Thai for Beginners

I am also learning Japanese and Thai! And yes, I was also looking for the "Genki/Quartet/Tobira" Thai equivalent lol. Maybe the Thai for Beginners, Thai for Intermediate Learners, & Thai for Advanced Learners. I talked to people who took Thai in university, and many of them did not follow a strict textbook. The professors usually made their own resources and the students learned that way, for example this is through Northern Illinois University, they followed the resources here. People also learn through their local Thai Buddhist temple and I'm sure they have their own resources as well. I personally followed these steps to reach basic conversation. I followed resources online and used books that elementary students in Thailand use to learn Thai. Getting a tutor helps a lot too, I was able to progress much quicker with one. Best of luck!
