TLDR : Answer Summary
The discussion highlights that education visas in Thailand are typically processed through accredited schools or universities rather than agencies. Recommendations include ALA in Sukhumvit for Thai language courses, TSL in Chiang Mai, and RTL-School in Phloen Chit, with positive feedback regarding their programs and support for obtaining an Education Visa.

I spent 4 months studying at
@RTL-S*****
in Phloen Chit and walked out of there speaking Thai well enough to have conversations and eventually became near fluent.

I highly recommend that school and they can help you with your ED visa.

I attend ALA, in trendy building, Sukhumvit 13. I recommend them if you are interested in learning Thai and legitimate visa.. Which means study every day.

Yea, most people seem to just get ED visas and proceed to abuse the system but not actually studying.

Is the visa going to be for legit purposes or are you just looking to get this visa to stay longer?

In that case you go through a school, but that process is likely to take longer than basically paying a bribe with an agent. Personally I would steer clear of agents, once you go down that route you put yourself instantly at risk.

You go through the school/university to sort out education visa not agents

Maybe search the type of school and location you are seeking as a start.

Tiger muay thai used to do education visas in Phuket, not much up on language schools maybe you can post another question.

There has bèen some horror stories of people using agents in Phuket recently with people being deported and banned from entering. Busy at moment when i got time will put all these in an agencies topic.
