Why come to Thailand and study English?

As a student you will have a fantastic holiday in a world class city and learn the English language as well. And when your studies come to an end you will have Thailand's awesome beaches, jungles and culture on your doorstep. You will take away memories that you will treasure for the rest of your life and be ready to return to your work or studies with a sound knowledge of the English language. It's hard to think of a more exciting city in south-east Asia than Bangkok. A country of ancient culture, historic temples, palaces, silks and gems, and charming hospitality, Bangkok is a mixture of East and West. Discovering Bangkok is an adventure in itself. From floating markets to magnificent temples (there are 400 in the city) there is never a shortage of things to do in the City of Angels, in the Land of Smiles. Thanks to a dynamic team and different programmes and levels of lessons, you learn English rapidly and easily while discovering Bangkok. International House is Bangkok's only provider of year round English language holiday courses - offering a world class teaching programme which encourages oral communication and develops confidence. We are the only language school in Bangkok that requires all our teachers to be highly qualified, native speakers.

What's so special about IH Bangkok?

International House Bangkok is not quite like most other language schools. The International House World Organisation has been around longer than most, and we are centrally located in great premises in one of the world's most exciting cities - Bangkok. Our courses are taken by hundreds of students from Thailand and around the world, so at any one time there is a truly international feel to the school... But it's neither that nor the school's location that makes us unique. What does make us stand out from the crowd is the quality of our teaching. We don't just teach language courses, we also train language teachers which includes, of course, our own, to exacting standards. And this is what makes us special...

What level am I?

Whether your language skills are rusty, fluent, or you are an absolute beginner, our tried and tested placement testing system has proven time and again to be effective at finding this out for you. We at International House Bangkok appreciate that being tested for your language ability can initially be intimidating and that's why out testing system is as friendly and informal as possible. Test yourself with our Online Placement Test for English!

If teachers don't speak my language, how can they teach me?

We only use the target language in the classroom. All of our teachers are specially trained to teach you without using your native language.

How do I know International House Bangkok is a good school?

IH Bangkok must meet the rigorous Quality Standards of the IH World Organisation which ensures that the quality of its teaching, resources and most importantly of all, its treatment of its students, is second to none. International House Bangkok has built its reputation not on flashy marketing campaigns but from students who succeed and tell others about us. An external assessor visits our school every two years and conducts a thorough investigation into all aspects of the school's activities. These visits ensure that the unparalleled reputation International House enjoys for the quality of its services is safeguarded.
