Japanese Program
Before going to Japan with the Language School Programme, I studied N4 and N3 level classes at Nolen for a year. The teachers were always dedicated and genuinely cared about each student’s progress. They didn’t just teach the lessons effectively — they created a warm, supportive classroom environment and shared valuable insights into Japanese culture, which were incredibly helpful during my stay in Japan. Their guidance and encouragement kept us motivated and helped us understand the material with confidence.

Thai Program
Overall it has been a quick and steady process of learning Thai. Have been trying different ways to learn thai on my own, but the way your classes and teachers make it interactive is highly satisfying and an easy learning methodology. Will definitely keep learning more.

Thai Program
I am a former student of Pace Forward Myanmar, and after moving to Thailand, I joined the speaking sessions at Pace Forward Thailand. The teachers are incredibly talented and patient, especially when teaching Thai pronunciation, ensuring students can pronounce words correctly like native Thai speakers. Both the English and Thai classes are highly worthwhile, offering effective learning experiences. The class fees are fair, and what I appreciate most is that the program provides discounts for participating in activities and for returning students.

English Program
"In the past, because I only studied with female teachers, I used to feel afraid of learning with a male teacher. I was too shy and anxious, and because of an experience in high school where a teacher criticized my facial expression and voice, I felt embarrassed and lost confidence. That incident made me avoid having male friends and prefer to stay by myself. When I found out that at Pace Forward I would have to study with a male teacher, I was honestly scared. However, Tr. Wai Yan has become not just any teacher in the world, but a special teacher in my world. During lessons, he always smiles, which makes me feel at ease and helps me focus on learning the target lesson without fear. His attitude is so pure and sincere, and he shares all the knowledge he can give. That makes me deeply grateful. He treats me, his female student, with respect, and he patiently listens to my feelings and what I want to learn, helping me improve in every way. Thank you so much, Teacher."

Japanese Program
"When I first wanted to learn Japanese, I began my journey with Nolen, starting from N5. Learning a new language is never easy, but with Nolen’s teaching methods, the process felt smooth and encouraging. Thanks to the professionalism and kindness of Nolen’s teachers, I was able to pass N3. Now, I am studying in Japan, and I truly couldn’t have made it this far without the support of my teachers. What I especially like about Nolen is that you can start from the very basics without worrying about language difficulties. The teachers are patient, dedicated, and always teach with professionalism. Another great point is that Nolen provides their own certificate upon completing courses, which is very helpful when applying to language schools in Japan. Because of this, I always recommend Nolen to my friends and to anyone who wants to start learning Japanese."
