Phonics in Bangkok. The first step to reading in English.
Small phonics classes for young children, taught in English by native speakers trained in the British system. Then three levels of English, beginner to advanced, for older children and adults. Five minutes from Lat Phrao MRT.
Older children and adults start with a short placement test. There is nothing to prepare.
Sounds first, then words, then stories.
Twenty six letters. Around forty four sounds.
Taught the way British primary schools teach it.
Phonics gives a child a method for reading. Instead of guessing a word from its shape, they sound it out. Our course teaches the sounds of English letters, how to blend them into words and how to break words into sounds to spell them, in short, active lessons with a native English speaking teacher.
- The sound of each letter
- Two letter sounds such as sh, ch, ee and oo
- Blending sounds to read words
- Breaking words into sounds to spell
- Reading simple sentences aloud
- Forming the letters by hand
When they are ready, three levels of English.
For older children, teenagers and adults, from a first conversation to precise professional English. A short placement test finds the right level.

It all started here, 7 January 2007
22/2 Soi Lat Phrao 21
Five minutes from exit 4
Teaching English in Lat Phrao since 2007.
Kidsangsan Language School opened on 7 January 2007 and is approved by the Thai Ministry of Education. We teach in small classes in a quiet townhouse off Lat Phrao Road, a five minute walk from Lat Phrao MRT, exit 4.
The same building is home to Essential TEFL, our teacher training course, so our teachers work alongside trainers every day.
Every teacher is a native English speaker who holds a British teacher training certificate.
Children copy what they hear, so the sounds they learn from come from a native speaker. Teachers plan each lesson for the people in the room, correct you as you speak and give feedback in the moment. Lessons are observed and teachers get feedback too, the same way we train new teachers on Essential TEFL.
Three steps to the first lesson.
