I agree, David's book is a good one. I even had a Thai teacher check it out and it received the highest rating from her. Hi Kevin, 2010 was a weird year for me. The insomnia kicked my butt and took charge so I just went along for the ride. But I'm still here. Still pounding away. I have not quit. Hi William, I’m not sure how I missed your comment.

I will follow your advice, even though it has nothing to do with learning a new language. I guess the basics are the same for forming a new hobby, whether it's about studying or exercising. so how was the 30 day challenge for last year. did you keep it up and did it become a habit after 30 days? this new year is coming soon and I also have to develop some habits this year.

I have been to Thailand Twice (spent a total of six months in the country, while I was there I bought lots of learning material (the best book so far is by David Smyth Teach Yourself Thai)As well as being an English Teacher I have an idea how to teach, start with the small stuff, numbers one to a hundred, days of the week, months of the year etc, download to your cell phone and replay the sound files when you have a moment, I have learnt a lot using this method and it works, when you have learnt how to pronounce what you have learnt start learning how to write the language. It's such a simple language and very easy to learn. Good Luck! Let me give you guys a hint (how to learn Thai)Don’t wait to get to Thailand before you start!

First of all, I have been extremely lax in learning Thai over the past year almost to the point of laziness. With a new child on the way and the imminent move to Thailand I know that this needs to change and pronto! My first resolution then is to work harder at learning Thai. I will schedule 1 hour each day for study and stick to this schedule…a personal appointment with myself. Thankfully Catherine was a step ahead of me when she posted 30 Days to Successful Thai Language Learning.

I guess I'll have to ask Golf to teach me some lullabies. It should be really good to help my pronunciation and tones too. Thanks Cat! Not a bad idea.
