There are also shopping malls, numerous ATMs, restaurants and mobile-phone shops.There are many websites with comprehensive information about Pattaya and Jomtien.

Student-centred learning allows students to participate and debate in classes and workshops, and offers the chance to develop public speaking and presentation skills. Building confidence is an asset for whatever future career is chosen.
