1. Can you learn Thai in 3 months?
2. Can you learn Thai in one year?
3. How long does it take to learn Thai with Learn Thai Like a Local?

Good question! But the answer to this question “How long does it take to learn Thai?” really depends on the pace of the learner and how you learn it.

Normally Thai learners take class 1-2 times per week. From beginner to intermediate levels, it takes around 20-25 hours with focus only on the useful vocabs (at least 400 words) for speaking and listening Thai to reach the intermediate level.

The time you spend on learning may not be a lot but the time you spend on trying to remember what you learn, use them now and then and really come to the point that you have enough basic and confidence to speak Thai out outside of the class would take more than that as it really depends on each learner.

To create a fast track for yourself, review what you learn and use them whenever you have a chance.

Can you learn Thai in 3 months?

The answer is yes. But it would be pretty tight. Within 3 months, you can learn speaking and listening Thai for 20-25 hours within 2.5-3 months by learning 2 hours per week constantly.

2 hours per week is actually a good amount as it is not too little and not too much. This way you have time during the week to review what you have learned through those 2 hours as well.

However, if you want to learn not just listen and speak Thai but also write and read Thai, within 3 months you have to learn 4 classes per week. It would definitely be too tight. You may manage to learn everything but maybe not remember most of them as everything is so rushed. 

My recommendation: if you want to learn all skills efficiently, 3 months may not be enough. 6 months sound more reasonable and gives you more chance to have some joy during the learning process as well.

Can you learn Thai in one year?

That’s even better. If you manage to learn Thai 1 time per week for 50 hours, you will manage all skills from beginner to intermediate level within one year. But this means learning Thai every week constantly for a year. Of course you can adjust it a bit to your schedule, 1-2 times per week and take a break where needed. 

Definitely not too long a break, otherwise you could forget what you learn too easily. This way, video records while learning could be a pretty good tool for you to review what you have learned by yourself as well.
