I've sent email to a girl(s) at The Classroom but have received no reply. Why not?

The girls get A LOT of email! If they don't actually know who the person that has written to them then there is a 50-50 chance they won't reply. This is mainly due to the expense of translating the message(s) from English to Thai—while many girls do speak good English that's not necessarily the case when it come to reading and writing it.

Are there any other attractions in Pattaya apart from the nightlife?

Hell yes, you name it! Island Boat Trips, Scuba Diving, Wind Surfing, Nong Nooch Village, Numerous International Standard Golf Courses, Elephant Village, Crocodile Farm, Snake Show, Pattaya Water Park, Mini Siam, Ripley's Believe It Or Not at Royal Garden Plaza, Floating Market, Pattaya Under Water World, Shooting Range, Ten-pin bowling, Pattaya Go Kart, Paintball, Bunjy Jumping, to name but a few!

What is a bar fine?

Paying a girl's bar fine allows her to stop working and accompany you wherever you wish. The duration of your relationship depends entirely on you.

If I'm interested in a girl how do I get her attention?

If you're in the bar at the time eye contact and a smile is usually all that is required. Failing that, just ask the Mamasan or a manager for some assistance and things will soon be arranged.
If you're looking at the web site then the best way to make a girl sit up and take notice is a small gift—if that doesn't work then nothing will!

If after taking a Classroom girl I find I'm attracted to another one, will there be a problem?

If you do things sensibly then absolutely not! No girl in the world likes to be dumped for another one, but if you just buy her a drink, quietly tell her you are on holiday and don't want to get serious about anyone and would like to enjoy yourself with another girl then that will be the end of it.

How safe is Pattaya?

Pattaya has a very low crime rate (compared to London it's a walk in the park!) but, as in every big city in the world, you have to use commonsense. Don't flash your money around for all to see; don't walk unaccompanied down dark alleyways! Just be sensible and you'll be safe.

Would learning some Thai words be an advantage?

Thai people will generally be delighted if you have taken the time to learn some of their language. Bar girls are, however, usually less than pleased about someone who can speak Thai well because they prefer guys who are not so "clued up " about the place. Make sure you seek out The Classroom managers for invaluable local knowledge—they are there to help you save time and money.

Can I get credit in The Classroom?

Absolutely no chance!
