May Kaidee has a vegetarian cooking school, you learn a lot on 4 hours and it is not expensive:http://www.maykaidee.com/
Also the Sheraton Grand Sukumvit organizes cooking classes, but I think they are very expensive

There is one in Chiangmai
Check this www.thaicookeryschool.com

Answered by Fang Wantipa , Bangkok, Thailand
There is another good one, high quality. Check out the Mandarin Oriental Cooking School in Bangkok. http://www.mandarinoriental.com/Bangkok/
I heard the hotel offers the cooking class too.

Answered by Wannisa Piyatrakul , Bangkok, Thailand
Pls check this website 'www.yingsakfood.com' he is very famous in Thailand for any kind of cooking, bakery, thai food and he is good for creating foods, mix this and that it has been new recipe from his program always. However, I checked the web is in Thai but I think this school is professional enough I guess they will provide you with somebody who can train in English. Just give them a call you will know already.
Answered by Kwis Kleepkaeo , Bangkok, Thailand

Answered by Hugo Zimmermann , Sattahip, Thailand
Hi Sarah
I would like to suggest: The best cooking experiences you'll
find with a (real) good Mae Krua (female pro cook).
And in order to undestand from the beginning: Go and make
the shopping of meat, poulty, fish, seafood, vegetables,
ingredients, leaves, sauces, spices, fruits etc. yes even rice (here rice is not all the same) with your "Cook-Chef"!
And then - try it, do it again, over-and-over - it takes
a couple of years to get familiar......
..... finally: Bon appetit ! Enjoy your own prepared
Thai Food.
