Private Thai Coaching is for learners who want personalised support and are ready to commit to learning Thai with intention and consistency. It’s especially suited to those who value clarity, encouragement, and long-term progress — whether you’re starting from scratch or you’ve studied Thai before but still hesitate to speak or trust yourself with the language.

This coaching is not about rushing or memorising phrases. It’s about building understanding step by step, in a way that feels supportive, realistic, and aligned with your life. Many learners come to private coaching feeling stuck, unsure, or lacking confidence — and this space is designed to help you move through that gently, with guidance and reassurance along the way.

As a private coaching student, you’ll receive weekly homework and guided practice tailored specifically to you. These are designed to help you stay connected with Thai between sessions, deepen your understanding, and build confidence through small, meaningful steps — without feeling overwhelmed. Your learning continues throughout the week, not just during your one-hour session.

You’ll also have full access to the Learning Hub and private community, giving you extra structure, learning materials, and ongoing support beyond your one-to-one lessons. The Learning Hub helps you revise, practise, and reflect at your own pace, while the community offers a safe, encouraging space to ask questions, share progress, and stay motivated alongside others who are walking a similar path.

Every 12 weeks, we’ll take time to review your progress through an assessment. This isn’t about pressure or pass/fail — it’s about clarity and reflection. Together, we’ll look at what’s working well, where you’re growing, and what needs adjusting so your learning continues to move forward in a way that feels right for you.

Private coaching works best for learners who are willing to show up regularly, engage with the process, and trust that real language confidence is built over time. If you’re looking for a quick fix, this may not be the right fit. But if you’re ready for a steady, meaningful journey — one that builds real confidence, understanding, and connection with Thai — private coaching offers the support and structure to help you get there.

Private Thai Coaching sessions are £30 per hour, with a commitment of one 60-minute session each week. This steady weekly structure is intentional — it gives you the space to absorb, practise, and build confidence gradually, rather than rushing or feeling overwhelmed. Over time, this consistency leads to real understanding and natural progress in Thai.

There is also a one-time registration fee of £150, which gives you full access to the Learning Hub and private community for as long as you remain an active private coaching student. Inside the Learning Hub, you’ll find structured learning materials, guided resources to support your weekly lessons, and tools to help you revise, reflect, and practise between sessions. This means your learning doesn’t stop when your lesson ends — you’re supported throughout the week, at your own pace.

The private community gives you a safe, encouraging space to stay connected, ask questions, share progress, and learn alongside others who are on a similar journey. Many students find this especially valuable, as it reminds them they’re not learning alone and helps keep motivation high during the quieter moments of the learning process.

The registration fee ensures you begin your coaching journey fully equipped, supported, and connected, rather than relying on one-hour sessions alone. It allows me to provide a more complete learning experience — one that combines personalised coaching, guided resources, and ongoing encouragement.

Private coaching works best for learners who are ready to commit, show up consistently, and invest in themselves. This fee structure reflects the level of care, preparation, and long-term support involved, and helps ensure that private coaching remains a focused, supportive space for students who are serious about building lasting confidence in Thai.

Your weekly private coaching session will be agreed during your Induction Session, giving you a fixed day and time reserved just for you. This dedicated slot is yours alone, a space where you can focus completely on your Thai learning and feel supported as you build consistency, confidence, and momentum.

To secure your sessions, you’ll pay for 5 tutoring sessions in advance, and an invoice will be sent every 5 weeks. This advance payment helps both of us plan your learning journey thoughtfully, so each lesson builds on the last and moves you steadily toward your goals. It also creates a gentle rhythm and structure, helping you stay consistent and see real progress over time.

Each lesson is thoughtfully prepared in advance around your individual needs, goals, and current level. Because this preparation is done specifically for you, I don’t offer cancellations, and if you arrive late, the missed time can’t be made up. This helps ensure that every session stays focused, fully prepared, and runs smoothly — while also respecting the learning time of other students.

If you need to reschedule, please provide at least 48 hours’ notice, and I’ll do my best to offer another slot. Sessions cancelled with less than 48 hours’ notice cannot be rescheduled, as your lesson time and preparation have already been set aside especially for you. This policy helps protect your learning journey, the time, care, and effort that go into preparing your lessons, and allows me to support committed learners with consistency and fairness.

Even when you take a holiday, your weekly tuition continues, but you can make up any missed hours when you return, so your learning momentum isn’t lost. If you’d like to keep your usual slot while away, we’ll make sure it’s reserved for you. These guidelines create rhythm, structure, and accountability — all of which help you build steady, lasting progress and confidence in using Thai.

If at any point you feel private coaching isn’t right for you, you can end your coaching with just one week’s notice. While your access to the Learning Hub and community will be closed, we completely understand that circumstances change. This policy helps us continue to offer personalised support and dedicated time to each learner actively on their journey.

If you ever wish to return to private coaching in the future, you’re always welcome back — simply reenrol and pay the registration fee again. This ensures that when you return, we can provide the same level of care, planning, and focus that makes private coaching so effective.

Private Thai Coaching begins by filling out the request form below, where you’ll be invited to share a little about your background, your goals, and most importantly, your why for learning Thai. This isn’t about having the “right” answers — it’s about understanding what truly matters to you and how private coaching can best support your journey. Your why is important because learning a language takes time, consistency, and courage. When I’m clear on what’s driving you, I can shape your lessons in a way that feels meaningful, motivating, and aligned with your real life — not just your textbook.

Once I receive your request, I’ll be in touch within 24 hours (or by Monday if your request comes in over the weekend). If it feels like a good fit, I’ll invite you to book an Induction Session. This first session is a relaxed, supportive conversation where we get to know each other, clarify your goals, and agree on your weekly coaching time.

During the Induction Session, we’ll also talk through how private coaching works, what to expect as a one-to-one student, and how we’ll structure your learning so it feels steady, clear, and achievable.

Before applying, I invite you to read through what Private Thai Coaching is about and reflect on whether you’re ready for the commitment. Private coaching works best when both teacher and student are aligned and fully invested in the journey.

Private coaching is best suited for learners who are here for the long haul. Many of my private students have been learning with me for five years or more, and some for nearly a decade. If you’re ready to show up consistently, stay curious, and build real confidence in Thai, I’d love to hear from you.
