Somtawin, school... Is it best choice for my kids ?

Post by archimed »

Well, have kids under 10 year old, speak fluent english and Thai...

What is te choice of international school in area ?

I would go and see for a visit in a few days...

Just read a bad comment about one teacher in Somtawin, tried to paste it in here, but my low account of post does not allow me this choice yet...

Thanks for advice,if any...

There are no international schools in Hua Hin.

You may find more info on what is available here:

Or read the many threads on schooling on the forum.

My daugthers 3 years old, in 25 kids class actually and the 9 year old is in a class of 50 kids !

Decent and possible to teach correctly, the class should not include more then 20 Kids, any of this 2 schools kid count report ?

Maybe a good idea to give them a quick call and get all the info first hand!

Far as I know Thai schools tend to be 40+ kids per class, while more farang-oriented ones aren't. I'm pretty sure Somtawin (English side) has no classes 25+ and the same is probably true at Yamsaard.

You might want to have a look at http://somtawin.ac.th as that seems to be the new site with contact details etc if you still need to talk to anyone at the school.
