Thinking of getting someone to tutor me in Thai. My Thai is roughly "pre-intermediate". I am wondering what is important in a tutor. For example, I wonder how important it is to have someone who has tutored other people before. Also how important is it that they be fluent in English? I teach at a University in Bangkok so I could get a student but they wouldn't have much experience. I might find a faculty member but they might expect too much money, and might teach very formal language. What is the going rate, 200 baht/hour? 250? Well, if you have had a tutor that worked out for you, please let me know your thoughts. I'd rather avoid having to start with the wrong person and then have to quit on them...

I'm trying to study Thai on my own but I think it is futile unless I have someone to help me practice. However, my schedule is crazy and I really don't want to join a school and spend a lot of money. Does anyone have any suggestions on where I can go to meet people to practice my thai (in a more formal way) or would anyone like to exchange English lessons for Thai lessons? You can email or respond to this post. Thank you in advance for all the help.
