TLDR : Answer Summary
The inquiry focuses on the latest Education Visa (Ed Visa) programs available in Bangkok or Pattaya, especially in sports and language learning. Community comments reflect skepticism about the intent behind enrolling in educational programs, discuss the current status of language centers due to COVID-19, and express interest in available sports programs.

right now there is only Muay Thai and hand-2-hand combat that are approved by the MOE for an ED visa to study.

You can be a monk study buddhism and get an ED visa plus you get to wear those snazzy orange clothes too ๐Ÿ˜‰

I just learned of a language school called Duke. They provide an online program that has an Ed Visa. I'm still looking into the cost and duration.

Chiang Mai University Language Institute as a program as well.

Duke is awesome, but super intense. A lot of time commitment. I would suggest ALA instead

Tiger muay thai in Phuket and maybe Khoa Lak as well is good and will help with visa.

Just stick to the covid extension as long as you can. They should get you into January, then worry about an ED visa. Language centers are still closed.

I think the real questions are;

are you actually looking to learn something? ๐Ÿ˜ฎ

OR

are you just going to enroll in a school, pretend to learn and milk it for the ED visa ?

Given you don't seem all that particular about what you would study, I will go under the premise that it's the second question ๐Ÿ˜›
