TLDR : Answer Summary
The post seeks recommendations for language schools and visa agents for online Thai language classes. Comments suggest Alpha Language School in Chalong as an option, but caution about the difficulty of obtaining an ED visa for purely online courses. Advice is also given on learning strategies and the importance of understanding Thai tones and writing.

Not the answer to your question but here's my two bob's worth. Learn to read and write unless you have a brilliant "ear" for language and a great memory. Tone and vowel length are what makes Thai difficult for Westerners. Also the different sounds of some Thai letters. When you can read it you can pronounce it. If you want to know my strategy for getting your head round the alphabet and letter groups send me a message. Free of course.

Getting an ED visa for a pure online learning course will be hard to realize / not legal. Then again, TIT, there is always a way.
