Question 1

How do I start teaching English online in Thailand without a school?

Accepted Answer

You do not need a language school or agency to teach independently in Thailand. Suriya creates your own branded booking platform where students find your availability, select lesson types like conversation practice or IELTS prep or business English, and pay upfront via PromptPay or card. Share your booking link on LINE, Instagram, or Facebook groups for expats and Thai professionals. Most independent teachers on Suriya reach fifteen regular students within their first six weeks by sharing one link consistently.

Question 2

Can I teach multiple languages or levels from one app?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Create separate lesson types for each language and level combination. For example you can offer Thai for beginners, Thai intermediate conversation, English IELTS preparation, English business writing, and Japanese N3 prep — each with its own price, duration, and description. Students browse your full offering and book the specific lesson they need. Your calendar shows all bookings colour-coded by type so you can see your teaching mix at a glance without any confusion between subjects.

Question 3

What if students cancel at the last minute?

Accepted Answer

You define your own cancellation policy and Suriya enforces it automatically at the system level. Most language teachers set a twenty-four-hour cancellation window where students receive a full credit toward a future session. Same-day cancellations forfeit the lesson from their package or charge a cancellation fee you specify. No awkward conversations about money — the policy is shown clearly when students book and they accept the terms before paying. Last-minute cancellations drop by seventy percent once a clear policy exists.

Question 4

How do lesson packages work compared to single bookings?

Accepted Answer

Single bookings charge per session at your standard rate, for example six hundred baht for a sixty-minute conversation class. Packages bundle sessions at a discount — ten lessons for four thousand five hundred baht instead of six thousand at the individual rate. Students purchase the package upfront and sessions are deducted as they attend. The system tracks remaining sessions and sends renewal reminders when two sessions remain. Package buyers commit financially which means fewer no-shows and predictable monthly revenue for you.

Question 5

Do I need to handle my own website or domain?

Accepted Answer

No. Suriya generates a professional booking page hosted on suriya.ai with your branding, lesson descriptions, pricing, and real-time availability. You share one link — that is your entire online presence. Students see your teaching profile, browse available slots, pick their lesson type, and pay in under two minutes. If you want a custom domain like krumin.com later, Suriya supports that on the paid plan. But most teachers find the default branded page converts students just as effectively without any technical setup required.
