ORIGINAL POSTERTLDR : Answer Summary
The user is seeking recommendations for an authorized school to take Thai classes in order to obtain a DTV visa, which requires a cultural activity. However, responses indicate that learning Thai alone does not qualify for the DTV visa. Unlike activities such as Muay Thai or cooking classes, learning Thai is not recognized as a valid cultural activity for this visa type. Some users suggest enrolling in programs that include Thai culture or civilization. Additionally, references to other visa types like the ED visa are made, which may allow for a longer stay in Thailand.
