Intensive Thai Language Courses in Chiang Mai
Finally, an intensive Thai language course in Chiang Mai. This course is unique and exclusive to Thai Teacher Chiang Mai and we are very excited about this. We aim to provide the best Thai language course in Chiang Mai that is both educational, fun and provides a solid foundation for language learning that yields long-lasting results.
Learn Thai Language Through Hypnotherapy, Total Physical Response & Mindfulness Immersion
Unique to Thai Teacher Chiang Mai which differentiates us from the many other private Thai teachers and Thai language schools in Chiang Mai.
During the course, we work in conjunction with experienced Hypnotherapist Brett Thornton founder of Chiang Mai Counseling and Counselling Thailand.
Total Physical Response, Hypnotherapy & Mindfulness Immersion can help with Thai language learning in the following ways:
Reduce Stress: Physical, mental and emotional tension can be a huge barrier to language learning so by being in a calm state of mind to make it easier for your mind to absorb and learn new information.
Increase Motivation: Many people start language learning very excited but then will drastically reduce or stop learning altogether. When this occurs, we often find that students duplicate this behaviour in other areas of their lives. Increasing motivation and decreasing procrastination go hand in hand. Hypnotherapy is proven to help combat this and combined in a fun and learning environment help maintain enthusiasm.
Improve Memory: Not just the words themselves and not always the accent but more the sounds and pronunciation. This is particularly important for learning Thai language the tones which many of the words to the western ear sound, not just similar but exactly the same.
Reduce Fear & Anxiety: Past attempts or negative experiences of language learning, making mistakes and feeling disheartened can block a student’s ability to learn. By combining Total Physical Response, Hypnotherapy and Mindfulness Immersion is a fantastic approach to overcome this.
“Hypnotherapy is not a magic cure for people to learn Thai language fluently without effort. Learning any language takes time and practice. Hypnosis is a relaxed state of mind that allows people to receive and recall relevant information and improve the way people learn. At Counseling Thailand, we often combine CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) with hypnosis with a direct focus on eliminating the negative thoughts and core beliefs that are hindering student progress to learning new languages. We really enjoy working with students and other teachers and practitioners at Thai Teacher Chiang Mai and thoroughly recommend their Thai language courses “
