About Me

InterestsHistoryTravelEnvironment & NatureFoodReading
I am from the southern part of Thailand, fluent in both Thai and English. I am a Ph.D. student in engineering in the US. As a lifelong language learner, I love learning languages to explore new cultures, people, and places. Chinese (Mandarin), Spanish, Vietnamese, and French are my target languages. I have struggled with learning new languages but have discovered many effective methods to improve my skills. I have a good grasp of pronunciation in languages, which I view as the most important component in fluency. I will encourage you to speak and promptly correct pronunciation mistakes. 你好,我叫Don。我的中文名字是【荘俊雄】。我的中文水平是中级。我很愿意帮你学泰语。 *Students must be at least 16 years old. This section will be removed soon.

Kru Don is an excellent teacher. He speaks Thai clearly; he speaks at a normal conversational rate which is important to hear, but he can speak slower if needed. His English is post- graduate level so he can explain anything in English if needed. He can adjust topics so the classes are interesting and applicable to your goals. He takes notes so you have something to review after the class. Therefore, I highly recommend Kru Don.

Very helpful Thai conversation class. Kru Don gave me feedback and helped me form sentences. We talked about various topics in a free flowing conversation and he explained new vocab. I can recommend him 100% 😊🙏

Don is very well-organized. He also helps you with note-taking which is great in my opinion because the note is more accurate making it easier to review the lesson. He also adjusts the pace according to your level and switches up the topics so the lesson is interesting.

The lesson with Don was very helpful. He addressed exactly the things I needed and gave great examples. We practiced pronouncing words properly and Don was very patient and he kind of gave me an idea how the graphemes are put together and how this relates to the reading, which is very helpful for a total beginner like me, that didn't have any prior knowledge of the language. :) Thank you, Don! :)
