Pattaya women were given a chance to improve their English-language skills as the city’s Women’s Development Club launched its third course of free lessons.
Mayor Anan Charoenchasri opened the March 1-21 course for 40 students at the Ruan Thai restaurant with Social Welfare Department Chief Panee Limcharoen and Club President Naowarat Khakhay giving the first lectures.
The course covers Basic English development so that students will be able to better communicate with English speakers in their daily lives. Lessons included watching videos to test listening comprehension and pronunciation, basic writing tests and conversation practice.
The club has organized courses in hopes of helping Thailand catch up to its Southeast Asian nations in English proficiency.
