สวัสดีค่ะ Hello,
My name is Narisa Naropakorn.
I have been teaching Thai to foreigners for almost 20 years and I started teaching via Skype 7 years ago. So no matter where you are in the world we can still connect to have our own private lessons in the comfort of your own home or office.
Currently I have students from the U.S.A, Canada, England, Germany, Denmark, Australia, Japan and Thailand. Please see some of their testimonials below.

Thai Teaching
Narisa teaches me Thai over the Internet two times every week, 1.5 hour per time. I found her announcement on http://www.thai-language.com
We communicate mostly in the Thai language, and in English when necessary.
Narisa lives in Thailand and I live in Denmark.
We use Skype:
- For Communication
- Writing: Chat board
I feel I have been very lucky finding such a good and clever teacher:
Very professional and clever and systematic
Good in using the Chat board with many good examples
Good in listening, questioning, being responsive
Good in helping a self-learning student like me
Good to guess what you need when you have trouble telling something
Good to correct quickly without interrupting your thinking
Good in building on what I tell
Good in integrating earlier lessons stuff in the current lesson for repeating
Many good examples, e.g. general sentence patterns
Very correct Thai and English language as well
Clear and correct pronunciation
*Lately by Narisa’s encouragement, I started to write my daily diary in Thai language. Narisa corrects them not just the simple spelling but also sentence structures and writing style too.
I live in Denmark and work as a software engineer.
I want to learn Thai because I want to be able to communicate with the local population in Thailand and follow up a communication. I was in Thailand last year for the first time and was very happy to meet Thai people, also got very good friends there.
Best Regards
Preben Madsen – Denmark

Testimonial from website member : John Member # 17
Hello forum members,
Teacher Narisa (iloveteaching) recently posted on the forum regarding online Thai lessons. Since I live in a rural area with no options for person to person Thai lessons I gave Narisa a try. Let me summarize my experience to this point (five lessons).
I was first concerned about investing my money up front with someone I didn't know anything about. Would the money and the teacher vanish into thin air? As it turns out Narisa has the integrity you would hope for when dealing with someone on the internet. She is trustworthy.
Now about the lessons. We use Skype for voice communication and the Skype chat for our written exchanges. Narisa has written her own lessons for instruction with the Thai written phonetically. When I told her that I could read Thai and didn't think the phonetic version would be of much help she set about to re-write her material in Thai. That is still a work in progress.
In the mean time it has been fun, challenging and rewarding to study with her. The lessons are tailored to my interests and the conversations revolve about the day to day issues in our lives such as work, food and family.
I would recommend that if you are looking for a resource to help with your reading, conversation, pronunciation or understanding of Thai that you contact Narisa.
John

I want to confirm, without any caveat, what John did post: Although I'm not from a rural area (in Canada) but from an urban centre in Germany, Bonn, near Cologne (Leverkusen, Duesseldorf, Dortmund ...), I share the same experience with John. Furthermore, I'm married with a woman of Thai nation (who could, in theory, teach me Thai), and in addition, I did not worry, as John did, about giving money (the money mentioned by John turned out in my case, as precise as Narisa is, in 5028,- Baht, the Satang I do not remember - for 10 hours of lessons).
How many hundreds of US$ I will have already spent for learning Thai without receiving something?
Narisa is a completely different experience (after 3 lessons, in my case) compared to my preceding, definitely more negative, experiences - than the current with Narisa. Narisa is:
1. HIGHLY reliable
2. accurate (on time and all other relevant issues).
3. at a high educational level
4. friendly
5. a MD in linguistics
6. Khon Thai
7. funny!!!
In summary, in the case that you are living in a rural ("Lao") region of this world, have made negative experiences in more urban regions with Thai teachers, and/or do not want to abuse your wife as teacher but want to learn phasa Thai:
Contact Narisa!
I forgot to say: She will find out at which level of Thai learning you are, and will make her teaching absolutely fitting with your needs...
In (summary and) conclusion: The optimal internet (does cause only rarely technical problems) teacher of Thai language I can imagine. Will continue with Narisa until I can speak fluently Thai (which still can takes several years )
