English Program

English Program

Bunyawat Witthayalai School set up its English Program in 2003 with the help and guidance of the Department of General Education as a way to address the growing needs for intensive English-language instruction and to comply with the continuing educational reform agenda now in progress to enhance Thai students' English proficiency.

The pilot program aims to:

1.Produce students with an adequate command of the English language both as a communication tool, and as a way to open the doors to an expanded knowledge base.

2.Produce students who are capable of using English as a medium to develop their thought processes, analytical skills, and logical problem-solving skills, together with improving their self-confidence and sense of belonging to a regional and global community.

3.To create a model for other Thai schools to follow in developing their own English teaching methods and programs.
