For thai lessons, are the lessons expensive and who or where do you recomend. I would like to learn some Thai.

There are many language schools around Bangkok who run courses. Depends
how much time you have and what you want to spend. There is also a lot of teach yourself courses
you can buy from book stores etc...mostly CD/Book lessons which can teach you the basics at least.

I have found they run between 9,000 and 12,000 Baht for 30 hours of 1-on-1 instruction. Thai Lanugage Hut, Baan Passa Thai, and Smile Lanugage school are three I am considering.

I really want to get the pronunciations right, get some tools for the rest of my trip and lay a foundation for future learning. And to go through the experience.
