TLDR : Answer Summary

The conversation discusses the legitimacy and potential misuse of the ED visa for long-term stay in Thailand, specifically for learning the Thai language. The user inquires about recommended language schools, leading to suggestions such as Duke Language School and Sandee Thai Language School, with a note about Duke having a waiting list for beginners.

I always spend a couple of hours a week talking to the bar girls in Thai. Duke has created a monster in me.

Duke Language School is the best. But they often have a waiting list for beginner level. Contact them to coordinate when you should travel to Thailand in accordance with beginning your studies.

I went there personally. You will learn Thai even if you don't want to. But you need to be prepared for 3 hours per day, 5 days per week.
