they help, i do a lot of self study, and have even learnt some new words since being back, and can now also hold conversations much better than before due to the studying i did when i was back in england, all my friends have been very impressed, but theres still loads i want to learn, its simple enough me asking what a certain word means, but when asking to explain anything more than that they often struggle to be able to do it in english

Get them to explain in khmer. It will seem hard at first, but you'll find that you'll stop using English quite soon.

all my khmer friends speak to me in mostly khmer so its good practice and how i learn

Jamie about a year or so ago I studied one on one with a teacher that works at Don Bosco. He was good, and helped me a lot. I think I paid monthly, but if I remember correctly it came out to about maybe three dollars an hour or so. His email is [email protected].

I also studied with Mr. Bunly who has a translation service across from Cabbage garden restaurant. Those weren't one on one, but he might offer that too. Also good priced. Both good guys and pretty funny/familiar with foreigners.

You could also just show up to my wife's family's house with some beers, they will speak to you, at you, and about you until you've had enough. Repeat as necessary.

yes someone also recommended Sambo to me, i will drop him a message tomorrow thanks

I will teach you for 15 dollar per hour, but after lesson we go to bar and i buy you five shots of tequila. Deal or no deal. I guarantee that people would impress with your khmer but make sure you only talk to people you know.

5 shots of tequila before one hour lesson should be okay. I might can teach you better when i am tipsy.
