Kru Om is an extremely effective teacher. I have done both his “Thai Starter Pack” and “Conversation for Life Lessons.” In the “Conversation for Life” course, Kru Om maintains a perfect balance between having relaxed, fun conversation practice while pausing to clearly explain language structures, vocab, or particularities about the language. In every lesson we find at least one or two things I take from them to improve my Thai. The “Thai Starter Pack” is also an invaluable resource for anyone wanting to learn to read Thai Script. His step-by-step approach to the written language is better than anything you will find on the internet. By the end of the course, you will be able to start reading Thai, albeit slowly at first. I have taken hundreds of hours of classes in three languages and can assure you that Kru Om is a top tier language teacher.

As an online language teacher myself, I was very impressed. K. Om's pronunciation is clear and he provides clear instructions. I've only had 1 class with him so far but from what I can tell, he teaches the way I like to be taught. Above all... he listens attentively and is able to answer my questions about hypothetical scenarios.

Excellent tutor! I've been learning Thai with the Pimsleur app and coming to Cru Om for clarification, grammar explanation, and pronunciation guidance, also some culture questions. He provides thoughtful responses to all these. His disposition is friendly and frank, with clear explanations. He is able to call on other languages like French to explain specific issues of speaking Thai that make it very clear, and his approach is very effective overall. He's helping me progress through the basics.

I've been stuck just below a conversational level for a while and Om has really helped push me to a point where I'm more comfortable speaking Thai in everyday situations. We do mostly conversation practice but when I have a question about grammar or vocabulary or he notices where I'm making mistakes, he helps me work on all of that. He's able to explain confusing things in a simple way and gives clear examples so I can continue to practice on my own between lessons. Still have a long way to go, but I'm really happy with the progress I'm making. Very good teacher.

I’ve just had my first Thai lesson with Om and came away feeling much more confident about learning the language. He explained consonant classes and tones in a way that finally made sense to me, helping me see how everything fits together. The lesson gave me a clear structure and an understanding of what to practise first. A really encouraging start, and I’m looking forward to continuing lessons with him. Highly recommended!

Om is very knowledgeable. I enjoyed his class. He knows what he's talking about. He teaches in a way. If you understand grammar terms, he's very good. He has definitely studied other languages, so it made it easier for him to relate to certain people and their certain struggles in specific languages they speak when it comes to Thai. Great first class!
