Becoming literate in Thai is the crucial first step for speaking Thai, and eventually becoming a fluent communicator. Being able to speak Thai opens up the world for you in Thailand. Many Thai people are shy, but they will be attracted to you if you can converse in Thai. Even if they know some English, they prefer to be able to fall back on Thai, especially if they want to hang out with their friends as well. It's also good for business, even if you are in an English environment. You will have a better idea of what your staff and colleagues are thinking and be able to get your ideas across more directly - and accurately - than if you rely on bilingual go-betweens. If you work in a school or environment where it's all Thai then you won't be so isolated and will start to make friends amongst your colleagues and their friends more readily than before. And you'll be surprised at how much more cheaply you can live in Thailand once you can read and communicate in Thai. You will easily save several times more than the cost of the course. Utlimately, living in Thailand is so much more fun when you can speak and understand Thai. Instead of being cloistered in the safe-but-dull 'farang-friendly' zones, you can discover the hidden byways and clubs and organizations normally reserved only for Thais. You have the freedom to go where you want and with whom you like. And you can make friends with anybody if there is no awkward language barrier.
