Lesson plans & teaching tools for Thai teachers
Ready-made interactive lessons — dialogues with native audio, tone-colored romanization, self-checking exercises — plus free language tools. Built together with a Thai teacher, so you can spend your evenings teaching, not preparing.
The problem
Teaching Thai online means building everything yourself
Learners get all the apps
Students have endless options. The teachers actually doing the work have almost none.
Prep eats your evenings
Every dialogue, vocabulary list, and worksheet is handmade — again and again, for every student.
Materials for children barely exist
Thai for kids is in huge demand, and there is almost nothing teachers can pick up and use.
The solution
Lessons your students can hear, tap, and practice
Everything below is the real product, not a screenshot. Press play. Tap a word. Toggle the romanization. Hide your lines and role-play.
Dialogues with native-quality audio
Male and female voices, word-by-word meanings on tap, word-spacing for beginners — and a role-play mode that hides one speaker's lines for speaking practice.

Vocabulary with tones your students can see
Romanization follows a consistent learner system; every word is colored by tone and has audio. Here: the same syllable in all five tones.
Exercises that correct themselves
Tap-to-answer — no Thai keyboard needed — with an explanation when the answer is wrong, not just a red border.
Plus a transliteration engine you can use right now
Paste any Thai text and get segmentation, tone-marked romanization, and translation — free, no account:

“Thai for kids” is where teachers need help most
Parents abroad want their children to speak Thai. Teachers tell us the demand is there — the materials aren't. The kids track is built for short attention spans: songs, matching games, picture vocabulary, and no wall-of-text anywhere.
