Successful language learning starts with choosing the right teacher. A good teacher not only makes a connection with you, but also establishes a connection between you and the subject to be studied.
Let me introduce myself…
My name is Mia and I was born and raised in Thailand. I live in Northern Thailand in the beautiful city of Chiang Mai.
I have been teaching Thai to students from all over the world for more than 6 years. I started teaching Thai in the US while working and studying English there. I was invited to teach Thai at the local community college and taught there from 2006 to 2010. After 4 years of experience teaching Thai in the class room I started teaching Thai online, via Skype. In the last 2 years I have taught over 1,200 hours of Thai language lessons via Skype.
Teaching is my passion. I love teaching foreigners the beautiful Thai language and helping them gain a better understanding of the wonderful Thai culture, traditions, values, and way of life. Learning a new language gives students access to a whole new world and makes them aware of all the (subtle) differences between languages and cultures. Seeing my students’ knowledge of and fascination with the Thai language and culture grow is my ultimate satisfaction.
During the course of the lessons, the student-teacher relationship often develops into friendship. I have had students from all over the world visit me in Chiang Mai and have been told many times that they loved my hospitality. Meeting people from all corners of the world is a wonderful bonus of teaching Thai and plays an important role in keeping me motivated and full of enthusiasm to teach.
Learning a language is not just about vocabulary and grammar, it’s about (differences in) culture too. Because I have lived and worked in the US for 5 years, I speak English fluently and I understand Western culture. My understanding of how Westerners think and why Thai act in a certain way makes me the perfect bridge between two worlds.
The fact that I have lived abroad and have studied a second language myself helps me explain important differences between languages and cultures to my students. My understanding is based on real life experiences and not just on knowledge from books. I will not only be able to explain how to say or do something, but also why to say or do things in a certain way.
When you study a language it is important to find a teacher who will help you achieve your goals quickly by giving you the support, feedback, and motivation you need.
I will adapt your Thai language lessons to meet your specific needs, keeping the lessons fun, diverse, and interesting. You will be pleasantly surprised to learn how fast you are able to push your Thai to the next level.

« Hi my name is Emil and I'm from Denmark and I'm 18-years. I was searching for a Thai teacher that could teach me how to speak,
read and write Thai language online via Skype, then I found Mia's website. I speak with her three times a week and
I enjoy every minutes of it. She's a great Thai teacher that speaks perfect English and are very kind and always smiling.
If you want to learn how to speak read and write Thai, this is a great way. You get what you pay for, it's all worth it.
« I would just like to say that having decided to learn to speak Thai,a notoriously difficult language to learn,for Europeans not used to a tonal language,I could not have found a better or more understanding and patient online Thai teacher as Mia.
« Being a stay home mum in London, Mia gave me full support by helping me learn Thai at the comfort of home and at the time when it is most convenient for me. I also like the fact that I am able to learn what interests me most and Mia is able to customize my Thai learning content to fit my needs. Having a one to one Thai tuition is a luxury to ensure I learn at my own pace and it is a very enjoyable experience too. I find learning Thai online via Skype is pure genius as it provides full flexibility and accessibility from anytime anywhere and would definitely recommend it to those interested! 
« I've just started learning to speak,read and write Thai with Mia, and I can honestly say it is a pleasure working with her. She's smart, dedicated Thai teacher to getting you up to speed as quickly as possible and has really helped me progress. Thanks Mia! 
« When one, as an European, start studying an Asian language in the age of 50, its some of a challenge.However, I found Mia, using Skype, and have taking speaking reading and writing Thai lessons from her in about 6 months.She really have the ability to make it interesting and funny.Times fly when I have lessons, I just wish I had more time:-) Mia also have very good understanding of your difficultness and she is very patient.I can only recommend her as a Skype Thai teacher/Thai tutor.
« My name is Brandon and I am more than satisfied with miss Mia's and her staff's teaching Thai. I'm in the military so my schedule is pretty tight. That isn't a problem though because they are willing to work with you with whatever times you are available. Learning Thai online here is much more beneficial than learning another language in a class room. Mainly because you go at your own pace. You don't have to keep up with 20 other people in a classroom. Also because you are one on one with your Thai teacher! I know this because I learned another language in a school. I am having a good time and recommend to anyone who wants to learn Thai on line via Skype to learn it here.
« I highly recommend Mia for learning to speak Thai via Skype. I have tried to learn a new language before and it can be a very overwhelming and sometimes frustrating endeavor, but Mia makes it an easy and enjoyable experience. She speaks excellent English and knows how to explain the differences between the way you would speak in Thai and the way you would speak in English in an easy to understand way. She has structured Thai lessons that are easy to follow and is also flexible in helping you to focus on the things you want to learn. The interactive lessons are excellent because it helps you to feel confident in speaking - and Mia helps you not to feel embarrassed about trying to make new sounds that you may not be comfortable with. It is an excellent Thai language program that I would recommend to anyone!
« Mia is a great Thai teacher. She makes the experience fun and interesting. I am really picking up the street Thai language that is useful for traveling today. Learning Thai this way is the next best thing to being there. "
