be your student! Highly recommended, very well organized classes and you will be able to speak Thai! Victoria Chai2024-12-27Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Highly recommend! I have attended intensive 2 & 3 group classes (and now onto intensive 4) with BananaThai. My Thai has improved significantly! The topics and pacing of classes are well thought out. My teacher, Kru Nooaon, is terrific, bubbly and engaging. I appreciate her sharing about the etymology of certain Thai words to better our understanding of the language. Shaminho Chang2024-10-23Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I learned Conversational Thai Level 1 to level 4 from Banana Thai. My teacher was Kruu Ying who is patience, kind and bubbly. Class is always fun with her and she always takes time to give us alot of examples and made learning easy and enjoyable. There are fun online quizzes, voice clip homeworks and many more. The materials provide from the school were good and very detailed. The format in text book structured and easy to follow.
