I want to swing my clubs the more traditional way, swinging them instead of hitting the ball. Do anyone know a good pro in south of Thailand?

Thanks for my good friend Doug.
Assume you're an expat living in Thailand and would like to have an English speaking pro. Say close to where I work, i.e. Sukhumvit and Sathorn area in Bangkok, most of the driving range pro can speak fairly good English. There a driving range in Sukhumvit Soi 26 close to Rama 4, I'm sure all pros there speak English as most customers there are expats, also the driving range on Sathorn in Soi Suan Plu close to Thammasat Alumnai building.
I don't know how far south you are, but if you are top south, at Cha-am there're lots of good golf courses and they have teaching pro. Try the site below. There's a pro call Tony he speaks English better than Thai language. He's one of the most publicise pro in Thailand. The thing is I don't know if he is any good, but he's on TV all the time and he own a golf school so you may even get many other pros from there.
Then again, my own approach for my game from my experiences with pros was that they cost so much. I paid a lot to many pro, but the person who really taught me was my sister and my brother. I could play in around 78-84 or about 6-7 handicap. I met a teaching pro by chance once he was on a driving range and said he used to never hit under 36 for nine holes, but he went on a teaching pro school in Cha-am once and in Bangna at Thanacity (David Leadbetter) once and now he can hit under 36. That's long time ago and said he paid approx 60,000 THB for a course of about a month and a half (full time). They redo hit swing. May be you need that. Good luck.

Try Danai Wattanakorn, USGTF, at the RCA Golf Acadamy in Bangkok. I met him, he's lived in the States, speaks excellent English and has a good reputation as a pro.
If you are headed for the southern part of Thailand, you'll have only a few courses to choose from. The courses in Phuket like Blue Canyon are very expensive about $100. The Bangkok area has many 20-30 dollar courses that are excellent.
